Thank you for your reply, Bass and Coda.
the first split and merge is only to filter out one channel form the stereo digital signal, and make it into a mono signal. And the only way I have found to do this, is to create a split. I would much prefer a block to do this. and my problem is that once I have created one split that whole horisontal line can not be used to anything else.
Just to fill you in with my task. I want to use the Helix as a dual stereo vocal processor. and as there is not two balanced inputs, the best way to input the helix is by digital, so I will have one vocal on channel 1 (left) and another on channel 2(right). and I want to process them separately, both with two horisontal lines one used as a "send" the other as a direct processor, so I can not afford to use a whole line just for separating the channels.
The first EQ is a generic EQ, that will not be automated by presets and snapshots.
