Wondering if anyone is using the MBC to tame some boomy palm-mutes or something.
I kinda want to have a mix-ready tone in the box. I find it very inspiring when I start jamming along to mixed tracks through headphones.
Normally, I add a hint of MBC to my guitar tracks while mixing to tame some boom from the palm-mutes without neutering the fullness of the single note stuff. But the MBC in the Helix seems to act weird. If I set the threshold to 0dB, I should be getting no compression, right? Yet, when I do so, I at least get gain reduction. Everything is quieter as soon as I engage the MBC even with the threshold set to 0 on all bands. So... how does it work, then?
Halp! Thank you
