Overview
The HX Stomp XL delivers HX® modeling in a performance-ready pedal with eight capacitive-touch footswitches. The same SHARC® DSP chip found in Helix® enables it to run up to eight processing blocks simultaneously, and the footswitches let you access and control those blocks in powerful ways. It sends and receives Program Change, Continuous Controller, and other MIDI messages. USB HX Stomp XL functions as a multi-channel 24-bit/96kHz audio interface for Mac and PC, with DI, re-amping, and MIDI capabilities built in. HX Stomp XL can also record to an iPad (with optional Apple Camera Connection Kit).
The Power Of Eight
The HX Stomp amp and effects processor was already the leading device in its class—but with five additional footswitches, HX Stomp XL greatly expands its real-time performance capabilities. Use HX Stomp XL as a “super stompbox,” a backup or travel rig, an add-on tone expander with other modelers, a professional-quality audio interface, or even a complete guitar or bass rig. The HX Stomp XL processor’s Command Center functionality, MIDI capabilities, and external expression pedal jack also make it an ideal master controller for your entire setup.
Authentic Modeling
HX modeling digitally mirrors the circuitry of analog amps and effects, component by component. Every model sounds and feels realistic, including such notoriously hard-to-model devices as vintage fuzz and modulation effects. Simply put, the HX Stomp XL amp and effects processor nails the analog vibe.
Intuitive Operation
Despite its compact size, HX Stomp XL is easy to use, thanks to its simple but powerful controls, color LCD, and eight capacitive-touch footswitches with color-coded LED rings.
Highly configurable I/O permits such routing schemes as simultaneously feeding an amp and a FOH mixer, employing 4-Cable Method, and re-amping in the studio. External control via MIDI and optional expression pedal or footswitch provide additional flexibility.
Pristine Audio Quality
An industry-leading 123dB of dynamic range provides tremendous depth and ultra-low noise. High-quality components provide unadulterated audio from inputs to outputs, whether feeding an amp or powered speaker, going direct to FOH, or recording in a professional or home studio.
Models
Over 300+ HX Amp, Cab, and Effects models, including world-class polyphonic pitch-shifting effects. Along with 3rd party IR support, HX Stomp XL can do up to 8 models simultaneously, and 128 presets.
I/O
1/4" stereo input, 1/4" stereo output, stereo effects loop, headphone out, MIDI, USB, expression pedal input. Allows for split/parallel signal paths, as well as the 4-cable method, for maximum routing flexibility.
Footswitches
8 capacitive-touch with color-coded LED rings, along with dual expression pedal/footswitch input.
Audio
Features the power of HX modeling, with the same SHARC DSP chip as the Helix processor. Complete with 123dB of dynamic range, and a 24-bit/96kHz USB audio interface.
App
Free HX Edit app allows you to create, save/load presets, load IRs, and customize nearly all pedal parameters.
