I have been reading other forums trying to figure out if this one performance stage scenario can exist only using the Helix.
Current setup:
Plugged into Helix currently is a guitar in the guitar in with effects going through line 1a and a synth into aux in with no effects on 1b, vocals with effects on 2a and another synth in Return 1 slot with no effects on 2b. They are all currently going out the Multi. I have USB plugged in and running Ableton Live as the interface in and out and the Helix Tempo synced to be a slave to Ableton Live's bpm.
Is it possible to:
-Create a monitor cue mix so I can hear everything plugged into Helix and any backing tracks or loops created in Ableton along with a click that only I can here in my in ears or headphones?
-Send these instruments/mic plugged into Helix as separate outs to FOH so they can mix them separately along with a separate out from anything that comes from Ableton, which would be backing tracks or loops created while playing?
Those are my 2 big questions. I am able to send USB 3/4 for example to the Cue Out in Ableton Live's Master out section, which when using my UAD Apollo twin interface for example, I can hear everything and be the only one hearing the click just fine through it's 3/4 out but I am wanting to bypass having to use another interface. I can see the audio bouncing in the little fader attached to the cue out when it's set to 3/4 in Ableton and the Helix is the interface so I know a signal is reaching that point but I do not understand where 3/4 can be coming out of from the Helix so I can hear everything going on along with the click? I understand I may need to route 3/4 to a different out within Helix, like the headphone out but to do this, will I also have to use up an entire Helix line in path for this to simply route out?
You also hear my wanting to make sure FOH can mix individually correctly if this could work. If the better thing to do was use another interface or place a mixer in there so FOH can get sound then I understand but want to know what is the best solution here. Any help or suggestions welcomed!
