Recently some of my friends have purchased new Line 6 Helix units, and it dawned on me that some people don't know what to do with their Helix as soon as they bring it home.
The obvious answer is to play it, as surely they will do, but they may not know how to register it for warranty, update it, or create presets.
So, in this video we'll show you how to register your new Helix, upgrade to the latest firmware and have you creating presets the same day you bring it home.

"Now we're gonna press save, and call it Eddie Van...oops I mean Eric. Lol.
Gave you the thumbs up just for "it's got that new Helix smell"
Love it!
Just got one of these and this video is a life saver. Thank you
Absolutely outstanding demo showing everything I needed to know about how to get started with the Helix! Thank you.
thank you eric for your professional quality video and tips and for being so cool.
Thank you, man, its very simple and useful for many of us, I think.
Perfect tutorial. Just what I was looking for.
Thank you for this video. I got it home and you got me started with my Helix; it sounds like my pedal board, and it fits in a Gator case (with wheels!).
Great video. VERY informative and easy to follow. Thank you.
What a great video! I ordered my helix a few days ago now I'm preparing myself :)
Thanks very much!
This was a truly helpful introductory video -- the best I found for a first-time user. The Line 6 Updater didn't work for me. But the HX Editor has the update functionality and did work. Building a first patch that used some of the best sounding effects was just great and really fun. This takes away a lot of the "what did I get myself into" effect" from first attempts to use the Helix and opens the door to learning how to use the Helix incrementally. There is so much. Thanks!
great video - my helix LT is coming today and im going to follow the same video. thanks for this
New helix user thank you so much for this video ive used multi effects for years but felt like i jumped off a cruise ship deep in the ocean with no life support when i 1st started with it , somyou may be my new best friend lol thank you so much for the help , ill make sure to support your channel
Great video! Fast and clear! I always played in my studio with a Boss GT-6 and two Lexicon MPX-1's, not only for guitar but also for organ. This video convinced me to buy a Helix!
Ordered my helix this morning.. more than excited to get it and not so worried that I won’t understand it after watching this vid! Thanks man!
Glad I found this great channel!! Thanks for the great lesson!
Thanks
for a great demo
Fantastic video. THANK YOU. Now I’m gonna get started on my Helix.
awesome video and patch Eric. Great job. Hoping I can be able to get my Helix LT one day and join the Helix comminity....once I get back to work :) Keep up the good work
I finally able to understand this Helix more... might buy one soon.
AWWWEEEEEESOME !!! I love this sound and your quick explanation! It helped me a lot! Thank you so much for work!
It is my absolute pleasure. Thank you for the kind words!
Fantastic demo! Probably one of the best i've seen out of all the helix demos on here. Well done!
Huge thanks I greatly appreciate this!
Great video! Thank you!!
Amazing video, thank you.
Exactly the tutorial I needed to convince me to get the Helix. Cheers
Thank you so much for the feedback, I am thrilled that this was of help to you.
Thank you so much for doing this video, excellent easy to follow with no fluff or opinions, very appreciated!
Really glad you enjoyed it! Thank you
Holy cow I need one asap. Awesome channel 👌
I wish I had this in 2017 when I first started! Still, it helped me, as I pretty much ONLY use the computer to set up stuff... so I learned how to do it without the computer!
Just of the Helix today. Thank you for the quick and informative instructions... keep em coming!
You are very welcome and I am happy that this was of help to you!
Just created this preset on my new HX Stomp ,Eric its an awesome tone cheers from Scotland.
Very informative video! Thank you!
Thank you, Derek Smalls 🙌
I've just had a Helix arrive today, now the lessons and fun begin. You're video is a great help to start setting new sounds.
Congratulations! Welcome to a world of fun & killer tone. Keep us posted on your results!
Watched the video. Got a Helix. Bout to create a patch. Thanks for the great content!
Wow! I’m impressed....It took me a while to find a video on LINE 6 HELIX like this one!!!!
Thank you very much!
Thank you for checking it out. I hope it was of help to you. Many more tips coming for Helix.
An extremely well-organized and helpful video. Why in the world Line-6 didn't offer such an introductory video (or series of videos) themselves (?), I do not know, but this introductory walk-through is enough to keep some new owner/users from getting frustrated and bagging the unit altogether, and quite frankly, I'm one of 'em! Haaaa! So kudos, and many thanx! ;-)
This thing does so much. Amazing.
Great video , subscribed !
Thanks, I just exchanged my way up from a PodGo-GT1000...the complete product line and all price brackets..to finally land on the LT. I THINK I FOUND THE ONE!
Great video, thank you! I just got the helix and 2 powercab plus speakers. This will keep me sane while I explore and learn for sure
Thank you so much and feel free to hit me up with questions. Congrats on your purchase and PS, I have all my premium presets at 20% off on my website. line6helixpresets.com/
It was worth watching, if for no other reason, then to learn about that input noise gate. Thank you.
I’m glad you pointed out how easy it is to put in a noise gate! I’ll remember that, next time I’m using real single coil pups 😁🤘
Cheers!
No probs! Glad it was of value to you! Cheers!
Excellent video!
Very informative. Love my Helix. Please keep up the great work!!!
Thank you so much, appreciated! Enjoy that Helix!
Great video for new Helix owners to view. Loving that preset you created. Bravo and THANKS \m/
You rock buddy! Thank you!
this is the ONLY video i could find showing me this... THANK YOU
Heck yes, happy that you found it!! Thanks for checking it out!
Thank you for this very detailed video. You just earned your subscription like you said! I'm considering buying this pedal and your video is guiding me closer to making that decision!
Awesome I cannot thank you enough. Promise to keep working hard for ya!
This is amazing. I've been looking for a simple demo of making a patch (great patch btw) using only the board (no software). Kudos man :) I appreciate the simplicity.
You are very welcome!
I finally have a Helix Floor on the way to me! I’m so jazzed! Thanks for the info Eric!
I could not be happier for you! Welcome to the family. Any trouble or tips needed, hit me up. More of these tutorial videos coming!
Great video; no wasted talk. Thanks.
Huge thank you! Appreciated!
Outstanding job the whole thing just totally made sense thank you very much. The only thing is is how do you go back-and-forth from presets to our preset
Great Demo!
Wow and Wow. I fell into this UA-cam Channel by accident and by all accounts, you have been my greatest help in showing just how simple and complex programing the Helix can be and so Versital. I will be reviewing all of your productions for the Helix and will be ordering the Presets below as soon as I get mine. Saving up for it now. Thanks for your insight and you have a great ability to teach and PLAY. Fantastic. Thanks Again!! Larry
Thank you so much for the very kind words. I am thrilled to see that the content was of value to you. I promise to work even harder in 2020 to earn these kind words. Please keep us posted when you receive your Helix. Happy New Year!
What a totally fantastic video tutorial!!!
Huge thank you, I really appreciate the kind words!
Very cool video Eric. You made it look easy and fun to use 👍 This video helps take the fear out of connecting everything which is big part of it. Thank you sir!!
You rock buddy, thank you for taking the time to check it out!
Enjoyed the simplicity..great Vid ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank you kindly!
This is one of the greatest how to’s I have ever seen
I was kicking around the idea of getting a Helix - vs - a Kemper Stage. I had owned the Kemper "toaster" before, so I was leaning that way. I viewed this video and the fact that I own a James Tyler Variax, I decided to spring for the Helix. Glad I did - there are some great tones in there and it can do a lot with regard to stage and DAW - and I am sure that the sound guy will like it too! Thanks for making a highly understandable video!
awesome..really helps
Beyond Spooky. Yesterday I was looking, I repeat 👀 at the Line 6 Helix to see if I wanted one. And 24 hours later your video pops up to view. Your video alone has convinced me to make the purchase. Thank You so much for such an easy, user friendly intro into getting started with this.
Love this! Very pleased to see this helped you. Let me know when you receive your Helix and welcome to an entire new world of inspiring tone!
Just got my Helix and came here to sub:) Thanks for all you do🙌.
Congrats on your Helix and thank you so much for the sub. Greatly appreciated!
Fantastic video. That very first preset you built blew me away. I’m a huge VH fan. Still deciding the Helix or the Axe-Fx III. Your “how to” guide is awesome!
Really glad you enjoy this stuff, and I think if anything it shows that it is very easy to create great sounding presets in mere seconds/minutes. Trust me with Helix, you can drop blocks on a path without a guitar in your hands. Pick up your guitar and adjust the tiniest of settings and be in love with your tone. Thank you so much once again.
Excellent video Eric, that patch sounds great for something just “thrown together.”
Thank you so much! I appreciate that, and just shows how good the technology is to be able to do that!
This is the Absolute best i've seen , such a master class , i learnt so much .... i really appreciate you sir
Thank you as well, I truly appreciate that!
Thanks a lot for the video, Eric. I just found your channel-- on the very same day I ordered a Helix LT!! I should have it Saturday. And if there are more incredibly helpful videos like this, I'm sure we're going to be spending a lot of time together!
I play/sing in a cover band on the weekends, and I'm really hoping this thing will be able to replace my 80+ lbs Egnater for the vast majority of gigs. We'll see. I hope Line 6 doesn't let me down!
Thank you for the kind words. I really hope you enjoy your Helix!
thanks for the tutorial my man !!
Any time!
I know I'm late to the game but, this is really really good. Helped me wrap my brain around a few things in just 5 minutes. Incredible - Thanks!
You are very welcome, I am happy to hear that our video was of help to you! Hang around for some more tips here on the channel as well!
Extremely well done. You must be an exceptional teacher.
Thank you very kindly!
Just got one and I've been recording with it like crazy. It's a great tool especially for home use. I can easily see being able to gig with it.
Congrats on your purchase. I hope you are still having fun with it!
Super helpful, thanks!
Very welcome, thank you for watching as well!
Thank you! I just got my helix yesterday. I have music practice today so won’t be able to do much with it today and tonight. Friday afternoon I’ll update the firmware. Then figure out how to make a new preset.
You’ve been very helpful thank you!
Awesome, glad to be of service!
Great sound and perfect explanation! Whatsapp about a Santana style.
Dude! I’m only at 17:00 right now. I just have to jump in and say that Duel Pitch is bad ass! Right when you strummed the chords I thought I was back as a Van Halen concert! I had no clue this board it that bad ass! I’ve had my helix for about 6 months now and been doing shows with it on simple setting but, now after watching this in going to delve deeper and see what I can come up with!
Thank you so much!! And if you dig Van Halen, you may just LOVE my EVH Presets!! Check them out here: shop.line6.com/marketplace/?addon_vendor=137&_ga=2.102913088.1115941410.1578670249-1904409394.1567864498
I am just seeing this video! all these months later. This is exactly what I wanted sound wise!! Thank you man. I've subscribed.
Really glad this helped, and thank you so much for the kind words and subbing. Do you have a Helix currently?
Music Gear Network yes I just purchased a Helix a few months ago and have felt a bit overwhelmed, even after playing got 30 years or so. (I’m 46). This was a great primer on getting a Van Halen time that I love! Thanks again!
@@michaeltuggey7232 Awesome so great to hear!! Here is to a great 2020 filled with awesome tone and inspiration. Cheers!
Thanks man you're such a life saver
My absolute pleasure. Enjoy your Helix!
Hey!! Thanks for the info
You are very welcome.
Cool video, thank you!
You are very welcome! Thank you for checking it out!
Wow, great vid!
Thank you kindly! Glad you enjoyed it!
holy crap, when you did the van halen low-high with the +7 -7 i got goosebumps. Holy **** what a tone, can't wait to get mine next weekend...
Fantastic, glad you enjoyed it. And enjoy your new Helix as well!
Great info and video!
Thank you Janice!
Cool - thanks as I will be looking to add a Helix (Floor preferred) to my set up in the near future.
Wicked awesome buddy!
Hi Eric, I know this video is old but I wanted to say that I love your helix and variax videos. I have gotten a shuriken and a helix rack in the past few years and really love them. and your videos really make me want the variax so thanks.
I can't thank you enough for the kind words. I'm really glad you enjoyed this and other videos. Keep on rockin and have fun!
I am so glad I watched this as I nearly threw away the USB stick and the cable as they were in the bottom of the packages. Thank you!! :-)
I'm glad you watched it too! The USB sticks are cool looking as well, and saves the unnecessary printed manuals. Less waste of paper. Thanks for checking out the video!
Thanks 😊
Hiya Eric, great patch! I'm not new to Line 6 (played a Spider for years) but I am new to Helix and this is perfect for explaining the creation of a patch quickly and easily. Thank you very much. Also a big Ed fan so that helps too.
Very glad this was of help to you! Thank you for watching and the nice feedback!
New Helix user. Lots to learn. Good Video.
Thank you kindly and enjoy your new Helix!
What most of us look for is how to reproduce those tones that are heard in Helix's videos. Through the different brands of frfr speakers, real speakers, PA, amplifiers that work very well with stomboxes, such as the Fender Princeton. but as much as I try I mean adjustments in the equalizations, compressors, changes in the signal chain. etc. We never found, mainly with distortions and amplifier emulators.
Thank you
Thank you!!
Very welcome!
Great video
Thank you for a great video .... a wonderful communicator ... YES, I subscribed ... looking forward to your videos ... thank you again ...
I appreciate that greatly, Thank you huge for subbing as well. I promise more Helix related content soon too! Lots of it.
@@musicgearnetwork you got it!!
@@musicgearnetwork Great!!
Thank you! I am very intrigued by the Helix. I have not purchased it yet. Still using a lot of Boss pedals with my old school pedal board. This is a pedal board I am definitely planning on getting.
Thanks for your great teaching video.
You are very welcome and thank you for the very kind words! Hope to see you around here again!
Thanks man.. i was able to update my Helix LT accordingly :)
very welcome and that is great to hear!
Best helix demo on UA-cam!
Thank you so very much! Appreciated!
My Helix should be here Monday. I bought it because of this channel, thank you for the tutorial, I can't wait to learn more!
That is AWESOME to hear! I can't wait for you to get it. Congrats on your purchase and thank you for the very kind words. Many more LIVE Helix tutorials coming soon as well.
@@musicgearnetwork You can be assured I'll be checking them out :). Big thanks for your work and this channel!
Excellent Video...
Thank you so much!! I appreciate it!
Helix is so amazing. I sold mine & got the HX Stomp, which works EXACTLY the same. Line 6 is really amazing. I decided I can get away with the Stomp, a Morningstar MC6, a Seymour Duncan PS170 & basically tour the world & be just fine. Tiny board that I can carry on a plane with no issues. Technology is incredible nowadays. This is a great video to show someone just how easy the Helix can be.
Huge thank you. Glad you enjoyed the video and agreed, much easier and cheaper to travel with a full rig these days!
Great tutorial- very well and professional look to the video. If I may ask, what speakers or monitors are you running the Helix through?
Thank you Eric for the amazing insights into the Helix! Being an old school technophobe, I panic at certain digital technologies! Panic over, Helix Floor purchased! Thank you so much 🤘
You are welcome to infinity my friend!
