Pretty sure it IS class-compliant.

I've already exceeded the number of people who I thought would pay money for my (rather unusual) presets, so... my next goal is to become insanely rich because everyone else want them. Kidding... I want people to sound great and love what they play. That's all.

I feel the same way about the Cartographer.

Here's why that should not happen. You are talking about 3 different pieces of gear built into one. Chances are, if you did that, the people who are the target market for it (very few) are going to buy their favorite of each of those solutions anyway.

similar experience. I run my acoustics through either Guitar in or Return 1. My Ibanez fretless bass, tho, sounds fantastic through the Aux, so it's a case-by-case basis, I guess.

The aux jack is specifically for instruments with a built-in preamp, or instruments that plug into a preamp, then into helix. plain and simple. Some of those do NOT work well with the Guitar in, so I'm glad they put it there.

The aux input is going to work badly for this. Every time. Gain block or no.

Page 3 of Global Settings:Ins/Outs has some control. Set the volume knob to only control the output you are not wanting affected. You can do the same with the Headphones Monitor to an extent.

Output. The Output on MANY Volume Pedals works as an EXP with Helix. Oh, and they haven't made a big deal out of it, but compatibility with different old legacy pedals IMPROVED noticeably with 2.7.1.

You can't currently do exponential, but you can do either linear or logarithmic on the Volume pedal. You can do this. Hold down "MODE" and select the FX block you want to edit. now you can edit with your feet.

pretty sure that part of it is impossible. Only two EXP/FS connections possible. If you need more, look into MIDI stuff like Morningstar.

With Stomp, I'd seriously consider finding a built-in cab that works for you (adjusting lo hi cuts, mic distance (THE secret sauce), early reflections, and mic type) to save blocks. But yes, the FX Send/Return takes a block.

a sample of my multi-voice stuff for Helix, coming REALLY soon to Marketplace.

It's hard to clip the input. It's very possible to clip internally. But, that said, I like the Pad ON on Helix all the time.

I process two-voice guitar with Stomp. Acoustic and Electric at the same time from the same instrument. The same principle would work. However, with only 6 blocks, you will end up being really limited. One or both of the players might end up really frustrated. If it's simple acoustic guitar on one side and bass on the other? I think it could work okay.
