    Live Sound: Helix Native vs Helix Rack outboard?

    Hi team, TL;DR: anybody using Helix Native in a live performance setting? Within that, anybody done an A/B of the sound vs the Helix outboard units? Longer context: I occasionally play in a pretty tech-forward ampless setup where me and 2x guitarists all go wirelessly into Helix Rack units...

    Behringer / Midas Stage Boxes and Digital Mixers Discussion (SD8, SD16, M32C, XR18, X32 Rack, etc.)

    I have had Behringer mixers arrive new in box configured that way, just so you know you’re not crazy/alone. no idea about the logic, and drove me nuts first time it happened.

    Super easy open source video edit software?

    Your Windows 10 instance should come pre-loaded with Video Editor, the successor to Windows Movie Maker. If you really just need to splice two clips together it should work fine with no additional software needed. Otherwise, another +1 for da Vinci resolve.

    Bass-Only IEM from a DI

    I am fortunate enough to have a full IEM system, custom molds, etc, plus a dedicated monitor engineer for my “main” gig. however I occasionally “sub” (play at philanthropic or community fundraising events) where the setup can be a brutal mix of amateur and loud. In this setting I do exactly...

    IEM system for rehearsal and small gigs : what do we need?

    what’s your signal flow to be wireless from the P16? Stereo line back from the P16 to the rack with the transmitter? Or something different?

    External pedals with digital modeler

    How do these perceptions accumulate for you, or not? Ie, “several” milliseconds for each of: -into a wireless instrument transmitter (then out) -into a modeler (then out) -into analog pedals (then out) -into a digital mixer (then out) -into a wireless iem transmitter (then out) And on that last...

    Backbeat Club - For Those Who Silently Rumble

    I got a shipping notification email with a USPS tracking number today around 3pET. Made my down payment in Nov ‘21, paid the best in Jan ‘22. Really like my G1, and really feel like (at least on paper) all the things that made it not perfect have been addressed in the G2.

    Behringer / Midas Stage Boxes and Digital Mixers Discussion (SD8, SD16, M32C, XR18, X32 Rack, etc.)

    I own each of XR18, X32R, and M32C. I love them all, especially the M32C. It is my primary unit, doing a variant of what you describe using Dante. I do this instead of the Midas/Behringer stage boxes primarily because 1) cross-platform, 2) PoE (rather than having to power the stage boxes), 3)...

    x32 - use X32 computer across network in isolated room?

    You could use Dante for this if I’m understanding the ask. Put an X-Dante card in the X32, run a single Ethernet cable to your computer, and run Dante virtual sound card on the computer. set the card to route the channels/taps you want and away you go, mixing and monitoring on your computer

    Recording Multiple Cameras

    I don’t think that BM device does what the OP wants (I have one too for presenting). It’s more like a switcher that presents a single stream to the host, and you can switch among 4 inputs using the buttons on the device. For that use case the atem devices are great and industry-standard. I...

    Question - Helix Stomp vs Stomp XL

    Does the music you’re recording require you to switch between more than 3 different sounds manually intra-song? If so then the XL, or some kind of midi control, will be valuable/necessary. If no, then regular stomp should be fine. There’s no audio performance difference between the two units...

    Line 6 HX Stomp

    connect regular midi cable from MC3 out to HXS in. I believe HXS will accept by default on all channels but double check your settings. connect MC3 to computer using supplies USB-B cable (the square-end one) download and run excellent Morningstar software. it should detect and connect to your...

    How are you using/configuring Line6 HX Stomp for live use?

    I have found the plan stomp with no accessories to be useful live in settings where it mostly replaces “always on” / “utility” pedals, with 2-3 switchable effects. My basic preset would look something like below (** denotes blocks bypassed by foot switches), depending on the needs of the set /...

    HX Stomp as an IEM Rig routing?

    No the other posters are correct, you can use a single send/return block in slot 8. I’m not sure why I split it like that. You also (obviously) lose the ability to have an effects loop with the stomp in this method.

    HX Stomp as an IEM Rig routing?

    You will use a send block for block 7 as your output to FOH or amp and the return block as block 8 to take in the mix from the board. Use the mix parameter on the return block to control the balance of monitor mix vs your signal you hear in the headphone output. You will lose the main out as it...

    Powering HX Stomp XL

    One note for the group - curious if anyone else has had this experience: I power an Hx stomp xl with a Cioks and a doubler and it works great UNTIL I need to upgrade. Then it craps out. I solved the issue by adding another doubler (to make a tripler?) and the issue went away. I DO NOT have the...

    Line 6 HX Stomp

    in the end I have both - different tools with different strengths / weaknesses each better suited for different contexts. IMO - the stomp is the *ultimate* travel/fly rig. The sound/size ratio is better than anything else on the market. In the size of basically two pedals I can send gated...

    New project with people in the Fractal ecosystem, this is my toe-dip. Also my first time building on a temple audio board. So far I like both a lot.

    Check out this thread if you haven’t already, generally and on noble -> WPP210 specifically. one thing pointed out in the thread is there’s no volume on the cabs and no volume on the noble. All of the pres I use have a controllable level out of the xlr. I also note by a quick glance at the WJ...
