3.0. Can't move poly pitch to before amp block. Pre portions.

[tgs679]

Wondering why I can't set polyphonic pitch to a before the amp block position? In normal pitch mode I can but not with the new polyphonic stuff.

The Polyphonic Blocks are very DSP Intensive. See the 3.0 User Guide for your device. In certain instances, some of the Poly Blocks can consume nearly one half of the Helix Floor or Helix Racks DSP resources! Thus, some of the higher DSP intensive Amp Blocks (as well as higher DSP intensive Amp & Cab Blocks) may preclude use of certain Poly Blocks on the same Path. 

 

Helix Floor, Rack, and LT provide dual DSP chips; one for Path 1 and another for Path 2. Thus you may need to position your Poly block on one Path and your Amp on another Path.

 

Note: Path 1A and Path 1B share Path 1's DSP resource. Similarly, Path 2A and Path 2B share Path 2's DSP resource. So, merely splitting Path 1 to Path 1A and 1B only avails Path 1's DSP.

 

HX Stomp has only 1 DSP chip, so certain combinations of DSP intensive Poly Blocks and Amps will exceed the unit's resources.
