email me if you are interested as I don't frequent the forums very much since I started building my own guitars. rossjjohnson@gmail.com http://www.singtall.com/singtall-guitars/

I'm gonna sell my Helix. unfortunately I just don't use it. I got it to make presets but there's just not enough interest to justify keeping a pedal that I haven't turned on a dozen times. It's still sitting on the same shelf in my studio. first $1200 gets it. shipping included in the continental US. And yes, It is loaded with all of my Singtall presets.

after 6 hours i gave up and decided reboot and try it again. first i pressed 6 and 12 keys while rebooting. updater didn't recognize the helix anymore even though windows did. installed the newest HX editor then tried updater again. running that update quickly now. it appears to be a usb driver issue. i didn't have to switch usb ports, but i did have to install hx edit 2.8 to get the new drivers. my suggestion: backup your unit using the old hx edit. then install hx edit 2.8 but don't run it. run editor. should be good to go.

I just went through and lowered the volume of all presets to make sure there is no digital clipping anywhere. the new presets are in the folder named "lowered volume presets". the ones at higher volume are still in the pack also. you can decide how loud you want the presets to be.

I had some Helix hiccups and it effected the volume of some of the presets and in some cases effects were added that weren't supposed to be there. If you bought the preset pack 2 please download the presets again with the same link that i sent you by email. I also added an instruction pdf file that may be helpful.

give this a try. Boston - Peace.hlx Boston.wav

pick a low gain amp like a plexi and crank the gain. add an eq before the amp and boost mids around 600hz by 12db. that's the start of the tone.

the IR's were made by Fremen many years ago. He shared them with me and I used one of them to make presets for the Atomic AmpliFire. Those initial presets became factory presets! His IR's are warm old Marshall sounding. they work with a lot of stuff. I loaded up his IR's in slots 1,2,3 and i mostly use 1. if you load one of my presets and it calls for an IR then chances are it's IR1. but try them all for a slightly different flavor. notice that i use the IR plus a cabinet or two mixed to get the best tone. i am working on separate presets for artist and studio. this first pack was more designed for getting a good studio or live tone. i included a couple artist presets just for fun. working on a pure artist preset pack now.

i added some free presets to my new website. feel free to try them out. remember that i use snapshots, sometimes 6 per preset to take advantage of different effects combinations, so try them all out. www.singtall.com

on many of my presets i use several cabinets in combination. i use my first IR and then two factory cabinets. make sure you load the IR's included with the superpack. i have them loaded in location 1, 2, and 3. you can load then wherever you want as long as you remember to assign the correct IR to the preset then save it.

if you don't hear from me within 24 hours of sending payment please use the contact form on my website to let me know. i've at least case so far that i didn't get notification for. thank God that the guy contacted me so that i could send the download link to him.

I went through all of my presets today and named all of the snapshots, plus added a few more snapshots to most of them. added a Van Halen One preset based on the first album tone. this preset is a preview of the artist superpack that i'm working on. you guys that already purchased my Singtall pack will get that preset plus all of today's updates by clicking on the download link that i emailed you when you first bought the Singtall superpack. thanks guys.

i finally had surgery on my back the day before Thanksgiving. now i'm going through meds withdrawal. lol. the good news is that i'm gonna have 6 weeks of time at home to work on presets. yippee.
