I am new to everything - just got a guitar, amp head / cab. And now the Helix. Figured I didnt own any pedals/fx might as well just start with this. Most of my confusion is routing and inputs/outputs in general.
I am using the 4CM tube amp head + cab. If I put in a pre-amp after the Send/Rec block I get some really great tones. How does this work? Can you explain how the pre-amp block is applied? Can I use modeling Amps / Cabs./ Mics in addition to my physical amp + cab in this scenario?
if you dont add a send/rec FX block - you lose the ability to put FX before and after the amp, is that it? (for my 4CM method)
Thanks,
Scott
