wynnphillips Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Hi, I'm stuck trying to set up a patch. I want to run my guitar in to the helix, then through a vrtual pedalboard of the usual suspects, ie distortion, compressor wah etc. Next I want to split the signal into two amps on different paths, onto delay and reverb (hopefully true stereo one amp to each side of the stereo effect. I next want to output that to my Seymour duncan powerstage 700 and yamaha stereo 2x12 which will be my stage sound, I also want to send the same signal through independent cab blocks and on to the xlr outs. I can't figure this out, if anyone could explain it to me, set it up for me or point me to somewhere I could get a patch with this setup I'd be gratefull. I intend to use this as my basic setup and so will be adding/changing individual effects for different patches. Thanks for reading and for any help.

rd2rk Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Attached example preset. In Global Settings>Ins/Outs set the BIG KNOB (Volume Knob) to anything other than XLR. That will provide a steady UNITY (0db) signal to FOH. You probably want XLR Outputs set to MIC, but if the signal isn't hot enough change it to LINE. You probably want SEND/RETURN 1 and 2 set to LINE. If it's too hot for the SDPS, set them to INST. You'll use physical SENDs 1/2 for stereo to the SDPS. The MIX Block (after the amps) is panned HARD L/R. That puts your amps on separate paths. The Reverb/Delay are stereo, but in parallel because I don't like Reverb on every delay repeat, it gets muddy. After the Stereo Send 1/2 Block (signal to SDPS) there's a Dual Cab, which maintains your Stereo signal to FOH. There's no Stereo IR Block, so if you want to use IRs you'll need to put the Reverb/Delay in series, split the path after the SEND 1/2 Block, and use 2 IR Blocks with the MIX Block panned HARD L/R. EDIT: All amp and fx choices are more or less random, with stock settings. It probably sounds like a$$. wphillips.hlx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
