    I've had the HX stomp for about six months now and I've been trying to find ways to utilise all of its functions in some form of another. One thing I wanted to figure out how to do was live looping. It took me a few tries but I think I've come up with a nice and simple setup that will allow you to loop and overdub sections to add some more energy into your live performances (plus you can throw in some cheeky solos 😜).
    Like and subscribe if you enjoyed this video and let me know in the comments if you have your own set up for live looping. I'd be very interested to hear about alternative setups! 🙏

    Great tutorial. I've always just used the looper the standard way but this looks much easier. With a more gainy amp like the jtm45 you could ride the volume knob and have clean and distorted tones as well as bass

    I think it's worth mentioning, if it hasn't been brought up, is your footwear could be a factor in getting things in sync for recording and playback of the looper. I've found that softer soles on my shoe or soles that have tread on them (like a sneaker) can effect your timing when you trigger the looper. A harder, flatter sole is much more dependable.

    • @BillyCrabbeMusic
      @BillyCrabbeMusic  Před 6 měsíci +3

      100% I just played a gig last week and messed up the loop because I was wearing thick boots and couldn't gauge the timing too well. Very good point! Thanks for mentioning that 👌

      @@BillyCrabbeMusic Happy to share. Just one of those little things you might not think about till there's an issue. A wide shoe could be something to be careful of, too. Even having your Helix device on a soft carpet might be something to avoid if you can, as well.

    This is super helpful! Apologies if this question has been asked earlier in this comments thread or I missed it in the video, but is there a way to reset the looper when you go to a new song? Or do you just stop the old loop, then start a new one like you would by pressing the second footswtich then the third one?

    • @BillyCrabbeMusic
      @BillyCrabbeMusic  Před 5 měsíci +1

      Hey Dan! Glad you found it helpful! Yes to create a new loop, you would just stop the playback and then hit the record button again which will start a new loop.

    When deleting a recorded loop, the first second or two of the loop plays audibly while the button is held down to delete the loop. Is this normal, or is there a way around that?

    • @BillyCrabbeMusic
      @BillyCrabbeMusic  Před 6 měsíci

      With this way of setting up the loop you shouldn't have to hold down a footswitch to delete the loop, so im not entirely sure about that. I'll have a look into it.

    was 1 stomp enough to stomp the loop? I dont fint my XL's buttons physically fine enough for looping.

    • @BillyCrabbeMusic
      @BillyCrabbeMusic  Před 2 měsíci +1

      In a way I have two pedals set up for controlling the looper. It depends on what you want to do with the looper - this set up is basic and probably would require a lot of rehearsal to make sure that you get it right in a live situation. In the last video I uploaded I go over a couple different variations that give you a bit more control.

    • @ymelfilm
      @ymelfilm Před 2 měsíci

      @@BillyCrabbeMusic I figured out with a double footswitch I can do the loop on stage better. More precise. The HX Stmps buttons are NOT looper friendly at all, I mean physically. And then the software sucks too. Do you need quick double step on the button to stop ur loop? Anyways, I use a Rowin nano looper, the brown edition (the blue edition needs double stomp to stop the loop), and it is much much better than the HX Stomps puts on ur desk

  • @thinhhoian
    @thinhhoian Před 7 měsíci

    My question is while you are looping clean channel. Then change to distrotion for solo. So how do we change the channel by footswitch?

    • @BillyCrabbeMusic
      @BillyCrabbeMusic  Před 7 měsíci

      With the HX stomp that is a bit tricky to do cause of the limitation of the number of switches. Workaround would be to a distortion sound as your main tone and play with you guitars volume pot to clean up the sound or if you have a mini pedalboard have a separate overdrive/distortion pedal going into the HX stomp (not ideal if you are trying to travel light)

    Hey man I tried this today. Total noob here.
    Before this , I could switch presents by pressing the stomp buttons. Now that's gone. Not a big issue.
    I got the looper to work, but that third foot switch stays red and says tap tuner. I can only do it once with the second foot switch and then press it again for it to start playing.

    • @BillyCrabbeMusic

      Hey hey! Yeah, I had that issue when I was setting up. You need to go into your global settings and change the FS3 assignment. I can’t remember exactly how of the top of my head. I’ll have a look on my pedal tomorrow and get back to you.
