harskis Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Hi, I have 3 pickups in my acoustic guitar (piezo, humbucker and sort of a kick-mic) and I need to process two of those, piezo and humbucker, via few effects, wich I do now with stomp boxes.. Is it possible, with Helix, plug humbucker to Helix´s guitar in, piezo to aux-in, and have completely independent signalpath for both piezo, and humbucker? And if, is it possible to program send and return channels that, for example only piezo signal is routed to send/return 1, humbucker to send/return2 etc? And also program buttons in a way, that some buttons make things happen only for one signalpath, and some button makes both of them do something? Sorry if this seems a bit bizarre, but if someone have the knowledge, please share it with me and the others :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil_m Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Yes, it's very easy to do that sort of thing, although I'm a little unclear what you're getting when talk about the piezo signal being routed to send/return1. The returns are inputs and the sends are outputs and you don't have to use them together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harskis Posted December 13, 2019 Author Share Posted December 13, 2019 Good to hear :) I thought that those send/return are sort of effects loop.. But anyway, I´m planning to use that send to send humbucker signal to octaver (boss oc-3) which is allmost always on, but during some of the songs/tunings, must be turned off. I guess it´s possible to controll those sends with buttons, that you can program some button to be on/off button for sending to signal to.. send?

Yep, you can assign footswitches to switch in a return or a send. As phil_m stated you don't necessarily need a send to use the return though. Also keep in mind that you can have up to four input blocks and each one of these can have a different input assigned, e.g. Guitar, Aux as well as any of the return inputs.
