The G10 is actually better than the G30. The claws of the case are very cheap (mine was broken Within 2 gigs....bad quality (cheap plastic)). G10 is far better And auto charge when plugged to his base (G30 can't)

Your bandmate just live in the past.... Or one of those anti-digital hater who critizes without have tried (or not enough), or who hasn't himself managed to get a good tone with and think that the problem comes form the machine...

You'll juste have to send to FOH from your Helix a stereo Signal (L + R). Then on the Aviom you'll hear your effects in stéréo without changin anything else. It just take 1 more input on your FOH (Guitar L and Guitar R) You'll have in stereo all inst that send L + R to FOH and anyway for the rest of Inst which are Send in Mono you can play with the "Balance"

Hey As a bass player it's nice to see this post. From what I can tell you from my own experience is that I have now sold my 2 amps to keep only the Helix and I am fully satisfied. It is true that there is still lacks in modeling of amps but it should expand with the next updates I play mainly in a group of covers and it's a pleasure to play on Helix. The amp's models are pretty good (the whole thing is to spend time on it to create presets)

Thanks! I assume the comportment will be the same for the 700

Hello, I would like to know if anyone has already tested the compatibility between Helix and a Variax 700. And if so what does work / does not work? Thanks for your replies

You have at least "$$$ for nothing" in the factory's presets. you'll certainly have to adjust it but it''ll be a great base

You could just use your Helix for Guitar AND Bass (guitar on Guitar Input, Bass on aux input) both direct to FOH via XLR and 1/4" outputs. if each of you have a wireless system as the Line6 G10 and wireless IEM, you'll just have 2 câbles from Helix to FOH (+ power) (no need for DI boxes)

Excuse my english... I meant when you're create your preset I think it's better to max the big knob and play with the CHANNEL control (thx rd2rk). Anyway I understand people who are not doing the same, in the case the 1/4" output is used for IEM for example(as mentionned above) Personally I disable it (sent to FOH). got my inst via the XLR output and my vocals via 1/4" output. don't use the big knob att all (that's why i leave it max) My IEM is not connected to Helix. The soundman send it back through an auxiliary so i can (as each of my bandmates who have an assigned auxiliary) have my personnal mix (via an app on my phone for example).

I may be wrong but it seems to me , you already have a patch for this song in the factory's preset. Use it as a base to see how it's built?

You must max your master knob...... If you need to turn up a bit (on a gig you must not do that in order to not degrade your soundman's mix anyway) you still have the option to put a block "comp/boost" (for solos for example) Anyway it's far better to set up your presets with master volume knob fully engaged and play with your gain and volume in the amp preset

Maybe you can: - up your attack time settings a little to get rid of this plucking sound - change the wave ? - lvl up your gate in your input

Ok... I don't know then.... sorry Did you check the manual (page 40 and 41)? https://line6.com/data/6/0a020a4010cb85bb66b18111e4/application/pdf/HX Stomp Manual - French .pdf it contains tips on how to adjust the inputs / outputs according to what you plug in as a type of instrument

I Don’t think so for the headphone output, cause i use some IEM sometimes (20ohm) And It Works too (i have to push higher the knob with the 250ohm headphone...normal) Did you try on the global settings to put on « guitar in pad » (for the distorsion problem)? I play Bass too on my Helix... a question that may seem stupid but if it's an active bass, have you check the batteries. It can explain the distorsion and low volume

I don't think your headphone involved.. i'm using à 250ohm on my Helix Floor and I have no problem... It seems that the stomp doesn't have any Aux IN Did you try to reduce your input value on the global settings page? -> choose "line" (instead of "inst") with powerfull active basses

Too bad so... it’s your rôle to keep a constant volume value. If you push up your master during a gig it’s not good. It’s Your soundman’s job. you can engage à boost/comp during your solo parts but normaly it’s Not very clean to modify your master....

just put the master volume at full position and rework your patches levels.....

I don't think it would be great for bass (even if i would love to try it too) we can read in the specs : Frequency response: 70 - 20000 Hz low E on bass is about 41 Hz and low B (for 5 and 6 strings players) is about 31hz ...
