Hey folks… brand new to Helix - recent convert from long time Kemper user.
Need community help please :-)

I’m in a cover band, playing all the popular most requested tunes from 80’s to today.
I’m running a PRS custom 24 piezo.

I don’t want to do the pedalboard tap dance and prefer to run a single scene and have 8 snapshots - so no lag in patch changes.
Really would like some advice on who makes best aftermarket or line6 tones.

Just need a pure acoustic, plus a clean amp (think A30 fawn or Fender Deluxe Vibe) and a “do it all” amp like a Freidman BE100 plus appropriate high quality IR’s to match.
Suggestions ??
Thanks for your help!

Took my litigator patch I've been using live for years, and did an a/b with the same settings on the new Agoura version and the they both sound so so similar. I probably slightly prefer the litigators smooth high a bit more at the moment haha, such a good model still, gonna try both at a gig tomorrow and try to compare and contrast a little, cause why not

HX Effects owner, using it with either my Tone King Imperial or my Mesa Mark V 35 combo.

Initially, I got the HXFX for the delays, reverbs and modulation but recently started trying out some of the drives, mostly out of curiosity. My main go to has been the Strymon Sunset and a couple of Boss pedals but I gotta say, the Pillars drive is incredible. Three modes, all incredibly useful. That one drive may actually boot the others off my board.

Hey all. I have HXFX and an Ernie Ball VP JR. Somehow I had it set up correctly as a volume pedal and then, well, messed around and here I am. Lol.

So it does raise and lower the volume very nicely but in the heel down position, it shuts off the volume block. Any advice is appreciated. Horrible pics included.

Useful for guitar players in wedding / cover bands, or worship. 100% free, no ads, no tracking. Let me know what you think!

Hey everyone!

I'm looking to buy a used Line 6 HX Stomp (regular version, not the XL) in Delhi NCR, India.

My budget is ₹40,000–₹45,000, depending on the condition and included accessories.

Where can i find it?

Quick update for everyone who asked about iPad: Apple has approved USB access for the Helrig iPad app, and it’s now talking to my Helix LT over USB (that’s the pedal and the iPad on the same preset in the picture). The beta is running with a group of testers, and I’m fixing bugs as they come in. No release date yet.

The beta list is full, but I still need testers for two pedals: Helix Rack and HX Effects.

Strictly only:

• a Helix Rack or HX Effects, and
• an iPad with an M-chip (M1 or newer)

As a thank you, beta testers get a Helrig Connect license.

If that’s you, send an email to [hello@helrig.com](mailto:hello@helrig.com) or a DM here with:

• your email address
• your Apple ID, if it’s a different email
• your pedal
• your iPad model

Please don’t post your email or Apple ID in the comments. For all other pedals and iPads the list is closed, sorry!

(Apple only allows USB driver support on M-series iPads, so older iPads won’t work with the app, sadly.)

I've tried various methods over the years. The one common denominator is to keep such sessions to 20 minutes before taking a break ( ear fatigue ). Assuming your sound folks have a clue, they may be the best source of validation because they hear your tone in the venue with a crowd present. Mates on stage, not as much....what they hear from wedges or IEMs isn't what the crowd hears.

I've walked the room, at the venue, with my wireless rig before rehearsal and usually don't like what I hear....again, empty room.

So good headphones at home, decent speakers at home, both at the same time? I'd imagine some of you treat your practice space to try and make it dead? ( you aren't going to get it to mimic a hall seating hundreds ) All of my presets remove the lowest and highest frequencies ( low pass, high pass filtering) so I'm only dealing with 125 hz up to about 6khz

Was looking at the web page for OG Native and I noticed this text "New licenses for original Helix Native software are available only for registered owners of Helix and HX hardware products."

According to the Internet Archive Wayback Machine, this change happened somewhere between July 19 and August 5: https://web.archive.org/web/20260805204841/https://line6.com/helix/helixnative.html

They sent a newsletter promoting Stadium Native on 8/4 but didn't mention discontinuing OG Native. It makes sense they want people using Stadium, just thought it was odd nothing was mentioned.

I'm trying to run a split output to have a DI (with a cab sim or IR) to my mixer and run a power and cab on stage. I consulted this video;

https://youtu.be/ZNYUzbJ7iCk?is=r_euU7c3EFFAflnY

I was quite hopeful and it didn't sound too bad while at home with headphones. At rehearsal it didn't sound great and I found it tough to control the volume of the DI signal. Does anyone else have a solution that works for them? Any suggestions are appreciated.

Thank you all!

I currently have a HX FX and a Nano Cortex. In the future I want to get a Strymon BigSky MX, and a midi foot controller. But I want a single power supply rather than plugging each on in individually. I’ve seen the Canvas Power Supply but I don’t know if that’ll work. Any ideas?

Released 2026-10-20, the release notes didn't say anything more than the 1.4 notes. I assume just a few tweaks? Anyone have any info? Maybe I missed something?

J’ai récemment acheté le pédalier Line 6 pod go avec une enceinte frfr headrush, je m’aperçois que je n’arrive pas à avoir le même rendu que sur des vidéos YouTube ou TikTok que ce soit dans la sortie casque ou enceinte.
Par exemple pour avoir un son bien saturé (high gain) il faut que je mette deux bloc de distorsion quasiment à fond et même comme ça, le preset sonne mal (boueux et avec beaucoup de bruit parasite qui perturbe l’onde d’une note lorsque je la laisse sonner).
Si vous savez d’où ça vient merci de m’aider.

I recently just purchased the fbv3 pedal for a 2nd time this week after thinking the pedal i just returned was broken or something...but turns out im having the same exact problem with this other pedal I bought.

I cant figure out how to get the pedal to control the volume like the fbv shortboard mkii did by standard as soon as its plugged in.

So when you have the pedal down the volumes all the way up and when you use your heel to move the pedal all the way up so the volume is muted unless you bring the foot pedal down at all.

Also when you click the toe switch on the wah pedal it switches the wah pedal on and the wah pedal light turns on but when you play guitar while moving the pedal nothing happens. It just sounds like the wah pedals on and the pedal is just staying on the floor.

Can someone help me with this ive updated my amp its a line 6 spiderv 240 hc mkii, and I updated the pedal and I literally just returned another fbv3 because of the same problem. This is literally my 2nd fbv3 pedal in a week that I've bought that both have the same problem. I know its not my amp because I plugged my fbv shorthboard mkii into it and the wah pedal on it works fine.

If someone could help me id greatly appreciate it.

Long time Litigator user, been enjoying exploring what the Prosecutor has to offer. Just got the Stadium last week so the new update was a treat.

Running in stereo through some big spread out cabs 🤌

I am wanting to use my Helix XL Stomp as a Midi Controller in Reaper to go between different helix native presets, as currently I'm having to click between presets when playing.

I am on Windows

I am connecting the Helix to my computer via USB.

Has anyone done the same/similar. If so could you please give some guidance.

Thanks.

Hello everyone. Some of you have probably already reached out from the official Line 6 Helix Facebook group, some may not. Or some of you might be familiar with my announcement a few months ago of open source code for a mobile app for the Helix Stadium. A few of you didn't know how to build the app to work on your mobile devices, who will be happy to know that I've decided to release an unofficial Helix Stadium mobile app for Android and iOS devices.

Admittedly, I held off because I thought L6 would have released one by now. And no shade at the L6 team, v1.4 is INCREDIBLE and lots more incredible stuff to come. But I've been using the mobile app for a few months and it's really useful. I've had other people at church and in communities asking for the app too, but without needing to be a dev to build and sideload it.

The app is still going through review for iOS on the Apple app store, Android is a little trickier as I require 12 testers for 2 weeks using it before I can submit for public release. The feedback I've had so far from people using the apps has been INCREDIBLE. I expected lots of bugs and issues, but people seem to be legitimately grateful and happy for a mobile app to edit via the Helix Stadium. It also works via USB-C as well as WiFi, so you can physically connect your Helix to your phone or tablet to edit (which is so good).

If you would like to get access to the mobile apps for Android and iOS now, I can add you to the tester lists and give you access. All I need is your device (some of you are both Android and iOS) and your email to send the invite. Ideally DM it so you're not publicly posting your email.

to anyone still using a line 6 floor how’s it holding up and why have you stayed loyal to it eg why haven’t you switched over to some fancy new gear

edit: og post made me sound pretentious just genuinely curious because i’m looking to maybe get one

Just want to give props to the team for this amp, it’s so incredible. I’ve been trying to dial in a particular crunchy/fuzzy sound on my stadium for quite a while using an OCD + plexi but could never quite get it 100% how I wanted. I’ve been using a plexi capture on my quad cortex for months instead. This absolutely blows it away and I haven’t turned my QC on since this model released.

Hot tip: put the new 424 pedal between the amp and the cab with mid gain to give it some extra muscle

So I'm torm between two cabinets, (other suggestions are welcome) but my main two are the Laney LFR 212 or the Fender FR 212. Just wanted to get any feedback of either of these two, if people have/had them, pros an cons sorts thing.

I'm a bass player who regularly switches between 4 and 5 strings, need something that can handle low notes well I play in C/B in my band. I'll be running a Helix through either of these (obviously seeing as I'm posting in this group)

So I have been playing with the OG Helix (LT in my case) combined with the Tonex One + recently.

I have long bemoaned the DSP limit in the OG Helix and when I tried the Stadium with agoura amps I ran into the same DSP ceiling.

But now ... I am pretty amazed how well this works! I have the best of both worlds, great effects and High Quality captured amps.

Since I can control it with midi or just run it via FX loop I essentially gained at least an Amps worth of extra DSP to play with.

I have FINALLY been able to build high quality Triple Amp presets that do just about Everything!

So this begs the question, what Helix combos have others tried that were just plain gold!?
