In this video I take a look at what I feel is one of the most misunderstood fx blocks we have in the Helix, the almighty compressor! There is a lot of misinformation floating around the internet about how a compressor should or can be used and in this video I hope to shine some light on some popular myths. If you would like to watch my other videos that dive more in depth into how a compressor works, you can do so at the links below:

Jason, anytime someone feels the need to troll in on your comment section just remind them to share that on THEIR highly popular and useful channel. Keep it up. I always enjoy the logic and explanation behind your videos. 👍🏼
Thank you John 🙏🏻
Helpful as always, Jason. Nobody goes further in helping expand my understanding of the Helix. Thank you.
Jason, great content as always. I like the way that you research the features of the Helix to better understand what their intended features are to better use the Amp/Effect/etc. You also have the keen insight of additional functionality that the folks at Line 6 give us sometimes. You have explained this approach to using Compressors before and it is always good to go into a little more detail and demonstration. I think that I am a better engineer because of you (and what I have learned in Nashville working with Stephen Leweke at Yakland Studios and Derri Daugherty at Dan Michael's home studio). Keep putting out great content - and don't forget to grace us with another album soon!
I’m very good at dialing in 2 types of compression: “doesn’t do anything”and “sounds like crap.”
I had one shining moment of using a dynacomp to get perfect chicken pickin’ telecaster tone…maybe. I’m so garbage at that kind of playing it was hard to tell. 😂
😂❤
I will def review my current presets after viewing this and guessing I'm not the only one who will either. Thanks Jason.
Whats humorous to me about this whole concept of post wet/fx compression is that it's used all the time in studio situations: Dry guitar signals are commonly routed to fx/buses that contain a delay or reverb heavily treated by a parallel compressor. This creates effects that diminish in loudness while the dry signal is present and increase loudness as the dry signal decreases. This allows these wet fx to be noticed in the empty spaces around the dry signal moreso than they would be otherwise. The only place you can actually perform parallel compression in the guitar world would be through wet/dry/wet routing, but a compressor at the end of a mono signal can be used to simulate this effect if the mix knobs of the wet effects don't exceed the DB of the dry signal.
Great stuff man. After all this time, I still find compression a challenge. This helped, thank you :-)
Thx! A step closer to understand how it serves my tone.
My pleasure 😀
The "Preamp" Block is the one I use the least, actually not at all. I do not run my HX Stomp signal out to exterior Cabs or an Amp. I just run it into a Mixer and use Monitoring Headphones. John Cordy has an old video about to use a Preamp Block as a type of Overdrive. Do you have any other insights into different and creative and fun ways to use the Preamp Block? I get the feeling I'm overlooking something really cool that I could do with it, particularly in light of the 3.50 update, but I have no idea what it might be. Thanks
Someone said my helix was muddy and I should boost 400 Hz which I'm sure I recall you saying that 400 was where mud lived? Which is correct
Jason, can compression be used to remove sound of the pick?
I just found out that you live in St. Thomas, that's so cool, because i live there too.
Thanks brother. You're the best!
Which amp block is being used in this illustration!?
I see it now thank you!
