In case of dedicated firmware for HX Stomp, controller can work in five modes:

  • Preset Mode (with moving TAP*) – In that mode you can choose presets in banks (of the controller) of three presets. Function based on Program Change MIDI message
  • Snapshot Mode (with moving TAP*) – Recalling snapshots 1-3
  • FS Mode – access to FS4, FS5, Tap tempo & Tuner
  • Looper Mode – control over looper block in HX Stomp (record/overdub, play/stop, undo)
  • CC mode – each button can work as CC toggle, which can be assigned to block bypass/parameters

*Moving TAP is special feature – allows to TAP tempo using button of currently selected preset / snapshot. First press of the button recalls preset/snapshot and the next presses of the same button sends TAP tempo.

Layout of the FS Mode is selectable by user, and functions can be in order:
-FS4 / FS5 / TAP (and tuner on hold)
-FS4 / TAP (and tuner on hold) / FS5
-TAP (and tuner on hold) / FS4 / FS5

Tuner is accessible in all modes (except Looper mode).
