Sorry. I need to speak on this a little bit more. I would rather play than tweak. The Helix could probably get that sound if you are a tweaker. But for me some of the things in the Helix doesn't feel organic under my fingers. Don't get me wrong, there a few patches in the GT that don't feel very...
I've just been playing and tweaking.preset 9-2, the Experience Blues preset. Just running it into the front end of a Mesa mark v and a Roland blues cube artist. No special routing. Giving me goosebumps!
This! I've been playing this thing all day with the neck pickup on various strats and it's just so good and chewey. Very woody sounding. The one thing that I could never get out of the Helix.
Returning mine. Has a terrible hiss when plugging direct into a board.
Had an amp die on me Sunday after the first three notes of a gig. Ran the HX into my Ethos pedal into a DI and got decent results. No problem.
Had a gig last night that. Had a tight setup schedule and a smaller space. Ran...
Can this thing do stomp box mode like the Helix, i.e., converting all 10 footswitches into individual on/off stomp boxes? Couldn’t find that feature when I was playing through it.
Can I create custom signal paths? Maybe I just want 1 amp, a tube screamer and a delay in the signal path. Is there...
This. As I said in an earlier post, if you like Boss effects, this thing is a huge leap forward for them. I just bought the HX effects. I may pick this thing up. Just for its size alone.
No. I didn't try it. I will do so when I get my hands on it again. I do wish they could have implemented some color in there somehow, but that probably helps keep the cost down.
I am highly interested in how bluetooth will be implemented in the unit. That could push me way over the edge and...
That's sort of what i mean. There isn't a ton of Dumble this or Marshall that or 12 different Fenders in the unit. This does Boss to the max, which I think is a good thing. If you need updates for Amp X, Y and Z, I just don't see that happening with Boss. I see this as a powerful tool for...
Well, thought I was gonna spend a lot more time with it today, but only got to play it for about 5 minutes before I had to run out the door. Will go back to Guitar Center and play it again tomorrow, but just a few things:
1. As others have said, it is Boss. If you like Boss sounds then you...
Ok. I’m in St Louis and the Guitar Center here (Bridgeton) has one on display. I’m not getting in depth because I’m a player that’s not really deep into programming anything. I just bought a HX last week so here are my brief thoughts:
The amps are very good. I found a handful of usable tones in...
