Excellent thanks Phil! -
Helix 4CM Amp Switch Mesa V:25 and Mesa Mini-Rect Not Working
dbagchee replied to GadgetGuitar's topic in Helix
Yeah I have both the Mark V:25 and Rectoverb 25 and have no problem switching channels from the Helix. I only use a 1/4 inch instrument cable for both (just to switch channels, not to use the EQ switching on the Mark). I remember this thread from before I got the Helix and I was expecting to run into problems but it always just worked for me. -
Is there a further mono/stereo folder under legacy or are they only mono version of the effects?
-
Quick question - do you have to setup a preset with the various inputs enabled and routed in order to record them? I tried using the Helix as an interface in Reaper and I see the 8 inputs but I only get a signal on 1/2 - I tried running my Amplifire into Return 2 and I can only record it if I add a return block in the preset (and again only on input 1/2) - shouldn't I be able to get the input with an empty preset?
-
Have the presets for the Shuriken been made available to download yet? More importantly, are they compatible with the other JTV guitars?
-
I'm not going to hardwire it as I don't want to mod my unit while it is still under warranty. I figure this solution will at least minimize the amount of plugging/unplugging of the usb since it will be stationary on my board with the added benefit of being able to power it from a common power supply.
-
I ordered these two items which will hopefully provide the same result as that board: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00RWY32A2/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00QJAW9F4/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_S_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=3VN1CAY0GAB&coliid=I5B6LSZKP0A2J It will take a while to arrive but I'll report back with results.
-
Have you tried this on a daisy chain (onespot etc?) - just wondering if it generates noise or has to have isolated power.
-
The left mono line input should work fine. Just set that to your input in your global settings and you should be good to go - no cables up front :)
-
Did you try using the amp at the repair shop with the HD? Or somewhere besides your house?
-
I think the second is the amp as well - that rolled back clean tone has a lot more body to it, where the Pod tends to get a little thin and flat. I'd love to be wrong and either way both sounds are totally gigable and sound good!
-
What cable are you using to connect your phone directly? Remember that the speaker is mono so a stereo signal might get a little funky depending on the mix and how you are connecting it.
-
That is a weird one. When you unplug the cable from the the Pod that sound goes away completely?
-
Just finished my first "custom" board build (custom meaning plywood and paint :D ). Got a great heavy duty case but the board it came with was too small. I prefer a lift out style case like this so I can swap back and forth with an alternate board with regular stomps. Heavy as hell but should be a lot quicker to setup!
-
Ooh a KM-7 is on my wish list!
-
My favorite pickups right now are the stock ones in my PRS Tremonti Custom SE - I think they are essentially lower end versions of Mark Tremonti's signature pickup set. I used to prefer active EMGs, but now I prefer hi-gain passive pickups that clean up good when rolling the volume back. These do that really well and are very expressive. I may spring for some Bare Knuckle Juggernauts at some point.
-
Super clean setup! I like it!
-
What pedal case is that Ben? My HD500 gig bag is about done, and thinking of going the hard case route.
-
Cool will check it out!
-
Where do you have the FX block in your preset? Try moving it right after the Mixer block and see if that helps. There are a few ways to set it up, but also try boosting the mixer by 3db for both path A and path B since there is a little bit of a level drop on the FX send.
-
4CM works great with my Mesa amps - Stiletto, Rectoverb 25, Mark V:25. You should be good with any amp with a quality buffered series fx loop. I added a Voodoo Lab Control Switcher so that I can change amp channel via midi from the HD500.
-
Sounds fun! Again the super flexible routing and dual stereo paths of the Pod HD500 wins!
-
That is a cool setup - nice idea using the ipad for video stuff!
-
I would not want to have to move that rig to a gig PerS :D

Here's my Pod HD500 4CM with my Mesa Mark V:25. Not pictured is my Voodoo Lab Control Switcher (at our rehearsal space).
