HX Effects Guitar Multi-effects Floor Processor Review

Long overdue review, perfect practical effects solution, review for those with PEDAL GAS (I was one of them)

so I had this about a year now, multiple practice sessions with band, one gig so far with it (darn covid)......nonetheless, I tried the hx stomp first and it sounded thin to me, granted I probably didn't dial enough but definitely not the same as a tube amp, although the preamps sounded good thru my mesa. I digress, so after getting fed up with the constant GAS of new pedals and… read more changing my board around etc, plus tap dancing, it's not practical unless you have midi or one of those fancy pedal looper devices, especially when changing tones mid song so I figured I'd try the HX since I am a tube snob but thought the stomp effects were decent. GAME CHANGER!! midi with my amp is perfect too, I bought a suhr micro midi and I can use snapshots to not only activate multiple effects, but change amp channels too, all with push of one button. I even convinced my buddy to switch over who's also a tone/pedal snob. he loves it and sold almost all his pedals. granted dirt effects still sound better to my ear with a pedal (barely) but you have a loop for that, and the audience doesn't care, all the mod/verb and delays are great. honestly, I've been watching all the new gear stuff for the new year, and I'm getting bitter about it haha. same effects, different package, there's already millions of over drives or delays ...but these companies keep coming out with the same crap with a slightly different box with some new lame feature they are trying to market that's basically been done. tired of it, this is a great solution for a guy like me who's a hobbyist in a cover band. this device will make you reevaluate your gear and pedal collection. my previous board was easily worth 1500, and didn't scratch service of what the HX can do

More than I need but I like it

I wanted an upgrade and boy did I get it. A lot to work with but I'm getting the hang of it. Much potential for any application.

Absolutely Amazed

Line 6 has packed a LOT of power into a small package. This thing is a game changer for me. It not only has MANY great sounding effects, but it can also control my whole rig with ease. I was able to down size my main rig Big Time, and it has never sounded so good. For the very reasonable price, you get so much power. This one little pedal is providing all of my front of amp effects,… read more all of my in loop effects, as well as channel and feature switching for both amps, weather I run them independently, or in a WET-DRY-WET configuration WOW!!! The Effects are amazing The Midi Control is Amazing The Build Quality is Amazing Thanks you Line 6 and Sweetwater!

Amazing pedal

It is crazy what this can do! Wish the tech support or at least tech support videos were better. This thing is complicated for a guy like me! I'm a mechanic not an IT type guy. The videos teach in a way it seems that the viewer knows a lot about this. They need to teach in a way to assume the viewer knows nothing about it, like me! What I have figured out to this point shows me… read more this thing is amazing!
