jroxinthefuture Posted July 11, 2024 Share Posted July 11, 2024 Hello community: Please excuse me if this has been asked already before, I attempted a quick search on this, but hadn't much luck. I am a bit short on time and unable to deep-dive the archived content here. My question is pretty straightforward, I believe: Is it possible to rig the Helix (floor) into 3 amp/speaker systems? My idea is as follows: I am going to be ordering soon the Laney LFR412 guitar cabinet, but really need stereo effects for my sound. The Laney is only a mono system. I would like to rig my system as to have the Helix sending a Left/Mono signal to the Laney, and have two other smaller 1x12's (considering the Headrush 112 possibly) and running a dedicated L/R signal to each of them respectively, to achieve stereo imaging/spectrum. Logic tells me that the Helix is quite capable of this setup. How would I run the cabling to the amps? And also - what would my patch need to look like/be set up as in HX Edit? I'm still getting to know the Helix system and so much knowledge is a bit limited for now. Thank you so much for your time and effort. I appreciate you!

ricstudioc Posted July 11, 2024 Share Posted July 11, 2024 I'm sure others with experience in w/d/w will chime in, I'm a humble mono or stereo guy, but - I had to check on the Laney, sure enough a powered 4x12 - so speaker emulation on that side of things is covered (by an actual speaker). First thing I'd try: Helix in > boosts/drives/wahs and other mono stuff into > amp head of choice > right here insert a send to the Laney > cab/IR of choice > stereo processors > L/R out to small 1x12's. Make sense? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rd2rk Posted July 11, 2024 Share Posted July 11, 2024 ^^^ This is the way. Note the placement of the SEND to the Laney. That's the trick. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jroxinthefuture Posted July 11, 2024 Author Share Posted July 11, 2024 Thank you guys very much for the reply. I am not absolutely sure what you mean with the above information unfortunately. Is there anyway someone might be able to post a screenshot of what the proper preset/patch would look like, from either HXedit or the Helix display?

rd2rk Posted July 11, 2024 Share Posted July 11, 2024 Example preset attached. You might want to have a look at the manual for an explanation of what a "SEND" is. jrox.hlx 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
