With so many ways that we can shape our tone, some people find it a little intimidating to know where to start and the best approach. In this video, I take you through my proven approach to getting your Helix/HX Stomp tones perfect in 4 easy steps. I hope you find the video useful and enjoy the preset(s).

Very interesting topic, definitely worth a try. Thanks Jason!
Jason, always super helpful videos. One thing I have not seen a video on is the impact to Helix tones dependent on what system you are using. I created all my FOH patches with just the Helix and Headphones. Everything followed your basic preset measures (mic, cab, Compression at the end, etc.). It sounded amazing through my headphones and I was ready to go. When I actually used my presets through the P.A. system and IEMs, it sounded much less desirable, not horrible, but different than what I intended. I then setup my P.A. system in my garage and went through my 8 presets that I use for gigs and redesigned them. Mostly moving the mic placement or the mic itself, then EQ adjustments were all that was needed. The thing that really threw me is i needed more reverb for most of them as well. I think this would make a great video for gigging musicians.
The shelf EQ works a treat. I replaced all my low-hi cut EQ's for shelf and it really tightened up the sound as you say. Great advice. Tx.
Appreciate the tips! Every time i think I'm happy with my tone, i play a show and I'm not. This will help! I really, really need to get into shelf EQ's.
great stuff as always jason
yesterday I smashed out 3 strat takes through three different amps + pick ups and put a bass through another amp
combined with Superior drummer 3 and a few ace plug ins i am VERY impressed with how technology is allowing me to make mixes nearly on par with stuff like foo fighters, coldplay, muse etc…
Thanks for all the good tips and tricks Jason!
My pleasure 🙂
Thanks Jason for remaking some of your older Videos. I always pick something new up up or see something that I messed. Doing Def Leppard's "HESTERIA" right now ...coming out good so far w/out the "ROCKMAN X100". JUST USING LINE 6 HELIX plus all the Magic in the DAW! Thank you Again, George ( Lots of tweaking to create these tones )
My pleasure and glad they are helpful! Yeah those Hysteria album tones were quite something!
@@JasonSadites YUP !
Very good step by step guide for finding that initial baseline tone, spot on!
Thanks so much and really glad you enjoyed 🙂
For someone like me who seems to be frequency challenged, lol your explanation of how and why you're using the shelf eq answered a lot of questions for me... thanks🤘🤘
That is awesome, so happy it was helpful! Thanks for watching :-)

I always prefer to create my presets just like in real life. Noise gate, amp, cab, reverbs and EQ's at taste.
As you done here.
