amdenis Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 I wanted to use my Helix as an effects loop processor (i.e. low latency hardware effects) from my DAW via Apollo 8p interface. I assume at utility connection via the Logic Pro X DAW (correct/optimal?)l; so I wanted to know the best practices for cabling and configuration. To this point I have normally used the Helix as a floor effects processor, but I wanted to route it in for use as an alternative to purchasing dedicated rack processors. I wanted to be able to send through to the Helix from my DAW, and get back processed channel back to my DAW, using Apollo as necessary. Basically, just a cabling/routing, software/interface configuration question. I hope this makes sense and thanks so for the help-- great forum, have learned a lot (much more to go, obviously).

scopa Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Any luck with your setup. I have Apollo8 and was wondering recommended ways to introduce the helix to this. I put in a ticket w/ UAD. Will post here if helpful once they respond. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdj999 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 I have the same equipment too. I think the right way to go is out of Apollo into Helix and into DAW. That way you can use the mic/amp models from Apollo and the effects only loop from Helix. Not sure if there is a better way but that's the way I'm going for now.
