Bypassing a Block
If a footswitch is assigned to the block, press the switch.
Alternatively, select the block and press BYPASS to toggle the
block on and off.
Bypassed blocks appear semi-transparent and, if assigned to a footswitch, its LED
ring dims:
NOTE:Theswitch'sLEDringreects the color and bypass state of its most re-
cently selected block or item, even if other blocks assigned to the same switch
are enabled.
Choosing a Block's Model
To change an existing block’s model, select the block and turn the
joystick.
To create a new block, select an empty location on the Home >
Signal View screen and turn the joystick.
Selecting models within the same category can be very quick. However, as Helix LT
has hundreds of items to choose from, using this method to, say, change a mono dis-
tortion block (beginning of the list) into a stereo FX Loop block (end of the list) is very
slow. Instead, you should open the model list:
1. Press the joystick to open the model list:

Mostmodelcategoriesincludesubcategories.Forexample,eectscangenerally
be mono or stereo (stereo models display the icon). Amp+Cab and Amp mod-
els have Guitar and Bass subcategories. Cab models have single and dual sub-
categories.
Turn the joystick (or move it up and down) to select items in a list.
Press the joystick (or move it right) to view a category or subcategory’s con-
tents.
Move the joystick left to go back one column.
IMPORTANT! If you encounter items in the list that are grayed out or un-
available, this means the current path (1 or 2) cannot accommodate that
category, subcategory, or model. See "Dynamic DSP"
2. Using the joystick, select the desired category, subcategory,
and model.
NOTE: Amp+Cab and Cab > Dual blocks are special in that they repre-
sent two models within a single block. To change the amp model in an
Amp+Cab block, press <PAGE until the amp icon is white and turn the
joystick. To change the cab model, press PAGE> until the cab icon is
white and turn the joystick.
To change the rst cab model in a Cab > Dual block, press <PAGE until
the left cab icon is white and turn the joystick. To change the second
cab model, press PAGE> until the right cab icon is white and turn the
joystick.
3. To close the model list, select an item in the far right column
and press the joystick again (or press ).
