This my interpretation of tom petty style sound. https://soundcloud.com/pearly-gates-66/summer-nights -
New active cab for modellers. From UK Matrix FR12 active Cab http://www.matrixamplification.com/ I don't know the price. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GFpdLBEA1i0

Yes but he's not God. And for most people Kemper is even too much it's not the right product. I don't like Kemper design, it's ugly to me (rack is better) and has too much knobs and push buttons. The reason why i bought Helix it's because i like the innovative design UI, extremely user friendly, and obviously sounds good, react like a real amp this is important. I read this review http://www.tonymckenzie.com/line6-helix-effects-unit-floor-pedal-inside-and-out-review.htm I've seen what there is inside, (good stuff) so i decided to bought it even it's a little expensive.

bingo! they are full of prejudices but they don't really know how Helix works, If someone post an A/B comparation they say it's a trick! kemper sounds better than Helix can't be very similar. a video like this

in Italy many are obsessioned by Kemper it's a like the holy grail and they think Helix is another pod. When i chat on the guitar forums there no way to break the wall, there is only one: the kemper. In former times it was the same with Apple (before Steve Jobs died) you couldn't make any critic, it was blafemy. They can't understand Helix it's another game...but anyway it could be upgraded a lttile more :-) https://soundcloud.com/pearly-gates-66/sunshiny-day

Anyway The organ is sold separately 3,99 dollars, buy it! I think the newer 18 artists bundle is more interesting at 18,99 dollars.
-
Yes it uses only Helix internal stuff. it's very cheap, buy it.
-
Yes i tweaked...now i don't rember well..but i switched off leslie (or i selected slow speed?) and a spring delay that is in the patch but has no footswitch. to have a more focused sound. I played only a note at a time max two...no more. Now i'm working and i don't have helix here.
-
thanks I Bought a patch made by Glenn Delaune...it's cheap and it's cool.

I'm happy with my Helix, it's a studio in a box and now i need less track to achieve fullness in the mix. A little blues everything except drums are made using a Squier Telecaster CV, Helix directly in a Notebook. Almost no effect from DAW, except maximizer and compressor, the usual things. Organ is made using the guitar too. It's a thing made in a couple of hours on sunday afternoon only for fun. https://soundcloud.com/pearly-gates-66/night-in-blues-1

Graphic view for all the Eq blocks in the editor
Paolo_Maina replied to Paolo_Maina's topic in Helix
I think they are reluctant to make any mod inside Helix but maybe they could be less reluctant to modify the Editor. -

Paolo_Maina replied to Paolo_Maina's topic in Helix
maybe i already voted for it so i can't vote it again. You meant graphic view inside Helix and i think it's impossible but in the editor is more doeable. In the same waythe RTA could be implemented in the Editor easily than inside Helix. -
I use sonar and helix connected through USB to a Toshiba notebook with w10 and i have absolutely no problem. This is a song of mine. https://soundcloud.com/pearly-gates-66/sunrise All songs of my channel are made using Helix.

i haven't an opinion about it, i'm lazy i use the default setting, but i have collected a lot of Free IRs. It takes a lot of time to try each cab, i think it's boring. It's a jungle, too much options sometimes are worst than no options. This is a reason because many people don't like multieffects...too much things to set up...and Helix is most user friendly ever made! It's like a pandora box you start changing a mic, then the distance, then the eq of the mic, then a IR, then a mix of two cabs, but you are unsatisfied so you come back changing mic and distance and the mix of the two cabs, so on and on. At the end, drained, you come back to use Amp+cab block a overdrive and a reverb. It's like when I mix a song of mine, before i made a lot of tweaks eq, compressor, multiband, limiter delays, doubling, etc. now i've learn that less is more. And Helix helps me a lot now, i need less guitar tracks to achieve a fuller sound. https://soundcloud.com/pearly-gates-66/sunrise Maybe you have some good suggestions about it (i mean cabs IRs etc.)

I use sennheiser HD380 PRO headphones when i make Home recording and I have no problem. Very confortable and good Q/P rate.

Rest is ok. To be brief and concise. P.S. I bought Glenn DeLaune's organ simulation patch...great patch. You play at church maybe it could be useful for you. It's cheap.

Best effect of helix : univibe.Worst: fuzzes are uncontrollable they seems always full throttle (I own a real Keeley fuzz head) I wrote a request idea for less extreme fuzzes. I don't like also Leslies. Timmy is very good KWB is very good. Best amp: Matchless. The rest is ok

His nickname at school was "Brief and Concise". :D :D :D
-
It would be nice if all Eq blocks could have a graphical view in the editor as the global eq .

the title is ironic but it's a real story. who you gonna call?
