If you're sitting at a table with an electric guitar, an amp modeler, and headphones, at a Starbucks... You're still a psycho. Seriously. No one does that. Stop. ;) Great video and an interesting perspective.

Well putting an HX Stomp (645€) and HX Effects (599€) together that way isn't sparing any money at all. The Helix Floor is selling now for 1249€ (same price as the combo) and the Helix LT for 899€. The prices just fall by 200€ in September 2024. However HX Stomp and HX Effects prices are still the same and even rising for last four years. In 2020 an HX Stomp was sold around 549€. Using HX-Stomp/HX Effects approach has following drawbacks : - You still don't have an expression pedal included - 4 Cable Method needed - Powering with 9DC/2A needed for the Stomp, don't know how much the HX effects needs. In a Helix LT/Floor you just plug in AC - Live editing mode not available for quick adjustments. On Helix Floor/LT just go into editing mode, select parameter to be adjusted and adjust it with the EXP-Pedal.

I cant seem to find it on the HX effects, is there a way to spill over effects, moving from a accoustic patch to a distortion creates a break and flow of the song. Ive googled the daylights out of this and all keep referring to the Helix HX but not the HX effects. Any help would be great...

"DI" has nothing to do with USB or recording. It means the main output is balanced and ready to be plugged straight into a microphone preamp without a DI box. You need a 1/4 to XLR adapter or pigtail cable do to that, but that is how it is meant to work. Dave Friedman himself told me that the output is designed to go straight to mic preamp (as opposed to a line-in or a hi-z input)

Bypassing the IR with the footswitch does not bypass the poweramp simulation. The poweramp sounds better with the new firmware update I think (could be placebo)

Your funny...but also very right.

I use my HX Stomp for 6 years extensively. I`m a little fed up with fiddeling menues on stage.... Ususaly just a simple Fender amp and a little reverb+slapback delay. Would you recomend me to get a Drem 65?

Nice!. Love your playing and thanks for sharing. Peace!

Then put it down and move along scooter.

What is your obsession of using fart as a reference?

I also own the Kemper Profiler Head and the HX Stomp. My advice to you would be the following. I see that you have two Strats hanging on the wall. Sell the Squier, keep the PRS. Sell the HX Effects and sell the HX Stomp. Instead, buy either the Line 6 Helix or a Neural DSP Quad Cortex. Also, consider selling all of the tube and solid state amps that you have on the video, and instead purchase a Fender amp such as the Deluxe Reverb. This way you will have a professional profiler (Kemper), modeler (Helix or Quad), and a tube amp (Fender Deluxe). These three will cover most of the necessary studio and live needs for a long time, and in the end it will save you more money. I am also about to sell my HX Stomp and a bunch of other gear and get either the Helix or the Quad Cortex. I think I’ll be getting the Quad Cortex as it seems more future proof for the next while and its smaller size than Helix.

You're a great explainer. Thank you

I bought the Tonemaster Pro, the Fender Models are superior, and i have the inspiring moments every evening, together with all the effects i want and could think of

Guitar Center and community!? Nope. GC destroyed the guitar community in my area by undercutting the independent dealers. It will be a good thing when it’s gone

The guitar community needs to save independent dealers. Guitar Center made its mission to destroy mom and pop stores and it needs payback.

I’m sorry, but that combo is only $100 cheaper

Can you do a review with the firmware update that just came out?

I had some what the same problem with the IRX and I think it comes down to the power amp simulator ! I gives it a kind of stiffness with very little compression ! I tried to love it but couldn’t !

That's a great perspective on realistic modelling, thank you for your thoughts! The urge to get to a finished song with good tools and the joy of not having to fiddle around too much... It all comes down to which musical choices are the right one for you - with the implied compromises you care less about.

Hey Billy! Love the video. I have purchased one of the Friedman IRX"S too. You mentioned something about the valvetronic amp from Vox and had a video about getting a better tone out of it. I would love to get a secret to unlock a better tone. Thanks so much and keep rockin!!

D16gt with Mahogany back and sides is better IMHO, sweeter tone with better mids. Rosewood is lacking mids and bright which is filled in by singer, MAHOGANY!

Hi enjoyed the video whats that tune called your playing at 3 minutes 45 seconds sounds great

I love my IRX. Use it live weekly

This made me WANT to buy one more than sell one. 😂

Alamo sells them for $3700ish

Hahah I Had so much Fun watching this video I have a kemper for 4 Years Now It's a Never Ending Story😊 Looking forward to your Next kemper video. Cheers

Less than 1,000 views, yet if you google “how to effectively use a 2 band EQ” this is the top result! You have won the search engine algorithm

El único video en RUclips que explica como funciona un ecualizador de 2 bandas, muchas gracias, saludos desde México!!!😊

and.. it sounds like a mandolin

I had the same conversation with myself at guitar center

Ooh "tone" plywood. Sorry.. I'm actually intrigued alot by this guitar. If I can find a used one for a good price I'll buy it.

Is it worth buying only to be used as a preamp into an amp head in the return? I have a kraken preamp that sounds great that way, but I find it too tight after using a Xotic SL drive last couple of months.

Its made out of plywood😂

F what tune guys think.

Man not sure what you’re talking about. Universal Audio w/ the Dream & Ruby are killing it right now. Top notch for sure

Put your phone down and play your guitar

😂😂😂😂😂 Billy I didn’t think they worked from the get go 😅 you tried

I have the IR-D, and I get a decent overdriven sound out of it, but I mainly use one of the channels in a "clean" setting and then just use a good overdrive in front of it. I'm happy with the results

Very nice son

Put your phone down and start making music for other people

Have a good day

I suck too but I don't have to put it on a video God loves you

No you suck

Yeah yeah Chinese chicken come from
