DeadAndrew Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Not so long ago, I began to notice that I don't like the sound of helix. The main problem is that the signal does not seem to be hot enough. It's like the volume on the guitar is slightly lowered. And everything was fine before, but I don't remember what update this problem started with. I tried different guitars (prs sc250, esp horizon with emg), tried turning on/off the PAD button, tried resetting to factory settings. Tell me what the problem may be, otherwise I have already broken my brain) I forgot to say that I play through studio monitors, but it also sounds the same when recording Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DunedinDragon Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 What does the signal meter look like when you select the output block on your signal chain? (That assumes you're outputting your Helix through the XLR or 1/4" outputs not the USB.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadAndrew Posted July 7, 2021 Author Share Posted July 7, 2021 Signal meter, looks normal, green, without peak loads. Can you write in more detail what to check in the signal meter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting first post - you might agree with “rd2rk”, but as he hasn’t respond to this thread, you must be psychic? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeadAndrew Posted July 8, 2021 Author Share Posted July 8, 2021 Guys, give some advice on the topic) I understand that some of you think that the problem may be in the hardware? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're not getting a straight answer because nobody (he's on third) has seen this before. Are your pickups active? Other outboard effects? Bad battery? Have you contacted support?

I have tried both active (battery ok) and passive pickups. I haven't contacted support yet, I thought maybe someone has already encountered it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
