I usually have a volume block somewhere in my chain that I control with expression pedal. Turn your volume down with that, then change instruments.

I name mine "SHORT/LONG" word on the left is when OFF, word on the right is when ON

^ SO MUCH THIS ^

You don't have to insert a Y in the lower path. You just put the cursor on the delay on the lower path, hit the action button, then move the delay down with the joystick. It creates the parallel path for you. You may have to adjust the split and merge, but you just put the cursor on them, hit action, and move them where you want.

That is how they work. The gate has to shut when you mute the note so that it knows when a new note is being articulated.

That works most of the time for me, but there are some songs we do at church where I have to have the tempo dialed in exactly to get the right delay feedback timing ( for example: Jesus Culture, Never Gonna Stop Singing). Right now if I need a specific tempo, I create a preset that is set to that tempo. I generally play just one generic preset for everything, so I just make a copy of that preset with a different tempo, and I am good to go. I like the idea about the tenths, but maybe make it in divisions of 1/2 bpm, like scrolling through 100, 100.5, 101, etc...

Yes, if it is still under warranty. Did you register it when you bought it?

Sounds like a bad microswitch on the transmitter.

Yeah, maybe you need a small mixer so that your Apogee and Helix can share the same speakers. That way you can handle all of your guitar/bass recording/reamping within the Helix, and whatever else you are recording through your Apogee. If you try to play through Helix and monitor through your Apogee/DAW, you will get some latency between what you are playing and hearing.

It came out on 2.20 firmware: - Busy One Ch1, based on* channel 1 of the Pearce BC-1 bass preamp - Busy One Ch2, based on* channel 2 of the Pearce BC-1 bass preamp - Busy One Jump, based on* channel 1 and 2 (jumped) of the Pearce BC-1 bass preamp

Yep, that is how I do it. Dry 7/8 and full tone signal on 3/4. Both record simultaneously. I record the dry along with any track I record with the Helix any more just in case I wan't to reamp that track to something completely different at a later time. It's so easy, why not just do it every time?
-
Maybe someone has ran their signal into DAW spectrum analyzer comparing the two. I may do that this weekend just for giggles.

Start a support ticket with Line 6 even though you have had it that long. The G10 hasn't been out for a year and a half, I think it has been just over a year.

Real Fender blackface amp vs Helix – way too many pots on Helix?

Using the Apogee may be the complication. If you use Helix as your interface, you have USB 1-8 in and out available to you simultaneously.

I don't think that the high/low cut details are published, but they do seem pretty shallow. Sometimes it seems you need to turn a high cut parameter down quite a bit more than what you would normally think. If the high cut was a bit more steep, you wouldn't have to turn it down so much.

If you are running firmware 2.11 and 2.21 editor, that will cause you issues.

Some people are happy with the way running an imported IR helps decrease the "fizz" instead of the onboard cabs.

I posted this in another thread a bit ago... "A lot of people get too wrapped up with "nailing" a tone. For me, I can drop in an amp and cabinet model in Helix, give it a play, and say "yep, that sounds like a(n) AMPOFYOURCHOICE". If you are trying to nail an exact sound or tone, then you are spending too much time twiddling knobs, and not enough time playing and enjoying yourself. I don't try to nail the tones of my rigs of yesteryear, I just build a preset that sounds great to me, and crank it up." With the Helix and the endless combinations of models and routing, you will find yourself tweaking all the time. I have had mine for about a year, and I am still tweaking every time I play on my "#1" preset. 5 days is not much time. Be patient. You will pick up new ideas all the time about different combinations, routing options, etc.... You will NEVER dial in the perfect sound. We are guitar players, we never find the perfect sound. We will always be changing something. If this is your first modeler, the "digital fizz" is a big topic of discussion. My opinion is that it is a true replication of the real amp/pedal. You just have to remember that the modeler is a full range system and does not hide that tube sizzle like a normal guitar rig would. You may get frustrated at first, but keep plugging away at it. You will get to a point where you will LOVE your Helix.

So, what is your regular "gig rig" and what are you monitoring your sound from Helix on?
-
I use a gain block for "boost". You will have to play around with the drive pedal models to get them to your liking. None of the models are going to sound magical to your ears with default settings. Helix and Kemper are two completely different beasts. Helix will require tweaking to your liking.

That could very well work. Interesting...
