👆 Line 6 Helix LT Floor Amp & FX Modelling Unit - tinyurl.com/y394ay5p
The Line 6 Helix LT is a lighter, more streamlined version of the highly-popular Helix standard. Boasting all of the same amp and effect modelling technology of its bigger brother, but with less footswitches, a simplified interface and not as many inputs and outputs, the Helix LT is still a valid choice for the serious musician.
With over 200 amp, effect, cabinet and microphone models available, the Helix LT is the epitome of a versatile, all-encompassing floorboard solution. It's fair to say that Line 6 has come a long way since its first digital amp modellers from 20 years ago. Now offering incredibly convincing reproductions of desirable, renowned amps and effects with its award-winning HX modelling engine and dual-DSP, there's a reason why many modern players are turning to products like the Helix LT.

Bought this as soon as it came out, it has bass player all over it because there’s less inputs and outputs and expression pedals etc and as a rule they’re not used as much for bass as they are for the show off guitar players out there. As well as being cheaper than the Helix this unit makes massive sense, guitars sound good too through this.

@davidmatos3603 2 года назад

I'm a bass player and bought the HX STOMP to simulate amps and cabs. firstly, the video is not explicit in the cabinets they are using... and I know why. If you take an electric guitar and connect it to this equipment, it sounds good. The guitar sounds are fantastic and I would say usable. As far as Electric Bass is concerned, that's another story. When you hook up a bass to an amp and cabinet block, it sucks. It sounds muffled, without definition. For some reason, they are using Impulse responses (they could mention where they got it) and 100% compression at the beginning... Line 6 didn't do a good job of this bass material. A warning for those with the HX Stomp, you will always have to use a clean bass line with a lot of tricks - EQ's, Comp's, etc. I leave a challenge for Andertons - Take Pbass, plugin directly to the Helix. Then add an amp and a cab, adjust the volume and show it here. If you want, I can do it, so as not to fool people. If you notice at the beginning, the 3 bass have IR's. Plus, when they ask for a clean bass sound, he puts IR's. why not put the HX Cab's? have all the mics, distances, etc... why? for what? Remember that the expert guy spent a year experimenting and checking how to work with this pedal. Shouldn't it be intuitive? How many basses are there in the world?- Precision, Jazz, Music man. The rest of the electric basses float around the previous ones. If you search - How to get a clean bass sound with Helix/HX on Google, you'll find it's a hot topic. it's not easy to go as it should be. and if it's not easy, it shouldn't be shown as such.

@FrankieBaker2 2 года назад

@79bald 2 года назад

So out of all the m multi effects out in market at moment in your opinion is best for bass.

@mb72oz 5 лет назад

Actually, it's completely valid and useful to have the mix NOT set to 100% for the compressor; this helps retain some of the natural tone and attack / decay characteristics of your bass.

@narco73 4 года назад

Yeah parallel compression is great. Also first thing he did was set the mix to 100% on all the modulation effects too, whilst this gets you a certain sound, it is only when blended against the dry signal that they actually work as intended...

I thought modeling wasn't for me. I couldn't understand people claiming it replaced their amps. Helix and the like especially so, as all the amps tended to sound the same after you really play through them. There was something off about them. Then I tried AxeFX, which also has bass options, and it's won me fully. I was able to get rid of my favorite tube amp (Mesa Triple Rectifier) because I no longer needed it.
