Hi All, I just got a Relay G10 (Receiver and Transmitter). I plugged in the receiver via the wall plug, and it pulses red. I plug in the transmitter (firmly seated), which even after being plugged in overnight, does not light up or show any signs of working. If I plug in the usb to my PC and open the Line 6 Updater, it sees the base (now slow pulsing a pinkish color), at version 1.00. When I try to update it, it tells me there are no updates available, which I know is not true. Any advice on either front? I have a ticket opened, but am not getting a response (yet). :(

Major discovery... I discovered that the output to PC / Headphones / Monitors sounds like I have described (muffled, lifeless, "behind a wall" sound). However, using the Helix as my audio Interface, the resulting recording sounds like I have been expecting the audio out to sound all along. That leads me to believe there may be something up with my XLR / Audio out. It was a Sweetwater Demo unit, and it may have been one for a reason? :P I am definitely leaning toward requesting a warranty swap. Would the request go through Sweetwater or Line 6? Sweetwater's website page for reporting warranty issues doesn't work and I can't find anything on getting the process started via L6's website.

Sounds very similar - will try all cables i own when i get home and record / compare to be certain. *fingers crossed*

It's like it's being played in the next room or through a wall or pillows, etc... Just having trouble bringing out crispness and the high end of any amps. I can with ALOT of EQ and Compression on certain amps, but for the most part, everything is dull, lifeless, and muffled. I wasn't thinking anything was wrong and it was just part of the learning curve. Then i looked up a lot of new amp demos or building from scratch videos. Every thing i watched / listened to, the moment anyone adds the Amp Block or Amp + Cab Block (new Lonestar for example), while it's not a great tone, it definitely sounds like an amp, and is very usable. When I load Amps or Amp+Cab, it sounds distant (regardless of mic / distance), and hollow.

Plan on doing so tonight. Is the fs numbering top to bottom / left to right? Not sure which are 9 and 10.

10 foot cable and have tried a variety of others.

Hi All, Not sure what to do, but everything sounds muffled to me on the Helix LT. Factory Presets, purchased presets (fremen), from scratch presets, etc. I am playing a Paul Reed Smith DGT and a Fender Standard Strat primarily, but have tested 5 or so other guitars of different sorts (hollowbody, mini humbuckers, noiseless vintage single coils, etc.) Speaker wise, I am using primarily a PowerCab, but have also played through an Alto 310, JBL LSR305 Studio Monitors, 4CM with a Boss Katana, and BeyerDynamic DT770 PRO headphones. All sound muffled. Should a stock amp+cab be at least somewhat usable right out of the box? I am not expecting a gig / recording usable tone, but even a brand new patch with an A+C block sounds like someone threw all the pillows in my house on my amp / speakers... Hopefully I can remember everything I have tried: Global EQ is deactivated Guitar Tone knob is turned up Amp Block has adequate master an channel volumes Guitar Pad is off in Global Settings Helix > PC is set to use Line Level Followed advise in Chad Boston's setup video Thanks!!!
