Re: Anybody downsized from a Helix to a Stomp?

I would never, as all my presets tend to use both chips (even my bass ones, as I run a parallel clean low-passed path to preserve bottom end).

Re: Xvive U4 Wireless In-Ear System Review

I have the Nux guitar wireless too (perhaps not that model, I think I have the B2) and I find the battery drains while I'm not using it. But if you charge it the day of the gig its all good. Bro! Where you bin? Hahah someone noticed!! TBH now I'm in two bands and run Helix most of my gear cravings ...

Re: If you could download skills...

Either John Petrucci or Guthrie Govan for sure.

They can play basically anything, know theory very well, great songwriters, they've got it all IMO.

Good IRs will make even the Mooer version of the Helix sound good - that might be a good start? https://www.rockshop.co.nz/shop/mooer-g ... on-fx.html
