Saving Snapshots
Press SAVE twice to save the preset.
Saving a preset stores all of its 4 snapshots automatically.
NOTE: Selecting a preset recalls the Snapshot that was active when the preset
was saved.
Determining Snapshot Edit Behavior
Say you’re on Snapshot 2 (VERSE) and you change a few things—switch a delay block
on, switch a mod block o, tweak a (Snapshot Controller assigned) parameter, etc.
If you switch to Snapshot 4 (CHORUS) and then back to Snapshot 2 for the second
verse, should the HX Eects hardware recall those changes or return Snapshot 2 to
its state when the preset was last saved? There’s no right answer, therefore, the HX
Eects device lets you choose.
1. Press and then the GLOBAL SETTINGS switch.
2. Turn the Big Knob to select Prefs, then touch the footswitch
displaying "Snapst Edits" (FS2).
3. Turn the corresponding knob to set snapshot edit behavior:
• Recall—Any snapshot edits are recalled when jumping from snapshot to
snapshot, and appear as you last left them (the default).
• Discrd [Discard]—Any snapshot edits are discarded when jumping from snap-
shot to snapshot, and appear as the preset was last saved. If you want to save
changes made to a snapshot while Snapshot Edits is set to “Discard,” press
SAVE twice before selecting another snapshot
Tips for Creative Snapshot Use
• The obvious use case for snapshots is designating them to specic sections
of your song. For example, Snapshot 1 would be the Intro, Snapshot 2 would
be Verse 1, Snapshot 3 might be the Chorus, and so on.
• Turn any Delay, Reverb, and/or FX Loops blocks' Trails parameter to "On" for
seamless spillover between snapshots.
• "SNAPSHOT (X)" isn't very descriptive. Don't forget to name your snapshots—
See "Renaming a Snapshot"
• Worried that further tweaking might make your tone worse, not better? Snap-
shots are a great way to compare minor changes within a preset without
having to take your hands o the guitar.
• Want to save your footswitches for other uses? Command Center MIDI type
Instant messages are automatically transmitted when a Snapshot is re-
called. (Note that, at this time, Amp control messages are not transmitted per
snapshot when assigned to an instant command; only when assigned to a
footswitch.)
• Set dierent keys in Harmony Delay blocks or intervals in Pitch blocks per
snapshot.
• Having diculty maintaining consistent volume throughout a song? Set one of
the eects' Gain or Level parameter per snapshot.
• Remember to SAVE your current preset to retain any Snapshot settings you've
created or edited before loading another preset!
