  • Join Sean Halley as he discusses the benefits when reamping electric guitars, and then shows you how to use the built-in reamping capability of Helix to change the basic tone of a guitar solo after it has already been recorded.

    Hi Sean. Great tips video! When I was home recording my guitar tracks for our band’s project against the bed mix with my Helix, I recorded my parts with reamping in mind. I inserted an out block in the patch positioned after the volume and wah modules to retain that part of the performance and still be able to reamp it after. I set this mono out to go to Send 1. I also did another mono out to Send 2 that was post-amp and pre-effects so the engineer could tweak reverbs, etc. to his liking. In parallel with these two, I also recorded the Helix stereo out with all the effects included. I sent these 2 mono and 1 stereo tracks to the studio for mixdown. This approach helped give our engineer tons of flexibility for tweaking. Your video here will really help us - I wasn’t aware of Helix’s built-in Re-amp Src features. Amazing!

    Are you using Helix as an interface? I have tried to do it but I do not succeed. The track that you open in guitar direct protools is a normal audio track?

    What if I want to cycle through presets and hear how my DI sounds with them? Having to edit the input block every time you change a patch, sucks.

    Actually, not that its related to DI but can I ask why you chose to Stereo track your solo? I'm curious because I never thought about it before, but I can see the benefits to it.

    I have a problem I’m hoping someone can help me with-
    I have helix setup as follows
    Guitar - helix - output L and R - input L and R to audio interface - interface via usb to computer. And the obvious outputs to monitors.
    I usually record in cubase 10.5 via the audio interface ( ssl 2+ )
    Is there a way of keeping this setup within cubase but also having the DI track.
    I find using the helix as the interface means I can’t use the monitors as a source when not using cubase.
    How are people getting around it?
    My thoughts are I want to record a DI when I play on my regular patches so if I wish I can change the amps etc afterwards

    This works great when I have my play engine set to the Helix but when I have it set to ProTools Aggregate to combine my Antelope Orion and my Mackie Big Knob to the mix I don't get any signal to play for either my wet or DI tracks. This is important cuz I have my monitors set up through my Orion. Everything is clocked at 44.1 with the Orion as the master, I have made sure I have the recent drives downloaded, I have the most recent firmware and I even set all of my I|O to default and confirmed they match in my Audio MIDI setup. What am I missing here?

    I have tried to do this myself! I was able to record the "direct guitar" on USB 7 in. However, I have done EVERYTHING Sean has shown... but I don't see the "output" of USB7, like he has here... I called into customer support. They couldn't help me. I was kind of shocked. Line 6 customer support has ALWAYS been OUTSTANDING... with the exception of being able to help me with this. The guy on the phone just told me to read the manual. (I had done that...) He suggested I make a support ticket... I did. NEVER heard back from ANYONE! Bummer...

      This depends on the outputs you have available on your audio interface.I had to make an aggregate device which enables me to use the Helix interface in conjunction with my MOTU Audio Interface.It works a treat on a Mac.

  • @ThomasAlkaersig

    Why not just use the Helix Native Plugin? does it not do the exact same thing as the Helix unit itself?

  • @jackelliott3608
    @jackelliott3608 8 лет назад

    So couldn't I just record a direct guitar track without effects (and without using the reamp on input 7) and edit it until I like it, then send it through the helix again for processing? Basically what you did without recording 2 tracks right up front.

  • @SecondsFromEternity

    I finally got a helix! Do you guys think I should double track my guitars for a rock record with les Paul/Marshall then schecter hellraiser/mesa dual rectifier or should I just record once though helix then reamp for second track?

    • @brandontadday6288
      @brandontadday6288 6 лет назад +1

      Definitely double track. Reamping onto a second track won't create the same widening effect that double tracking creates as the reason why double tracking sounds so huge is because of the slight variations in timing, pitch and performance between two separately panned performances. You could alternatively create a high gain rhythm stereo patch with one pathway set for the marshall and the other set for a mesa dual rectifier on the Helix and get a similar result. Double tracking is just the classic way of doing it.
