Make Your Line 6 Helix Layout More Versatile - https://youtu.be/AS-i1Egqzyc
This started off as a video for using the Line 6 Helix with a real amp (Revv D20) using the 4 cable method. But then I got creative and added some amp sims (Plexi and Matchstick/Matchless) to the preset for maximum tonal versatility. Pair that with the 4 cable method where the effects are placed either before or after the preamp section as desired, this is looking to be the ultimate 'kitchen sink' preset.
But is this set up as elegant as it sounds or overly complicated? In this video, we go through this preset I created and talk about its benefits and limitations.
