For my Presets visit: https://johnnathancordy.gumroad.com/ Since maybe gigs will be a thing again soon, I was asked for my tips on how to get a modeler ready for a gig, so I figured I'd do that with the Helix. I've decided to make it possible to grab both my Helix/HX Stomp bundles (the expression bundle with freeze presets has always been separate) together for £5 - https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=CCTNL7P2XSQDC - I will then email you a link to both bundles! You can get my EXPRESSION patches in this bundle using this link - I will then send out the patches! https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=3PUJ7M8YPS4WU Try my patches (60-70+) for Helix or HX Stomp in this bundle for £3 using this link - I will then send out the patches! https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=45L8AZ4RYL3HW Try my patches for Pod GO for £3 using this link - I will then send out the patches! https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=2E7DSCRZW45JN https://www.patreon.com/johnnathancordy get my backing tracks here https://www.buymeacoffee.com/johnnathancordy - if you like what I do and only if you wanted, you could buy me a coffee! 00:00 Intro 2:50 What's the monitoring situation 4:05 Global EQ - save it for the Gig 4:55 Stomp/Snapshot mode 5:30 How many Tones do you need? 6:01 Outtake 6:55 Potential Preset Templates 7:01 How Chris Buck does it 7:50 How Rhett Shull does it 8:16 My layout 8:50 Start simple? 9:14 Use Channel Volume to balance levels 10:49 Outtake 11:41 Get familiar with Global EQ 13:33 Listen to preset at band volume 14:40 Practice making changes like you may on a gig 15:15 HUM 15:46 Thoughts on levels between snapshots 17:07 Tidy up your preset - Name Snaps and Multi Assigns 22:10 The Tidied Preset
