The One Cable Four Cable Method (Helix + Mesa Boogie FX Loop Hack)

This Helix + Mesa Boogie FX loop setup has changed everything about my live rig setup. What if you could run the Four Cable Method using just one cable? In this video, I simplify my Line 6 Helix rig by sending all four connections through a single Cat5 cable using a custom breakout box. No tone loss. No mess on stage. I’ll walk through: • The traditional 4 Cable Method • My custom One Cable setup • How I built the Cat5 breakout boxes • A full walkthrough of the HX Edit patch 🎁 Download the free Helix patch here: https://mattretz.com/patch 🕒 Chapters: 00:00 Intro 02:40 Traditional Setup Walkthrough 13:04 One Cable Setup Walkthrough 16:40 Box Wiring 20:51 Demo 21:55 HX Edit Patch Walkthrough 26:59 Outro 🎸 Gear used: • Line 6 Helix Floor • Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier • Custom Cat5 breakout boxes Big thanks to @RichieCastellano, @JasonSadites , and @SteveSterlacci for their inspiration and insights into creating the Helix patch.
