Your videos are cont-inulously helpful. I thought about looking at the new presets but wound up blowing them away after the upgrade.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 thanks scott! They're not lost if you want to try them out!
I went through this exercise the other night. I'll swap out some of my current ones for these. Nice work Line 6!
They crushed it!
Good shout out to John Cordy. I watch his Channel regularly, very informative and great legato technique. 😎
I started importing some of the new Presets into my old HX Stomp Setlist. I then decided part way through that I'd get more benefits and fix some of the old mistakes I made if I imported my best Presets into the new 3.50 Update. This is made easier by using the "extract" features that come with HX Edit.
I can then switch out an old Cab Block for a new one, and take advantage of the substantial DSP savings. Or, I can replicate my settings in a new Preset.
I’m loving the update, I plug into 2 power cabs with the L6 cable thing, my neighbors hate me but I hate them more so it works out.
Its a beautiful thing!
Thank you. You confirmed that I was actually hearing Fac Preset improvements. Of course we have to find the sounds that match our style but I think L6 did a great sevice revamping the Factory Presets. I was successful in using some the templates also.
Never thought of exploring the fac presets to find the blocks I like but great tip.
And the fac presets sound good especially with the new cabs.
yeah man! try some out and see if you can use them
Really digging that semi hollow @steve 😮 great playing
The cali Texas from factory 1 is now the clean ton on my Country rectifier preset. I was blown away by the new cabs.
Also, make sure you backup the computer you save this stuff to! Great stuff as usual, Steve.
Thanks for showing how to do this!
lol Cordy, that massive continuous! He may beat you too it, but still enjoyed this Steve 👍🏻
Thank you David!
I saw John’s video and installed the new presets. They sound great! Like you, until I saw John’s video, I had no idea the new presets were available with V3.50. 😂
I found out first, then saw Johns video as I was getting ready to film 🤣🤣🤣 I DIDNT STEAL THE IDEA!!!
I updated my Helix to 3.5 the other day. Didn't even think to try and update the factory presets. Haven't played any of them for years and I don't recognise some of these. Just done the whole reset and am looking forward to going through and seeing what's what.
Nice edit Steve!😜
Hey Steve thanks so much for this video! I tried to load the new presets on to my hx stomp but for some reason they are not loading. They just have the old ones. I'm not getting the drop down arrow on my preset list? Do you have any advice?
Trev Lukathers artist preset was added in the 3.0 update.
Richie Castellanos was added in 3.0 as well.
Theres a ton of artists presets that were added in 3.0.
I do remember them being added, but as I said this is my first exploration of them!
I feel like this happens from time to time, I always backup the factory presets separately in addition to a full Helix backup, in case I ever want to browse their stuff again. I also save the presets I like to another setlist (you can save them to an internal folder on your computer if your device doesn't have setlists) so I don't lose them during an update.
Thank you for showing us this! George Amodei
Thanks for watching George!
Steve, When I did the update. I followed the instructions and created the back up , did the update but I restored my full back up which would have over written the updated factory presets. Should I do a factory reset and only bring in my built presets?
I have the Stomp, tried to reset with the fs2+fs3 and got nothing...
Cool videos
15:29 There was a Scottish band called Big country in the 80's, I think it's modelled after them.
Yea the new ones are great.. as long as they are using the new cabs. Not sure how many are - or aren’t?
All interesting👏👍… Big Country a bit surprising though 😅
Hey buddy. I've been looking for a video and can't find any information on it. Wondering if you could possibly make a quick video about how to make a super rig by using the HX Stomp and Helix hooked together? Like I know it may sound unnecessary but I have been talking to other people who use both like me, and they would also like to make a super rig too. Maybe one into the front of the other or in the FX loop, witch unit into which, the order and such. I understand if you're unable to help. But if you could make a quick video about it I know you would be the first and a lot of people would probably be interested in it. Thanks buddy. Keep up the great work.
Question: If you do a simple upgrade on 3.5, the new fac presets are not included, right? You need to do the renew of factory setting, right?
L6 always advises a factory reset after updating. I would follow those instructions
Seems those D’Angelifaux guitars are catching on. Keep seeing more and more people with them.
This is actually a prototype run they did at the Heritage plant. They were gonna try to make all USA series there, but it never worked out. This is 1 of 6 that they did as a trial
Hey Steve, Great videos! Question...Just received my new Helix floor today. Updated to 3.5...my factory 1 preset settings don't look like yours. They seem to have additional stuff. Why is that??? Any help appreciated.
I assume you're on the latest version of everything 🤔 idky you would see anything different if its brand new. Did it ask you to create a backup and restore when you updated?
@@SteveSterlacci Thanks Steve for responding....Greatly appreciated! I performed a factory reset post firmware update 3.5 and BINGO looks like everybody elses...Now I'm starting from scratch...Love my 40w Hot Rod Deluxe so trying the 4 cable method...anywho thanks again and keep rockin!!! Don't see many videos on how folks like yourself set things up in your studios..Monitors, DAWS etc.. would be cool to see! Peace
I'm using HX Stomp and Helix Edit.....I upgraded to 3.50 ok, got the new amps etc but.....I've got no new Presets just the old FX, Dir, ACO, Bass, Key. Does anyone know why I didn't get these?
Hello, how are you? I have a Helix Floor and I play in line at my church, we don't use real Amps there. I would like to know if to play it in line directly on the PA table, do we have to make any changes to the Helix output, or can I simply plug it into the output and play it directly on the table... Is there any configuration that improves the sound, since there is no Do I have a real amplifier??? Thank you very much and say hello to Brazil... Hugs!!!!
Hello! I have a whole series of tips and videos on this subject. As long as your XLR is set to MIC level, you should be fine to go direct
Yeah they sound a lot better , saw Cordy's vid other day and reinstalled them !
Good on ya!
Does anyone besides me noticed that on the new update there is a pause between channel selections?
I’m impressed that it seems you didn’t research the sounds at all before showing us them, and about half the video was you testing presets that already existed since 3.0
Not sure if this is sarcastic. But thanks either way 🤣🤣🤣 i like to wing things 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
@@SteveSterlacci a bit sarcastic, just having the helix guide would help the videos be more informative. your video was fun to watch. Based on the title and talking it up, I really wanted to see the comparisons between old/new and more of the new presets played with.
There’s still a bunch of legacy ones, but the new amp presets are fun to hear you play with.
I noticed every time I update the Helix…my settings change. i.e snapshot/stomp settings, line-in etc
What’s the point of backing up if the updates change all of that ?
No idea. Its usually the basic global settings that are easy to double check
For those of us that have a day job and don’t have time to create a bunch of presets- out of the box presets that are recordable is very much wanted!!
@dannyplaysguitar of course I can! But the Helix should have gig ready presets already in there. Why should I have to spend $1500 on a Helix then go buy third party presets? I guess I just don’t have a lot of time these days!
So.if I have already.did the update can.i just restore with button 7n 8 will this bring up 3.5 factory presets and overide my present ones
It wont over write. When you factory reset, it erases everything and installs factory lists. Its then up to you to re-import your backup. You can select which folders like in the video and xhoose to keep the new ones
@@SteveSterlacci so of I have my old factory presets with new 3.5 update will.restoring factory presets bring 3.5 (new ones) or the ones I have now from previous update, im trying not to have to redo whole update again ill screw it up in a sec lol
@@SteveSterlacci I got it steve work beautifully thsnk you bro im sending some gratitude on thank you button your awesome bro
After updating to 3.50, I do not have the Factory Presents starting with the US Double Nrm. Do you have any idea?
Do you have hx stomp or helix?
@@SteveSterlacci I have the HX Stomp.
@Patrick Karl Videograf so you need to do a factory reset, do not install your backup (since it will overwrite the current factory presets) and you can try them out and export them. Then install your backup. Also, I think L6 put them on customtone or something for this very reason
@@SteveSterlacci Thank you for your time. I will try so.
@@pk_videograf no problem. Check the forums and see if others posted those links
the first 40 or so presets are all new in factory1 They sound so much better
Any tips on getting the levels right so I don’t clip?
Yes! There's a whole video on it on my channel. Also see the "6 mistakes to avoid using the helix" vid i posted
I have to get another Helix currently just using the HXFX.
Get an HX Stomp for a backup!
@@SteveSterlacci definitely in a week or two!!
Exactly Witch Buttons did you hold down, while turning the power back on?
Middle on the bottom row. Its in all the instructions too!
I looked it up and found the answer. Thank you anyway for getting back to me.
You do a great job with the videos, keep it up!
13:36 it sounds like doctor who theme music
i have the helix stomp xl ..there doesnt seem to be this option and the software is 3.50 too..am i being dumb?
Stomp doesn't use folders like the helix.... you would have to explore the new presets after the factory reset and export them, then restore your backup, then import the presets you liked
Thank you for asking this. I was wondering myself
@@SteveSterlacci thanks :-)
How do you access that folders factory 1 and 2?? On mine device there's no those folders
Do you have helix or hx stomp?
@@SteveSterlacci yes. Hx stomp. But on mine device just appears setlist. I bought yesterday and i have no backup yet. I would like to have those factory folders
@@SteveSterlacci i dont have that preset trev lukather solo . Where do i find it??
@@guilhordas did you do the reset instructions I do in the video? Where you uncheck factory 1 and 2 on reset?
@@SteveSterlacci i did and theres no those presets like yours. There others. Not those ones
Is posible in the HX stomp?
You have to factory reset, try them, export any that you like, then import them into blank presets
Just restored the factory presets but nothing happened? It just standed still
Did u factory reset again and uncheck the boxes?
@@SteveSterlacci Thanks for the reply! Totally forgot to press down button 7 and 8 on restart. All good now!
And don’t forget- a number of the factory presets had more than one snapshot.
Kinda bummed... I upgraded to 3.5, but have the old crappy presets. 🙁
Steve shows a backup & a partial restore here! If the new presets are bundled with 3.5, why is he backup/restoring?!?!?
You have to back up and restore after every update as per line 6s instructions. The hx stomp doesn't give the option to not overwrite the new presets. So you have to manually export them BEFORE you install your backup
Nice edit lol. 0:25
He is isn't he!?
0:24 and that's how you do it
How well does that work?
What do you mean?
@Steve Sterlacci hahaha sorry I'd have ro watch the video again but I have an appointment. I just got my helix yesterday. It sounds incredible.
I actually had to Reset to the 3.5 presets because I immediately reloaded my own backup, just so I could go through them and then load mine again after saving the "Setlist Folders" the thing is I DON'T see the hype or hear much of a difference and even the new stuff is just "more of the Same" to me. nothing that wouldn't be done from before the update. or maybe I'm missing something and I would need to "Redo" all my patches ? I'm not that ambunctious ! lol.
Big Country is probably the song In A Big Country by of course...Big Country
Is that what it sounds like?!
give it a listen... ruclips.net/video/daeqb6f7GrY/видео.html
@@klrbee03 idk if thats the same tone 😳
It's similar to some of their EBow stuff.
LMAO
Sounding great too !
I cunt...tinuously watch your videos. Thank you.
😉😉😉 thanks!
John Cordy's a what?🤣
You heard me
your funny
It's too bad that with such a great overall update Line 6 kinda (IMHO) botched the rollout. From a "technology in 2022" perspective their update process isn't hard but it's annoying and a bit tedious. And in this case you have these seriously great tweaked factory presets that A) weren't mentioned and B) require a bit of update hopscotch in order to load them but keep your custom stuff that was saved in the backup. I'm super appreciative of the free updates, but the rollouts have room for improvement. Now I'm probably going to get wrecked by the Helix police for providing this fair and well-intended criticism.
I think its hard to pull off 2022 level of updates in 2015 level hardware. Think about if you didnt upgrade your cell phone for 7 years how it would react to the new firmwares. I am not making excuses by any means, but I think its okay to cut a little slack on this older piece of tech thats still getting premium upgrades... I see where it could be easier for sure though! But I assume its not possible or as easy as we want it to be
@@SteveSterlacci Uggh, Steve....you're such a cun--tinuous source of fairness and positivity. 🙂
It was really easy for me.
Just fired up an HX edit, it told me that there is an update to the HX Edit and an update for my Helix so clicked ok, It told me to backup my current preset so clicked on create backup and it did it for me, then proceeded to update and it all updated by itself after that.
Then it instructed me to perform a factory backup and it even told me how to do that so I just followed through.
EZ
@@englishiowa I do my best! LOL
@@chl3224 Yup -- that's how it's done. I didn't say I had trouble with it, just that there's room for improvement. When the release notes have to have multiple colors, bolds/italics, (even a screenshot saying not to panic when you see a failure screen) just to walk people through the process, there might be some opportunities to make things smoother. But like Steve said, it's 2015 hardware that's probably showing some age in that respect.
A cont-inuous source of inspiration...bwaaaaaahahahahaha
Love your videos and the way you patiently run thru what you wanna say/do. As a Helix user, i personally feel it's way too over rated and has the worst factory presets.
It costs 1,570 USD in India and it is indeed a total let down in many ways.
Such a what?! lol
The presets update is literally in the patch notes.. Step 4 "OPTIONAL: Performing a factory reset loads the new 3.50 Factory Presets.....Spend some time exploring these and export the factory presets you want to keep". And then it explains how to do it. In no way at all hidden.
Man. You caught me...
Thanks for showing how to do this!
Thanks for checking it out!
