HX Stomp XL · top panel · schematic, drawn from Line 6’s panel diagram

FS1–FS6

Six stomp switches in two rows of three, plus a dedicated MODE switch and TAP/TUNER. In Preset mode the middle four become A, B, C and D.

Press, in Stomp mode
Toggles the effects assigned to that switch.
Press, in Preset mode
Selects preset A, B, C or D.
Touch, without pressing
Assigns the switch to the currently selected block.
Touch repeatedly
Cycles through multiple assigned items.
Touch and hold two switches
Swaps their assignments.
Worth knowing
Tap tempo has its own switch, unlike on the small HX Stomp, so all six are free for effects.
