A spectacularely clear and usefull presentation ! Thank you !

Thank you ! I am "evaluating" Helix right now. So far I may be leaning somewhat more towards Fractals Fm9 ( when available ) It seems to have more processing power witch could mean less limitations in future upgrades. Helix has been out using the same hardware for a while. I really wonder if they are not about to replace it... Anyway, the entire modeling thing is completely new to me. I always believed it couldn’t sound as good or respond as well as an amp. That seems ta have improved a lot. SO I got tired of having to destroy my hearing in order to get a rig to sound good and to much stuff to grad along... plus the cost... The example you built for me answers my question just fine, as well as you comments. Thank you very much ! truly appreciated !

Hi again, still very new to this and wondering : Is it possible to have two sparate ouput path with different blocks ? Suppose I want to setup an amp with two Irs going out the XLRs and with no cab sim or Irs out the 1/4 (going to power amp and cab) CAn this be done and, if so, how ?

I take it you are not such a big fan of Helix then, but you seem to be active here... Am-I correct to assume you use Fractal in live situations ?

Humm, do Fractal or Headrush have such a feature ?

Well I think I found the main issue. I upgraded the firmware to 3.11 but forgot to go back to Global settings... the volume control was still active on the XLR outs. Removing that changed everything. Sorry guys, It seems my inadequacy made you waste time... Yet, I am wondering if you have a simple procedure to level all patches for volume. There is a gigantic difference in volume between clean and driven tones... What is the best way to level them without cahnging tone ? Thanks again !!

Are you saying I should have that pad ON ? I use P90s and PAf stile Hbs...

HI, thanks for the response. I am a bit confused here. When you say "potential mismach" you are refering to the routing from helix to the PA ? About the loop return, I expected this would work better than going in front of the amp. I am testing this setup to figure eventual live play where I would need/want something behind me on stage...

I am completely new to Helix, or modelers for that matter. I tend to use clean tones a lot ( jazz and other melleow trends ) Seems impossible to get a completely clean tone. Even with no blocks enabeled, simply a solid strum on any of my guitars prduces distortion. I have the output set to MIC going to a PA system and the 1/4 inch set to intrument going to the loop return of a guitar amp. I have set a low pass at 10K and high pass at 90hz Any clue how I can get a solid clean tone ?
