macnevine Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 I have tried various wahs but each time, in a clean sound, it has too much gain. I put the way as the first effect in my chain. Any advice on how to make the wah not so hot in a clean snapshot or preset. I just want a really clean wah where I can do some funky chops.

zolko60 Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 You have "Level" slider in each wah. Also you have "Mix" not present in real wah world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erniedenov Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Yeah, that's one of my very few beefs with Helix; you have to reduce the volume level on all the wahs. And it is most noticeable on clean presets. I've owned Line 6 modelers from the beginning: AxSys 212, Vetta, Pod HD500 and M13 and none of them had that problem, you just stomped on the wah and it behaved like a real world wah. It's not exactly a huge problem, but it is a bit of a hassle getting the level right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macnevine Posted December 9, 2018 Author Share Posted December 9, 2018 Glad to know I was not imagining it. I will work with the levels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
