There are ways. But ultimately as long as you don't use caustic soda, dipping will be no different to any other method.

What style of music do you play? Lots of chorus sounds like it would be something very specific like shoegaze, post punk or alt rock.

Did you treat it to a 'Wigan Salad' (Pie, Chips, Peas and Gravy) while you were there..?

The Helix will allow the control of each parameter in a Preset to be attached to one of three expression pedals, or one of 11 footswitches, or any MIDI CC between 4 and 127. It also allows the value of parameters to change with each Snapshot in the Preset, which is how Line6 do glitch-less sound changes. And it is possible to control parameter values using the volume and tone controls of a Line6 Variax guitar. It won't allow parameter control to be based on the sound of the instrument which I think is what @MrDinsdale is saying. For me this wouldn't be of much use because I don't play in any sort of controlled way and having the sound change due to how hard or soft I'm playing would be a complete non-starter. I'm sure it sounds great on the factory sounds that use it, but I wouldn't be able to play accurately enough to control it. What would be useful to me would be if the triggering of the noise gate and filters could be controlled by MIDI note information instead of the incoming audio signal. Can you do this with the GT1000? The other thing I would find useful would be the ability to have time-based effects synchronised to MIDI clock for periods longer than 1 bar, particularly phasers and flangers

Yup, I've found the octaver poor, but luckily the mix is adjustable and can add just a tad.

Yup, mine did from BassDirect. To check the polarity (my pedal board runs on battery) I needed to photograph it as the writing is very small and faint.

I think I need wireless as we have some very inexperienced sound volunteers and I do tend to take a walk around the hall during sound check just to help (and yes clearly I wouldn't have the monitors in if listening to FOH), but want to be able to pop them back in rapidly! RE 5GHz, something like: https://www.thomann.co.uk/mipro_mi_58rt_58_ghz.htm or any other recommendations (this is probably the top of the budget!). EDIT - just saw these that seem cheap enough not to worry if they don't work: https://www.thomann.co.uk/swiff_audio_wx520_monitor_wireless_system.htm

I took mine to Wigan once.

Back in 2011 one of the guitar blogs at the time was asking for photos for a page a month calendar with a free calendar for those whose photos were chosen. I got up very early one August morning and went into Nottingham city centre, when it was just light but hardly anyone was about, to take these two (amongst many others) which were selected:

For me it's the note choices and combinations more than anything. Although a decent amount of chorus also helps.

We’re not spring chickens Daryl. We only do 1 per week now and limit it to 36 gigs per year.

Good luck with trying to accurately glue together 4 pieces of wood with no straight edges on the non-glue surfaces. I wouldn't want to do that.

Personally if you are only a few feet away from a given transmitter point and unlikely to be moving around much, I'd be looking at being wired. If it must be wireless, I'd be going 5Ghz rather than 2.4; 2.4 can be congested and you have quite a few devices.

That's weird. The way you had worded your previous post suggested that you didn't like the body shape.
