It really does sound like an old name though, so that's what I've always assumed. You know, like Mu-Tron or whatever.. :lol:

Brilliant ! Is it really just a play on words and not based on some old device ? Wow.. totally had me fooled. I thought it might have something to do with those ridiculously overpriced "Bim Oto machines".. or something. After an extensive search, those were the only devices I could find online with a similar name and relating to audio.

So.. I've owned this Line 6 ToneCore "Otto Filter" module for years now, but have never known what the heck an "Otto" is. Was this filter module based on some type of an obscure device ? Or was it some old guy named Otto ? hahah Totally lost..

So basically, what you're saying is the Helix is not for Metal. Interesting. I'm not sure my point is relevant to me being a "metal head" either. I simply said the amount of non-metal pedal demos videos on Youtube far outweighs the amount of Metal there are, which is actually quite true. I also still stick by my statement that the criteria should be if it can do Metal cleanly, then it should be good for just about anything..

Uhh.. I think it's common knowledge that the amount of non-metal pedal demos videos on Youtube far outweighs the amount of Metal there are. Almost every video I've ever come across are the same.. Some guy twanging on his Les Paul or Stratocaster through a Fender. Isn't there enough of that? I think so. Actually, the new criteria should be "If it can do Metal cleanly, then it can do all of the above mentioned (jazz, country, R&B, etc.)".

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this download link you provided for use with Pod Farm software ? Wouldn't it be the same to just run a DI with guitar straight into a computer using Pod Farm software, without even using the POD XT Live hardware ? :huh:

How do you properly go out of a Line 6 stereo dock with a dual TS splitter to TRS cable? Would the cable be a Tip/Ring (red and white type) or would it just be a simple dual mono TS (black). That one confuses me and the manuals don't say anything about it.
