Parallel routing, like in Boss GT-1000

[scias23]

There's a feature in Boss GT-1000 where there's a number of parallel routing options, like this:

 

I'm kind of hoping for the same feature in Helix. This is killer if Helix would have this because we won't be needing to dedicate the entire second path just to make an effect or amp routed in parallel

 

I'm wondering if the current code architecture can allow this to happen.

 

Hmm

In Helix each path can have a parallel path.  So in reality you can have 4 paths in Helix in parallel. If you only want two paths in parallel then just use one path and you can still have the bottom path for something else. Or am I missunderstanding what you want?

Yup we have 4 paths. What I am saying is like "virtual parallel split". So you wont have to sacrifice the whole 1B path just to have two amps in parallel

[reginaldStjohn]

Ok, so I think what you are trying to say is that you want to be able to use all the slots in each path but have different split and return points for each of the other path's slots. So for example, you split path 1A after say a noise gate and add two overdrives in parallel. Then you join them up again. That uses one slot in path 1B. Then after your amp you add a split and use a chorus in parallel with the cab block. Then join them up again. That uses a second slot in path 1B.

 

Add it as a feature request. This sound possible but would require extra resources to do the multiple splits and mixing back together at each stage.

I already got a response from Igor from the Facebook group, he said if now, no. But in the future it's possible, but hard to do and will require lot of resources.

 

Well.. :(
