Have you tried a DT25 or 50?

Why?

It’s almost here! I’ve been a DT and DT HD user since 2010. Upgraded to the Helix 2 months ago-ish. If you’ve been on the fence like me...come off and step into the light. It is so much easier to get good sounds with the Helix than the HD and with L6 finally in play... I have seen the promised land!

What?

Coming from a self proclaimed “negative Nancy“… I take this as very hopeful. Will do.

How many do you own? I own serveral too.

Somewhere around here or maybe over at the gear page thread there is an update. One of the employees tweeted that they were working over the weekend to get this done.

My experience has only been with the G50 and I get (virtually) identical sound/level as I do with a cord.

That was humor, I referenced a post in TGP with the question, and I don't see how the post you referenced answered it. Thanks for the...respose.

So, who do you have to blow to get a response from DI around here or TGP?

Hi Mr. DI. Have you guys arrived at the possible final beta to be dubbed as 2.8 as "hopefully" alluded to earlier in the week?

G50 for 4+ years and still going strong. It’s been dropped and half the paint is chipped off, but it’s very reliable. I still haven’t replaced the cord although I have had a backup. The cords locking latch doesn’t lock. I don’t know if it’s the cord or device but it never slips out. I cant speak for active pickup users though. I do wish the holder was replaceable for something tighter. Most of those drops were the results of trying to have it latched to my strap. I had to give up that desire and hook it to my pocket.

My Matte finish WG would love that! ...(damn shiny spots).

+1 Stunningly good with a little midi know how. ...and effortless in comparison with the HD sitting in my closet.

I want a green one.

I understand the Helix does not select DT settings according to the Helix amp model. I've been using midi controls with Helix for a little while now. The way I read the Helix's DT settings you posted it said something along the lines of Channel A (Helix) and Channel B (DT). So I thought channel A might be delegated to preamp disabled by default and B as DT fully engaged. I understood we have to set the parameters to taste. Will channel B offer equal functionality as channel A with regards to Helix usability(?) is ultimately what I'm wondering. Seems likely.

Touche'! Thanks DI. Based on your description of the DT controls in Helix: Can we can presume the DT's channel A by default will have the its pre-amp disabled? Can we also presume we will have full pre and post preamp effects for channel B while utilizing the amp's internal preamp and power amp (ala 4cm)? These are exciting times for Line 6 veteran Helix users.

Controllers and snapshots or controllers &/or snapshots? ...and thank you.

That was the purpose....no?

I must be missing something here. In what actual or modeled delay does the mix control the amount of repeats?

I also don't hook the Helix up to computer FIRST at home until after I have it plugged into the amp and both are on. the first 2 times I used it I had the Helix opened in the editing program and there was no sound when I then connected it to the DT. I've only had the Helix for a few weeks..... AND I LOVE IT! Now I'm stalking this place looking forward to 2.80 update and ditching my midi cables.

On the front of the amp I toggled to channel B then back to channel A and I heard sound.
