nope, you cant use the helix reverb from the powercab. and yes, buy the best option.

ok for starters, try connecting the helix to the powercab plus, from the l6 link out - to the l6 link in. so u can control the powercab from the helix itself. u want to create a send return or fx loop block at the end of your chain in the helix. connect a cable from the send 1 (or whatever u chose) on the helix, then to the in on the beatbuddy. then out on the beatbuddy to the return 1 of the helix. if the beatbuddy has midi, then u can control everything from the helix. midi in to midi out and so forth

get a boss rc10r

haha

tryed a different guitar?

if you followed the steps you should not have any issues. plain and simple

powercab no good?

contact cleaner maybe

i think i know why i thought Reaper did 2 soundcards at once. when i used to use reaper i was on a mac. with the Aggregate Soundcards

i just went into reaper and ur right. why was i thinking different? i think because everything was set for the focusrite. sorry man i made a mistake there

you basically never need to look at Ableton, and never need to touch the mouse. it can be in the background while u have youtube up or something, and it still works with Push 2

ya i can write and record songs with 0 touching the mouse. all with push 2

or being able to select ONLY usb1/2 AND Digital. but nothing else. that would fix it. (in ONE output block on the Helix)

or i can spend more money for a 3rd soundcard and run all the outputs of the line 6 gear into it. which is what i used to do but i cant do that anymore because it broke and it wasnt any good really just a focusrite. i been eyeing the universal audio soundcard...

this is an ableton problem really. as you can only choose 1 soundcard. where as using Reaper i can use as many soundcards that r plugged in i like. but making helix and powercab share the same soundcard would make everything so easy
