FWIW I could hear the difference in the clips you posted (and I'm a cynical dick about this kind of stuff)
Not going to stop me trying an ax8 though.
I think that anyone that made their mind up about Helix pre-V2 should all give it another go
the Red Comp is still bugging me though, I'm sure it's buggy
Also I see that Helix's now sell for more than £200 than I paid for mine in January.

this is what happens when your currency goes down the shitter
if you want to compete with people living in grass huts you have to live in one yourself ...
Get to the gig and quickly throw a mark 4 clean into the chain. No sound check, just a line check and off we go. Now while I wasn't 100% happy, I can say it was pretty astonishing. Everything sounded great, the mix was even and the bass player who does the sound was smiling the whole way through. after I have done some tweaking I do think this could be a unit I will use a lot. Probably for everything. It made me play differently too. I felt I could go for things I wouldn't normally go for. Only thing I wasn't happy with was the solo boost and my Timmons style high gain but some tweaking will sort that. I can see me having some fun with this.
I play guitar and take photos of stuff. I also like beans on toast.
edit: don't bother answering that I just worked out the answer for myself lol. Dumbass
whilst 7db sounds like a lot, it means it's there when you need it (but normally I'll go about half way for a solo)
it also means you can swell up wee individual runs and pull them back down without it being as abrupt as a switch
I really hate going back to single button boosts. It's either too loud or too quite and really difficult to get just right .
