The HX Stomp and Helix LT don't have a mic input like the Helix Floor, but this adapter allows you to plug your Mic into the Aux Return as set up guitar/vocal patches such as this one.

Extra Power Cable for your HX Stomp
I've been using one of these power supplies permanently zip-tied to my pedalboard, and it's been very handy to keep the original power supply around for off-board usage. Plus it's cheap and works well.
