I disabled the effects loop for my clean channel and it did sound much better. Thanks for the suggestion. However, now I have a separate issue in doing this. When I go from my Clean tone to my Dirty rhythm tone, I get a "Pop" sound. It doesn't happen when I go from Dirty to Clean, only from Clean to Dirty. If I totally stop playing and hit the Dirty preset, there's no "Pop" but that's not always possible to do. Any suggestions?

I'll try that. A question to ask, if I disable the FX loop, I won't be able to use any Chorus, or Delay because those effects are IN the FX loop. Is that correct?

While appreciate the recent replies and assistance, I still don't have a resolution as to why I can't get a super clean tone when the Helix LT should be bypassing my amps tone and providing the selected pre amp tone from the Helix. Anyone out there having success with this when using a Marshall JCM 2000?

The Placater is the clean setting, not the high gain one. I'll try a specific clean preamp to see if that makes any difference. The 3 db has been corrected to 0 db. Other than that, I don't know what else I could try. The settings on the Marshall JCM 2000 are just about 6.5 on the EQ knobs across the board. This head has 4 tone settings, I'm only on the mild crunch (Green channel). I prefer to use the Green Crunch and hit it with a hot Tube Screamer setting. It's got warmer tones than the high gain ones. The Red channels are high gain but I'm not using them.

I should add a little more detail to this topic. I'm using snapshots. On my clean snapshot, the Tube screamer is not engaged. Only the Preamp, Delay and Chorus which are Y split after the Volume, then Merged just before the last effect of Reverb. The placement of the volume block is there because it makes the volume increase much smoother instead of nothing and abruptly hearing volume. It "Swells" nicer. I'm not using the volume block for cleaning up, it's only to cut the volume completely if needed vs rolling back guitar volume knob. I'm getting rid of the wah and using a traditional Wah. Thanks,

Try this one.... Preset000-NT CUSTOM.hlx

I hope this works. I have it set up in NT Custom 01A NEV TONES.hls

Hey, Sorry for the late response. I only have 1 Send/Return block and both are set to 0.0db. Going to try and upload that patch....

Guys, I'll get to this in a bit, got some work stuff that I gotta do. But I'll be back soon and appreciate all the assistance!!

I just checked and the cables go as follows: Guitar --> Guitar in on Helix Helix Send --> into front Input of Marshall Helix Return --> into Marshall loop Send Helix 1/4 out --> into Marshall loop Return I tried the suggested Global Settings and it did not make any significant difference, but I left it as Send 1 Inst, Return 2 Line.

I've got a Helix LT, and I'm setting up one of my presets to be a clean tone. I'm using the 4 CM into a JCM 2000 50 watt (2005) on the Green Crunch. It seems no matter what preamp I use, I just can't get a crystal clean tone. I've used a Digitech 1101 previously and still have it, and that totally bypasses the amp and gives me a nice clean tone from the processor. The Helix has to be able to do this, but I can't seem to find how to do that. Suggestions are appreciated. Thank you

Assistance requested please. I've got the Helix LT and I'm doing the 4 CM to a Marshall JCM 2000. I'm using snapshots and I had this working the last time I used it but something is up. On my crunch snapshot, the signal path is: Distortion>Noise Gate>Send/Return block (set for FX Loop 1). Then after that block I have a Delay>Chorus>Phaser> then finally a Reverb before going to the output. The Send/Return block isn't working even though I have my 1/4 inch cable using the FX 1 inputs on the LT. When I bypass it, I get sound. When it's active, nothing. WTH???

I was hoping someone can explain this odd situation to me. I have 3 heads with effects loops: TSL, DSL, and an JCM 800 with a Metropoulos zero loss. When I use my traditional pedal set up that powered with a Voodu Lab pedal power, I don't get any hum out of any of these amps. Delay and a clean boost are in the loop, a Tube screamer, Hush, and Chorus are in the front. I then plug in a Line 6 Helix LT multi effects using 4 CM, and I get a signal hum with either of these 3 amps. I tried the ground lift on the Helix, no change, I tried the effects loop button on the rear of the heads (+4 or -10) no change. I also tried this with an old Digitech 1101 effects processor and I get the same signal hum. Why would I get no hum using the pedal set up but get one using the Helix or Digitech and how do I fix that? Thanks.

I saw on a you tube video how you can get the Helix LT to change channels on a head. I've got the LT Ext Out 1/4 going to a Marshall JCM 2000 50 watt head, which is capable of channel switching. As soon as I plug a guitar cable from the Helix Ext out 1/4 and go to the Marshall 1/4 that is for channel switching, I get a loud hum that won't go away. I figured out how to make the channels switch, but I get a loud POP every time I go from the clean snapshot to the dirty snapshot. I don't get any hum when I use the switcher that came with the amp. I tried a standard guitar cable and a cable that came with a single button switcher pedal...same loud POP with both. Also a really weird sound changing from Clean Snap Shot to Dirty snapshot. Thanks for you replies.
