willyjacksonjs22 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Maybe there’s allot of questions about this but I can’t find the answers. I downloaded the demo again to to try helix native and I was not impressed with the tone. On the high gain models it was all muddy that you have to back off the gain but you lose the bite. At GC I tried the hardware version and it sounded way better no muddy. And even with the power cab also being demoed. It sounded like an amp. yes I tried all settings in studio one 3, my lab top and Scarlett second gen. Funny thing that other plugins sound better than native and have more volume. any reason why some computers don’t sound good with native. Some people have the same issue but no answer. should I go for the helix lt or save for the floor or if I fix the issue just purchase native? i wanna plug and play and learn lots of songs from different genres. So recording my own music will be once and while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Powercab sounded like an amp because it is an amp. You made no mention of what you were monitoring through at home when you tried the Native demo. If you were using headphones, studio monitors, or some other FRFR speaker, then comparing it to the Powercab is rather pointless... it's a different animal. The whole point of the Powercab is to provide the "amp in the room" feel that some guys can't do without. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rd2rk Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 On your Scarlett be sure you're using the INSTRUMENT input. Hit a big chord LOUD and turn up the Input level till it flashes yellow, then back off a notch. Unless you're using the same playback system at home as you used at GC, it will sound different, though it shouldn't sound worse than other plugins. Native has an Input meter. set it so that it's peaking around -20db. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarlett 6i6 and two jbls lsr308. my only complain is that the high gain stuff specially when you palm mute it’s muddy and distorted. On the helix hardware same settings didn’t sounded like that. I bet that if I buy the hardware and connect it to my daw it won’t sound like that. There’s people here that have similar issues and there’s no answer. People are using less powerful computers and native works fine. So I don’t know wants the problem. maybe native doesn’t like certain computers?

I'm not sure where that would be on the Scarlett, but on other interfaces it would be with the knob all the way down. Native is very sensitive to input levels, so you'd want instrument level, like you said - ideally with no gain added. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a significant (10db) difference between the humbuckers on my PRS and the single coils on my Strat, as registered on the Native Input meter. That's where you need to turn up the Input knob on the Scarlett. Using the Input meter on the Scarlett as I described prevents over driving the Scarlett's preamps and provides the best signal to the DAW/plugin.

Kilrahi Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Just to weigh in, while I've had a Native preset behave differently than it did in the Stomp sound wise, I don't personally think the products sound different. Just that sometimes if I move a Stomp preset to Native I have to adjust it slightly to get it back to how I want it to sound, or if I move a Native preset to Stomp, same thing sometimes. Both seem capable of sounding identical with tweaking, however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heavyville Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 You cannot objectively compare Native against the hardware unit going to a powercab vs your monitoring methods. its 2 different worlds and has been debated endlessly with generally the same outcome every time. they are the same inherently but with different inputs / outputs, you need to adjust gain staging and learn how to use all the tools provided to get the tone you want. I don't know a lot about the JBL monitors, but a power cab is a professional device made with intention....the price points between the two will assure that. You have a very large gap to overcome before you will convince yourself how good this unit really is. Native or hardware. I don't believe helix in my mind, was a turn key device or just plug and play....this is an expansive device that is a tool and is set generally wide open and needs to be "reeled" back in to where it makes your ears happy... regardless, enjoy the journey, its a good one, if you should so choose to enter that rabbit hole.....blue pill or red one...the choice is yours.

robertgoddard Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 I wonder how many of these comparisons are being done "live"? Let me explain: Helix Native is a VST based plug-in for a DAW running on a PC/Mac. These are using general compute x86 based CPUs. These CPUs are not designed for DSP processing natively. While running the plug-in live, I predict that helix Native is giving an approximation of what it should sound like after it's rendered. Helix Floor/LT/Stomp/etc... are all running a custom Helix Core OS on an embedded (most likely ARM based) CPU and separate DSP Processors that work in real time. I wonder if you record a track from a Helix hardware unit with both the processed track and the dry track from the Helix, and run Helix Native on the dry track (reamping) and RENDER the file, if you could tell a difference?

If you enable monitoring through your DAW, you're hearing the audio being processed in real-time (real-time including whatever latency there is, of course). That's the case for all VSTs, really.

willyjacksonjs22 Posted August 30, 2019 Author Share Posted August 30, 2019 lol stupid me I lowered the input knob on the Scarlett all the way to zero and that kinda work. So yes the head rush power cab is making the hardware sound I guess a little better now that I made that adjustment can’t wait to try some IRs. any good free ones or the ones available for purchase are better? thinking about it, I don’t play live or in a cover band so for me the hardware will be expensive. Maybe the hx stomp to make it easier and also well I don’t have buy the plugin for $400! Also ill go for a tube amp it inspires me to play. I don’t know maybe it’s just me but the first time I played one there was this feeling that with the modelers I can’t get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's because you are used to the amp in the room sound....speakers moving air.....that unmistakable thump when you lay into a chord. A modeler is more like a miced amp, in the studio, in another room, monitored in the control room.....i.e. It's that guitar sound you hear on your favorite album. With a modeler, you're not just dialing the amp, but you are also dialing in EQ and (sometimes) compression. You're not just a guitarist anymore. You've also become the sound engineer. At least that's the way I approach it when building my patches. If you don't know a lot about EQ and compression, be prepared for a learning curve. It's not that hard to get a great sound out of a modeler if you know what you're doing. Last piece of advice. Factory presets suck. You can somewhat use them as a "how-to" guide. But you will have the most success if you build your own from scratch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I been playing with real amps at some local stores for the past few weeks and there’s this feel that modelers don’t have. maybe if I was touring and playing live I will definitely buy a Helix floor. But I’m just at home learning. so plugins will work for recording and the real amp that I will purchase will be for practicing. Anyone here doesn’t play live and uses the helix hardware at home? What are the benefits? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

W4RM3CH4N1C Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Sorry for the necro but I wanted to post a link to recordings using the native and the HX stomp back to back https://www.dropbox.com/s/4uxapgw9rmkrq0z/Helix_test.wav?dl=0 I've been chasing why all the plugins sound so fizzy, I know a producer who took the exact same patch and played 2 different guitars through then, took a guitar and ran it through the HX before hitting native. Now listen to the audio file - you tell me which one was the HX stomp, the difference isn't slight its utterly beyond comparison, please please check the link i posted as we're trying to find out why this, and we feel subseqently all other amp sims might be getting a bad rap for being hard etc etc. We've record through focusrite interfaces, behringer x32 interfaces etc and we need to find out what the issue is. I don't want to have to rely on the hardware unit to get sounds ITB. This is the video that started it all https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8NaX2u1anw&t=420s he's using the NATIVE and only the HX stomp can get the tone he's showing. We copied his chain exactly all plugins, all settings down to the letter. Can line6 say without a shadow of a doubt what my interface/input specs need to be in order to match the HX stomps tone when ITB? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kylotan Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Without us seeing the exact chain, levels, your DAW etc, it's only ever going to be wild speculation. It's very unlikely to be down to the brand of hardware you use and quite likely to be down to some extreme level differences or mistakes in setting up the patch. If I had to guess I'd say the 1st and 2nd examples in that Helix_test.wav have the guitar signal coming in too high. I have released 1 album and 1 EP almost entirely of Helix Native tones and I've gigged several of those songs live with Helix Floor, and I never noticed any significant difference that I couldn't just put down to the virtual cab vs. a real cab.

Whilst I appreciate your success with the Native, unfortunately myself and others have noticed the problem. You're right, the first thing we went to was the input level, I can drop 12db using the trim and I can pad the DI guitar down another 20db on the input I've check the input range on the helix is between -36db and -12 as it says, however I've found the most consistent feel is around more -18 to -12 BUT the fizz is horrendous and nt at all the same as the stomp. Unless of course the stomp was used to create the DI. Nothing more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The signal chain is so insanely simple, we've replicated it on the DAW inside Native and outboard using the HX stomp. The moment the stomp gets involved the sound inside Native dramatically improves. I've now got 4 different people with 4 different interfaces who are all trying different line level tests as they are just as shocked at the difference. Hence why i wanna know what's going on with the HX stomp on the input and how i can match those specs, cos for the most part either a) people are happy to settle for a crappy tone or b) just got damn lucky on certain setups (or peoples ears are a touch bad / got used to the sound) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see what you are asking now now.... You piggy backed onto a thread with one problem but you are describing something very different. Hence... confusion :) What we know.... NATIVE and DEVICE sound the same.... DEVICE is consistent because the hardware is setup for guitar NATIVE can vary depending on the interface used to get the signal into the computer. You really want to know if the HX is recording a pure dry tone, or if it is enhanced in any way! I guess it's a fair question to ask but please see bullet point #3.... interfaces all sound a little different. I don't know what interface you used to record those first two clips... but they do sound pretty hollow/empty. 3 hours ago, W4RM3CH4N1C said: ...cos for the most part either a) people are happy to settle for a crappy tone or b) just got damn lucky on certain setups (or peoples ears are a touch bad / got used to the sound) So if a user is using a 3rd party interface it is nothing but dumb luck or bad ears that convince them they are getting a good tone?

In the third clip, I'm 90% sure I can hear the dry pick attack of unprocessed guitar in the background, so if it really is all DI then maybe you didn't mute the dry track... which makes me question how you've routed the audio in your DAW. Are you sure you don't have multiple tracks playing at once? (E.g. Wet DI from Stomp, dry DI from Stomp, and also wet plugin processing from Native?) The first two clips and especially the second has some kind of weird crackly artifact occasionally that sounds kinda like CPU underrun but not quite. Could be your input levels too high, could be a driver problem (you are using the manufacturer's ASIO driver for the other devices, yes?)... Which DAW are you using? I think sharing the DAW session is more likely to find the issue than just sharing the preset. The difference sounds like more than just levels and fizz to me, it doesn't even sound like they're using the same cab simulation. I realize you say they are, so there is some fundamental problem in the setup, somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still just sounds like either: (a) you're pushing the signal too high on the way into Native, something that isn't really possible with Stomp (or Floor, etc), or (b) the cab sim impulse is different For what it's worth, I loaded your preset into my Helix Native and my riffs through it sound fine. No time to compare it with Floor, however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
