airguitargb, Never fear. You will not just figure it out, you will have fun with the unlimited ways the Helix can open your mind. Also, I can't believe I am a few months away from being 76 years old. I started the path to the Helix about 10 years ago and have not looked back. I did just trade up but that discussion is for another time. There is a person by the name of Jason who is one of many Helix tutorial "kings" on youtube. You can start by listening to the default presets that come with the Helix. Many are named "similar" to the songs they represent. I found that a decent 250k ohm open back headphone set like the beyerdynamic dt990 works well for in room testing for tone and sound level. datacommando is correct hat you will need to work with the sound person for your playback system. I would continually work with our soundman at least once a month when possible. Anyway, here is Jason's Line 6 KB page and also his youtube channel. And as you search you will find more tutorial videos. You should find that your pace will quicken as you develop a self-learning path as most of us have. https://kb.line6.com/helix-tutorials-by-jason-sadites https://www.youtube.com/@JasonSadites/search?query=Helix Floor You will want to focus on the Helix Floor as opposed to the Helix Stadium XL for now. Again, have fun and enjoy the ride. jpd

thanks for this, the videos are good but they still go too fast for me lol. I will persevere

Here ya go - start out with the bite size chunks videos. https://line6.com/support/helix-minutes/ As for the "oldies" thing - pah! You're a mere child - there are quite a few forum users who are beyond their allotted years of "three score and ten". Then when it come to listening to your Helix, please read this: https://blog.line6.com/2023/09/15/eric-klein-at-least-half-of-your-modelers-sound-is-determined-by-your-playback-system/ Hope this helps/makes sense.

Thanks, no I can literally watch/hear it glitch. But actually I've just figured it out... I found that Logic MIDI 'chase' CC#64 will send messages that confuse the Helix tempo. Disabling it solves the problem! This is quite a breakthrough and I can't see any discussion about it. Perhaps rarely used. I still don't understand why: Global>Footswitches>FS4 Function is assigned to Stomp 4, when the expression pedal is effectively taking that slot. Is this correct anyone?

You're right. That functionality does not yet exist. Submit a feature request here: https://line6.com/company/contact/productfeedback/

You can’t send them individually to the FOH but you can adjust all the things you mention in the Matrix Mixer, and then send the pre-mixed stereo signal to FOH from the Stadium Send 1/4" outputs, independent of the XLR outputs.
