By the way, is everyone still loving the helix? Got any tips for a beginner user? I've got a les paul studio I'll be using, should I be switching the settings on the helix to sounds good with a les paul? It seems like humbuckers and single coils might require different settings. Line 6 seems to have really great forums dedicated to it so that is a great help.

Hey I have a strymon mobius that has buffering options in it, how would I use that to strengthen my signal from my passive pickups for my second guitar in? Wouldn't a buffer have the opposite affect of boosting the signal? My helix arrives tomorrow and I was hoping to be able to play two guitars with passive pickups at once through it. Could someone provide a link to a product that would help with this? Appreciate it! I'm really excited for my helix I just wanted to try and get this issue resolved.

If I am understanding this correctly, the only way to use the physical Pre-amp that comes with the helix is plugging a microphone into the "Mic INPUT" on the helix? Is it not accessed when running guitar into your helix and USB-ing to the computer? I'm new to the whole thing but I owned a Scarlett 2i2 first generation which had HORRIBLE mic clipping for the guitar and I want to make sure the helix pre-amps do not have the same problem both for guitar and vocals. Does that make sense? Perhaps they didn't feel the need to include preamp models because of the studio grade preamp that comes equipped? That is a good point though, would the preamp models let you close other audio interfaces?
