fukuri Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 After all lot of experimentation I think I'm there Helix King of tone B9 Soldano clean model XLRs straight in to the PA with a dual cab model going left and right with 2 X 1x12 models Split before the cab models and output 2 via 1/4 going into 2 Fryette Powerstations and 2 1x12 cabs either end of the stage At full blast it is a might mighty experience but with all the dynamics I need I had a great time extending some solos and really working with light to heavy picking dynamics Punters were blown away and the band were loving the sheer size of the sound I'm deaf but happy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fukuri Posted March 26, 2016 Author Share Posted March 26, 2016 Not just now its packed away but I'll take some next gig I should do some recordings although it's more how it feels under the hands ...if you know what I mean The King of tone is a stunning drive pedal at Volume Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eenymason Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 A few questions... Which speakers/cabs do you use? Full modelling - or just pre-amps in Helix? Do you only use the Soldano model in the Helix? If so, why bother with a modeller? Yea, OK that's more than a few... B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B) I use an orange ppc 1x12 with an Alnico blue in it and a Friedman PT 1x12 with a G12 65 greenback Virtually the 1x12 celestial 80 Full modelling - the preamps just don't sound right Just the soldano ... Why bother with the modeller? Because it's there and it saves me bringing 2 heavy amps The power of the Helix is not in the modelling for me. It's in having 10 buttons for FX and almost unlimited combinations I should take a pic as it would be quicker but my layout is 1. Minotaur (always on clean boost so I could afford to lose the button and do in some of my patches ... Replacing it with a harmony button in my trooper patch or my Detroit Rock City patch for example) 2 simple phaser (pre drive) 3 loop 1 KOT toggle on/off (off is clean on is 100% wet) 4 Toggle OCD (more drive) on : KOT off (if button 3 has the KOT off this will toggle straight to clean, if it is on it will give me the KOT crunch) 5 Looper 6 Down (momentary octave down 50/50 mix) (are you gonna go my way and Black night) 7 UP (momentary up 100% wet) just for giggles. Hit a harmonic and step on it on the off beat .. 8 Gray Flanger thick wide and stereo 9 dual delay set up about 400/800 wet mix controlled by external exp pedal 10 Chorus - for Queen and Whitsnake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
