Line 6 HX Effects

The HX Effects is the perfect unit for anyone who wants all the convenience and flexibility of a multi-effects processor but still prefers to use their own amp. The HX Effects offers all the effects of the Line 6 Helix series—minus the amp models and cabinets—but with additional effects loops and amp switching right from the unit. The perfect solution for complete pre-programmed pedalboards loaded directly into your folder, or the 4-cable method with amp switching pre-programmed into presets or on a stompbox. 

The HX Effects has everything you need, from overdrives, boosts, fuzzes, delays, reverbs, choruses, and phases to much more. With two effects loops, you can add external effects or use the 4-cable method. Prefer stereo? No problem—with the stereo in and out jacks and the two effects loops, a full stereo setup is also possible.

• Multi-effects pedalboard with extensive control options
• Over 100 built-in effect models
• World-class polyphonic pitch-shifting effects
• HX audio engine delivers pure sound and realistic modeling

• External amplifier and expression pedal control

Following in the footsteps of the Helix, the Line 6 HX Effects features eight touch-sensitive footswitches that make it easier than ever to switch between tones, make instant sound adjustments, and recall settings. Simply tap the switch you want to adjust, make the necessary changes, and save them. It doesn’t get any easier than that. And to help you keep track of your tones and adjustments, Line 6 has equipped each switch with a customizable color-coded LED and a scribble strip. No matter how dark or bright the stage is, you’ll always know which function each footswitch controls

HX Effects is much more than a multi-effects pedalboard. While it can easily replace your current pedalboard in front of your amplifier, it features enough I/O and control options to take charge of even the most complex guitar setups. Flip over the Line 6 HX Effects, and the first thing you’ll see are dual outputs for controlling your amp’s channel or adding an expression pedal. Thanks to the dual effects loops, you can incorporate your favorite pedals anywhere in the signal chain. MIDI I/O integrates the unit into larger setups—it can even be incorporated into your band’s MIDI-based performance. And thanks to the Line 6 HX Effects’ USB capabilities, you can effortlessly perform edits and firmware upgrades from your computer.
