Hi everyone, would any other contact cleaner do the same job?
Sometimes cleaning residue will attract dust faster making your switches sticky again, and probably faster than the 1st time. I would suggest using a contact cleaner in an aerosol can. It's designed for this kind of an application. Part of the problem you have is dirty contacts on the switches which just getting wet wont do much, you want the cleaning solution plus some air movement to create a mechanical cleaning action on the switch contacts. Another thing you could try is a air duster in a can with this cleaning solution, or use your current cleaning solution and a vacuum. Then when you need more cleaner get contact cleaner instead for this kind of application.
Odd they used mini switches under a normal style foot switch cap, instead of just using full size switches.
Have the same issue, any solution ?
awesome comparison thank you
esto que tu haces no funciona!!! hay que poner los interruptores nuevos!!! cambiarlos por otros nuevos desoldando y soldando.
Dude, 2 years later Im still struggling with this.....I follow your instruction exactly and it doesn't work for me..
Which part are you struggling with?
Its a good model !
Very cool Alex, I have yet to do any of my own NAM captures but would like to get into it a bit, have the poly Beebo which could play nano captures, you used any hardware pedals to play NAM stuff live away from computers so far?
Side effects are generally mild and may include perception of the amp being changing by amp placement, time of month, alignment of stars, color of guitar and blood caffeine levels. Other mild symptoms may include headache, anal leakage, bleeding and death. If you experience an (________) lasting more than 4 hours please ...............
So its a shit y problem🤘🏻
i just need my helix to have exp1 to volume. but it controsl exp 1 and 2 at eh same time. why?
It cant control both at the same time AFAIK? You can switch between 1 and 2 with the toe switch
Excellent video, been playing for decades never knew really how to use gates and compressor thanks
Nice video, I like these technical analyses. I'm in the process of feeding my pedal board directly into the power amp, to get rid of the additional gain staging noise from the preamp and effects block. Btw the main reason for the difference between fx return and power amp in, is that the fx return still passes thru the katana fx block whereas the power amp in doesnt. Even with all effects turned off, I imagine it will still affect the signal to some degree
Have you encountered Line 6 helix USB B issue not detecting when plug in into the computer?
I had a Floor unit that had so much trouble with USB connection when i first got it. L6 ended up attempting repair but eventually replaced the unit
use liquid DeoxIT
Thanks again for sharing your video of the process. I left it open and used a dropper to flood with deoxit 4 times over the course of a day. I didn't bother with masking tape. It helped a bit on my helix, but the worst switch (mode) is still pretty flaky. I'll probably try soldering in new switches if I can find the right ones.
Hello, thank you for the help, this help me with future irs to make in my cuvave cube baby pedal(have too much high frequencys in tone of preamps of the pedal)
Could you also replace the buttons?
Hi! Can you tell me, what is the height of switch? 4.3 mm or 5 ? I want to replace mine. Thank you!
What Is the Liquid You use for clean the switchs? Isopropyl Alcohol?
Deoxit which is a brand of electronic contact cleaner.
@SMAAAASHTV Hi, thanks for the reply! What deoxit product? Could you be more specific?
@@bobgentiliIn the video he's using G5 at 5:40. I have personally used D5 for cleaning circuit boards, pots and switches without any issue. Seems like CAIG Labs, the maker of DeoxIt has a list of uses for each, but I cannot link to them or I risk my comment being removed by youtube.
Was hoping to see a desolder/replacement.. ya know, an actual repair. 😅
Hey bro what speakers are you using they sound huge. Like dayum bro. Are u using and IR or stock cabs? I’m trying to get my setup to sound better. I think my speakers are the weak spot. I have cali audio lp-8’s and a pod go. Which uses the same modeling as the helix.
It’s not that it’s difficult, but there’s so much, this is my 3rd day with the helix, I don’t feel lost but still looking things up.
Hello bro, One question, why do we also record our guitar? Wouldn't it be enough to use the original signal and obtain the equalization curve from it?
Many thanks this is a very useful video, did the repair this morning, given 3 foot switches were bouncing and unusable My Helix dates back to 2016 and well out of warranty, so not an awful lot to lose. I took the time to tape up switch regions as well and used a electrical contact cleaner spray from Amazon. Hints =---= 1). Take a photo before disassembly. 2). Loosen all screws 2 turns before going back taking them out. 3). When putting the screws back in, do not tighten before all screws are in place. 4). Be careful around those two units on either side of the switches, they are the LED's. This cured the problem for the time being..... Look forward to playing every day for the next 8 years.
I didn’t understand what is your amp and if you go into the amp through input in
Ok, but what most of us are interested is how does it sound through the speaker

Same issue here. Latest firmware, other midi devices send expression pedal CC just fine, tried multiple DAWs, cables, etc. Plugged in other expression pedals into Midi Captain, same issue. It's definitely the Midi Captain itself. I'm going to email support.
I have the same issue...they say they fixed in firmware 3.5 but nah...the did not
Have you try with the original paint audio pedal ?
how can i pass for EXP1 to EXP2 on the display?
Step on the toe switch
Is that 46 & 2 by Tool, the bass riff ur playing at the beginning? Lol
Se puede desactivar los amp? Y trabajar solo con IR?
I've got the same Issue with 2 switches... I am a little afraid to open this thing up. But your Video helped me alot. I maybe should give it a try soon. :)
inB4 "but muh quad cortex!"
I’ve been gigging and cranking mine since 2015. Recently I decided to buy a small interface for running a guitar and mic into Logic Pro X and realized the Helix also does that job with no problem. When you factor in everything the Helix does, it’s by far the most inexpensive musical product I’ve ever bought.
How’s it battery powered?
Underneath the board is a Boxking BK05 powering the Stomp and DMC.micro. There is a USB power pack powering the Relay G10, making the board completely battery powered fro up to 4 hours.
Sir, I’m using DMC3 and I wonder is there any pacific midi cable to use cuz I can only preset up and down. I cannot access more into my Hx stomp
No, just a MIDI cable. Refer to the manuals for specifics on how to use the DMC with the Stomp. The micro was a bit tricky but once i got it sorted it was sent and forget.
Thank you Very clear info
Hi Alex, this video is super helpful! My question is, have you revisited this technique in tone captures off of isolated guitar tracks and discovered anything new that works better?
Alex, if you can create me an EQ-matched, high quality IR of Metallica’s “Through the Never” guitar tone I’ll love you forever❤. The first 6 or 7 sec of the song is only James’ guitar, which is this tone I’m after buddy! I know it shouldn’t take you more than 20 min to knock it out, but you’re the master at this! Thanks again bro, think of it as a Christmas present for me ;)
lol, i actually did this with that exact song a while ago. check the metallica black album folder here: bit.ly/aktonematch
@@alex-kenivelis it called BAIR.wav ??
Thank you for explaining this man 🤘🏻
Hi, I have a helix floor with this problem: it loses the input signal, the signal goes in fits and starts, the symbol on the input display flashes red, then it starts working again for a while, sometimes it works for hours and then repeats the problem. Lately it also crashes, meaning the large display turns off and all the small displays start flashing. What could it be? I was thinking about the power supply, thanks for any response
okay, sounds like two separate issues. Input issue-- try different cables. Try those cables in something other than Helix to rule out the cables. Crashing issue - those can usually be remedied by reinstalling the current firmware and following the instructions to the T: Make a backup, reflash (reinstall) firmware, factory reset, reload backup, power cycle off/on again to finally rebuild presets. Hope these help. Feel free to get back to me if not.
@@alex-kenivel Thanks for the reply, so the pedalboard, as I wrote, works very well and has been updated, everything is fine but every now and then it crashes, everything flashes like a Christmas tree, then after an hour of turning it off and on again it starts playing again. I don't want there to be capacitor problems on the power supply board
@@Moreno280161 I still recommend reflashing the current firmware even if it is up to date, most problems like this tend to go away after a firmware flash with the proper steps. I'm almost certain it isn't a hardware issue or the problems would be more consistent.
When the isolated guitar sample or the original song is stereo, don't you need to make the stereo guitar mono first? is it ok to work with the stereo signal for tone matching?
It can be okay to use a stereo source, I find it better to work with a single source to get more accurate results.
Very nice video bro! but... why the resolution is so badddd...?
I'm more of an audio guy. Still trying to figure all of this video stuff out.
Sir can i ask for your preset for wah
Of course. I know it's the Fassel with the range extended and the mix lowered to about 77%. I'll get back to you with the exact deets when I can.
Okay, so Fassel wah, FC Low @ 394Hz, FC High @ 2kHz, and Mix varies -- for direct tones its set at 77% most of the time, 64% in front of my MT15, real low at like 33% if after a Fuzz. Level 0.0 dB
Alex cab you send me your preset please, i wanted to maximize my rig as well
@workingclassguitarist8538 ahh man, i dont have this iteration of this preset anymore. I have some similar ones that share the same amp model and snapshot staging but nothing else is the same -- In fact I don't really use this physical setup anymore either. I've since build myself a larger board with a larger MIDI controller and a few more pedals
Here's a similar preset. Same amp, uses a different IR, fuzz. Pay attention to output panning instructions: line6.com/customtone/tone/6198153/
Which are the dual footswitches that you use?
On this board I've got the Disaster Area DCM.micro MIDI controller and the Mosky Dual Footswitch
Damn this is conflusing. Like a coding class...
Yeh, it can be for sure. You can get as complicated as you want but also as simple as you want. Feel free to ask questions.
I paid £150 for a mk1 100watt Combo , its now my main gigging amp, the JVM 100 stays home
