    Line 6 Helix, anyone yet ??

    So any early buyers ? Want one for 4CM fx with my JVM410H. Also for rare fly gigs for a portable floor solution. I could do Fractal FX8, but then my fly rig would suffer; could do AX8 but fx and 4CM would suffer. Helix seems to have best features for me......but i never liked any Pod!!!

    Considering an FX8 for 4CM with my Marshall JVM410H. I currently use a GSP1101, while not bad, its not stunning either. While the FX are ok, i don't find the drive sounds to be very natural sounding. I do like to push the front end of my amps set for mild OD and then boost with drive. I was...
