I saw you using the Line 6 Helix on stage?
Can you describe your gear and setup for us?
Yeah I'm using the Helix.
So in a sense the setup is simple if you can call Helix that.
Just the Stick straight into the returns of the Helix and out to PA on stage or into the soundcard inputs if at home.
I'm using the returns of Helix because there are no two dedicated inputs with identical sensitivity.
Inside the Helix I'm most of the time processing the Stick sides separately even if identically, that gives me clarity with distortion, so that the two sides won't modulate each other.
Sometimes though when I want the sound of a single guitar riff, I'll use mono distortion/amp drive. Otherwise it'll start to sound like Thin Lizzy.
When I'm recording at home I use Helix Native instead. Then the Helix floor acts just as a MIDI controller.
