I'm new here. Decided to take the plunge on helix in order to use it mainly as an adjunct to my tube amps using 4CM. However, I do play some small gigs where it would be nice to just take Helix and go direct. I have just such a gig coming up next weekend. Since I don't really know how to use Helix yet and I have seen enough youtube videos to be slightly insecure in my ability to learn to get "optimal" tones out of it between now and then, I decided to take the easy way out and just download some presets from Michael Britt for use at the gig. My plan is to go direct and use monitors for my personal sound. Using Sony MDR 7506 headphones and a Suhr strat, I was surprised to find the presets very tinny sounding in comparison to what I had been expecting based on message board comments and videos I have seen. Do you think this is a monitoring issue? Had I dialed in my own tones, they would have been much darker/fuller. I was pretty diappointed, although I haven't heard anything through FOH. Maybe they would be fine through that. My other monitoring options are KRK 6 and Yamaha DXR 8, which I haven't tried yet (sleeping children). Thanks in advance for any insights.
