    Possibly not with this one, Peter. The guy is using a Mac so no driver issues like the Windows crew. ;-)

     

    OK a little different, your right!

    Maybe it's the FS6+FS12 thing?

     

    " If your Helix ends up in a bad state due to a failed firmware update, first perform a factory reset by holding footswitches 9+10 (Helix/LT) or encoders 5+6 (Rack) during boot up. Then reboot and enter update mode by holding down footswitches 6+12 (Helix/LT) or encoders 1+6 (Rack) Make sure to try this out on multiple computers in case of poor USB connections."(by Line6Will)

     

    or maybe it is a mac driver issue???

    I meant to ask Peter why he used a ducked delay, but I only remembered to quote ppoceiro in my previous post?

     

    Sorry, I don't really know. :D  Maybe because of the low/high cut

    It was just an example, a screenshot from a Fremen-Preset. It was the first one with double tracking I found in my list.

    (He also uses other delays for double tracking.)

  3. as explained in the manuel you can use a lower value for a "softer" feel and a higher value for a "tighter" feel.

    Most time I leave it on auto too. You have to try for yourself what sounds best for you.

    I'm now interested in combining that with Peter's idea...

     

     

    ...but using the pitch delay.

    I got the idea from the FREMEN preset pack. He uses it in some stereo metal presets. Sounds really good with headphones.

  6. Have you tried FS 6+12, reinstall HX Edit2.81(drivers are included) ?

    ...if nothing helps, maybe you have the option to start the update from annother computer

    ...

    " Trow the Helix through the window??? " - That could also eliminate the update problem ;)

  7. You can split the signal chain to two amps. Then use a delay  (mix 100% / time 2-8ms) befor one amp. Or you can use the "double tack" modulation block.

    But double tracking works only in stereo (headphones, stereo pa). I would not use it on stage. In mono, you have frequency overlaps/ phase issues and it does not sound really good, more like a chorus. (...my opinion)

  8. I'm also guessing a hardware issue and would open a support ticket.

    ...You can try a reset(don't forget the backup), but I don't think it will help.

    ( Holding footswitch 9+10 on boot restores presets, setlists, globals and IRs (restores factory bundle) THIS WILL OVERWRITE ALL USER PRESETS AND SETLISTS )

    The PowerCab amps have XLR outputs on them that send the incoming signal out, either unaffected, or altered by their speaker and apparently additional mic modeling.  (I'm looking at the 212 Plus model) So, the path for that side is Helix to L6 Link out, L6 Link in on the PowerCab, and XLR out on the PowerCab to the main house PA.  I can also take the L6 Link out on the PowerCab and daisy chain to a second PowerCab.

    That way the cab gets a mono signal, and sends it to the house as well.  Meanwhile, the XLR on the Helix would feed the in-ear system... Since you confirmed the Helix can have 4 separate mono outs effectively, this should be possible.

     

    Based on your diagram above, option 2 is exactly what I need.  The top path will feed the PowerCab, and daisy chain to the house.  The bottom path will feed my in-ears.

     

    If you, or someone doesn't mind, could you set that up in Helix Edit and take a screen grab so I can see how the routing actually works in the unit?

  10. The Helix has 2 separate paths, each you can split once (then you have 4 outputs in mono or stereo). Or you can send the signal from path1 into path2(then only 2 outputs). What do you mean by "House"? But if you use the left XLR for your In-Ear, you cannot use it for your "House"

    You have 2 options:

     

    1.(needs more DSP)             

                                                    /Digital (L6-Link)

                                                 /                                        
    PATH1: guitar > amp+cab

                                                 \

                                                    \ 1/4  (House???)
                                                                                                                                                                                                                          

     

    PATH2: guitar > amp+cab > Doubler FX-- XLR(stereo)

     

     

     

    2.     

                                                        / Digital(L6-Link)

                                                     /

     PATH1+2: guitar > amp+cab                       
                                                     \                         

                                                       \ Doubler FX -- XLR(stereo L+R)

    If you listen to video the feedback delay keeps on going longer than any delay on the helix. 

     

    But if you set the feedback on the helix to 100%, it should go on endless. So maybe you have annother problem in your preset?

     

    ..."datacommando" has already explained everything well

    Hi folks,

    It seems to me that you didn`t quite catch my problem. But meanwhile I solved it. Here is the solution:

     

    I had to hold the button No 6 and 12 down, that is the both right buttons, while turning the helix on. Then the helix goes to the boot modus and the update can start.

     

    So you see: overbearing artful dodgerness doesn`t help, but knowledge.

     

    Have a nice day and note down

     

    Your right, you can enter update mode manually by holding footswitches 6 + 12. Sorry, no one mentioned that in this topic.

    But because you wrote: "probably forgot to update Helix Edit / The Helix shows: Boot failure, Entered Update Mode" updating HXEdit was the obvious solution.

    There was no feedback from your side, so nobody could further narrow down the problem. ...so please do not complain ;)

    But good that it works now.
