FX Loop amp - Send/Return and Ins/Outs Settings Helix

Good morning,


I use my Helix in the 4 send/return cable method in my Marshall JVM410 amp head. 


My amp head offers me the possibility of using the effects loop at +4 or -10 dB


To get the most out of my equipment and get the best sound possible

1. I would like to know if I need to configure the 1/4" outputs and send/return from my propeller to Line or Instrument?

 

2. I would like to know if I should I use +4 or -10 db on the effects loop of my amp head? 


Thank you in advance for your answer.

Sincerely

The default answer for 4CM is:

Set input, output and send/return levels to INST on the Helix and use the -10dB option on the JVM.

Use an empty patch, add the fx loop block, crank the VOLUME knob and test how this setup compares the pure non-4CM amp. Usually this sounds very close with an extra little hiss.
