Boss Gt 1000 Or Line 6 Helix
To start it s the first ever guitar multi effects unit with 32 bit ad da 32 bit floating point processing and 96 khz sampling rate throughout.
Boss gt 1000 or line 6 helix. 600 the boss is a full featured processor that includes amp sims and loaded irs. I m looking in to getting a multi effects unit secondhand although i do have a budget. A feature of the gt 100 which is also in the gt 1000 that i miss in the helix is the polyphonic tuner. It does have the ability to load external impulse responses irs which is speaker cabinet emulation.
The helix lt is 1000. The ax8 and the helix are well established as having great tones. Could well be me though as everyone else seems to have. 1000 waiting for manual release pun intended.
50 videos play all mix boss gt 1000 vs line 6 helix vs fractal ax8 shoot out by glenn delaune youtube real amp and pedals vs helix gt1000 headrush atomic amplifire 6 duration. The ax8 is 1100. The gt 1000 is boss s most advanced amp effects processor to date built for no compromise audio performance. There are already a few things in my mind that would make me go with helix ax8 over the boss.
With a proprietary dsp and ports of effects from their flagship dd 500 md 500 and rv 500 pedals there s a lot going on under the hood. The line 6 is helix effects only. Boss gt1000 or line 6 helix lt or something else maybe. Tried helix loads and just can t get an amp sound i m happy with.
I ve ab d a helix and gt 1000 and for me the gt edges it ampwise. I own a gt 100 i don t use but to practice i am kind disappointed with what boss came up with gt 1000 really. The boss gt1000 is 1000. It s a great feature for gigs because in between songs you can simply strum the strings and within one or two seconds you visually see the tuning of all strings.
