Ok, I see. One last question. Will the Stomp and/or HX Effects do the same job for studio purposes? I mean, I will anyway have to download Helix Native. I do not need as much i/o as the Floor or Rack provides, and Helix LT will do just fine in the higher price range when I need an entire pedal board. But if the Stomp and/or HX Effects will do the same job for recording as the floor alternatives (dry DI and the other benefits) I'd actually choose one of those to start with, and rather buy a Helix LT when I'm going to play live again. If so, which one would you recommend me to choose?

Thanks for your reply. Looks like a good month with a new Helix Floor and Pro Tools in house. A lot new stuff to learn. I assume Helix and Helix Native is compatible with MacBook Pro (2018) with Catalina installed? To date I have and old Pod UX1 with Pod Farm 2, which has not worked at all since autumn 2018 due to the 32 bit issue.

Hi, thanks for your reply. So, anything in the Line6 lineup where I can plug my guitar in and hook up to my laptop will work? I'm not stuck with Helix Floor here, it just seemed nice to have a floor unit to quickly change between effects when not recording. If you have any other suggestions I'd be happy to check them out for consideration.

I'm looking for a simple Line6 recording setup. This will be my first ever recording setup, and I do not own any other equipment today. What I'm looking for is a setup that let me record dry DI, but also get the sound I want on my ear at the same time. The purpose is to record and mix a finished guitar and bass track (dry DI), with a good demo sound on a separate track. Sound engineering and master will always be sent to professionals. I do not have too much space in my office, so I'm looking for something minimalistic (as few units as possible, hopefully only one). The less units I need to my setup, the better. I was looking at the Helix Floor unit, but I'm not sure that will do the job alone – or if it's better alternatives out there. Cost does not necessary need to be a hold back, as long as it fulfill my requirements. Multiple alternatives in the price range would be great tho. I use MacBook Pro with Catalina installed.
