  1. That Was an example. The volume works on XLR and USB as well as through the headset and yet, not with an amp here, any amp. I'm glad it worked for you which would mean the assignment is fine. It... like the other 24 presets I have set works exactly the same with the volume. I have no interest in selling my presets. and I did say Guitar>helix>amp it's right up there above.. with the volume sample.. and more on the subject above that. heh, and, no, I do not work for the CIA I am old and finally retired after 45 years in the same job. I have also put that It was on exp1 and that using Exp2 and 3 all do the same thing I also wrote that it , in fact, works on the XLR as well as USB. ( also see above ) Never mind, I can see I am getting no where . thanks anyway if it works for everyone that looked, then there is a problem that forums couldn't help no matter how little or much I show or explain This is why I didn't ask for help earlier
  2. Helix came back from Line 6 for repairs 9 months ago, no changes to any globals since I got it back Big Vol works on XLR and 1/4" 1/4" out set for inst as from factory Only the volume goes from 0% at 0% then 100% at 11% on 1/4 smooth 0-100% as it should on XLR any other use of any exp pedal also works smoothly both on XLR & 1/4 outs same results on exp2 and exp3
  3. volume.hlx guitar>helix>amp
  4. I was thinking about that ..instead of sleeping last night.. I run from guitar to helix then USB to comp ( all is well ) Head phone jacks ( all is great ) XLR to monitor speakers ( sound isn't as good, but volume , again works perfect.. sound I blame on my old presonus monitor speakers .. live, I am mic'ed ) For the Amps: 1/4" jacks out to amps Tube has simply Treble, Bass and volume.. that's it.. I run 5/5 and at 4 on volume for the tubes to kick in SS Treble, Mid and Bass plus Volume and Master.. pretty much everything is 5.. I adjust Master and Volume , depending, to match Tube level Nothing between Helix and amps. No comps anywhere save on Helix, when there is one and it is before the volume. Any out settings is still from factory I mess with my "presets" and" Snapshots" mostly. Other than setting how I see the board, I haven't changed anything that I haven't reset over the years. I run Strat through 1/4" in SG w/ active pickups- Aux in , as it is wireless Variax through the Variax cable All go through the Helix and the above out . I can set up with all of my Helix effects in stereo or simply nothing but a blank mono with nothing at all but the volume.. all the same, volume works on everything but 1/4 out or the amps, haven't thought , till during the night , to change the monitors to 1/4 to check that. I don't normally have anything in the return/send , other than Talkbox, which only goes to one of the guitar sets. Volume is controlled by the Exp 1. I use a second exp pedal for wah... but, again, I have a blank preset w/ just volume and it plays out the same as having everything set up. IE all or nothing on volume.. Granted, I know the ear can be " off" on hearing the changes, but it is only "off" going through the amps... and I get crud from sound folks about not hearing solos or rhythm being too loud without me messing w/ the guitar to change level or setting up a boost switch.. or fuss with the master volume w/ my foot while I play..which is sketch. That is absolutely everything I can think of to explain... Maybe a factory setting someplace? Some built in comp after the presets going to 1/4" only? Sorry, lots of words trying to explain fully.. an example won't help much as anything and everything or nothing all work the same w/ the amps
  5. Ok, I have tried looking both here and Youtube but it seems I do not know how to phrase the question. Most of the time I use my Helix straight into the computer and all is fine.. Now I am getting ready to head back out live and fighting with my volume control on the board to vary the DB coming out of the amps as I do w/ the comp.. At the end of the chain( s) I have my volume pedal ( Exp 1) ON the comp, I have smooth control of the volume from 0-to 100%. I can hear it, I can smoothly go from rhythm to lead and back.. Depending on the parts I play, I adjust from normally 30% up to 75%, then any solo is usually at 100%.. no problem... With my amps, one is tube, the other SS... AT the end of the chain, I have 0% sound and at 10% I have what sounds the same as 100%. If I move the volume to the beginning of the chain I, of course, just cut the signal so that I have clean vs dist, but again, no sound-100%.. I have been fighting this since 2017 so, not a new problem, I just finally am asking for help. Yes, I can just set up a button w/ gain, but , it just doesn't sound the same nor does it flow the same.. and using two amps, I can't just use a foot pedal on an amp.. I don't dance that well anymore.. What am I messing up? I have tried my normal stereo setups and went back again to mono w/ the same problem... Too loud or too quiet on stage. The amps are mic'ed ..btw... Thanks for any help Z
  6. getting the error 8200 on Studio one 5 w/ the update. worked fine this morning before I did the darn update. it's the only comp that it is authorized on. disconnected the anti V before I downloaded and set up plus it now crashes Studio One.. ............ Well, I unauthorized the comp and re authorized.. still 8200 error plus it crashes Studio One over and over... Seems next step is to delete Native from the comp..too bad this "update" third time's a charm...whew
  7. chuckle* yup same time as you posted the info thanks
  8. ok , that made me think... I went into global.. to stomp setting and turned it off rather than any of the other settings... for these last couple minutes it stopped the insanity.. though not positive by any means..
  9. I have the board ,using the preset for my strat comp-dist-wah-delay-amp-rev If I click the " amp" off..it'll throw up the window to reassign. I hit cancel.. , I turn on the wah.. Do you want to resign? usually the amp Cancel turn off the wah Do you want to resign? Fine=reassign.. changes nothing Do you want to reassign? ok ( again) do you want to reassign? Then it will throw multiples under the same button and then it'll ask to re-assign while I am trying to find out what it just threw all together no matter what is the "target" in the window No matter what I touch no matter..well anything totally random on where it wants to put whatever it wants to put.. If I touch a bypass ( so basically use the board ) it starts all over again. Today is the worst .. I had weeks where it was happy.. That'll teach me to dust it.. didn't change any settings.. I go to a preset that I haven't changed, used forever and now all over again Do you want to assign a bypass?.. No idea what for on that one.. It doesn't say At least on the preset I was working on earlier ,it would show up in edit when I have the assignment window up drives me nuts Shipping is like $100+ so it would be nice to figure it out I have done resets/updates/factory resets/ redownload-updates several times.. yup
  10. I have tried to find the answer in the forums and other places, so sorry if it is out there somewhere. My Helix floor went crazy this last summer, had to send it in. Once I got it back it has been driving me nuts: When I set up my blocks Helix throws up the "assign bypass" window. For whatever reason, it does not like where I assign whatever... I can then let it have its way putting the bypass switch order into chaotic crap rather than where I want/ need them.. and as soon as I try to turn on/off something it wants to change it again. I can not even adjust settings as Helix keeps throwing me back to whatever it is tripping about... and worse... Presets that have not had problems ever before are now doing it.. every preset.. The thing is MAD.. I have to assume that there is a setting somewhere " Presets gone wild" or" Jack the musician up constantly".. but not sure where that might be. I have changed the order on how the blocks are laid out, though, of course, that changes the sound.. sometimes it makes the Helix happy but then it ruins the effect chain.. I have started over from scratch, I have the latest downloads for both Edit and board.. Nothing fixes this... Thanks
  11. must be my browser then because short of the links you guys gave me, there is nothing but notes when I go through the software downloads. Thanks got it now.
  12. Ok , feeling like an idiot. I remember having trouble the first time around trying to find the download for the computer software. I am in a circling line of death here. I look up the new Helix software for the computer & get sent to the notes for Helix v 2.11.0 Editor release /firmware notes. which sends me back to software download page. I have looked at Helix/Helix/ Win 7 , w/ & without Beta / archived ...Helix/all/Win 7 and all /all/win 7 . All I find is the Helix 2.10 firmware update....Is therre another version of the win 7 software past 1.11 ? sounds like there is but I can't seem to find it in any search in any section I have tried... Thanks
