Hey all; I've been looking at getting a Helix soon, and with the newly released LT, I'm a little confused on what to go with. My main hold up is the Vocal recording capabilities, I'm not too knowledgeable regarding vocal recordings, but if anyone that is can chime in that'd be great. I know the LT doesn't have a mic preamp, though I'm curious if the original Helix's vocal recording capabilities are worth the extra cash versus just getting an audio interface such as the Scarlet focusrite to record vocals through? While I know I can get a focusrite for much cheaper than the difference between the LT and the original, the original does obviously have a couple enticing features in addition, but I'm mainly curious if the vocal recording capabilities of the helix would leave anything to be desired?

Cross-posting from another board, just realized its probably better to post this here: Hey all! I've recently acquired my 500x and l2m frfr speaker, and I have a pretty simple question; what's the best way to connect these two for optimal quality? Currently I'm connecting them with an old 1/4" speaker cable that's on the fritz so I'm looking to buy a new solid cable. I saw some mentions of a TRS 1/4" to XLR cable, instead of simply a XLR to XLR or a 1/4" to 1/4". Can I get some insight on this? Thanks guys!
