I really hope this can be turned off in the final version. Those things drive me crazy - just like microsoft does on windows with every file you open. Fortunatly there a ways to set this of in windows.

Thanks!

This is was happend to me with an early firmware / Helix app version. It was a bug that it shouldn't appear in the latest firmware. Do you have the latest Version the helix application too? I'm on Win 10 too and never happend again after updating.

Are the models where no "based on" is indicated all Line 6 originals?

This is apple fault not Helix. There are many posts about this

Thanks for the reply. I have to experiment a little with that. I guess it's just different thinking. For me it would be logical to just engage one path while disengage the other. Meaning set one input to know the other to guitar or whatever is pluged in.

As far as I know it isn't possible to directly switching between paths. So If I want to have a patch with paralell paths and switch between them It is done for example by inserting two volume pedals. So what's the reason for not enabling direct path switching?

After you have updated everything you should set the Guitar In Impedance to your needs in the global settings!

I have posted an Idea a long time ago for this: http://line6.ideascale.com/a/dtd/Guitar-in-Impedance-per-patch/800290-23508 Unfortunatley double posts reduce the number of votes for any of them

I have just added a new Idea regarding the import and Export of Impulse Responses: http://line6.ideascale.com/a/dtd/Impulse-Responses-IR-Import-Export-automatic-Number/806973-23508 Please vote if you like the idea - thanks! Here's the Idea: Import and export Impulse Responses is not very convinient at this point. So I thought of a way that could make this process a little more user friendly without changing the whole workflow. 1) First off all the impulse responses internal should be saved with the whole name. Even if it is cut on the display, the whole name should be save internal (even only in editor or the device itself), so that on export the whole name is there again. 2) If a Impulse response is imported the internal name should be extended with the slot number as prefix. Again this would not be visible. So the internal name for a IR on slot number 1 would be like: 001-Original-cab-name Visible name on display would be: Original-cab-name If now the IRs are exported for a backup all IRs would be sorted autmatically as they are prefixed with the slot number. On the import the editor would recognize on which slot the IR was by reading out the first letters (001-) and import it in the right slot. This would even work if we have empty slots between the IRs because the program recognize the number on import. Another advantage would be that we could easily prepare our IRs in a folder and sort them by simple adding the slot number to the name as a prefix. So on Import the IRs are imported in the slot we like as we have added the prefix. Hope it is understandable - Thanks for voting

Drop me a line when you are ready to sell yours. A friend off mine would love it after he tested mine :-)

I will drive you crazy with the editor too ;-)

I'm waiting for the editor too but I'm patient with them. In the meantime I play that f*** thing and have lots of fun.

Good to know - thanks B)

Good one - thanks for sharing!

No, not yet. I have to try on the weekend. What sound are you after? Do you have an example?

I have the Mustang III. As far as I know it uses the same Software to create patches (fuse). At the time I bought the Mustang I still had the HD500. One of the first thing I missed in fuse was the possibilty to fine tune the Sag and Bias. As far as I remember there are only 3 possible position to choose from which I find very limiting. Mustang for me is a very handy and nice sounding practice amp though. Helix (and also HD500) has BIAS, BIAS X and SAG and you can tweek them fluidly - not only 3 steps. So yes Helix has it and it has way more possibility to fine tune the amp settting. Oh - and it sounds great ;-)

Yeah, I've got that - Just liked to show him how it looks like :-)

Here's some pictures I found: http://www.giampaolonoto.it/david-gilmour-effects/ Later he's using this for effect switching http://www.petecornish.co.uk/fxboards.html

I think there should be a global option for this, since people prefer different defaults.

With the ross there's really not much difference to the red compressor already included

While I like the idea I really think that the focus in the helix itself should concentrate on Modelling and sounds. All that fancy stuff eats up DSP and storage. But this would be a good Idea to have on the helix editor only - not in the device itself. Just my 2cents

I use the Deluxe Comp most of the time. Don't like the red that much. Still missing the Boss CS2 in Helix ;-)

If you don't mind spending a lot more get the helix. I had the HD500 since it came out and got the Helix in Decenber. Just sold my HD500 a week ago.

Yeah, thats right. There's another thread where someone mentioned that is not good to use both cables togheter because it can cause damage. I'm not sure about that - used both together for a while without any issues.
