Hi. Who are the artists who inspired the presets? I think I know some of them, but you can help to complete the list  ;)
 
Notes:
- Amp presets are eliminated (I hope so, if there are someone it's my mistake)
- When not sure for a preset, I will put "(?)" after the suggerences. If there are several, I will put each of theirs separate by a "|"

Dark Uncle Floyd - Pink Floyd. Not sure what the uncle means though.

Even Betta Than - U2, better than the real thing?

Fast Lane - Eagles. Life in the fast lane?

Fire Woman - The Doors. Light My Fire/LA Woman?

Mad House - Madness. Our house?

Raining Princess - Prince. Purple Rain?

Sorry for my ingnorance :wub:  Is this the name of the band?

 

 

 

I've included the name of your proposals. As there are dubts, I've write the severals bands separate by a | and a (?) sign at the end.

What would you guys think about being able to export your setlist to Excel *.xlsx or *.csv text file, edit it in Excel with all of the copy/paste/concatenate/etc. tools, then import it back in?

 

Line 6 could likely create a simple preset list Excel export/import tool in the Helix app.  A lot of software companies either build in this type of functionality or publish it in an API for third parties to develop it.

 

It may also be possible to export block settings, change values (copy/paste from others/etc.), and import back in.  This might also be helpful for checking purposes.

It seems to me while some are based on artists, some are based on songs, and some are based on just the amps which are known for a sound.  

 

Would love to see the full list complete.

And some of them simply are jokes from the development team :-)

Updated with yours comments, thanks all

I think HelixHelp.com would be a perfect spot for this list to reside ultimately.

Can't use real names. 3rd party takes a risk and gets away with it but major manufacturers can't or won't because it would cost too much for permissions or be breaking federal copywrite copyright laws.

Yes, I think so. I tried to upload the list at HelixHelp time ago, but it seems that only the owner can add content. If the owner read this: you can publish the list if you want :)

Sorry about the mis spell- I hate auto spelling correctors sometime lol. Saying what the names mean on a website is not the same thing as adding these real names in the running software. Big difference "copyright" wise.
