Soultrainer Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Hi Some custom patches that I download from Helix community are totally silent. For example patches for Stairway to Heaven and Jeff Beck patches. http://line6.com/customtone/search/?submitted=1&family=helix&search_term=stairway http://line6.com/customtone/tone/3017791/ I try to tweak them as loud as possible but I still hear nothing and yes the amp and cap blocks are on.

cruisinon2 Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 I think more time had been wasted on Customtone than any other endeavor in human history... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Soultrainer, Well I just had a look at those 2 patches and the problem is exactly what "silverhead" noted above. When you check the input you will see that they are both set for Variax. Swap the setting to either Guitar or Multi and everything should be fine. Note: when these patches were done originally by forum user "CBTL" (AKA - Matt Helix & AC30) the Variax setting allowed him to pre-select an Acoustic model for the Zep patch and a Spank-1 for the Jeff Beck tone. EDIT: I found these instructional videos online - watch and learn. Stairway Jeff Beck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soultrainer Posted May 21, 2017 Author Share Posted May 21, 2017 Ok thanks mates for the help. I checked that volume block but didnt care too much about it since it was already 100%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
