HELIX FLOOR
FLAGSHIP AMP & EFFECTS PROCESSOR

Helix® Floor leverages dual-SHARC® processing and HX® Modeling to deliver the authentic sound and feel of analog amps and effects, and its player-friendly interface sets the standard for ease of use. Features include a large color LCD, capacitive-touch footswitches, customizable scribble strips, extensive analog and digital I/O, and an onboard expression pedal.

 

 

 

FEATURES

 

AUTHENTIC TONE

The dual-SHARC audio engine in Helix products accurately recreates the sonic characteristics and dynamic playing response of classic and modern amplifiers and effects.

 

HX CABS/IMPULSE RESPONSES

Helix cabinet models offer a choice of 12 microphone types that may be positioned at various distances from the speaker cone and cabinet for additional flexibility. Third-party impulse responses may also be loaded.

 
 

BEHAVIORAL MODELING

HX Modeling technology captures the unique behavior of analog effects devices by measuring their individual components, resulting in authentic recreations of even notoriously difficult-to-model effects such as germanium fuzz and “bucket-brigade” analog delay pedals.

 

COMPONENT MODELING

Each stage of an amp’s circuitry is measured and the results matched to the original during the modeling process, ensuring realistic sound and an authentic playing experience.

 
 

INTERACTION

Selecting and engaging effects is straightforward—and to change effect settings you simply adjust the parameters displayed on the OLED screen using the three corresponding knobs.

 

FOUR STEREO SIGNAL PATHS

Helix processors feature four stereo signal paths, enabling the creation of sophisticated presets with numerous effect and other blocks. The signal paths may also be configured independently, making it possible to process up to four instruments simultaneously, and presets using only two paths can support true Preset Spillover.

 
 

SNAPSHOTS

Snapshots enable you to create up to eight variations within a single preset and seamlessly transition between them, without the audio dropouts that occur when switching between presets.

 

COMMAND CENTER

Helix processors can serve as the command center for any rig. They can send up to six MIDI commands at preset or snapshot recall, and dedicated relays enable external amp switching. External expression pedals and footswitches may also be connected for additional control.

 
 

SCRIBBLE STRIPS

Thirteen of the Helix Floor footswitches have associated scribble strips that display their current assignments. The footswitch LED color and scribble strip label may even be customized. If more than one block or parameter is assigned to a single footswitch, the scribble strip may read “MULTIPLE (X)," where X is the number of assignments.

 

CAPACITIVE-TOUCH FOOTSWITCHES

Simply touch a footswitch to instantly jump to any block and quickly adjust a parameter or assign controllers. Color-coded LED rings convey footswitch assignments and status at-a-glance.

 
 

EXPRESSION PEDAL

The built-in expression pedal controls volume, wah, or any parameter or combination of parameters. Hands-free Pedal Edit mode lets you edit any block parameter using your feet.

 

HX EDIT

The free HX Edit software features the same intuitive user interface as Helix processors. Create complex signal chains with ease, adjust settings and parameters using dedicated sliders, customize footswitch labels, and much more.

 
 

VARIAX CONTROL

Helix processors support 2-way Variax® guitar integration when the two are connected using the Variax Digital Interface (VDI). Toggle between two instrument models with a footswitch, control Helix amp and effects parameters using the controls on your Variax guitar, change string tunings when switching presets or snapshots, and much more.

 

POWERCAB

The Powercab® family comprises the Powercab 112, Powercab 112 Plus, and Powercab 212 Plus active guitar speaker systems—all of which provide an authentic “amp-in-the-room” playing experience when paired with Helix amp and effects processors. Powercab Plus integration with Helix via L6 LINK™ is especially powerful, transmitting multiple audio signals and command data over a single cable.

HELIX NATIVE

The Helix Native plugin brings the power of Helix to any digital audio workstation. Preset compatibility across the Helix family allows presets created in the studio using Helix Native to be transferred to Helix hardware processors for live performance—and vice versa. Registered Helix and HX product owners receive a substantial discount on Helix Native.
