javi_bassist Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 HX FX "only" has the effects from the Helix. The HX Stomp has everything, but more limited to be more compact (it has amp simulations, the HX FX does not have them). The HX Stomp XL is the Stomp, but with more switches. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewblack Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 I had the stomp but swapped it out for the FX. I found the stomp too small and had a pile of stuff I didn't need. The FX is physically bigger and allows me to have a series of effects individually switchable. In other words more like a bunch of old fashioned pedals on a board. Put simply I find it easier to use. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My understanding is Line 6 have a website. Bad manners aside it’s like posting do I need crampons or ski’s? No context no idea why you’re asking the question. Do some digging and then ask more pointed questions and as a result *ssholes like me won’t make stupid comments on your post😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How dare I ask opinions of fellow bass players....on...erm...a board that is dedicated to the opinions of bass players....🤣 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W1_Pro Posted July 12, 2021 Author Share Posted July 12, 2021 ...anyway. I think, having done a bit of online research and listened to the opinions of folks that have got/had both units, the HX FX is the one I want. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like you got it sorted tho. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
