At least, I learn and see what it does differently than what I do. At most, it gets a really good starting point that then needs just some final touches.
Definitely interested to hear your feedback! I don't even have my DSP.3 in the car yet - but I have it setup "on the bench" and plan to start messing with it very soon. The built-in RTA seemed kind of cool, I just haven't heard much about it (I think it's pretty new?). I'm brand new to Helix, so it's all new to me right now. :-)
Thanks for the feedback - I appreciate it!

i'd almost be willing to bet that it does a better job than most people can do manually, but in only 15 minutes

believe it or not, the Helix stuff has had a built in RTA and auto eq for a long time now. Its just that no one talks about it

Your mic doesnt go into the helix. It goes into your laptop lol. Only the laptop goes into the helix

Re: Helix DSP.3 help thread
That was definitely a moment of not thinking there...I really don't know how it would work with the mic plugged in without a computer, that doesn't even make sense to be able to run the autotune software.....Im going to go ahead and exit in embarrassment now so I can cancel my amazon order.....:daniel:
Also...why'd you have to quote me on that...now I can't get rid of that ;)
Still will do it next weekend now that I am out of time but have the right cables....

Here are the Helix DSP PC-Tool hotkeys that I am aware of - if anyone knows of any others, please chime in! This is with version 4.52a - older versions may not have all of these:
DSP PC Tool Hotkeys
Arrow Keys : Navigate around app interface
. : Link / un-link all available channels
, : Activate / de-activate link groups
+/- : Adjust slider fields fields quickly
1 - 8 : Mute/Un-mute channel (1=A, 2=B, 3=C ...)
F1 - F8 : Go to specific channel (F1=A, F2=B, F3=C ...)
D : Show/hide window frame in Windows (make window "borderless")
E : Go to "EQ" section of app
H : Go to "Highpass Filter" section of app
L : Go to "Lowpass Filter" section of app
P : Go to "Phase, Polarity & Time" section of app
Q : Quit app
R : Import EQ parameters exported from Room EQ Wizard (aka "REW")
S : Save preset
Re: Helix DSP.3 help thread
I'm about to install the DSP.3. Currently my TWK-88 is configured to use 2 channels for the sub and I have left and right going to the sub amp. Am I correct in thinking I can merge L+R in Helix to send sub signal from H to just the L channel on the amp, but then I'll need to increase the gain on the amp to compensate for only 1 rca connected instead of 2?
