NOTE: HX Stomp transmits and responds to MIDI messages over USB in the
same manner as via its MIDI connectors. For USB MIDI operation on Windows
computers, it is necessary to download and install the Line 6 HX Stomp ASIO
driver, available from line6.com/software. There is no driver installation necessary
for Mac computers or iPad or iPhone devices.

sages will recall the current preset and snapshot.

sets and/or snapshots from external MIDI devices or software. In the illustration

changed from "Global Settings > MIDI/Tempo".
