Wow, sounds great! I’ve been looking at the Friedman JJ Jr for gigs and quiet practice/recording at home.
I gig with an EVH 5150 iii 50w 6L6 head. Decent cleans (with zero breakup) and tight metal tones but it doesn’t do that classic Marshall thing.
The direct out of the 5150 is just awful. I...
Thx, I will check this in the morning. Appreciate the help!
Thx for the help. The Helix is showing up in my track input list. I’m selecting 0/1 out of the 8 possible inputs. Not sure if that’s right. I’ll check out those Asio drivers in the morning. Are those PC only? I’m on a MacBook Pro...
Hi everyone,
I have a Helix LT and I can never get enough volume when going direct to a small mixer (XLR or 1/4) or Adobe Audition for recording (USB). I have my output set to Multi Output and increasing the output level doesn't do anything in Audition. I have to really increase the volume in...
Is it worth loading the 2.8 factory presets? Thanks!
4. Loading the 2.80 Factory Presets / Templates
IMPORTANT! The following procedure will COMPLETELY ERASE ALL OF YOUR CUSTOM PRESETS! If you want to keep them, make sure you back them up First! (See “STEP 1a :Backing Up Helix /HX Hardware”...
I’m starting to dial-in some decent tones with my new LT. I put a Digitech Drop in front of it but it seems to add a touch of gain and a metallic sound on clean sounds.
Has anyone experienced this? I’ve been giggling with the Drop for years in front of regular amps and never had an issue...
So I'm starting to dial-in my Helix LT for live use, mostly rock. Is there a huge advantage upgrading to 8" monitors over 5" monitors? Obviously low-end would be better.
My Helix LT arrives tomorrow, YES!! I already have a pair of AKG K52's that I currently use for silent practicing through a variety of other amps, RP1000, etc. Would I see a huge improvement in tone with the Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro 80 ohm headphones?
Also looking at the new ADAM T5V's as...
Is anyone using a Boss Katana as an onstage monitor? I have the Katana 100w 1x12 combo. My Helix should be shipping within a day or two so I'll be able to test it out. Would I plug the Helix into the Katana's return? Thanks!
Finally.......Helix LT and Backpack ordered :) Busy summer gig schedule is winding down soon which means I'll have time in the early fall to get everything figured out, can't wait!!
Ok, cool! So those are 2 ways to set it up then. Pretty versatile! I think there's another way with 4 snapshots and 4 presets on the Performance View screen but not 100% sure.
Question about the Helix LT and presets/snapshots: (I don't have a Helix yet)
If I have 8 snapshots for a preset, then step on the up or down preset foot switches, will the next preset's snapshots (if any) show up on the performance view screen? It makes sense that would do that, just want to...
How does the PowerCab and PowerCab+ work with high-gain amp models on the Helix? My favorite real-world amp that I've been gigging with for the past couple of years is an EVH 5150 iii 50w head and 2x12 cab. I wonder if the PowerCab can model some of that awesome low-end thump of a high-gain...
I'm close to pulling the trigger on the Helix. I'm tired of lugging my EVH 50w head and 2x12 cab to gigs. Our sound company mic's my cabinet and we use in-ears so I'm used to hearing the mic'd tone of an amp.
I've read a few things about the different build qualities in the Floor vs the LT. Can...
Looks great! I don’t think my Shure wireless will fit on the right side, hard to tell, though.
How are you securing the Helix to the board? Good ol’ Velcro?
