I re-created my pedals in the Line 6 HX One and I'm SHOCKED... I'm shocked because after years of spending countless hours dialing in the sweet spot in my pedalboard rig, I was able to, in a matter of hours get extremely similar tones with the HX One. You have to take a listen for yourself.
In this video, I'm peeling back the curtain on how I was able to re-create my go-to pedals: Deep Six, Bender Fuzz, Belle Starr, Moonshine, Mobius, Timeline, and BigSky, all inside of the HX One. First, I'll take you through the process of dialing in compression, fuzz, and overdrive fx I used. Finally, we'll deep dive into re-creating the un-recreatable: Strymon Mobius, Timeline, and BigSky. In truth, the Helix ecosystem's modulation, delay, and reverb FX are really really solid. But I'll let you decided if they can hold up to the Strymon staples we all love.
It looks like you'll be able to downsize your pedalboard without downsizing your tone! Or I guess you could keep your massive pedalboard, replace a pedal or two with the HX One and then add in new pedals where you removed some. Either way, I found the HX One to be impressive, and an excellent tool for those looking to get a ton of guitar tones in a small package.

@mrstrypes 3 месяца назад

Phenomenal demo! Next level! My difficulty with digital multi-effects units has always been that they require a LOT of tweaking to get the sound to within 99% of what I'm after, whereas I can arrive there more quickly with analog pedals and get to the 100% mark. That said, you got these sounds REALLY close to their counterparts and didn't seem to take forever to get there.

@JustinMuncy 3 месяца назад

Thank you so much!! There's definitely a learning curve to the multi-fx boxes- It took me a while to get a feel for them, but then something just clicked and now programming changes is actually quite a bit quicker for me, and practical. I can't see myself turning knobs in the middle of a set, let alone remember where to turn them to for each song haha! I found the HX One to be fairly intuitive too! Most of the parameters are pretty straight forward which helps-

@nickgriffis3405 3 месяца назад

Fun video. As a long time helix user, who just bought an fm9, my biggest sticking points with the helix were the amp sounds and the reverbs (not that there is anything wrong with them, they just didn't quite sit right to my ears. I used to have a big sky, and the cloud is my jam, and the helix doesn't do cloud). the drives, delays, modulation, compression, etc, are as good as anything out there. The hx stomp can replace half a pedalboard.

@JustinMuncy 3 месяца назад

Thanks Nick! For sure- I haven't used a stomp or Helix so I can't speak to the amp thing, but I've heard similar critiques to what you're saying. Pretty cool devices!

@korygaviria9197 24 дня назад

Hey Justin! Could you post what algorithms you used for the A/B tests against the other pedals? I’ve been trying to get a good fuzz tone on my HX one and yours sounded soo good!

@thomaschilds8781 3 месяца назад

Impressive how close you managed to match so many top tier pedals. That Belle Star though had some special sparkle that the HX One didn't quite do.

@JustinMuncy 3 месяца назад

Thanks so much!! I think there’s something a little creamier in the mid range on the Belle Starr. It has a really particular voicing for sure-

@ratedepth Месяц назад

@@JustinMuncyWhich drive were you using to approximate that one?

@marklong4980 3 месяца назад

I guess the main reason I sold most of my pedals and bought an HX keeping only my very favorites is that every time I gigged there would always be something in the signal path that would get messed up. When you have 13 pedals connected in series this bound to happen. Thanks for showing you can get really close with an HX.

@JustinMuncy 3 месяца назад

Thanks so much! I know what you mean- I've had a cable go down in the middle of a set many a time. Definitely not the most fun thing to happen when you're playing, but it almost feels like a right of passage in a way lol-

@pclindholm 3 месяца назад

@JustinMuncy 3 месяца назад

@XpldedSplit 3 месяца назад

Hi, for my ear it sounded like you have overall a little bit less volume on Hx one, which is made some audible difference at the midrange of every preset that you made and made the sound less rich than the pedals

@billsstudio2528 12 дней назад

400 more bucks and you have HX FX. Then you could do modulation/dly/od/etc, with 5-6 FX at once. For the value and quick 'pedal tone grabs' I can see how this could work most times. Good vid man!

@Helix-Man Месяц назад

You need to maxed out the Damping in hx one very last demo of big reverb to get brighter reverb close to big sky

@martinhaywood8040 12 дней назад

I’m a bass player but love your simple and effective approach to your video. Some of the early patches in the video seem to have a bit less gain than the sound you are trying to emulate if that helps 🤔

@JustinMuncy 12 дней назад

Thank you so much homie! That could definitely be. I've noticed that when I A/B things live, hearing the difference in gain is more difficult than when listening back on a recording. But at any rate, this was one of those cases where I spent so much time A/Bing it, it was just time to let the video be haha! Appreciate you-

@leavingsoulsBO 3 месяца назад

While I've been a Helix user for a while I didn't expect it would be so close to some of those, especially the fuzz where the digital tends to fail. Good work there, even if maybe the HX FX would suit you more as a live pedalboard replacement, rather than the HX One which is more of a "jack of all trades" pedalboard addition in case you need that one odd effect every once in a while

Sorry, sounds like crap to me to be honest. Maybe you got a bad mic or someting but it's so muddy it hurts to listen to it. I use a Line 6 Pod XT Pro Rackmount with a Line 6 FBX controller, through a Marshall 9200. No need for a bunch of pedals, it's got all the best ones built in and I can run several effects at a time. I like the Line 6 setup for my effects and the power of the 9200's Stereo 100w 5881 powered amps. Plenty of power and a great tone.

@Java8427 12 дней назад

Helix line has great sounds and flexibility, form factor etc., and does only one effect at a time. Not a useful buy. I’ll wait for Helix Stomp 2.0.

I think Line 6 was probably thinking if consumers will buy a pedal that does 1 thing for 300 dollars, then the fact that this does 250 for the same price is an added bonus. Sort of like the H9-

tf you mean useless pedals? it’s dumb to have one pedal that does effects digitally

@RapturesDelight 3 месяца назад

Digital will never sound the same. Digital sounds flat with much less complexity to the drive and fuzz. The pedal board has sweed harmonics. I know a lot of touring bads and churches I've been to use the Kempers, and even those are lacking. But for touring bands with fly cases or churches that need low stage volume they make more sense.
