Yes, roscoe5's IR's, sorry meant to make that clear

Yes I am, MesRec212_2ioaD_6L6 and MesRec212_2ioaD_20_EL84.

As soon as I figure out exactly how to post a patch here in this thread as a download I'll do it, anyone who knows the exact protocol, please post it.

Peter Hamm is the most amazing human that has ever lived and I want to be like him when I grow up- thank you Pete Hamm!!

Hmm, no I didn't but it sounds interesting, maybe you could post something using those blocks ?

Am looking for a nice, warm, fat sounding old-school Ampeg B15-like patch for recording with a Fender P-bass, got one to share ? Something like this; shadows of love four tops youtube

This is exactly what I wanted to know. I took a picture of my IR list and list order just in case I blew it and needed to put 'em back manually. I haven't yet performed a factory reset since getting the unit in FEB because of the confusion over reset protocols. Whether or not IR's could be retained using ANY of the factory reset protocols. As I read it 7&8 dosen't get you 'the latest factory presets', just resets the presets you already have, yes ? To get the latest factory presets it appears 10&11 is the reset protocol, though as a consequence you lose your loaded IR's. Am very curious to see what the latest factory presets are now. I also want to get a couple of patches back that I stupidly deleted before I knew what I was doing specifically the Ampeg B15 bass patch- caled GrabN Go ?

Ahh, got it. So, there isn't a re-set protocol that retains your IR list? 'm probably just denser than most but I think it would be helpful if that were stated implicitly in the reset protocols.

The way the reset protocols are worded is a little confusing; - protocol#4 makes mention of the term 'restores factory bundle' - protocol #2 makes no mention of 'factory bundle' If I understand correctly you can restore factory presets AND retain your IR list by using reset protocol #2.. is this correct ? To be clear, I want to 1. restore the factory presets, choosing the ones I want to retain and dragging them to my desktop 2. reload my saved setlist, and Bundle while maintaining my current IR list 3. drag the newly saved factory presets from my desktop back into the HELIX

Found this at the resources page, do I interpret this to mean that reset protocol #2 does not restore the factory bundle ? Helix Floorboard 1. Holding footswitch 5+6 on boot restores Global parameters 2. Holding footswitch 7+8 on boot restores presets and setlists—THIS WILL OVERWRITE ALL USER PRESETS AND SETLISTS 3. Holding footswitch 8+9 on boot restores presets, setlists, and IRs—THIS WILL OVERWRITE ALL USER PRESETS AND SETLISTS 4. Holding footswitch 9+10 on boot restores presets, setlists, globals and IRs (restores factory bundle)—THIS WILL OVERWRITE ALL USER PRESETS AND SETLISTS 5. Helix can now restore by clearing only the current preset instead of wiping out all presets. While holding footswitches 11 + 12 6. Helix can now after firmware 1.06.5 enter update manually by holding footswitches 6 + 12

So, after backing up, reset and reloading the Bundle there's nothing in the Impulse slots ? Basically HELIX dosen't save impulse responses ?

Prior to updating the HELIX firmware and Editor I performed a setlist backup and a Bundle backup. When I restore HELIX factory presets I intend to re-import both my saved Bundle and saved Setlist. Will my IR's come along for the ride, or will I need to reload them all into their previous slots, one at a time ?

My take exactly..

Patch details and constituents are listed above in the first and 18th post, thanks!

Your're right, no one with other things to do would 'sift through 6000 amps, I was only musing that, were other amp models [ Supro for instance] available to buy as 'extras', I'd probably buy some. Have been eyeing one of the new Supro reissues lately and thought it would be pretty cool to have that amp in the HELIX. Does the HELIX have enough amps on-board to keep a fella busy for a while? Yes without a doubt. But I'd buy a Supro amp model for the HELIX if I could..

Never thought of it that way, but why are cabs different ? Why are cabinet IR's do-able ?

Just wondering if anyone is making 3rd party amplifier models/ IR's ? Or is such a thing only possible with cabs ?

Okay here are the blocks making up this preset; Amps LINE 6 Marshall/ Brit 2204 LINE 6 ElekTrik Cabs two[2] MESA 2x12 cab IR Effects LINE 6 CHROME Wah LINE 6 Red Squeeze DynaComp LINE 6 PARAMETRIC EQ LINE 6 DL4 DELAY LINE 6 PLATE Reverb

Thanks Zooey, am off to record this morning/ afternoon but will circle back later this evening and pm you the presets unless others are interested upon which time I'll post here in the thread

Thanks billorentzen, giideman, alga, EdwinV, snc6, MonkeyXt and d0stennning, am but a humble disciple of the Master[ of tone] !

Good point, although the jury is out as to which of those early tracks was recorded by which one of the three amps he's known to have used in the recording of both ARE YOU EXPERIENCED and AXIS BOLD AS LOVE- the 100wt Marshall Plexi, Fender Bassman and as you note the Fender Twin. To my ears the HELIX Fender Twin amp model didn't quite have the girth and tonal roundness of AXIS BOLD AS LOVE that the HELIX Marshall Plexi amp model does[ quite well in my opinion], so I used that and the Line 6 amp model to imiate Jimi's clean-ish and overdriven tones.

This is an instrumental track I put together to demonstrate HELIX in a vintage and somewhat ‘organic’ Marshall Plexi setting, best illustrated w/ Jimi Hendrix' AXIS BOLD AS LOVE; * the guitar a vintage Fender Oly white Stratocaster, .010 guage strings * HELIX direct into console via XLR connectors to ProTools * HELIX signal path, please see pics below * I used two[2] MESA 2x12 cab IR AXIS BOLD AS LOVE https://soundcloud.com/jonbutcher/nash-s-57/s-3Jl0c URL=http://s157.photobucket.com/user/electricfactory/media/IMG_6055_zps6xewaiju.jpg.html][/url]

Cool. I'd def buy a demo model to save a little cake. Gotta say though the HELIX isn't something I'd be comfortable buying on the secondary market, i.e. used from a private party. Too complicated/ sophisticated a piece of kit to buy w/o benefit of a warranty or some kind of manufactuer backup.

This one looks good but I couldn't find a pic of interior..
