  1. Was in a very prog band in the 70's, Genesis/Yes/Kansas/Crimson etc - the Tubes were high on our list. I had this whole spiel memorized and would rattle it off easily (often under the influence of various and sundry pharmaceuticals). We went all around to stores and begged/bought/stole (?) as much POP displays as we could get our hands on (Point Of Purchase). So during the rap there'd be giant cardboard soup cans, cassette boxes, beer bottles - any product, you name it - getting thrown around stage. Good times! (Wish the Helix had been around then...)
  2. So..... models of the Danelectro Tuna Melt trem, BLT Slap Back, Pastrami Overdrive, PB&J Delay? Ah hell - now I'm hungry.
  3. From the moment I got Helix, I felt that L6 was missing a bet by not making their own expression pedal in the same format as the one built in. Same heavy construction, same treadle, same angle - heck even put magnetic pads on the sides so it would lock into place. Given the number of threads early on about compatible pedals it seemed like a no-brainer to me. Esthetically pleasing, placeable on the left or right - just seems like L6 missed a "plus sell" on this - I would have bought a couple.
  4. Congratulations! And Merry Christmas, eh? Oh I believe it - I've been sorta retired from playing (at least playing well, neurological problems) for a while and have barely scratched into Helix for a bit. I'd bet Data can weigh in on the setlist thing. And you're quite welcome - I've found the Helix community to be extraordinarily helpful. Glad you got it sorted.
  5. Hmmm. Sorry Joe, I'm about out of ideas here. To be clear, you downloaded Helix_Floor_v3.70.0_0xd2be32d64.hxf? (Assuming yes). Other than that I'm coming up short. DataCommando - thoughts? At least you're up and running on 3.6, yes? Nothing wrong with that, hold tight until this gets figured out.
  6. An excellent idea. Hopefully you see this after a nights sleep. Do check back, let us know how it's going.
  7. Personally, for the last several updates I've used the Line6 Updater, never have problems that way. If you go to downloads and enter Helix, then Firmware, then Windows 10 (I guess - don't know if that matters) it should take you to a screen where you can download the installer. Runs around 42 meg, very compact. Then run Updater and choose to update from local file. Works for me. Native has never seemed to have problems. Good luck.
  8. As noted above the 4 send/return loops are one solution - I'm a big fan of EHXs "9" series of boxes, a full size build might include the Mel, C9, String - and I always run a POG. So there is that. To your specific asks - the Poly Sustain (heck, all the Poly effects) are DSP beasts, eating up the lion's share of one of the two processors. (And a mighty big lion, at that.) Now, if you're currently using the Stomp for full amp/cab/fx modeling, and have presets that work for you now - well that's one DSP line, so you'd have another full line available in the Floor. So certainly possible. There are 4 sends on the Floor, and various ways to split the signal path, so getting an octave box to send to its own discrete output wouldn't be a big deal. It all depends on the routing within a particular preset. As flexible as it is, there are still some practical limits to how much Floor can do, as with any gadget. Until you start dropping boxes on the lines it's hard to tell you exactly what's possible.
  9. Why not simply volume fade (EXP pedal or guitar knob) into a delay/reverb? Here's a track I played on/produced for a local artist - no synths, all the pads are just what I mentioned.
  10. My first thought is that your IR of the studio is just that - an IR of the studio environment. No real guarantee that it will translate well in a variety of live settings, you'd probably find yourself tweaking with an EQ anyway. Me - I'd probably jot down the settings from your studio EQ, use them as default for the Para and adjust as shown needed at sound check.
  11. Can"t speak to the EGO, but I've regularly run Synth9, String9, Mel9, C9, Keys9 - there's always a POG on my board. Works a treat. Routing wise I put the sends first after the input (w/a compressor before to even out the signal), bring the returns in after amp/cab/gtr fx but before delay/verb to get some wet on'em. In some configs I put return levels on a foot pedal for fine level control/fades. Go for it, you'll be fine. Edit - Oh, I missed where you have an FX. Never mind - anybody else?
  12. Chuckle - well, I suppose that's a legit way of putting it.
  13. Yer welcome, brother - now get thee hence and make sum noize!
  14. 100% agree. Honestly quit messing with the HXedit path back in the 2.x somewhere - always a bit hit and miss. Have NEVER had an issue running local update from file.
  15. This - after returning to the band after a hiatus, they had gone to in-ears. Picked up a small mixer and told FOH to send me a band mix without me in it. I set my own guitar level for myself. Works a treat. edit - BTW I note your "without a mixer" comment. But no good way to achieve your goal otherwise. 'Tis what it 'tis.
