Where can I see the used processing power by a patch on the Helix ?

I have read that the used processing power is supposed to be displayed in the editor somewhere but I cannot find it
Is my information wrong or am I looking in the wrong place?

I ask because what I understand is that the Helix can support only two amps per patch, but when I use factory template '4 Tone Switcher' I see four separate signal paths and I can add an amp/cab block to all of them. So I would like to know more about the limits of the Helix. I build loads of patches and sometimes they can get very complicated(think Eric Johnson... ;) ). So it would be a great help if I could separate each amp with its effects on a signal path.

I have of course read the documentation and the manuals and I have searched here and elsewhere online but I cannot get a straight answer.

Thanks in advance.

Don’t know if this is of any help. Made a summary of amp/effect models a few years ago. Purpose was to have all info I needed in one place. It’s bast on Ben Vesco’s webpage and his method of calculating relative processor load. To that I added some extra info I needed.

 

Feel free to us it if I it fit your needs - https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/jmc5gqz40d8e0nmgck8pz/Line6-Helix-Model-and-DSP-Summary-P3-80d-01.pdf?rlkey=ftys9exk0ydc5lqslmjs40q0x&dl=0

 

The pdf is linked to my Dropbox as the space on my L6 account is “full”.
