Line 6 POD Express Bass - Helix Quality Effects for Bass Guitar!?

[@MrSean5001]

Glad I scrolled to the comments. Insulting people's playing, appearance, behaviour, and speculating over who should arbitrarily lose their job really added to the experience. Stay classy folks.

[@CiciVonStrangelove]

Best comment 😂

[@sundaynightdrunk]

They're all buried by this point under thumbs-downs that no longer show their count.

[@m00plank90]

Amen. It’s a pedal demonstration, and it’s being demonstrated by bassists. If you’re looking for titillation or inhuman playing, go to OF or Charles berthoud For the vast majority of us real world folks, these guys are bloody great.

[@robraaiii]

I bought this Bass version from Amazon by mistake. I thought there was only the guitar pedal. So when it showed up I was bummed-out. But I plugged my guitars into it and I was LOVING the tones and sounds I was getting. I returned the Bass version for the guitar version and.. I mean… It’s ok, but I wish I just kept the Bass version. May have to repurchase it.

[@JVMC_ZR1]

That is low key 🗝️ hilarious 😂

[@gazzabel7040]

I want it primarily for bass but I also play a bit guitar…so it sound ideal for me

[@Smart-Alex]

Cici is a breath of fresh air from all the hard selling going about on channels today!

[@jacomans9078]

At first I was a little disappointed with the pedal, because a lot of it is distorted sounds which I don’t really have a use for, but changing the compression and delay and chorus I can get some cool sounds..have to keep experimenting, thanks for the review and she is a sweet kid, no one should have anything negative to say, they both are helping the bass community. Thank You!

[@ronaldjosephweech2444]

i love this girl. thank you for having her on.

[@CiciVonStrangelove]

Thank you so much ♥️

[@sundaynightdrunk]

​@@CiciVonStrangelove Always a treat to hear you play.

[@Joshg247]

Cici is so amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love how happy bass makes her.

[@mymodel6]

You're pathetic...

[@andrewpappas9311]

I've been hearing a lot about the bass version and it definitely sounds just as killer, love how versatile it is and I also loved how at 11:46 Cici sounds like she's doing her own version of Metallica's Damage Inc. intro. Cliff would be proud of that, I think

[@pclindholm]

I think the bass version is legit - I've turned the amp sim off and used it in front of a real amp for effects - sounds awesome, especially in stereo. Despite the plastic case, I think it could be a great way to get unusual sounds in a small space.

[@bassimprovjams3772]

I’m so happy to see Cici and Lee doing these videos together!! Always a treat!! Don’t stop with these two! I do miss Nathan though is Lee just chillin in socks ? Lol

[@johnmarlar4435]

What a great overview of this pedal!!! Thanks!!!

[@Fender1031]

I got one and I love it. Great practicing kit for headphone practice. I dont use a lot of pedals so Im confident that this is going to replace my board.

[@Riverking1]

THANK YOU for the Dr. Who theme! Anyone else catch that? Sounded awesome!

[@MichaelIrons-d5v]

What the sweet mother of CC was that guys, an awesome stomp box, loved the vid cc ultra brill in this vid.

[@MichaelIrons-d5v]

Thanks guys and gals.

[@chadward]

Nicely done. I’m just starting to experiment with mine, and this was very helpful. I do wish it had an XLR DI out so I could use it as my sole pedal on a silent stage gig, but that’s a quibble. Well done on playing too! She laid back, following the first rule of multi-effects - don’t outrun your pedal, it will get lost, though this one seems to track really well.

[@andrewpinner3181]

Thanks guys, nice review !

[@CynaYoingco-yn3wh]

I don’t really mess around with effects pedals. I think I might try this one since I can just dial in an effect and I don’t have to purchase numerous effect pedals. 11:23

[@txmbkrmusic-qy6uf]

I got one of these and love it. I’ve been using it for practice with headphones. Cool little box.

[@MtoTheBtoThe70s]

Excellent review. Love the chemistry. Keep it up!

[@paulsummerside]

Interesting. Tempting. Some nice sounds. Welcome back Line 6. Now if they can load that into a Bass amp Combo with decent wattage, they might have a winner.

[@Abhishektheunofficial]

This is the most badass bass pedal that is intelligently and intuitively made. This is insane

[@juanestevavalido1858]

Hola! Se puede tocar en directo con el pod sin amplificador conectado a la PA?

[@MisbehavingChild]

There's also cab sim, for a beginner this is fantastic

[@rogerf7265]

I went to get one but they were out of stock so I bought the Boss GT-1B instead and so far I really like it although I haven't made it past the Cool Blues preset.

[@JeepingNet]

The USB for recording (using Garage Band) makes this worth its price alone. I plan on buying it mainly for this reason instead of buying a Scarlette 2i2.

[@VeitLehmann]

I'm about to purchase a small multi-effect pedal for live gigs and sessions, so I was really interested in this one. But the big drawback of this thing is that it's simple but not easy. Why? 1. Because the traditional knobs don't reflect the current settings most of the time. Like the octaver that was active even though the top right knob was turned down in your demo. 2. Because you need 2 hands to adjust gain/bass/mid/treble 3. Because it's hard to do fine adjustments with only 1/5 knob turn for the whole range of each effect 4. Because without a display but with different contexts of operation, it just can't be intuitive It sounds nice, but I'm not sure if it sounds better than a Zoom B1 four. I guess it does because it's newer and Line 6 have loads of experience. But I think the upcoming Zoom MS-60B+ will be a much better option, at least for me.

[@jbjb9691]

Boss GT1B or L6 Ex bass?? That is the question..

[@benzakonium]

Sounds phat - Helix bass tones are great.

[@willb1157]

Can I suggest that you publish the audio chain ? I wasn’t really sure what I was listening to. I may have missed it in the video though. Thank you.

[@chriscuthbertson]

Mine is going after the HX Effects on my board to add Amp and Cab sim. I can take it off the board for smaller shows/practice etc.

[@rcb_matt]

Great video. I was tempted to buy this pedal to run in front of a Sansamp. My Sansamp is always on anyway. But… after hearing it I think I’ll pass. Lots of good sounds but being a country bassist, I think it’s overkill.

[@jamisonn123]

Love this channel, question: can you save a setting? If its on your board who is going to mive the knobs for you😂 i could make use of two or three sounds and would need to be able to stomp in and out.. will look for more videos on this!! Btw how a out the chorus and flange tone????❤

[@poninbassmasta667]

Ah! La amé toca increíble esa chica.

[@chrisworland7754]

Has anyone used this as a live pedal and if so how easy and or practical is it to switch between tones please? Thanks in advance 😊

[@jamescole7197]

Clever. They've just ripped the bass sounds and settings they know work out of the Helix and deposited them in a small and correctly-priced multi. Unlike the HX One which doesn't make sense when you could just spend that bit extra and get an HX Stomp - especially secondhand - this is much more of a win.

[@b2626t]

I watch this twice and I didn’t see them do the cab Sims, kind of a big thing to miss also that it has a looper, they should’ve used a number of bases to show how it sounds with single coils, etc.

[@shrondigerscat]

great vid,interesting (kinda) cheap pedal for what it gives you. Seems difficult to change settings on the spot between parts in a song if needed. Does POD express have the same effects as the POD Go have??? In other words is Pod express a compact version of POD Go (regarding bass effects/cabsims etc) ??

[@hartlee1160]

All hail Red Giant!!!

[@playtilithertz]

Great Review

[@fretlessman71]

Love mine, but would have preferred reverb to delay. Just sayin'.

[@antoniovera667]

For live shows that pedal effects with two switches are a pain in the a**

[@stoneysdead689]

If they're small they can be- as long as they're large enough I'm not hitting both buttons at once though- I'm good. I wish I could afford a Gigrig switching system- but man they're expensive. All switching systems are, I've yet to find an affordable one. You would think someone like Joyo would jump on that.

[@benzakonium]

Presets!

[@damasterkarej]

You can add 2 button footswitch.

[@Anjohl]

Use it for song tones, not switching within songs.

[@Firewalz]

I agree pedal layouts like this are a PITA to change live…..same issue I have with digital pedals like Source Audio

[@verwindung11]

Great review!

[@memor5514]

What does it sound like with a P bass?

[@jefmaslan1702]

Stellar! I primarily use my mustang with it that has PJ pickups. Frequently find myself on the P pickup instead of the J

[@wallyg3]

Can it do effects only, no amp or cab emulation?

[@javierneyra9673]

Could I know if this was used through speaker monitors? I have been wondering if monitors are good for playing bass. If so, which ones were used. Thank you

[@Sonny-lx7je]

CC is one hell of a good Bass player , some band needs to snap her up quickly

[@An_inquisitive_thinker]

With her being out of Dave Simpson's trio now she's free to sign up with anyone she wants, and being part of Anderson's gang I'm sure she won't stay on her musical own for too long.

[@zachjones1716]

Kinda interesting: I play the same type of stuff on bass as cici, I love tool and modern basses. And, despite slapping and playing some finger plucked guitar, I finger drag or skip on those 2 strings. Gonna try it her way later Update: I did not like it lol

[@An_inquisitive_thinker]

Ssssslapppp is like a bass! 🎸 🎧

[@Anjohl]

Sounds like a million bucks!

[@constantinosmavroyannis9409]

3:20 I PRAY you would finish that riff

[@RubyDimasStudio]

Not for me, A pedal without displey but all that effects,, hey Line 6 put a small screen, can be just for tell the preset number, or the tuner Note, for example.

[@Tommy_Krappweis]

This is mainly a comment as counterweight to the womanhating arsebrackets and people who are afraid of colored hair. Also loved the presentation and the playing ;-)

[@YOUTUBEOBWAYJACOBGASTON0800]

Line,pod 6 is,A doos pedal,❤😊🎉

[@BYLRPhil]

I’m not sure if this is cool or confusing… I think it’s cool but it will take some learning.

[@doctoribanez]

I have a pod go and id rather just have this for guitar because its so much easier. I find the pod go overwhelming. Just too much on there

[@pepmasters-999]

Grammar police daily citation: aitch, not haitch. That pedantry out of the way, that's a great looking pedal and sounds like it has some nice tones.

[@herpyderpy4366]

‘Haitch’ is a dialectal pronunciation, and so adheres to correct grammar for the relevant dialects.

[@Robil63]

@@herpyderpy4366 One of you is a diarrheactal, the other a diarectal.. (jus jokin' - I respect da grammar, he stated colloquially).

[@pepmasters-999]

Haitch is a common estuarine mistake. I grew up with a lot of people who spoke like that and it stems from a misconception of how you spell the letter H; it's not a pronunciation thing.

[@stoneysdead689]

@@pepmasters-999 If you don't stop being such a useless nerd, someone is going to beat you up- just for the fun of it. By the way- H is spelled "H" in the US- we're funny like that.

[@herpyderpy4366]

@@pepmasters-999 It's a common dialectal pronunciation found amongst a quarter of younger speakers in England (younger in this instance defined as born after 1982, so not *that* young), a majority of speakers in Ireland, and prominently found in Australia, as well as various other dialectal pockets in other countries. Its modern-incarnation is likely the result of h-insertion. Why it got inserted is neither here nor there-such is the nature of language: it shifts and changes according this idea or that, whether conscious or subconscious. After all, we call the letter ‘aitch’ and not ‘heta’ (you could go with other forms too, like ‘heth’, depending on where you consider the origin of the letter as it exists in modern use to be), but if we considered any change to the original form to be wrong, then ‘aitch’ is a mistake and ‘heta’ is correct. Language doesn't exist without shifting and swaying to the whims of speakers at any given moment-if not for uncountable ‘errors’, there would be no English (or any other modern language), just a single universal language (or a small collection of original languages if language arose more than once, but that's linguistically unknowable; either way though, nothing even close to modern language would exist). So the short of it is that ‘haitch’ is wrong according to the prestige dialect, because it isn't a part said dialect, but is correct according to the dialects that do incorporate it, because dialects adhere to their own grammar and features, and if a feature is used by a collective of speakers, then it is correct according to that dialect by the simple linguistic definition thereof.

Why not reviewing the Hx One for bass? This one is too limited

[@daniellavanderos]

they really look like two kids in a candy store

Where is Nathan?? Get him Back. Lee & Nathan are deadly combo for All About the BASS

[@JohnnieDelong]

I feel the same, Lee should be doing the playing..

[@michaelsnydermusic]

They’ve addressed this. He’s on tour and will be back. CiCi is a hell of a player and belongs on Andertons just as much in my opinion.

[@nbocch]

First time seeing one?

[@georgeoffenberger1262]

Ok i bought one…. My first impression upon taking out of the box i was like “wow what a cheap POS”. You would think considering the “name” and price it would have a better build quality. All the crap people talk about Behringer…. This POD is far inferior as far build quality. I bought it for its sound obvi and its for a home studio… i def would NOT gig with it. Dont think it would hold up.

[@Robil63]

Would help more if you stop waving your hand epileptically in front of the unit.

Was hoping by the thumbnail that you canned Lee. Too bad
