This is really helpful and will need to spend time experimenting with each. The one thing that I have had different results with is Question #3. When I am down to -18db on the IRs in the Powercab, they sound muffled and way off in the distance and need to bring the volume on the PC up past 12 o'clock. If I were to bring the output block down to -3db on top of that, it would really sound even more so. I am not sure if I am doing something wrong here, but that is what it is like. When I go to -12db on the speaker output of the IR setting on the PC, the PC comes alive, but afraid that getting constant volumes is going to be hard like that. 

Using the PC primarily with loading IRs into PC. I also like IRs loaded into Helix and some stock cabs and then running into PC FRFR.

1. I notice that once I save a preset on the Helix that has the PC as the output and IRs loaded into PC, that every time I bring up that preset on the Helix the PC remembers the settings on the PC(this is great). Should I be saving presets in the PC also?
2. I am bringing most IR volume levels up on the speaker volume itself on the PC. Most IRs sound really good taking it up from the default -14db to around -12db- -10db. I am wondering if this is good practice, or should I be setting the volume levels in the amp channel volume and/or the output block on the Helix?
3. I want to have some snapshots in a preset go to the PC with IRs and some snapshots to go to FRFR with IRs loaded on Helix. I notice I have to bump the speaker output to the +6db on the PC to get it to match up with the IRs. Should I be doing this another way?
4. Have not used the stereo spreader too much yet on the 212, but would like to. Not sure how I should set up presets to get the best out of that. I could just run a single signal path with one amp and choose a stereo effects at the end, or run two signal paths with two amps with mono effects and pan hard left and right, or run a single path and do a signal split and pan hard left and right. Not sure what is the best route to get big stereo field with delays and reverbs. 
5. Can I save the wider stereo field in on snapshot and have it go back to normal in another snapshot?
6. When I send a signal out to FOH, I would have to go from PC XLR Out to mixer? Since, if I were to go from Helix, without a cab or IR block because of using Speaker or IR in the PC, I am going to be sending a signal without cabs to FOH. So, if I am using a snapshot with FRFR and Helix cabs/IRs, and coming out of PC, then the FOH gets the cabs/IRs from Helix, if I choose the IRs in the PC, then FOH also gets the PC IRs or just the default speaker? (that was a confusing one, I know). 
7. I have not explored how to use the PC just as a monitor on one of the speakers yet, not sure that I would. If I were to do that, I might just get a 112 PC. 

Of these questions making sure that my gain stages are good and equaling out volumes are the most important. As you know there is a lot of tweaking involved here. I gave up on the PC a couple of times because plugging into my tube amps is pretty simple. Even with the Helix and using 7CM with my two amps and using the Helix primarily as an effects processor, dialing in tone is pretty simple. However, I think that using the PC has so many possibilities that I want to really make this work. Thanks for any help!!

Thank you. I guess I have to get my questions together in a way that would be helpful to you. Let me put that together and send it your way. 

Thanks
