crsbobshe Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 When I place a Mod/Chorus Echo block (mono) anywhere in my Helix 2.0 chain, I seem to get an extra bit of drive/gain in my tone. Not a lot, just enough to bug me. I've tried multiple combinations of Low/High Cut, Mix and Level settings with no luck. When I A/B this block against a Send/Return block connecting a Korg SDD 3000 (same parameters) there's no extra drive/gain. Has anyone experienced this before? Is there a solution?

davidb7170 Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Was going to suggest the level control down a dB or 2, would be the most obvious, but sounds like you've done that from your post. Mix is just the balance between wet and dry signal... I've noticed a bit of a boost, but nothing dramatic. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zooey Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Don't remember, and I'm not with my Helix, but does that block have a Headroom parameter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crsbobshe Posted August 31, 2016 Author Share Posted August 31, 2016 It has a level parameter from -60db to +6db. Tried a bunch of different settings on that knob. Those tweeks make it better - less extra gain. But too quiet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crsbobshe Posted August 31, 2016 Author Share Posted August 31, 2016 Thanks. You're right, it's not dramatic. I can adjust the other blocks in the chain to balance it out - especially the other drive blocks. Considering the other great capabilities in the unit, it's a small issue.
