Yes exactly, that's really helpful thanks - I'll look into it a lot more now that I know it's possible. Still really learning everything about this pedal - been using Guitar Rig for the longest time, and before that I had a Floor Pod Plus, so this is a BIT of an upgrade to both of those (at least, I find it better than Guitar Rig, anyway)

Thank you for the reply, and my apologies; I use a Shure SM7B currently.

So essentially (for vocals), whether its the Beringer or otherwise, the best option is that you would need a pre-amp before the mic hits the Helix LT, as it doesn't contain a pre-amp whatsoever?

Thanks for all the replies - sorry for not specifying what I'm using; Windows 11 and Sonar. I have absolutely no issue continuing to use the Line 6 in the way it's intended, I was just trying to mainly get around the vocal issue. I was recording some guitar last night and it's very easy to get the dry/wet signal recorded simultaneously with very little effort, and the Beringer certainly sounds no better, quality wise, so it's not a case of that either. Vocals are the only main issue - I'm unsure how one would have two different interfaces connected at the same time, since Sonar (quite rightly) prevents them both being enabled at the same time. Is it a case of having to go into the audio settings every time you want to switch them around? Not ideal, but not terrible... For Vocals, I've also seen suggestions for using something like this: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Audix-T50K-Adaptateur-Impédance/dp/B0018STX4C/?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_w=FxzRs&content-id=amzn1.sym.ef3907ff-f91d-4263-9e4a-2471c52bf60e&pf_rd_p=ef3907ff-f91d-4263-9e4a-2471c52bf60e&pf_rd_r=21YV5YJM6C84P8ZBTH6N&pd_rd_wg=nf9FZ&pd_rd_r=5e4e1f2a-6e14-4afd-aaa6-2a2fa7e4911b&ref_=pd_gw_ci_mcx_mr_hp_atf_m Not sure exactly what the results would be, but the cable isn't cheap itself so cautious before just randomly picking one up.

Thanks for answering what I'm sure is a question asked all the time - these are very useful options. I think I could get used to the culture shock of controlling my PC volume with a guitar pedal instead haha The main question now is - can the LT effectively record vocals, and if so - how? I don't see the right XLR input on it for that. Because yes, I would want to record the wet and dry at the same time to give me options later - my biggest regret of a 2015 album I have is that, I want to play with it again now that I have more production experience, but the guitar tones are locked in because I didn't record the dry as a separate track.

Hey guys, Thanks for reading. I have looked through various topics and performed many searches to try and find the right answer, and I keep finding variants of it but not exactly what I needed. I thought in that case, I'd just ask outright based on my requirements :) What I need to be able to achieve is: Use Line 6 Helix LT as pedal only (not interface) Continue to use Behringer UMC204HD Be able to capture wet and dry signals from the Helix LT separately Is there any way to achieve this / what is the best option? I am using Sonar, and my currently interface is preferred because A) I use it for my PC sounds and also B) I record vocals. When I first hooked up the LT, it completely took over and disabled my Behringer - I could only then enable one or the other, so for now I have moved everything over to use the LT directly, but this does have some disadvantages: Controlling overall volume levels is more difficult (have to use my foot now haha) Headphones cable going under my desk and being awkwardly placed No idea how to record Mic from this Any suggestions? Baring in mind I only got this device yesterday and so have no idea how to fully use it yet - I played through all the presets one by one...that's all I've done thus far. Thanks in advance. Steve
