    This patch is meant to make any instrument capable of covering the kind of part you'd expect a warm pad-type synth tone to do. It uses the autoswell / echo legacy block, the particle verb for a freeze effect, and a few other reverbs, delays and modulations. It's a very DSP-heavy preset but it all still fits even on the smaller HX Stomp devices. With less effects, it'd also fit in the ambient guitar realm.

    Thank you for working the preset step by step. I've had my helix a year but did not realize you could assign a footswitch as latch and monetary,, that really opens up a lot of room for live performances!!! thank you

    I got them all but cannot figure out how to use the pad/synth ones. I’m using a helix LT and either no sound comes out or it’s just very low sputters distorted tone. I tried the Metheny one and a few others. The electric guitar amp ones work fine.

    • @AlexPriceMusician

      Hey Andy - just sent you an email. What you’re describing sounds like the synth blocks reacting to two or more notes. The synth blocks are extremely stubborn and monophonic. It takes a bit of practice to learn to play with them.

    Very nice - on the main output what did you set the level to? I don't think I saw that setting...

    • @AlexPriceMusician
      @AlexPriceMusician  8 місяців тому +1

      I try to set up all of my patches to be at roughly equal volume without making any adjustments to the level parameter in the output block. It’s set to 0.0db so there’s plenty of room to go both up and down, depending on other presets that people might be using.

    Is this specific preset available for purchase?

      @AlexPriceMusician  Рік тому

      Hi Guillermo - yes, it’s in the special effects folder of my Complete Preset Library - www.alexpricemusician.com/helix
      You can also just copy the settings from the screen if all you’re interested in is this single preset. I always share the settings throughout.
