I honestly think these videos are the best resource for Helix owners. You’ve introduced us to many amps I wouldn’t even think of trying. I can’t thank you enough.
Jason, thanks SO MUCH for the fine work you do. It's been a tremendous help to me. I learn a lot by watching you go through your process. I also finally got around to showing you my appreciation of your talents through PayPal. :) I definitely am looking forward to your next post on YT!
My pleasure Tom :-) So glad the videos are helpful! Thank you so much for your very kind donation, it is really very much appreciated! Much more to come...
Awesome again Jason, your making my choices so difficult between both new models! My question me seem a bit strange , we run a jam night every week and I have to have suitable tones for any player who wants to get up, at present I’m running the helix floor into the power cab plus on the creamback setting then using the helix on Cali ch1 clean then with crunch , med od then heavy with a solo boost at the end , verb always on switchable comp,univibe,chorus and delay to try to cover all angles best I can for myself and ease of use for jammers Is there a way to have for example one of your rigs with your clean,pushed od and dist with a switchable solo boost on any of these and switchable chorus or delay as well I know it may seem a lot to ask but maybe you can help as this placater model seems fantastic as well as the job you’ve done on the Cali Cheers Alan
Thank you so much Alan :-) What you describe wouldn't be hard to do at all! If you could email me with that request at jay@sadites.com I will see what I can do!
Love your videos, Jason! Do you have a video that explane how to change guitars, tunings, acc and electric within a snap shot? I’m using a Variax JTV 59. Best regards Geir
Thank you so much Geir :-) Unfortunately, I do not own a Variax so likely would not be of much help in this department. So sorry I couldn't be of more help!
Jason, Very Good. Thanks. A question: when you use delay in your patches for recording, do you set Helix or Native to sync the delays with the song tempo? Best, RB-
hey i like your vids and the placater has been my goto amp for over a year. I tried to use sample your helix file for this placater 2.60 version and my editor says the file you have on customtone has "failed to import 1 or more preset, model used in preset not recognized?" Big orange banner across my computer. I can download other stuff, first problem I've had... have you had other complaints? I'd like to get a feel for what you've done on this patch... thx,, Dennis
Thanks so much and glad you like the videos :-) Anytime anybody has had a hard time loading the presets, it was pretty much always that they were on an older version of HX Edit. Try installing the latest version of HX Edit and it will likely solve the problem..let me know if it works for you!
Hi Jason, another great video, thanks! One of the fattest fusion lead tones ever, in my opinion, must be Carlos Rios' on the 1978 Gino Vannelli album Brother To Brother. Any idea how to replicate that sound? I'm not sure, but I think I read somewhere he used some kind of Dumble amp (ODS?) on those sessions.
Thank you so much Tom :-) I will have to listen to Carlos tone on that album again but I remember really loving that one. Would be a good one to examine!
Hi Jason, great video as always. I was thinking that now the Powercabs are out that you could may be do some Helix patches designed to play through the Powercab with certain speakers selected on the cab. I'm sure Line6 will give you a Powercab for that purpose ;-)
Any chance you can do the mesa boogie cali IV series next? I find the rhythm channel 2 to be basically unusable. channel 1 is great and lead is fine with with the drive basically dimed. idk i know they're supposed to be great amps but i'm having a hard time with them.
I don't mind doing those amp models at all :-) I actually just finished shooting this week's Dialing In... video tonight which will be released Thursday but let me try and get to those next week!
Really do appreciate these videos but unless someone has the exact same equipment and playing style as you do it's never going to sound the same. I learned that the hard way spending thousands on equipment that I judged by youtube videos.
I honestly think these videos are the best resource for Helix owners. You’ve introduced us to many amps I wouldn’t even think of trying. I can’t thank you enough.
My pleasure and so glad the videos are helpful Paul :-)
Awesome job as usual Jason, without a doubt your videos are the best Helix resource I've found bar none!!! Thanks so much for what you do~
Thank you so much Michael :-) SO glad you like the videos!! It is my pleasure!
Once again, GREAT stuff Jason. I knew I loved the Placater but you have REALLY sold me on it as my Go To amp.
Thank you so much Jerry :-) It is a really great model, hope you enjoy!

Thanks for the vid. As always, I watch and learn something new.
My pleasure and so glad you enjoyed :-)
Great work jason
As always terrific Jason Steve
Thank you so much Steve :-)
Cool that you have the RS 620 now. I have it too and can completely copy your settings for some amps 👍
Cool Ronald :-) I am really enjoying the RS620, really great guitar!
Great work Jason.
Thank you so much Paul :-)
Great as always, sorry I’ve forgotten in the past to give you the thumbs up, I usually forget...👍
Thank you so much John and thanks for the thumbs up :-)
I will definitely be loading this one. I always tend to add a boost for lead punch a bit louder too. GREAT work!!
Awesome, hope it works out perfect for you Jerry :-)

Is there a way to have for example one of your rigs with your clean,pushed od and dist with a switchable solo boost on any of these and switchable chorus or delay as well

Very Good. Thanks.
A question: when you use delay in your patches for recording, do you set Helix or Native to sync the delays with the song tempo?
Best, RB-
Thank you so much Robert :-) Yes I always sync the delay to the song tempo. I even do it live bu using tap tempo. Thanks for asking!
Very nice
Thank you so much Daric :-)

Awesome well done... Would love to hear your take on some really chimey pristine clean tones... ie: images and words era Dream Theater clean tones...
Thank you so much Andrew :-) Great idea for the clean tones, I will see what I can do!
I second this, would love to hear that! Keep up the good work Jason and thank you!
Will see what I can do :-)
Hi Jason, great video as always. I was thinking that now the Powercabs are out that you could may be do some Helix patches designed to play through the Powercab with certain speakers selected on the cab. I'm sure Line6 will give you a Powercab for that purpose ;-)
Thank you so much Andrew :-) I am supposed to have a PowerCab coming in the very near future and will be doing lots of videos with it!
Any chance you can do the mesa boogie cali IV series next? I find the rhythm channel 2 to be basically unusable. channel 1 is great and lead is fine with with the drive basically dimed. idk i know they're supposed to be great amps but i'm having a hard time with them.

Oh that's awesome. Thanks! really appreciate it
My pleasure :-)
What's the settings of your delay?
Is your guitar volume and tone always full when dialing in tones?
Usually it is all the way up Pieter.
I usually mention it if I change those settings.
Thanks Jason!
My pleasure Pieter :-)
Ay Jason whomever dont like what you do must like rap. Or they,re drummers.
Lol, thank you so much Elliott :-)
AND ALL without even adding a distortion pedal!!!
Yup, the way I usually prefer it :-)
Really do appreciate these videos but unless someone has the exact same equipment and playing style as you do it's never going to sound the same. I learned that the hard way spending thousands on equipment that I judged by youtube videos.
Yes that pretty much goes without saying.
I love the placater presets!!
