Hi everyone,
I’m part of a duo (guitar and drums), and I use my Helix to play both guitar and bass parts simultaneously. Here’s my current setup:
1. I connect my guitar to the Guitar In on the Helix.
2. One output goes to my Marshall JCM 800 amp for the guitar signal.
3. Another output processes the low frequencies and sends them to an Orange Dual Terror amp.
This setup works great and allows us to create a full sound. However, I’d like to add a new feature to expand our creative possibilities: using the Looper.
The issue I’m facing is:
• The Looper only works on one signal path (either guitar or bass).
• When I start a loop with the Looper, I lose the live bass or guitar signal, which limits our options.
My goal is to find a solution or a routing setup that allows me to record a loop with both the guitar and bass parts at the same time, while still being able to play live over the loop with a riff or melody.
Do you have any advice on how to configure this, ideas to optimize my setup, or examples of routing that would work for this configuration? I’m open to any suggestions, even if additional gear is required.
Thank you in advance for your help!
