About a year ago I bought a Helix floor, primarily as the centrepiece of my imagined future home recording setup for bass and guitar, but also as the front end for an frfr setup I’d thought about before realising I can’t play guitar for toffee! At the same time I sprung for the helix plugin. As I’m not playing live at the minute (may change sometime soon with the project I’ve just become involved with, but it’s early days) I’ve mostly been using a sonuus i2m as an audio interface into my MacBook and using the Helix plugin, the actual hardware helix hasn’t been turned on much, mostly as the recording setup has yet to find a permanent location in the house (I blame the kids and their ever growing Lego collection!) I know how flexible the hardware can be from playing around with the plugin, but do I really need something this flexible for live use when I’m pretty much a set and forget kind of guy when it comes to bass? Is it an extreme indulgence?

Ashdown use the same B&O ICE amp modules as Aguilar (and Darkglass... and GK... and Genz Benz... and Fender... and Traynor... and... and...), but they're more likely to look after you!

"Oh that thing. Bought it ages ago. Don't you remember me mentioning it? It's not really doing it for me. Might sell it..."

What’s the string spacing like at the bridge on this? -
This looks quite interesting for anyone interested in cab sims: https://shift-line.com/card.php?device=10086

Awesome!

@irvined colour me interested! What are you using them all for, if you don't mind me asking?

...and an omnicabsim mini or broughton lpf to deal with your fuzz problem. Could add higher feet to the nano and it MIGHT fit on the underside...

It would seem a lot of people don't know how to manage their inbox...

I’m a lifelong member of SBL... but this tactic boils my fosters...

The whole "uniqueness" tack is a bit rich. VFE started making the triumvirate quite a few years ago... and only recently stopped... and now ashdown have come out with something very similar, but 3 times the size... Yay for progress!

Analogue pedals will always have their place, same as valve amps. Some folks will never be swayed by all the digital shenanigans. Likewise many are unlikely to be swayed by anything in that video. Everything about the subject and contents of that “demo” is half baked at best...

"Seek and destroy" by Metallica. I didn't even know who Metallica were... Edit: actually the first tune I could play was the theme to top gun on my brother's guitar... VERY badly...

That feeling when you've been eyeing up a B-stock item on Thomann, eventually talk yourself into it, and it's gone...

Was just looking at this on Alan’s Instagram feed. I’ll say the same I said there. Perfection!

Hi Gareth - is there much "give" in the width of the bag? Looking for something to carry my helix in. It's a hair over 22" long. -
SOLD: Ashdown C110 ABM EVO 2 combo **£150**
Bigwan replied to basskit_case's topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
I have the first version of this, pre-EVO series. I'll never sell it. Best amp I've ever owned. Somebody get this bought! -
Nut width? -
Really going "The Distance" there @Sibob! Nom, nom, nom, lovely Cake! Haven't a clue which is which! Both sound great.
I'm trying to control my GAS..... trying!
