Dial the Line 6 Helix Rack sound in on your own rig
Rackmount version of the Helix HX modeling engine: the same 60+ amp models, 30+ cab models and 200+ effects as the Helix Floor, driven from a front-panel joystick and knobs rather than footswitches (the Helix Control pedalboard is sold separately). Voicings run from pristine Fender-style cleans through Vox and Marshall crunch to modern high-gain Mesa/Diezel models, with four assignable effects loops for dropping real pedals or a real preamp into the chain.
