Helix Pro Collection - Guitar Presets

Description:

Built for Helix Floor and Helix Rack, this bundle consists of multiple rigs inspired by the most prominent tones in modern worship music. Each rig features unique pedals and amplifier blocks, allowing each guitarist to find a rig that fits their playing style and tonal preferences. All sounds were designed using the most common guitar configurations, but you may need to adjust settings including treble, bass, and gain depending on the pickups you have in your guitar.

Each rig is comprised of blocks that are completely stock in the Helix. An EQ block is placed after the cabinets in each rig to add life and body to the stock cabinets.  You can use the presets as they come, or replace the cabinet blocks with your favourite IR’s. Just be sure to deactivate the EQ block at the end of the signal chain!

 

Features:

  • 6 electric guitar rigs for Helix Floor or Helix Rack

  • 8 versatile scenes in all 6 rigs

  • Requires Helix version 3.7 or higher

    Each rig features:

  • Stereo amps and cabinets

  • An EQ block dedicated to adding life and realism to the stock cabinet blocks

  • Compression, pitch, drive, volume, modulation, delay, and reverb blocks

  • 8 scenes providing quick access to common worship tones

  • Pre-assigned stomp mode layouts

 

Rig 1 - Brit 30

“Brit 30” consists of two “AC” style amps pushed to their point of breakup. The tone is thick and midrangey while remaining clear and punchy. It is a great rig to use if you like amps on the slightly dirtier side.

  • Brit 30 audio demos were recorded using a Suhr JM pro with McNelly Bliss Humbuckers.

 

Rig 4 - US Clean

“US Clean” consists of two amps that are more neutral and act as excellent pedal platforms. Players will enjoy the clean headroom, as well as the reduced midrange breakup.

  • US Clean audio demos were recorded using a Fender Telecaster with Lollar Special T pickups.

Rig 2 - CCM

“CCM” is a versatile rig inspired by the sounds of some of the most well known CCM and worship artists today. It features the “Matchstick” and “US Double” amplifier blocks.

  • CCM audio demos were recorded using a Duesenberg Starplayer TV.

 

Rig 5 - Sunday Start

Sunday Start is a snapshot-based rig that uses the strength of the amplifier gain within both the “AC” and “Bassman” style amps of the Helix. The snapshots change the gain levels of the amps rather than simply adding gain with pedals. It is an excellent option for players who enjoy the chaotic sound of reverb pushing amps further into overdrive. If you prefer to use the Helix in both snapshot and stomp mode, “Sunday” (rig 6) is a great option and is included with this rig.

Rig 3 - Hills

This rig is inspired by some of the most well known pioneers of P&W tone. It is bright, clear, and pairs well with a variety of guitars.

  • Hills audio demos were recorded using a Duesenberg Starplayer TV.

 

Rig 6 - Sunday

This rig consists of the same amplifiers as “Sunday Start” (rig 5), but the snapshots do not change the gain of the amplifiers. Gain comes from activating the different overdrive blocks, and can therefore be used in a similar manner as the other presets in the Helix collection. It is tonally darker and warmer and sits great in a full band mix.
