    The Morningstar MC6 is what you want.

    One thing I've noticed about modeling since its early days. With my POD and POD 2.0, and probably even up to X3Live, I couldn't rely on one patch to work the best it can with two different kinds of guitars. It just didn't happen. Whereas with an amp, I could, in fact, plug a strat and then a tele or a Les Paul into the same amp (if it's a good amp) and they could all sound good. Now Helix (and HD 500 before that) leveled the playing field more, so that I CAN get a decent tone from one patch out of two different kinds of guitars, but still, to be its BEST, I STILL find that you simply need to find what works for you for each guitar and make the patch for that guitar. I have found, however, that, for me, the Matchless models work "the best" with all my guitars, but NOT on the same setting. So I still have to make different patches or snapshots (patches works better for me, ymmv).

    bit crusher on extreme settings?

    I don't besmirch anybody selling patches. But not only would I probably never buy them, I've never even used anything but a patch I made totally from scratch ever since about 2000 when I started this whole modeling thing. Maybe I should be selling my patches...

    I have the rack and control... and imho, the Floor is the right choice for nearly everyone. HAve fun!
  6. PeterHamm
    I dunno. Try them and tell us!
  7. PeterHamm
    I doubt that's it, since when you plug a guitar into them it sounds WAY different from the front input set to 1MOhm. I tested it.
  8. PeterHamm
    That is "sig-worthy"...
  9. PeterHamm
    My channel volume is almost always at max for my clean sounds, and I never get any clipping. But I don't use high-gain amps, maybe that's it.
  10. PeterHamm
    It is probably this. Honestly, to be safe and sound, I just run my 1/4" out to a DI box. Works great, sounds the same in the system as the XLR does.

    If I could afford to own both, I would, too.

    Noise from USB

    PeterHamm replied to Flotsam71's topic in Helix

    I don't think it will work. Sorry. But I hope if you try it that I'm wrong. I used to have a problem with noise with an interface in my house, but used a laptop, so I just unplugged the power supply from the laptop while recording and dealt with it that way.
  14. PeterHamm
    So where do you get those parts?
  15. PeterHamm
    They could certainly make a new version that has perhaps MIDI implemented and maybe is larger and with built-in expression pedals, but they made it this size so you could fit it in a 2-sp rack drawer. Also, if they added more buttons it would probably be a serious firmware upgrade and the firmware would end up being so different on Rack than FLoor that it might not be worth it. I don't think they need to update Control. I love it just as it is.
  16. PeterHamm
    You could do that in your presets with an EQ block instead of using the global EQ for this, too. For those who want or need to save the global EQ for when you need to "fix" a bad room. But if it works, it's the right way to do it... always...
  17. PeterHamm
    it is a public conversation, and you are misbehaving in what is essentially a public space. You do this everywhere on the internet? Just curious...
  18. PeterHamm
    Leave software monitoring on... but set your Helix patch so that it goes out USB 1 and 2 ONLY. NOT multi including output.
  19. PeterHamm
    I don't know if you've noticed, but your feedback score is probably reflective of how your statements are received around here, sir. (-17 as of this moment) I think when you think you're being sarcastic (and I'm sure you mean to be) you are being perceived as being rude and offensive. If you'd like to hang around a while, perhaps you could re-examine your tone. Calling someone a "dumbass" is not the best way to go. Jus' sayin'...
  20. PeterHamm
    using different USB channels is easier than doing that panning, though.
  21. PeterHamm
    When its' problematic, one thing you can try is going in from Helix, but out through the built-in headphones just for monitoring. That will, at least, help to figure out what's going on. You don't need to upgrade (although I think it's money well spent) to do this.
  22. PeterHamm
    Aint that the truth! charge me an extra hundred, rackmount that thing, add midi... and TAKE MY MONEY!
  23. PeterHamm
    There are a LOT of guitarists who actually pine for the OLDER Whammy pedals. Perhaps that's why they modeled it. I think that polyphonic pitch shifting may come to Helix. However, it will be processor intensive, so even when it arrives, I'll probably prefer my POG2 in a loop.
  24. PeterHamm
    I suppose you could, but I think there are better solutions, so that you can let Helix be Helix.
  25. PeterHamm
    I have made patches with 3 or 4 signal chains with upwards of 25 FX going at once... ...more than that... and I'll just hurt people.
