Boss IR-2 + Line 6 HX ONE: The Ultimate Mobile Guitar Rig? 

I love stuff like this. Small and simple and sounds great!

Cool video! Creative setup👍 🤘

As a keyboardist, I also double as an additional guitar resource in live settings. This sounds so good and takes so little room that it makes setting up and breaking down so much easier. Thanks for sharing.

Great Set-up and video. 🍻

Amazing gear guys , from Brazil!

"I left several of my capes at home" 😄 Great video, as always. Plenty to think about. Great sounds!

This was great and that effects unit is not costly !

Still watching but seems to me, an HX Stomp on it's own would cost about the same and have way more options.

Lee is the man!!!! Now show us the capes!

Great rig, but I would definitely go for a HX Stomp for a little more money. Thanks for sharing Lee and Paul.

Does sound pretty dam good! 👍🏾

This was great.

I was just messing with the IR and a stomp last night. Great stuff.

Great Video. I think the Boss together with a Line6 M9 or Zoom Ms 50/70 could be an amazing rig too.

Cool! I'm off to check out Cosmograf.

Fantastic video! Almost has me questioning why I continue with a Helix Floor... almost :D

Leeeeeeeeeee! Greetings. Nice video guys.

Brilliant!

I remember the days of the dreaded loading in/out... Lugging cabs and a rack unit about... Fighting to fit your stuff on a tiny stage... It's simple, easy, sounds great and the best thing is being able to have a few beers because you can simply get an uber home and bring everything with you. No more packing down then jamming everything into the car boot for the drive home...

The HX1 is nice. The Zoom MS70 is cheaper and allows several effects at once. Sounds good too.

This isn’t too far off my “no thrills” setup of HX stomp and Tonex in the loop 👍 Line 6 effects are always overlooked but worth checking out - the newer dynamic reverbs give most other pedals a run for their money 😊

Sounds great, is that impuls respons available?

Just ordered an IR2 to replace my Iridium. Let's hope it's worth it!

Now that's an excellent idea. Space saving has to be a real issue for any touring band.

here's a thought, for your solo/delay and output boost, could you insert the compressor infront of the boss to boost gain at same time.

I’m using a similar rig: the IR-200 (thanks to Paul) and Boss MS-3. 4CM. Love the flexibility and small size.

Love it. I'd probably still want to throw another pedal or two in the mix, or maybe one of the smaller multi effects units instead of the hx one, just for a little more fun. But I think most guitarists should limit their rigs like this and just focus on playing :D

An old Sansamp TRI AC would do all that and you wouldn’t need the DI box. My B-rig is a Blackstar Amped 3 with a couple of pedals and it sounds great.

Fantastic I’m thinking bout this as a replacement rig. Great tones. What’s that bridge pickup. What other guitars does Lee use apart from tele.

Excellent, shame there’s no link to the IR used by Lee, is it the 412 mesaboogie trad as part of the Evolution debut bundle

An original idea, nice. So you plug directly to a console. What would you do for on stage sound? Would you connect to a guitar amp or you just have monitors?

I think this quite genius....for the power n flexibility id use stomp in same way. Im usually with Paul on these effects units that feel under my finger is almost as important as my tone. The Boss stuff responds great . Something lacking from even the QC . 💯👍🏻

So in this setup as shown here, is it possible to run the HX One's stereo effects, direct it to the FX loop and from there to the DI box --> mixer? Or is it all in mono?

Is there a way to just buy Lee's OH recommended IR from the site? It's all a bit confusing with the packs they sell?

That's awesome. How do you switch between running the HX Stomp before or after the IR-2?

I'm confused on Ir-2 vs Ir-200. The 2 has more amps than 200, but aren't they essentially the same?

Lee is awesome

Interesting minimalist set-up. I always think I want/ need more, but in practice not much extra gets used. So, where can we find Lee’s eBay &/ or Reverb shop? Presumably there’s now a few bits of kit going spare …

Lee's minimalist fly rig packs a huge punch and gets the job done in a BIG way, does the R2 need a direct box? I thought you can go direct to a DAW, PA or a mixer, right?

Lee, I am in a psychedelic band, can the hx one do drop acid?

Hello ... When you move through the amplifiers and come back, the settings have changed... I wonder why? thank you

Very nice setup... I just got the Boss GX100, partly due to your vids (i love it and I obtained your patches 😁) has the Boss amps seen here and offers more FX than the HX one as well. But I do like line 6 fx as well... options options

8:17 any chance of getting those delay settings :-)

Have you tried the valeton gp200lt Lee,it can do the four cable method, put your own ir,s in and sounds great all for £200.

I’ll hold your beer while you make a new video about this with the new Pod Express and HX One

It took me far too long to realise that the guitar was going into the HX ONE first, and that the 'pre-amp' section of the IR-2 was in its loop, rather than the HX ONE sitting in the loop of the IR-2. It would have been helpful for the hard-of-thinking viewers like myself if this was explicit from the start.

How about the IR-2 and Zoom MS50G that y’all did a while back? Both can run on battery.

I’d take this over the hx stomp. I’ve owned the stomp and honestly some of us will never use all of what the stomp has to offer. The boss ir and 2 in 1 drive pedal is all you need.

The older I get the more I see the appeal of simplicity. Most of the guitarists I really love have one core tone, so what's the point of having gear that dilutes that?

Lee is a clever cat. Paul was genuinely impressed. I was expecting a bit of snark, but not here.

Even this "simple" stuff is way too techy for me. I just want 4 or 5 sounds controlled by pushing a button. One for funk one for soul one for a bit of crunch, one light heavy, one a bit heavier no metal shite and the ability to add wah, phaser, delay, chorus and reverb via one knob. What's my best option guitar gurus?

Can you put this pedal in front of a clean fender amp.With the Cab simulators off!

I wish I could use HX Edit on my smartphone.

I think, the best mini board is IR2 + zoom ms 50 or 70, you can use it only on battery, and this is cheapest way, on zoom you have multipedal preset

Would have loved to hear your Fender clean tone if you use one… maybe you don’t … And first time I thought the HX One might be useful… except I would prefer a mini HX EFFECTS where you could use 3 or 4 FX at a time. Comp, delay, reverb and trem would be perfect

Leeeeegend

Imho, a Princeton with 1x12 and a small pedal board is better in terms of tone and adjustability when playing living.

I know you're making content...but other than that, what advantage does this have over an HX Stomp? Assuming we call the amp modelling a wash...

Mooer Prime S1. $179 on Amazon. You're welcome. 😎

Wouldn't it be nice if the IR-2 was actually shipping to those who have paid for them?

You should show us a plain clean sound with rev,delay,chorus..

For that price, why not just get a Friedman IR-X? Was hoping this combination would be cheaper..

Tonex pedal and Helix HX effects would be another option.

Cool…but I just load the IRs to my HX Stomp. One less piece of gear to worry about…

Anyone else use a Strymon Iridium here?

There are quite a few small modelers that will do far more than this for far less money.

I think the IR2 sounds good for the money but I can’t see a reason to buy it unless you already have a pedalboard. To build a board from scratch this setup is extremely limited for nearly £450 quid. I just can’t see why anyone would do it. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Well.. it's not the IR2... in my country, they only exist on the internet....

This is the Devil’s work. You’re going down the path of total digital and God didn’t intend that to happen. It’s sounds great btw.

price wise, and real estate wise this is not far from hx stomp.

Seems that a GT1000 core would do much more and much better

The Ultimate Mobile Guitar Rig? Well... I just bought the Kemper Profiler Player some days ago. I don't think that the whole board showed in this video is much more expensive that the Kemper Player... and in my Opinion the sound of Kemper is still closer to a real Amp. And you are so much more flexible! You got 2 FX pre and 2FX post. You have a Tuner and Stereo Output and additional Mono Output where you can route one Output with cab (IR) and the other without. And it is smaller and lighter and just one Unit...

HX Stomp all the way…

your old pedalboard and a friedman ir x sounds a lot better

I liked everything but the clean tones. Since you like tweaking and compact rigs, why not just buy a quad cortex? And the search is over

hm. i dont get the one. i think its a bad product. too expensive. why would you buy this when you can get a used hx stomp for the same price? you can get the same simplicity and immideacy with 3 sounds.... no, please dont say, but a strymon is more expensive.... i´m of the opinion that any digital dsp based pedal above 200 is robbery. please remeber tc electronics line before behringer castrated them. then we were around 100... please wake up everybody and stop overpaying lazy companies.

The ultimate small rig is a HX Stomp with a Morningstar Mc6 Mk2 and a Hotone Ampero 2 press. That's it.

Bull shit ! You have to buy full range amp and speaker
