New Helix User Needing Output Check

Recommended Posts

Hi all.  I've searched and not having any luck...

 

I have an EV SXA250 and I'm not getting any sound from the Helix to it.  1/4 out from Helix to EV (tried both Multi and 1/4" on the Helix output) and I have sound to headphones, and into my Egnater amp.  Unplugging from amp to EV yields nothing.  So...sanity check here - it's got to be the line in on the EV, yeah?

 

Thanks in advance.

Is the BIG KNOB assigned to the 1/4" out? Is it turned up? Are the 1/4" outs set to LINE?

 

Is the EV turned on (wouldn't be the first time...)?

Is the volume on the EV turned up? Are you getting ANY noise out of the EV? With the volume turned all the way up you should get at least some hiss.

 

Try plugging some other sound source - cd/mp3 player, streaming app on your phone - into the EV.

It is.

You're right, it wouldn't.  And yes.

It hisses.  Sarcastically.

Unfortunately, I lack the means and adapters to do that.  

 

I'll grab a Speakon tomorrow and see if that works maybe.  Or just grab an XLR too.
