fix it

It is assigned to a different output . Fix: The knob drives one output at a time (main, alternate or headphones), set by the three buttons above it. Press the one you are listening to.

The knob is locked . Fix: Holding the lit output button disables the knob so it cannot be knocked on stage. Hold it again to unlock.

There is a Clone block before them . Fix: Every Clone block is mono, and anything stereo before one gets summed. Move your stereo effects after the clone.

Firmware older than 1.3 . Fix: PROXY cloning arrived in Helix Stadium firmware 1.3. Update the firmware. A red dot on the Main Menu icon means an update is waiting.

Nothing on the microSD card . Fix: Song tracks, loops and preset clips all live on the card, which sits under the security panel on the rear. It ships fitted, and if it has been removed, Showcase has nothing to read.

You are in a different footswitch mode . Fix: Press MODE to toggle your two main modes. Hold it to see every mode, including Transport.

The left column is set to song or marker . Fix: Hold FS1 + FS7 to cycle it back through bank, preset, snapshot, song and marker.

A foot is resting on a capacitive footswitch . Fix: Touching a switch selects its block without changing the sound. Move your foot off.

An input or output block is clipping . Fix: Input and output blocks turn bright red when they clip, and FX Loop blocks turn red when the Return clips. Find the red one. There is no other meter.

The input needs the pad . Fix: The Instrument input has a switchable pad and its own impedance setting, before any block. Use them instead of spending a block on a gain stage.

You have hit a hard cap . Fix: Four amps or preamps per preset, two per path. Four clones, two per path. Eight cabs, four per path. Two poly effects per path. None of these are DSP limits.

Clones and Agoura amps are expensive . Fix: A Clone costs about as much as a full Agoura amp model. Two of either on one path plus effects will fill that path. Move blocks to the other path.

The cable is in the USB A port . Fix: USB A is a host port, for an Ethernet adapter. The computer goes in USB C.

You are using an older Helix cable . Fix: Earlier Helix modelers use USB Type B. The Stadium is USB-C and the old cable does not fit.

Snapshot Edits is set to Discard . Fix: Global Settings > Preferences > Snapshot Edits sets this. Recall (the default) keeps your changes as you left them. Discard returns the snapshot to its last-saved state. Discard suits playing live and loses edits while you are building. Hold BYPASS and press SAVE to flip it at any time. The camera icon on the Home screen is gray for Recall and red for Discard.

Nothing has been changed in it yet . Fix: An unedited snapshot carries the state you arrived with. It becomes its own sound the moment you change something in it. Nothing is broken.

It recalls whichever snapshot was active when the preset was saved . Fix: Saving a preset stores all of its snapshots and remembers which one you were on. If a song should always start on the intro sound, select that snapshot and then save. The choice is made at save time, not at load time.

Snapshot Mode Switches is set to Auto Return . Fix: Set Global Settings > Footswitches > Snapshot Mode Switches to Manual Return and it stays in snapshot mode until you press CANCEL. Auto Return suits occasional snapshot use. Manual Return suits a set played on snapshots.

That block's Trails setting is Off . Fix: Trails Off mutes repeats and decays the moment the block is bypassed. Trails On lets them ring out, through a bypass and through a snapshot change. It is set per block, so check every delay and reverb.

No—Line 6 flag this in capitals, twice . Fix: Never connect these XLR outputs to a device whose XLR inputs have 48V phantom power enabled. On a desk, that means switching phantom off for those channels before you plug in, not after.
