what you actually bought

What this box is for, what it is not, and the first thing to check.

the one thing

It is a whole guitar rig in one box—amps, speakers, microphones and effects, all modeled. Whether it sounds right depends almost entirely on what you plug it into.

what it is

A pedalboard-sized multi-effects unit with the full Line 6 HX effects library, six stomp footswitches with color-coded LEDs, two effects loops and full MIDI. It has no amp or cab models. It sits in front of, or inside, an amp you already have.

check your modeler

If yours has amp models it is an HX Stomp or an HX Stomp XL. If it is a single pedal with two switches it is an HX One.

check this first

If you are looking for the amp models, there are none, by design. HX Effects is the effects half of the platform, for players who already have an amp.

gridleak presets don't install on HX Effects yet. the amps are all in the catalog.
