  1. Uhm, actually I didn't get a download code clearly, but just a download link with a code within it. Will it be the code you are talking about?
  2. Ok guys, thank you for all the videos, at the end I decided to try to test better the pad option and using it with the new 3.50 factory presets seem to be a lot better than before... I don't know if that's a placebo effect or not but to me it seems that Ibanez Jiva10 pickups definitely need to be tamed a bit using the guitar pad to ON. Moreover the presets of 3.50 fw sound a lot better to my ears... but maybe it's just the pad option... Finally I have clean sounds where I want cleaner... Anyway after lot of weeks of struggle I'm starting to hear very nice sounds from this excellent gear :D
  3. Very well, I was finally able to buy the book.... I didn't suppose that an account was not mandatory to buy it :D
  4. @craiganderton So could you contact me (also in private) to see if there's a possibility to buy the book even if I cannot have an account on sweetwater ? :D
  5. Ok, I'm still trying and I found that reducing drive option obviously seems to make cleaner sounds... but I found that on many amps if I reduce drive the output is very low on volume... is that ok? At that point I can raise it up with some other block ? Is it a correct way?
  6. Hello, I'm quite new with Helix Floor.... since now I always used presets done by others but I would like so much to be able to build them by myself. So today I tried a lot but I'm facing a strange issue which I don't know if it's normal or what I'm doing wrong, I own an Ibanez Jiva10 with pandemonium pickups which seem to be a little bit hotter than normal passive ones, and when I have a totally empty patch I can hear the sound of guitar which is ok, no clipping no distortion and it's ok. However when trying to use amp + cab models, in the 90% of cases I always get distorted output, I'm quite unable to get clean sounds from quite the whole list of amps on Helix floor.... to me it doesn't sound normal.... am I right? I'm using a pair of Audio Technica ATH-m50x headphones to check the shoud so I hope they are telling the truth. (I also have an headrush FR-112 but at home it's better to use headphones for peace of mind of daughters and wife... lol...) I tried already to enable guitar in pad but still quite every amp model is distorted and I cannot get a nice clean sounds to start and add effect to... :( Second question is that I don't know very much about effects chain and I don't know what could I do if want to have both a clean channel and a distorted one in just one patch.... as if I was using a normal guitar amp with pedals connected.... (to do clean parts and distorted ones)... in fact I'm quite puzzled about the sense to add distortion pedals to already distorted amp sounds.... probably I'd need some guide or books to learn from the basics.... Anyone can help ? (I already lost a lot of time experimenting but I suspect I'm missing something and I'm a bit lost...)

    At the end I use the SM58 just for vocals and I found that it has no issues even with a lot of mic gain... so far so good :)
  8. I was looking for a book to learn how to create preset from zero on the helix floor.... and this book looked interesting.... however it's a pity that I cannot buy it since my country is not allowed to create an account on sweetwater (I live in Italy). There is really no way to buy the book in some other way?

    Microphone set up

    Hi, I too have bought a Shure SM58 and connected to Helix floor with no (apparent) output... So I tweaked a little with Mic Gain in global settings and raising it I finally hear the mic. Anyway I had to put 45dB in Mic Gain which seems a bit high to myself... I tried using guitar+vocals template patch in the Helix Floor.... but maybe is there a better way to have mic output at decent level without pushing the global mic gain so high? Maybe using some blocks ? (I'm quite new to Helix floor, so I 'd need a bit of help :) )
  10. Hi, I own a new Helix Floor and I found that switch under the expression pedal (the one used often to switch from EXP1 to EXP2) is a bit too stiff. When I play when sitted on a chair I'm not able to apply enough force with my foot on the pedal. So If I want to switch from EXP1 to EXP2 I have to raise up from the chair and push it down but it is very uncomfortable. I'm guessing if there's a way to make that switch easier to push... anyone has ideas? Thank you!!
