Line 6 Helix LT
Product information "Line 6 Helix LT"
With the Line6 Helix LT, the modelling specialist has an affordable version of the popular Helix modelling processor in its range. There is no need to compromise on sound quality and flexibility, as the presets of the individual Helix devices are compatible with each other. Thanks to 2 SHARC processors, the Helix LT has plenty of computing power under the bonnet - the sound quality and dynamic behaviour belong in the top class of modelling. Thanks to the very flexible input and output routing, existing equipment can be easily integrated into the signal path of the Helix LT.
A user-friendly editor programme is available for Mac and PC, with which even complex programming can be carried out very easily. The flexible assignment of the inputs and outputs of the "big" Helix version has also been retained in the LT. The sound quality corresponds to today's high standard for high-end guitar processors - powerful, dynamic sounds in high quality. The user interface of the Helix LT is exemplary, editing the sometimes complex effect, amp and speaker simulations is very intuitive and simple.
The Line6 Helix sound quality and flexibility is now also affordable for less well-heeled musicians!

Line 6. Few names are more associated with modelling and innovative sound design than the Californian soundsmith. The brand took off with the famous little red "bean", the Line 6 Pocket POD, in the early 2000s. Suddenly musicians in the recording studio could access a wide range of amp and effect sounds without having to set up complex rigs and mic them. "Modelling" suddenly entered the mainstream, appeared on almost every studio console and delivered sounds to home headphones. At session the POD series remains a top seller to this day, with each generation — POD 2.0, POD XT, POD HD500 — adding new features like improved sound, many more amp models and hundreds of effects. Current models like the Line 6 POD GO even offer the ability to use multiple rigs simultaneously, letting you play complex sounds with several amps and effects at once.
For professionals, Line 6 expanded its product range in 2015 with Helix, a kind of high-end POD offering endless possibilities to dial in the perfect sound. With professional routing options, displays on the footswitches showing the current setup and what was at the time the most realistic sound in LINE 6's history, the Helix can still be found on stages and in studios around the world. The Helix LT, a reduced model with fewer features, and the HX Stomp, a very compact, more affordable variant, later broadened the Californian's range with stripped-down options for smaller budgets. HX Effects completes the Helix family as a pure effects module without amp sounds and is extremely popular at session!
But at session you'll of course also find the other major pillar of Line 6's range alongside the multi-effect pedals: amplifiers.
Line 6 modelling didn't start in pedal form, but reached musicians first as a kind of all-in-one amp, the AxSYS 212, which contained a wide variety of classic amp sounds from clean to metal. From these roots later came classics like the Line 6 VETTA II, but also an absolute beginner top seller: the Spider! Today the Line 6 Spider V MkII is a true classic among beginner amplifiers and offers great sound for home, music school, rehearsal room or first stages for modest money, regardless of musical style.
Whether modelling amps for electric guitars, multi-effect pedals or now also wireless systems for instruments for cable-free use of your guitar on stage, Line 6 remains a standard for anyone seeking outstanding sound with maximum flexibility.

Ottimo prodotto, grande qualità.
Una compra 100% recomendable, fácil de manejar, un sonido brutal, sobre todo cuando metes los impulsos IR. Válida para directos, ensayos, grabaciones. Nada que envidiar a otros más caros.
Ich bin super zufrieden mit dem Helix. Er erfüllt genau die Anforderungen, welche ich hatte. Beim Update hatte ich Probleme, so dass ich das Gerät zurück schicken musste. Die Reparatur erfolgte schnell. Der Service war super und die Leute auch sehr freundlich.
Super Bedienung, besonders mit dem Editor, sehr flexibel, klasse Sounds! Ich bin u.a. in die 80er zurückgereist und konnte die alten Gitarrensounds, die ich damals mit den realen Geräten erzeugte, glaubhaft rekonstruieren! TOP-Gerät!
Es wird viel geschrieben über das Helix. Nach GT 100 und Headrush bin ich total zufrieden. Das Gerät klingt wie es soll, aber so ganz einfach ist es nicht. Bis ich die Sounds so hatte, wie ich wollte, musste ich schon dran rumschrauben. Mittlerweile nach 2 Wochen will ich nichts anderes mehr. Ob direkt in die PA, oder mit Amp, es fühlt sich gut an und von digital keine Spur. Hat man das Konzept verstanden, geht alles wie von selbst. Ganz in die Tiefe muss man nicht unbedingt; auch ohne Anleitung kommt man klar, hilfreich sind diverse YouTube Videos. Es britzelt; Lieferung durch Musik Produktiv prompt, wie gewohnt. Ab sofort kein Micro mehr, keine Schlepperei mehr. Der Preis schreckt anfangs ab, aber es lohnt sich! Absolute Kaufempfehlung!
Als Zimmerrocker erfüllt es alle meine Bedürfnisse. Sei es Audiointerface, oder Modellingamp, oder Effects. War mit meiner alten Line 6 Spider vom Sound einfach nie wirklich zufrieden, doch die Helix enttäuscht nicht!
This piece is everything You need on small stage or at Home studio. Don't believe that You have to buy triple its Price units to Sound good. Helix is quite enough.
Das Gerät kann eifach alles!! Es tönt super, bietet extrem viele Möglichkeiten und ist einfach in der Bedienung! Was will man mehr?
Ich war ca. 20 Jahre mit einem Digitech 2120 unterwegs. Das war jetzt mal nach langem Zögern eine gute Investition. Alles dran und drin was man braucht.Super einfache Bedienung. Einige der vorprogrammierten Sounds kann man sogar mit leichten Anpassungen verwenden.Für mich ein echter Quantensprung. Wer sich nicht generell vor Modeling scheut,unbedingt mal antesten.
