Ok, so it turns out that it's working as I wanted but only if you have two cables plugged in at the same time. I was switching a single cable between the L & R outputs expecting to hear one output with an IR and another without but in the absence of two cables it's not how the Helix works. I found a post from a user called mstoffel who nailed it.

Hi folks, I'm trying to create two independents outputs for FOH and backline on the Stomp XL. I've created a Y-split and moved the IR to row B for FOH and IEMS, pans are set to hard left / right accordingly. Row A is for backline via a poweramp. If I then listen to the row A output and then activate and disable the IR on row B it affects the sound on row A, almost like there's some kind of partial crossfade between the two outputs. I've tried playing with the pans where the Y-split rejoins row A and it makes no difference. I don't want to use the FX sends because I have some external pedals hooked up. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
