CarlosBluesman Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Olá, Amigos! Does anyone knows wich Patch Name on Tone Settings gives me the sound of the old Big Muff ??? For example: #269 HOTEL CALI ? #270.LA GRANGE ? #272.LAZY ? #285.SMOKE WATER? Thanks a lot and Happy Carnival to Everyone!

BBD_123 Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Some confusion here? Big Muff is a pedal, not a patch. On Helix, you find it in the Distortion library. It is called 'Triangle Fuzz'. How you set the pedal up, plus which amp, cab and mic you use will *all* have significant effects on the final tone... Hope this helps.

Hope this helps. No confusion, man. I´m looking for the primarely sound of Big Muff inside a patch. That´s why I pointed some as 271."Lazy", 285."Smoke Water", etc. For example: 51."Hands Down" is too crunchy! 265."Godzilla" is himself in black&white. I know that you can change some parameters in the patches, but I used not to change them. I do prefer to call them in the factory mode. See? I am still with the good ol´ Spider Jam of my heart! Working all nites bringing joy to the people of town. When the pub have P.A. I carry my JM4-Looper, my lovely "pedaleira"!.. Afterall, many thanks for your attention. Happy Carnival!

So you will need to either create a patch of your own or edit a preset. Creating your own patches is not so hard. The simplest way has just two blocks - the fuzz pedal and a combination amp + cab block - like this: [triangle fuzz] - [amp + cab] Try a few different [amp + cab] blocks until you get a tone that you like, then add the [triangle fuzz] in front and dial the fuzz in to work with the [amp + cab] tone. Helix isn't really a plug and play device - patches need to be dialled in carefully to suit your specific needs. Hope this helps... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlosBluesman Posted February 13, 2020 Author Share Posted February 13, 2020 Dear Mate, As I said, I´m still with my beloved Spider Jam or JM4-Looper. Nowadays, industry is launching new products every year, but sometimes they don´t satisfied me as they should to. Amplif-i had not convinced me. It´s a mysterious cabinet, poor performer, cell phone internet and apps user. That is, no good stuff for the night. Moreover, I intend to create my sound and keep it for years, just like Richie Blackmore, Jimmy Page and our "saudoso" Alvin Lee! Tight Hugs, Carlos Mendes-Bluesman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
