3leggedbrain Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Hi, When playing my acoustic guitar, I plug directly into my fishman amp and connect to my Helix via the effects return/send channels, basically using the Helix as a pedal board. In this way, will an IR have any effect on my sound? Or does it function in a different way than say reverb or delay or whatever? Thanks!

jroseberry Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 If you get the routing setup correct (send/return), you can use an IR block in Helix to process your acoustic/Fishman rig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3leggedbrain Posted August 22, 2017 Author Share Posted August 22, 2017 Thanks, Jim. Not sure if you are saying that I can only use an IR block if I plug the guitar into the helix first? I know that the effects blocks like reverb, delay and distortion work fine when I plug into the fishman and then use the fishman send/return to access the helix....

jroseberry Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 The IR block will work the same as the reverb/delay/distortion blocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
