60+ year old guitar player here, who bought this unit yesterday, fed up with stompbox issues playing live, and considering ditching my old 81 MM amp, and using a headrush FRFR speaker. Anyway, I found the Line 6 videos a bit confusing, other videos posted by users weren't to my liking for a number of reasons. Your video was great, and it was this one that got me up n running. THANK YOU! Heres some feedback for you. 1.Straight to the point, and using the unit itself to build and edit, rather than the edit computer software. Something essential to me as I'll be using it live. 2. It didn't skip about, in other words, you told "a story", saying what you were going to do, in most cases, explaining how to do it, then recaping at the end. 3. The lighting in your production, wasnt fully lighting up the face of the unit, so for me it was difficult to see HOW to do somethings. 4. You did say how to do it, but not all the time. I would expext experienced users to know how to do these things. As I see it, this video is suited to the beginner, and a few words of explanation at times would be great, instead of saying "Just do that" , when because of the lighting its difficult to see. Ive subscribed and look forward to looking at your other videos. I need to learn about snapshots, and one day how to nail the sound using an frfr speaker live.

Best review of this so far. Thank you.

Thank you. Yours is hands-down the best video I have seen demonstrating the basic function. Sure others go into a lot more depth, but yours was perfect for what I needed to know. Plus you were the only one that progressively played your guitar as you added or tweaked tones. Others go through all 5000 settings but you never hear it with the guitar maybe at the very end so that was cool and very helpful

"I mean that really sounds smooth to me...", well, yeah buddy, because it's you who's playing. :P :D Cheers, Martin

Krenar, my friend, you have hit the big time. Never mind the gorgeous playing. The ad before your video assured me I can finally learn to play guitar, if only I’ll give up on KZfaq videos 😂🤦🏼‍♂️ Love the Tele btw!

Totally agree, that’s a great unit. Love the tones and between the t484 and the tele man you got covered

I'm digging my HX Stomp! Good stuff Krenar!!

Your playing is smooth as butter!

The intro playing man OH MY :) Awesome review straight to the point bro. Was going to get the LT but I may get the XL

Holy moly! What a video! thank you for showing the process of how you dialed it in from scratch. Great playing 🔥Cheers!

Love the Maybach. I have a Lester 59. Incredible guitars.

straight to the point, well done video.

Loved it. Makes me wan to practice. Just don't dare picking up one of my guitars on a build day. Don't ant to mess up finishes.

Great playing!!!

nice review and great playing!

Very informative. I need one now!

great video. I like your taste, as I would tweak the effects similarly. great playing as well - interesting melodic style, rather than another pentatonic warrior.

Great work Krenar, that's awesome, all the digital pedalboards are great these days. I love the Headrush Pedalboard for my tone, but they are all great 😃🤘🎵🔥🔥🔥🔥

Great vid. I can't decide. This or pod go. I have probably £500 worth of decent pedals, but im not enjoying the audio clicking i sometimes get when adding effects.

Tasty playin as ever Krenar

Great video!!

Good stuff!!

I’m downscaling to HX XL from Helix LT for more portability. Find no need for vol/exp pedal in my electric and bass playing.

A little late on this video but great job. I'm thinking about grabbing an HX stop XL and a line 6 power cab 112+. I have the money I'm just stagnant on purchasing it. I play at home mostly and want the best sound out of an HX stop and I hear the power cap is pretty good. What are your thoughts?

Best demo of this I’ve seen ,in 17 minutes you taught me how to use it, how does this compare to the POD Go ? anyway I subscribed like your style 👍

👌🏻

Great review! I was debating between this and add a drive (tumnus) and a compressor (cali 76) for playing live at church. Seems way easier than having all the pedals I have. But do you ever feel this limits you live? If I sell my pedals this is basically the same price as getting a Helix floor, the only thing is the size! I dont want to lug my guitar and floor to church every week. If you have any thoughts on this I'd appreciate it. Thanks again.

Very Jeff Beck playing

in the video you are only plug on the computer? no physical amp? great video

cool video. what is the purpose of the global eq? how would we use it on a Princeton like setting, which you shared with us?

The HX stomp LT is great but I need the power of the full helix 🧬

Great video bro. I was wondering if you are familiar with Boss modellers (GT-1000Core, GX-100)?? I have the GT-1000 Core but it’s kinda leaving me wanting me for more and I was looking at the Line 6 (Hx Stomp/Xl) is it really worth the money and better than the Boss GX-100?? The budget I in as of now. Thanks in advance

Hey man, Loved your content!Rn I have a pod hd500x I'm trying to upgrade to a helix product. I'm kinda confused which one to buy tho, shall i go for the LT or stomp xl. Is the LT too big to carry in your suitcase if you're flying? Or shall i just take the xl like is the LT necessary?

I agree, new sub here

Hey, can I set two outputs in the stomp ? one for DI and other to go through an amp?

The up and down switches can also act as stomp box switches so we have 6 switches for effects in stomp mode? I saw you assign the tremolo to the bank down switch but just double checking to make sure whether I should sell my LT and pull the triger on the stomp xl or not. And what expression pedal would you recommend for the XL? I would prefer an expression pedal with 2 modes so I can control both the volume pedal and the wah in another mode with one expression pedal. Thank you for your answers in advance. Nice tone and playing.

L6, Yamaha knows tone.

That looks like a cool pedal board! Does it have a loop feature?

Few more questions. So I use both the volume and wah, 2 delays, 2 drives, one amp, and IR, one reverb, a Chorus, a looper, and a compressor in pretty much all my LT presets, but the Stomp XL can't handle all that right? Cuz of the limited DSP? And just one comment for Line 6: Please make another unit with the same form factor but with Helix computing power and call it a Helix mini. I'd buy that in a heart beat.

Is the sound/amp quality comparable with the nux mg30? Or is line 6 way ahead. I own the mg30 and was wondering if getting a hx stomp xl is an upgrade worth paying for.

Do you hook it up to an amp, or a PA or into a computer?

Do you try other effects gear in order to say it's the best ? Do you compare with other gear ?

Jack of all trades, but master of none.
