Hblum01 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 This question is for line 6 primarily. How close did you guys aim to get with the various pots and knobs on the simulations -- not sound wise but actual taper and position. So if I need to set my master volume to 3 to get full tone on a particular amp should I be doing the same on the helix model. As an example of a different approach on the axe fx the master has a fairly linear taper so that adjustments are easier to make. Thanks!

Digital_Igloo Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 This question is for line 6 primarily.

So if I need to set my master volume to 3 to get full tone on a particular amp should I be doing the same on the helix model. Line 6's goal was to totally nail the sound and behavior of the amps, even to a fault. Where the original knob behaves in a nonlinear manner, so will Helix. If a certain real mic sounds horrible on a certain real amp at a certain distance, so will Helix. Not suggesting that our approach is better, just that it's what we've decided to do.

Hblum01 Posted October 13, 2015 Author Share Posted October 13, 2015 Thanks! Actually I think that approach is better since many of us do come from the analog world. Again, props to the line 6 team for delivering an incredible product. Howie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
