Pretty nerdy video today. I go over a couple quick tips including adjusting the input impedance setting on your helix as well as some EQ moves I've adopted in helping me get a better and more mix ready, metal guitar tone, faster.
I also go over a handful of my favorite Ownhammer impulse responses. Those include:

This channel is really good. Thank you. You miiiiight have convinced me to keep my helix after watching you tone shape. It took me all day yesterday to find something even remotely as good as N-DSP, but after watching a few more videos I found some stuff.
Enjoy guys! Here is the timestamp:

Great video as always, dude!
In terms of IRs I did something similar to not get overwhelmed by the sheer amount of options everytime. I first got the HH1 collection und just used the provided mixes from the quick start folders of every cab with a particular speaker/combination. I then narrowed it down to the speaker/combinations I liked and kicked out the others for each cab. After that I narrowed it again by filtering out the mixes I liked best. It turns out I almost everytime gravitate towards the OH1 mixes. You could go ahead from there and try out the single mics used in the mixes you chose and see if they represent the tone you are looking for even more precisely, but for me the mixes always win over the single mics. I went through the same process for the HH2 collection as well and found the same results. My goto IRs are the OH 212 ZLSF M25+V30 OH1-05 and the OH 212 ZLSF V30 OH1-05. I just love this Zilla cab! :)
Cheers from Germany!
That’s a great way to do it. You almost need to be deliberate and sit down to find what you like. Do the legwork ahead of time otherwise you’ll be searching forever. Cheers man! Be well
I love the Ownhammer stuff too.....and the 121-00 files are also my favorite ones..Those seem to capture that bottom end chunk of playing a real 4x12 in the room...great sounds..
Right on
dude your videos are amazingly helpful. please keep doing them. aweswome work
Great tip about the Guitar Input impedance Nick. Keep up the good work! Stay safe
Thanks!
While I realize you build metal guitar tones, the impedance control in the guitar block is paramount for people using a "raw" (unprocessed) Piezo pickup. This makes this unit even more attractive to people who play Upright basses as well as instruments like acoustic guitars or violins with aftermarket/attached pickups.
That’s good information to know. Thank you for sharing!
Love your videos man!!!
When is possible, make some about snapshots...how to start to use, cause for live situation, looks really good action!
Cheers
Noted!
Another useful awesome vlog , so many thanks man , take care and be safe 😉🤟
Same to you!
@@NickHillMakesMusic Thanks man 🙏❤
Super awesome video man!
Thanks dude!
I assume lowering the impedance will come in handy if you are using really bright pickups like singlecoils in teles or strats. for a metal tone with a balanced pickup like the duncan solar all the way up seems the way to go.
Definitely something to explore!
Do you have any videos for your dual amp setup? Really love the crunch you get.
Look back a few videos my dude
@@NickHillMakesMusic awesome thanks man. Great stuff
Any chance u wanna sell ur main preset lol
Great Job Great tone Great vid!! :)
Thanks so much man! I appreciate the kind words
Awesome! Thanks! which output of the helix are you using that go in your interface and in stereo or not. Thanks! keep up!
Hey Nick, great work as always. I would like to ask when you record guitars and hard pan them, do you keep the room reverb on your patches?
Yes. Always hard pan for rhythm guitar and yes, I keep the room reverb on.
Hey dude. Have you shared this patch in any previous video? Sound super real and tasty tight. Would love to try it out myself.
And sick stuff in general btw! Thank you so much for theese great Helix video’s.
my advice. Listen with bass and drums in the mix, as it mask a lot of frequency in the high and in the lows. In my testing, Ownhammer are pretty heavy on low mid around 500-700hz, cut from 3-6db.
Always sound advice to listen to things in the context of a mix. I’d caution that your claims that OH IRs are heavy at 500-700 absolutely depends on the IR/cab and guitar/pickups. The EQ moves I make in Helix are almost all adopted from the moves I make in my DAW, in a mix. Cheers!
Nick are you using the evolution pack or is it the separate Mesa and Zilla packs. I forgot the question mark...
Bro! For the mesa, I’m using the Mesa stuff from the Cali duo pack and the Zilla from the huge Massively Multi-mic library
@@NickHillMakesMusic cool thx. I'll check these out
Love the Zilla! Cheers man. Stay safe
Tried almost every aftermarket IR there is....OWNHAMMER bar none is my favorite as well, esp thd Marsh 66
That's a brutal noise gate.
1M Ohm is one mega ohm, mega as in one million.
1k Ohm is one kilo ohm, kilo as in one thousand.
A kid in my class once asked me to explain impedance to him.
Outwardly I'm still smiling, inside I'm still dead.
Very dead
That input impedance hey!?
Honest oversight lol
Nick, have you ever tried to put the EP Booster (Kirky 0 Gain, Boost on, Bright off) between the amp and IR/CAB? For me, it cuts fizzes without using a lot of EQ.
Nope. I would never think to put a boost after the amp. Sounds like it’s filtering the same as the initial boost or an EQ. Interesting
@@NickHillMakesMusic Me neither but it works. Try It out.
But I like my EQs lol.
@@NickHillMakesMusic Sure. Your tone is great. As I am a Stomp user, i have few blocks, i need to explore possibilities... Lol. Btw, I think that the EP Booster give a "midrange" besides cutting the fizzes. Thanks,Man!
I’m all about whatever works for you
big M .. Mega Ohm :-)
Thanks dude!
Sadly I wish this was available for other interfaces. I am not a fan of using the front input on a rack unit.
Hey man how do i blend or transition from an ambient verse to a heavy chorus? It's always abrupt for me.
Why Mono button on the top of IR sample option is unclikable? I want to chose stereo. Or i can't?
Mega Ohm.
Mega thanks
I find ownhammer irs too dark sounding that i have to boost the presence and use an eq. I tried other ir brands and dont have to worry about that. the only thing i like about ownhammer is the clarity you can hear when playing.
I roll all IRs off as well as my tone sometimes down to 6k. If you look at speaker response charts for just about any speaker, there’s a steep high end roll of that starts at around 6k, sometimes as low as 5k. I’ve never felt OH is dark. They definitely have dark mixes and depending on the mic, can lean dark, but I’ve not had that issue. Especially with the sheer amount of mic, mic placement options, mixes etc, I’d have a hard time labeling OH as dark. Obviously, different setups come into play.
@@NickHillMakesMusic Thanks for the speaker info! i tried different guitars and cables. dont know what else could it be :/ i tried seacow cabs (which are free) and solved it. too bright and harsh that i had to now lower the presence on the amp and tone on the overdrive pedal. you should try them if you want and experiment, maybe no eq required.
Why is it that IRs are always defaulted to -18db?
Probably to avoid clipping as different companies shoot IRs in or at different volumes. Oddly enough, I still find IR blocks to be louder than that if stock cabs.
Ownhammer suck's
Almost as much as your grammar
@@NickHillMakesMusic .. Is that the best come back you got. That almost hurt
You forgot the question mark..
All kidding aside. I do get a bit annoyed with comments that don’t actually contribute anything useful. Do you have a preference for another brand’s IRs? If that’s the case, it’s cool. To simply comment with, “something sucks..” doesn’t add to any sort of discussion. What point were you looking to make? If it was just to be heard and seen. Cool. I get it. There are a lot of lonely trolls out there. I’d just prefer you didn’t do it here. Thanks man. Hope you have a good night.
What a terrible sound!
