Helix Talk

Mine doesn’t either.

I got the angled plug. Depending on what I’m plugging into it’s fine, but usually it just turns my power strip into a power L.

 

[Sascha Franck]

I think that's mostly an issue specific to the Americas

No, these big ass wall warts are quite an annoyance for me as well.

 

[Byrdman]

I‘m okay with an external power supply. But why the angled plug? It‘s either in the way of the power switch or the USB port.

I always thought it probably has to be a certain size due to amps and voltage, so instead of sticking straight out a lot further. Maybe ones sold overseas are different due to 110v 60Hz vs 220v 50hz amperage requirements

Mine is L shaped and you are right, it can be a pain in the ass sometimes.

helix rack and controller for 700 bucks!!!

 

[ragingplatypi]

I don’t need a black sparkle when I already have a stormtrooper white, but I feel like I do

I have a white Stomp and red Pod Go, and I have to admit, I don’t ever want to buy a black pedal ever again.

Anything in the Helix close enough to the old and bold Peavey Standard/Musician from the 70's, with that raunchy fuzz circuit?

I know zilch about the other (more popular) Peavey models, so it's kinda difficult, which is why I thought I'd ask you guys.

 

[holoholo]

Where can you order those? I was looking for just that to buy some and keep them with me whereever I may take the Stomp.

I just remember getting it off amazon for a small board I was running. Looks like they updated the model to this:

Amazon.com

It's $18. I don't remember it being that expensive when I got it

Hm, doesn't load...

Uhm, are we talking about the same thing? That's showing a PSU.

Hmpf, shit, I misquoted your post. I am actually only interested in these:

And I mean exactly these. Angled, 2.1mm in, 2.5mm out.

I picked up a pack of 5 pretty cheaply from amazon.

That said, 3.80 is going to be a relatively small update, but it'll make a few vocal people very happy.

Small update, but will make people happy? Why is there so little speculation about this on this forum?

Yeah - no idea why my previous search didn't yield proper results. I guess I'll just order a whole bunch of those and keep them in each and every utility case/bag.

I would rather like to know whether I'm considered "vocal people". Given that I have my first time ever serious gig as a part time lead singer next week (well, it's really just two songs and I've done more before, but this is a decent money gig...), I do at least hope to be a vocal guy.

Global Blocks confirmed

My guess is it will include another often requested amp like another Marshall. Silver Jubilee?

Doubt it, that seems like a recent request, not many vocal people about it.

@Digital Igloo
There are a lot of nice blog posts on blog.line6.com.
Here is a suggestion: Compressors in the Helix - what do they do? How do they differ? What to use them for?

Also a question: is there an upward compressor in the Helix?

 

[Sascha Franck]

Fwiw, for the Stomp it'd be amazing if there was a loop block allowing you to feed both the L and R loops simultaneously or alternatively. The latter is something I would use all the time. Having an additional freed up block would be exactly what I needed for a little setup I'm just trying to slap together. Without that block I'm having quite a tough time.
