Klaim Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Before having a Helix I had a Zoom G3X (still have it). One effect I cannot find or cannot seem to be able to reproduce with the Helix is a reverse gain effect: on the attack it's mute and it progressively move the gain higher. At the time I made a piece where I used that effect: https://soundcloud.com/mjklaim/ghost-city (the sounds you hear coming regularly growing) Any idea how I could get that on Helix?

Klaim Posted October 10, 2020 Author Share Posted October 10, 2020 I tried that but it doesnt seemt to sound the same way. Do you have some settings to suggest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OmniFace Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Your song sounds like the distortion swells up a bit too. The auto swell is just an automatic volume pedal basically. To get the distortion to react to it, starting clean and increasing in distortion, you need the auto swell before your distortion (pedal or amp). If you put it post, it will just sound like the volume changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaim Posted October 11, 2020 Author Share Posted October 11, 2020 Ok thanks, I will try to experiment to reproduce that sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
