There are several including a few in the Legacy category that don't appear under Mono or Stereo. Here's a handy resource for looking up effect(also amp/cab) models: https://helixhelp.com/models 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theElevators Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 One word of caution for envelope filter -- it works very "specifically" with a specific guitar output level. For example, if you dial it in for a Les Paul output level, it may not even get triggered completely with a telecaster. Same thing with an acoustic sim -- it's very specific to your exact instrument. One thing you can do is put some kind of a compressor before it, to level out the signal. Otherwise, the envelope filter on the Helix is my single source of frustration at the moment. It's very very hard to dial it in. It either starts getting too harsh, or not work as expected. For some reason, I was able to tweak an envelope filter on a Boss processor a lot easier.

loonsailor Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 The "mutant filter" is a fine auto-wah. Don't put a compressor before it, though. The auto-wah works by tracking the amplitude (volume) with the filter. If you put a compressor before it, there will be less amplitude variation, thus less auto-wah happening. You probably don't need to, but you could put a gain block before it if you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
