shanecgriffo Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 was going thru a few of my old pedals to sell (gotta keep the car on the road) and came to my blackstar ht dual 2 channel distortion ( the older one with the preamp tube) .. luckily i thought id try it out with the helix before relegating it to the 'for sale' pile - and..it sounds really great! tightens up the whole sound , especialy thru my mackie srm350 monitors which can tend to sound a bit wooly in the lower mids. It's making it sound more like a 'real' amp to my ears.. just putting it before the helix and using it to colour the sound with the clean channel so far. I guess dont get rid of pedals before you try them with helix, they might work well together. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodrigo_s Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 Whenever I see people online posting "selling the farm to fund Helix" I cringe a little.. just because I totally get that some of us need to sell gear in order to obtain new gear, but I've found I still very much enjoy some of the pedals I had before the Helix, with the Helix. Glad you took the time to give your effects a go with the Helix before getting rid of them. I had a BBE Sonic Stomp laying around from years ago that I decided to try with Helix, just for shi'ggles (sh*ts & giggles), and it ended up staying on my board :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
