Looking for some input/advice before I embark on a shopping trip... Want to set up a W/D/W rig with Helix and a Mesa JP2C amp. The signal flow would be: Guitar -> Helix -> Helix FX Send -> Amp Input -> [Here is where I am not sure if this would give me the desired results] Amp Out -> Torpedo Captor (the regular one not the new X) -> Two Outputs from here 1- Torpedo to speaker (with or without attenuation as needed) 2- Line out (on the front - its without the speaker sim) -> Helix FX return ->Helix L/R outs to FRFR cabs The end result is that the amp is the center dry signal using pre-amp fx from the Helix (compression, overdrive, occasional modulation, etc.). The left and right get the core tone from the amp via the torpedo captor and I can add delay/reverb/other stereo effects as well as using different cab sims going to the FRFRs. Anyone ever try something like this?

I rarely run into issues with a single amp (a mini rec or mini mark) but when I try to run both through my rig I have to add hum eliminators somewhere in the chain. Not a big deal if I have to continue to do that was just being optimistic that it would be a simpler plug-n-play type thing. Guess we will wait and see...

I see that the Helix can support multiple amps which is a huge selling point for me. However, in my experience, there is often a lot of trouble shooting to eliminate noise, hum, ground loops, etc. when putting together a rig with two amps via 4CM (or in this case 7CM). Is this an issue with the Helix?
