Thanks for the help. Got accepted. also submitted a new idea already. https://line6.ideascale.com/a/dtd/Aguilar-Agro-bass-overdrive-distortion/1034058-23508?submitted=1

I haven't tried the Helix through FOH yet. But red similar problems with the POD HD back in the day. Probably you need a decent FRFR speaker where you dial in your tones. Even with a expensive headphones your tone might sound pretty differrent on an FRFR speaker and stage volumes. I always dialed in my tone with the POD before hand on an Alto speaker and didn't had any problems, the sound guys were happy with the sound. Also I don't know how you dial in your presets but you should probably use a low and high cut. In one of reiffs beards and gears video Ryan says for a live situation he cuts down to 8-10Khz because it would take peoples heads of. Maybe you will find some useful things, he uses Helix in his live setup

How long does it take for a moderator to approve my acocunt? I'v been trying it for 2 days now.

Why can't I post on ideascale? It says that the moderator didn't accept my receipt yet. But I didn't had to upload it there. It is accepted on Line 6 website.

I have a 212 cab with V30s and thinking of swapping them for the F12 X200. Currently I am using an Alesis monitor wich is ok, but not the real thing. My only conern is that I play bass in a band and those celestion speakers range is in between 60Hz-20000Khz. I am unsure how it would handle a tuned down 5 string bass :/

Do Line 6 read this? I tried to post my ideas on the Line 6 ideascale, but says moderator didn't validate my receipt, but it was. So my ideas: - Aguilar Agro, preferably the rackmount unit, with and extra blend/mix function. I think it would make a lot of bass players really happy :) - EVH 5150 III EL34 version - Rivera KR100 or KR7 for all us Slipknot fans :)

Tried yesterday ML Soub Labs Boaner and Mars Silver Pack, they sound amazing! There are some samples in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFJjDHcVIyQ

So far I only tried ML soundlabs Mega Oversize and Freeman pack. I like more the freeman pack. Probably going to try the bgnr or boaner and orange packs as well.

Hey! Got my Helix a few days ago. Don't like really the stock cabs, but IRs, wow. Makes a really huge differrence! One of my friends sent me a mega over sized cab pack and freeman cab pack from ml sound labs. I was always more a V30 guy using real cabs. The mesa cab pack sounds good but honestly not that big of a fan of the mesa sound. I really like the freeman cab pack with the V30 sounds. Sounds like a marshall cab has a nice midrange chunk, but still not totally what I am looking for. In the POD HD I used the Bogner cab with dynamic 409 mic, but to me the same cab and mic sounds worse in Helix. I am looking for a cab pack that has a really nice midrange chunk and is more "open" sounding, you know having nice headroom. something like the tone on Slipknot Vol 3. I am thinking of getting one or two of theese: BGRN cab pack Boaner cab pack Zilla cab pac ORGN cab pack Wich one would you recommend?

My Helix just arrived a few days ago, I originally ordered a Headrush 112 but got an Alesis drum monitor 112, wich is like the same thing marketed for differrent users. I think it sounds pretty decent, of course not as good as stuido monitors and doesn't moves are like a regular cab. I play bass in drop A# in a metal band. the lows doesn't seem to be as thumping as on my Hartke 410, but still has a pretty big low end. It seem pretty loud as well and I have only tested it on 4-5. I am going to test it on the weekend to know how it holds up in the rehearsal space. It is still going to be better bringing this with me than lugging around huge cabs.

I don't know. I heard pretty amazing bass tone from the Helix. Also I do play guitar too so it would come in handy on that part too.

Yeah. But wouldn't I be losing low end? I mean the low B on a string is abouth 31Hz. So a 5 string bass wouldn't sound as good as it should or with my XL410 cab wich has a frequency response of 30Hz-5KHz.

I know it is a great rig. But what is the point having it if a lot of scenarios I can't use my own rig and the other the cab is never miced up? Also what is the point of a Helix and having custom IRs if I run it through a standard bass cab? Really I would just need the HR or the PEDD for rehearsal or an extra stage monitoring. We don't play loud even though we play metal. No need for insane loudness, we want to preserve our hearing. There great reviews on it on sweetwater, and maybe 2 people said it sounded better than the headrush or the friedman frfr and was loud enough. Also the Kemper Cab is "only" 200W and many people said it is loud as hell.

Interesting, the Yamaha has a 52-20000Hz frequency response, the QSC subwoofer 38-121Hz. Got an e-mail from Tech 21 and they said the Power Engine Deuce Deluxe has a 20-20000Hz frequency response.

I had an Alto TS115A with the POD back then, sounded horrible. My concern is that the headrush lower frequency response is 46Hz and we play in A# wich is half down from the standard 5 string. I don't know if there will be enough low end.

Hey! I'm looking into buying a Helix LT. I currently playing bass in a band on a Hartke HA3500 with XL410 cabs. Sounds amazing, but hate lugging it around. Tuning in A# For frfr speakers based on reviews my choices are the Headrush 112 and Tech 21 Power Engine Deuce Deluxe. Wich one would you go with? Are these loug enough for a band practice? Drummer, 2 guitars with 212 cabs and a singer. Do they have enough low end etc? Does the Tech 21 sound more natural because it is made of wood? How big of a differrence there are? Because the Headrush is 2000W and and Tech 21 is 200W. There are pretty much mixed opinions on frfr speakers. Some say it's awesome, some say lack low end, not loud enough etc. Starting to drive me nuts.

Hey! I want to try out Helixe Native trial, because I am thinking of buying a Helix LT. I already own a HD500X so I use it as my audio interface. I use Adobe Audition 2019. inster the vst plugin. Set a track to record and turn on monitoring. The Helix comes alive but I can still hear the dry sound even though I set it to 100% wet. What am I doing wrong? Heres a pic of my setup: https://ibb.co/p3dsm4t Thanks for the help!

Hey! Can I buy seperate amp models? Or just in pack. I would really need the Line6 acoustic model, but really don't want to spend 50 dollars on the full vintage pack and models I wouldn't use.

I've tried the POD HD 500X with my valveking head, and the sound is a lot thinner than connecting directly to the amp. I've tried my ISP decimator G-String as well and it sound same as connecting directly, so theres nothing wrong with the cables or the amp. Any one had similar problems? FX loop is engaged, mix is 100%. It sounds as loud as before just a lot thinner and more high end :S

Also wondering, how would you boost your signal to get your rythm channel into lead? As my amp has only 2 channels. Before I used an EHX LPB-1 or my Memory Boy Deluxe to boost the signal as well.

Hey After using the POD HD 500X with an Alto TS112A, I'm probably going back to real tube amp, and using the POD as a multi effect only with 4 cable method. On it's own it sounded amazing, but with a band, no matter how I EQ-d, or loud it was, couldn't keep really up with the real amps. Doesn't sound as good as the real deal. I've red stuff that with the 4 cable method the tone gets muffled etc? Any experience with this? I'm probably going to use it tihe a Valveking. and switch channels via midi.

Well, hope Line6 is working on it, because W10 is almost here

Hey! Did anyone try out POD HD 500X under Windows 10? Because there are GPU drivers already available for W10, but I don't see any on Line6 website, does the Win8 driver work with Win10?

Hey! I want to practice some vocals while playing guitar, how can I set up the HD500X to have them both working?

I think I got it, at least, got pretty close to it. Also with my guitar that has X2N in it, has a lot more of that strong mid range with my subline pickups, probably an EVO would sound even better: http://www.megafileupload.com/Xe5/metalrocktone.mp3
