Start by recreating the tones in your head with the new HX modeling engine - the new amps, cabs, mics and effects will feel familiar to anyone who has ever spent time in the studio getting the best guitar sounds from both vintage and modern gear.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHave a pile of oddball pedals that you rely on for your personal sounds? No problem. Take advantage of the most comprehensive I\/O and routing capabilities ever built into a multi-effect and easily integrate them into the Helix Rack environment. Once connected, create custom setups that make your external pedals feel like they’re all under the hood. Whether you spend your time in the studio or on the stage, Helix Rack is the next-generation guitar processor you’ve been waiting for.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eReal Tone that feels and sounds like your analog gear\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eWhen it comes down to authentic sound and feel, Helix Rack represents a giant leap forward for guitar technology. The dual-DSP engine provides massive power to accurately recreate the dynamic feel of tube amplifiers, not just their sonic fingerprint. Each stage of an amp’s circuit has been measured and matched back to the original, so that each model reacts and interacts just like the real thing. This level of dynamic circuit detail extends into areas like power supply ripple, individual tube sag, and control over B+ voltages. Once these elements are captured, you get classic bloom and gooey compression on some amps, and a powerful gut punch on others. Helix Rack also lets you load custom impulse responses, allowing you to personalize your rig setup.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSmart Interaction - So intuitive you already know how to use it\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eMassive power traditionally comes with a steep learning curve, but Helix Rack challenges that way of thinking. The large 6.2\" 800x480-pixel LCD display all but eliminates menu diving and provides the same level of control you would expect from an external editor. When it comes to creating tones, Helix Rack is as fast as you are.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSpeed up your editing with Helix Control\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eHelix Rack can be controlled by almost any MIDI-capable device, but adding Helix Control gives you the same innovative capabilities found in the floor based Helix, and this means that - for the very first time - you won’t have to stop playing to tweak a knob. With Pedal Edit Mode, you can edit any parameter you like using your foot: simply select the block that you want to tweak, and its parameters spill out onto the Helix Control footswitches. Select a parameter, and tweak the value using one of three optional expression pedals.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHelix Rack has four stereo paths per preset, allowing you to design complex routing scenarios for each patch. Creating variations on wet and dry routing schemes is as easy as loading a template or tweaking the joystick, and using the onboard effects models in conjunction with the four freely-assignable effects loops means that the tonal possibilities are truly huge.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eControl of your entire rig - Integrate and control internal and external devices\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eAs the most advanced guitar processor ever made, Helix Rack can become the nerve center for your entire guitar rig. Easily integrate traditional effects pedals and other hardware into your environment, creating a seamless hybrid rig that incorporates the best of what software and hardware have to offer.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHelix Rack has extremely flexible audio routing thanks to its dynamically allocated DSP. Use the four effects loops to connect four separate pedal chains, or split them up and use them as freely-assignable inputs and outputs. In combination with four stereo paths, this means that you can process multiple instruments at once, send wet and dry signals to different places, and create large integrated systems that take advantage of both digital and analog I\/O at the same time.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhen you need to incorporate external devices via MIDI, Helix Rack offers more flexibility than any multi-effect ever. In addition to powerful real time MIDI control, Helix Rack can send up to six separate commands at patch recall that aren’t assigned to a connected footswitch, which means you can change a patch on a synth, start a sequencer, and turn up a fader on an external mixer, all with one patch recall. Add AES\/EBU digital I\/O, Wordclock sync, support for three expression pedals, CV\/Expression out, and external amp switching, and Helix Rack can be the command center for any size rig.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHelix 3.0 Firmware Update\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe Helix 3.0 firmware update for Helix and HX hardware devices and the 3.0 software update for the Helix Native plug-in include 20 new models—most notably five world-class polyphonic pitch-shifting effects—along with several significant performance enhancements.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eNew Models:\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e• US Princess, based on* the Fender Princeton Reverb amp\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Das Benzin Lead, based on* the Lead channel of the Diezel VH4 amp \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Poly Pitch, a Line 6 original\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Poly Wham, a Line 6 original\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Poly Detune, Line 6 original\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Poly Sustain, a Line 6 original\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Poly Capo, Line 6 original, works equally well on guitar and bass\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• 12 String, a Line 6 original 12-string guitar emulation\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Horizon Drive, based on* the Horizon Devices Precision Drive pedal\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Swedish Chainsaw, based on* the BOSS HM-2 Heavy Metal Distortion \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Pocket Fuzz, inspired by the Jordan Boss Tone fuzz\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Bighorn Fuzz, based on* the 1973 Electro-Harmonix “ram's head” Big Muff\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Ballistic Fuzz, based on* the Euthymia ICBM fuzz\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Horizon Gate, based on* the Horizon Devices Precision Drive's gate\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Acoustic Sim, based on* the BOSS AC-2 Acoustic Simulator\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Glitch Delay, an open-ended delay effect with endless creative options\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Shuffling Looper, an inspiring idea generator that intelligently slices and reconfigures your loops\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Stereo Imager, Line 6 original\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• 1x10 US Princess, based on* the Fender Princeton Reverb cab \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• 1x12 US Princess, based on* a Fender Princeton Reverb cab with an Alnico Blue speaker\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePerformance Enhancements:\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e• A Favorites model list to store your custom amp and effect edits, including footswitch assignments \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• You can now save default settings for every amp, cab, or effect block.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Your custom settings appear every time you load the block.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAdditionally, Helix Floor, Rack, and LT users now have the option to disable Path 2 for true preset spillover.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMeanwhile, the HX Stomp pedal’s simultaneous block count has increased from six to eight and now includes a Command Center menu for controlling other devices via MIDI or software via QWERTY keystrokes.
