Thank you for the reply. Off to ask support !

One of my switches is getting harder to press down on. It seems to need lube. I found this video online about maintenance and it looks complicated. I wasn’t even sure if this would fix the problem. Has anyone else had a switch become tough to push down? Interesting since I got it back for an authorized repair on one of the LEDs 2 months ago.

So awesome of you to respond with this. I've been really confused about this topic for some time. I had heard about some people mentioning impedance when it came to fuzz; now that you've explained how much character it adds I see a little more importance to it. I am definitely a modern player and don't touch any of the drives except the Minotaur and the Horizon Drive. This makes my life a lot easier, I was looking at all kinds of passive and active splitters/buffers and it was getting expensive. Plus my board is crowded as is. I'm going to skip having a splitter and just use a free Send/Return to achieve what the splitter was going to. I set all of my presets at 1M. What's funny is my guitars have the same pickups, but my Baritone clips the Helix input at 1M. So I guess it hits too hard lol.

For sure. I guess I just thought the 1Meg input impedance would act as a buffer for a long cable run already. The buffer is a JHS Buffered Splitter doesn’t say but honestly I think I’ll just split the signal in the Helix itself instead. I can use the send and returns like I have been. I just wanted to find a way to free up a send return!

I’m using a long cable before my Helix. I’m going to add a buffered splitter before the Helix and was wondering if I should change the input impedance because of this. I usually run everything at 1Meg.

Oh snap! That makes a lot of sense. Thanks a lot !!

Hello! I’ve been wanting to understand how the Bitcrusher on the Helix works. I studied other Bitcrusher units but none of them have the parameters “Open,” “Close,” “Hold,” or “Decay.” Does anyone have any info on what these might do? Thanks a lot !
