Necrofreak13 Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 I tried my best to get a Line 6 Helix - Metal video up as soon as possible so people can know what to expect and how it performs in a studio setting. Here's what I came up with https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jVRS-Z9Eb34I used the stock noise gate, screamer 808 and ANGL Meteor with a downloaded Impulse Response (Engl Special Edition) from here (http://www.freemusiciansresource.com/VST-detail/huge-collection-of-metal-cabinet-impulses/) (follow the relink in the article comments). I used an LTD Vampire Biotech M guitar with an EMG 81 bridge pickup Settings are:Noise Gate: Threshold -30db, Decay 188ms, Level 0.0dbScreamer 808: Gain 2.6, Tone 0.0, Level 6.7 Amp: Drive 9.1, Bass 4.8, Mid 7.1, Treble 5.2. Presence 6.3, Ch Vol 8.7, Master 5.1, Sag 3.2, Hum 5.0, Ripple 7.9, Bias 7.7, Bias X 6.0, Mid Boost Off IR: Low Cut off, High Cut off, Mix 100%, Level -18.0db Helix output volume: 100%Download the preset and IRChugalo Preset Download: https://www.dropbox.com/s/bohy978jakum2pr/Chugalo%20IR.hlx?dl=0 Engl Special Edition IR: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/y2ncba2glb4g71e/AAAwNUJZu_AmNg7YWU59DV4Ga?dl=0EDIT: CustomTone Download: http://line6.com/customtone/tone/1345987/ Engl Special Edition.wav 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarrellM5 Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Definitely wanting to check it out. The link you put for Chugalo Preset Download just brings me back to this page. The .wav file downloaded fine though. You should put the preset on CustomTone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Necrofreak13 Posted October 26, 2015 Author Share Posted October 26, 2015 My mistake.

DarrellM5 Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 That sits really good in a mix. Sounds pretty good on it's own as well. And great playing!!! I embedded your video in the Helix thread over on SSO; they've really been asking for some examples. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Necrofreak13 Posted October 26, 2015 Author Share Posted October 26, 2015 Awesome! Glad to hear that it worked for ya. Somebody on YouTube said that they loaded the preset and it locked up their Helix and needed a factory reset. I'm curious if that's a firmware issue, a problem brought about by not having the IR loaded first, or just a bug. Needless to say I'm encouraging people to back up all their presets before installing Custom Presets just to be safe. Either way, thanks for the share! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
