Thank you for your reply Silverhead I know there’s quite a few different effects for pitch shifting so didn’t really know what was the best one to use & if it was possible to get the sound of the bass notes whilst also getting the normal guitar sound at the same time.. would that be to do with the mix level on the chosen pitch effect?

Hi there fellow Helix Users! Although I have had my helix for quite a while I am trying to experiment with as many different sounds as I can & now I am in a new 3 piece band who do not have a regular bass player I thought it would be a great opportunity to explore what is out there for Guitarists who need there guitars to also sound like a bass without using any external pedals like a pog/pitch shifter in the helix FX loop.. so what ideas have you got for me if there are any other threads on this subject I do apologise & if you could please link me to them that would be great! I am looking for either a custom tone to download or a good way to start making the patch myself.. many thanks Frankie x

I take it you can still run a wet/dry/wet rig with doing that as long as you set it up right in helix? I have just received my TC Helicon VLPE & have incorporated it in with the helix which works great! Thanks again for everyone's help! Kyle

Great! Thanks guys! I did think it could be that the Firehawk is behind me & therefore feeding back. My next question is how do I route my Vocals to only the mixer if my helix outs are plugged into my Firehawk monitor ins & then the Firehawk outs into the mixer is there a way to stop the vocals going through the amp in this set up or will I have to set it up different so the vocals are only going through the pa? Thanks again guys for all your help! Kyle

Hi all! I am sort of new to the Firehawk 1500 & using it with my Helix floor unit & need some help setting it all up to process vocals through it as well as the PA.. I have actually managed to get the vocals going through my Firehawk amp & the PA but seem to be getting a lot of feedback when doing so! I have the mic going into the helix mic pre & running the helix outs into the monitor ins on the back of the amp & then running the Firehawk outs into my Behringer UFX1604 mixer/PA. I am using the amp in stereo wide setting as a FRFR Wet/Dry/Wet setup for the guitar which sounds great but just struggling to cancel out feedback I'm getting from the mic.. I have been working on the mic gain setting in global settings in Helix but haven't managed to find the right balance between the mic & guitar levels. I have just purchased a TC Helicon Voicelive Play Electric which I want to incorporate with the helix when it arrives & have seen this cool video of how to link a TC Helicon pedal to the Helix & still be able to use the Helix mic pre but be able to access the vocal harmonies from the TC & it will still detect what key you're playing in. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=MZC5QZocKLQ I will only be using the VLPE pedal for vocals effects/harmonies NOT guitar. So is there anyone out there who can help me set this up properly so I'm not getting horrific hissing feedback? I would be so grateful for your help/advice & suggestions! Kind regards Kyle

Hi again! I've set it all up but when I switch between A100 & B100 it just seems to be playing through both amps at the same time still not switching from one to another I think I followed the steps correctly but could be wrong..

Thank you very much Darrell I will try that later & let ya know how I get on.. Thanks again!

Can you use the helix as an ABY switch between 2 amps? Cheers

Hiya Guys! I'm new to Helix & absolutely love it! However, I'm looking for some help in how to use the helix as an ABY switcher for 2 external amps (DT50 & an acoustic amp) & several guitars. I know there is a thread talking about ABY switching within Helix amp models but I was wondering if this is possible with 2 real amps? Any help or advice on whether this can be done & if so how to set it up would be greatly appreciated! Cheers, Kyle

Hey folks! I'm new to helix & was wondering if it's possible to create an aby switch for 2 external amps (DT50 & my acoustic amp) & using several guitars if so how would I set this up? Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Hey guys! I've been reading through this thread as I want to use my DT50 & my acoustic amp with the helix but switch between the 2 or have them both playing at the same time.. would be greatly appreciated if anyone could tell me how to set up the switching like using the helix as an aby as I'm new to all this & havent a clue at the moment lol Cheers in advance anyway 😊
