What’s the best way to get multiple reverbs loaded up in this thing? Also, here’s the link to the service: ua-cam.com/users/livesNPOxLvQIdE?si=6bK-Hnw4JvNTrYrL
I don’t know if the LT has dual processing. But on the Helix my top line is all of my low dsp non-ambient effects. My gain Stages, chorus, and 3 reverbs. Then my second path. I Like the Glitz reverb for big modulated reverbs, then I use the 63 spring, and the third one changes a bunch. Second path is delays, stereo amps and Ir’s and an another reverb at the end to add room sound. LMK if this helps!
@@Jetix4273 From my research, the processing on the LT is the same as the Floor.And that’s exactly how I did it. Comp, drives, and chorus on the top line. Then stereo amps on the bottom. Then I could only include 1 stereo delay and one verb after the amps… the only thing that let me add a second reverb down there was removing and amp + cab block…
on the first path, add a second line but keep it series. you should be able to add all your dry effects, a mono mod and 2 delays and a verb. should be able to fit your second verb and stereo amps on the 2nd path.
Great video. I’d be curious to see how you have your preset set up because I’ve been running worship resets for six years using dual amps and cabs and I have multiple delays in reverbs and the usual assortment of wet effects. It’s a great unit and happy to help if it makes a difference for you
Welcome to the family. When I bought my Helix floor, they were giving the backpack for free. It’s a bit expensive, but in the ten months I’ve had it, I have found it to be worth the investment. I’m looking forward to the video content for the new unit that you’ll release. Keep up the good work.
I’ve found that David Hislop’s presets use the dsp the its fullest. I just swap out the effects but keep the same routing. I have 2 drives, 2 amps, 2 delays, 2 reverbs, 2 modulations and a compresor
Nice!! I think I probably need to make some of my FX mono. That stereo delay, reverb, and dual amp setup seem to take out a whole row haha. Just the growing pains of learning a new device!
I just went back to the helix lt. It's the sweet spot in the hx family for me. I had the fractal fm9 and quad cortex before. They all have trade offs. The footswtich spacing, built in expression, and ability to record dry/wet and edit with helix native for recording is just a great package for live and recording.
Nice!!! You’ve tried almost all of them! And I agree, they all have their trade offs. I did really enjoy using HX edit to build presets. That definitely sped up the process for me.
I've recently been playing a helix stomp xl with tonex in the loop, after playing the helix floor since 2016. I think the tonex has better amp sounds, but I enjoy the functionality and effects of the helix family! Best of both worlds for me! As you all have mentioned, with a little time and effort, they all sound amazing!
Congrats for joining the helix! I didn’t see in your chain the cabinets or irs. In general what i noticed and a lot of people are saying is to have a separate block for the cabs or to try irs and for my taste are better
Thanks! I started with separate amp and cab blocks, then I tried using the combined amp+cab block to see if it would be less DSP. It didn’t seem to make a difference at all! Haha.
I had an LT for a while, I really loved it! I was terrible at making my own presets, but I'd pull up any Worship Tutorials presets and loved most of them. Their free AC30 preset is so good. I've used the QC for over a year now and I've finally gotten my ear used to it within the last few months and have got some great sounding presets now, but it took longer to get a good sound on the QC than it did on the Helix to me. I also think the Helix wet effects are better than the ones in the QC! I'm in love with my QC now but would be totally happy with a Helix if I had to use that instead.
Interesting!! Yeah, I feel like the Helix amps take more tweaking out of the box to sound great than the QC, but their wet FX are top notch! Especially the delays! Those were really inspiring to use.
I went from Helix to Quad Cortex. The main thing I miss from Helix is as you said, the delays. The delays in QC just are not up to par. I love the capture tech, but the L6 modeling is incredible
I was trying to do that! I think I’ll just have to figure out how to adjust the routing to line 3. On the QC, you can just draw in splits but on the Helix, it seems like you have to have a FX block on the secondary line to get a split to appear?
@@JustinMuncy yeah you have to drag an already existing block and drag it for it to pop up. On the Helix LT, you can only have up to two paths so you will be able to get away with most effects you want in a worship pedalboard
@@ododm1 I’m pretty sure you can have 4 on the LT just like the floor! I was able to get secondary paths on both the top and bottom lines. I just think it’s a little clunky that you can’t draw in the paths.
Switched from Helix to QC. I have nothing bad to say about the Helix. I love it, just wanted to try something different after 5 years. The amps and drives are noticeably better in the QC which is really the meat and foundation of your tone, but the effects are better in the helix. The layout of the Helix makes it way easier to use live, but QC is easier to make presets at home given the touch screen, but theres currently no way to get out of grid mode to scene mode and vice versa without bending over and swiping up. QC desperately needs an update for that. The Helix just suffers from outdated hardware and being out for a decade. As much as I love the QC, I will be first in line when the Helix 2 drops.
I don’t use stereo amps a lot, but the way I’ve found it to work is to put both of them in the top section (like you did, just up top) with one drive pedal. Then programming more gain from the amp to be in a different snap shot or attached to a “pedal” type button. That saves a drive. And lets me put all of my reverb and delay down in the bottom section.
@@jshearer94 Nice!! Those are great tips! I think I’m going to have to mono some of my FX. I think having the delay and reverb blocks stereo is what’s maxing out the DSP… but that’s just my hunch.
There is more in it. Maxing out the dsp is easy but there are possibilities, believe me. Or.... You yous a stomp in conjunction with the Helix. Then you can go really wild😊
I've used an HX Stomp for 4 years. If you find the Presets too bright and/or the trebles too harsh, go to the Cab Block and turn down the High Cut Parameter to about 5Khz so it matches the real Guitar Amp Speaker's Frequency Response. Switching Mics in the Cab Block is another fast way to get the sound into the ballpark for what you want.
i’m at the beginning of switching from helix to QC. I picked up the meris mercX and GFI solis ventus to handle reverb and delay for me. i literally just wanted the big helix, but smaller and lighter to carry one board to church
Oh nice! I think having a helix plus pedals on a board would be pretty large wouldn’t it? Definitely bigger than any board I’ve had haha!! But if it feels portable to you, then why not? Unless you’re saying you used pedals with the QC. Then that would be pretty portable. I bet either sounds awesome!!
@@samirhernandez6520 I think they both are great options! I’d say the amps sound a little better to me in the QC. The wet FX sounds a little better in the Helix. That’s just my opinion though. But like my friend said, he didn’t notice a major difference in my sound either way. I’d go with whichever one is going to inspire you to play more!
Thank you!! I was actually trying to do that but couldn’t figure out the routing at the time. On the QC you can just draw in a split but on the Helix, it seems like you have to drag an FX block onto the secondary line in order for a split to appear?
I have a Sire T7 and Sire T3 modded with Seymour Broadcaster pickups with the Helix LT. I got on my Helix LT the Z-Wreck and TK Imperial amps from Worship Tutorials and I think 3rd party captures really unlock this unit.
Cool!! Yeah, their stuff seems pretty solid! I’m one of those, “I gotta max out what I can make the internal stuff do first” kind of guys. That’s how I really learned the QC. I forced myself to make it work.
I entered the transfer portal last month… just kidding! I didn’t make a switch or sell my QC. I wanted to try the platform and make content around it and I got a really great deal on it!
@@Tool0GT92 Definitely. I think how we play affects it too. Maybe you’re adding a bit too much level somewhere in your signal path that’s causing it to clip?
@ it’s not clipping it usually gets muddy or too thin. Of course I find the more time you listen the worse it starts to sound, then you come back the next day and you like it.
Get yourself some worship tutorials patches and make copies and tweak them to sound like you. Also get some tasty Tonejunkie IRs!!! I just got a Helix LT too!
Helix floor is still my favorite unit. I didnt really care for the QC being so small it the touch screen. I really love scribble strips. I sold both and a just waiting to see if a new helix comes out with more DSP soon. L6 has changed there amp modeling and effects modeling. All the new amps and effects take up more DSP so you might be mad you got that LT because it’s about time for a new HelixX or something.
Interesting! I love the touchscreen and the size of the QC! It was pretty ideal for touring and the gigs I was doing when I got it. And that could be! I didn’t buy the Helix to replace my rig, so I wouldn’t be that upset. The LT was only a touch more in price than the stomp, so it’s a great value!
@ I don’t really like the small form factor and no scribble strips which I know is opposite of most people. Helix has a weird feel to the high gain amp models that ends up annoying me. I’ve owned 3 and in the end can’t deal with it. That being said I still have helix native and the new amp models and effects from the last year are a completely different type of modeling that are way more DSP heavy and way better sounding and a new one has to be made soon. Kemper can get away with nothing new forever but a modeling platform 10 years old outlived itself.
When I got mines , my wife is like don’t keep the box throw it away, but I have the box in our storage room just in case I need it or sell it and get the floor model later on in the future
@ I bet .. I got it because I heard it’s good and I got it on a payment plan with Sweetwater and on sale . I do want to learn how to use it for the church that I play at .. thank you 😊
hola! justin sabes que tengo el dinero para comprar la helix floor o la Neural DSP Quad Cortex la helix siempre e trabajado con line 6 me encanta pero me hablan de Neural DSP Quad Cortex cual comprarias en el 2025 y porque! saludos.
That’s a good tip!! I did try moving things around on the bottom row and the only thing that seemed to allow me a second verb was removing one of my amp + cab blocks.
#1 Welcome to the Helix family LOL #2 Careful! You are going to get canceled for saying the truth, that in the mix they sound pretty much the same! LOL
Hahaha thank you!! Right off of the bat, I’d say the QC amps sound a little better, but I’d give an edge on the delays to the Helix. That could just be user error on my part though. I think it really boils down to preference. Both are great!
@@JustinMuncy That's what I've always heard: amps are ok, but FX are great. Good thing is that you can "correct" any dislike with some tweaking and maybe some IRs. Gotta love technology!
@ I would sue you... but I share your opinion 100% lol I've said it 23020393 times: my gig for years was just an iphone/ipad and BIAS FX and I dare anyone to guess what I was actually using!
Got mine (went full Helix) yesterday! Absolutely invested in my craft! LOVE it (had a Pod Go prior) very intuitive!! Sub'd let's make music!! Got 3.8 - sooooooo good! Use mine at church too!
@@JustinMuncy I like making them. There’s just something about twisting all those knobs that’s primal. I hate menu diving in line 6 products but man they all sound consistently good.
1st.... welcome to HX...much better than QC ive had 3 QC so i actually know lol 2 why are you building only stereo amp rigs??? Uae one amp , you can pan cabs, make all drives and effects stereo even EQ ....if you run out of DSP then you, not HX has a problem....just some advice i learned the hard way. Every patch only needs one amp
I think you downgraded, lol. I'll piss off the Helix Fanbois, but it's the truth in reality. To have enough DSP for a preset you want to build you probably need the full Helix not LT, and still not as powerful as QC.
@ ok, it's been awhile since I looked at the specs of both, but thought I remembered the LT had less. I like the a helix effects so I would have just bought an HX effects to use with the QC. They are almost the same size and fit nicely in a board together.
