Getting Started with Helix LT - A Beginner’s Guide

It took me watching several videos to learn all of this info, so I thought I'd put it together all in one for you.

I'm loving the @line6movies Helix LT, and while most of it is VERY intuitive, there are a few tricks that can save you time if you learn them up front.

Check out the more detailed videos from @Line6Support .

My favorite presets start with packs from both @RhettShull and @worshiptutorials , so definitely check them out! Rhett's Deluxe Reverb and Marshall Plexi are DIVINE, and the Vox presets from Worship Tutorials round out all my ambient needs.

Modeling has come a LONG way in the last few years. Try this through a Headrush FRFR, and you'll be blown away.

Hey Justin, thanks for the video. One quick thing on moving blocks - you don't actually need to do the copy and paste then delete the original block. As soon as you press action, the block is in "move mode" (my term, not Line 6's!). You can then just move left and right with the joystick and it'll shift it around and rejig other blocks to fit this one in.

Hope this helps! Cheers.

It’s all easy and good to know but Helix edit on Computer is really Fun !

11:15 you wanted to go to COMMAND CENTER to setup your board to have any button do any thing you want like either an effects pedal or Snapshot 1, 2, 3, etc or Preset. You accidentally went to Controller Assign

The controls are pretty intuitive, certainly more so than a Fractal. Using them to creates good tones requires considerable study and practice, however.

8:30 you need to tie the end of Path A to Path B by going to the end of the path A output and route it to path B with the DOWN arrow icon so that it creates one long signal chain. the way you have it for half of the video you have two SEPARATE paths, which is helpful if you want to have a bass AND guitar and have different effects for each but in your example you are trying to create just one long signal chain but you never connected Path A to B so your looper didnt have the amp and effects included. You finally figured it out by 8:50 though congrats :)

Totally talked me out of buying a helix

I wish helix had their user interface like Boss GT100. The easiest interface that even a first timer will get it within 10 minutes. Helix interface sucks balls. I am still scratching my head with the LT.

4:30 - if you TOUCH both buttons it will let you SWITCH the location of switches of the 2 pedals quickly

give me analog or give me death... oh wait, half my pedals are digital. THIS THING IS SO COOL!
