As so many people have asked, here is a frank on honest discussion on the reasons for my choice, given how many Atomic Amplifire videos I have done. Don’t get me wrong! I love the AA, absolutely love it!! But the Helix works in a way that just fits with the way I work and the way my head works. It probably says more about me than any thing else.This really isn’t about one product being better than the next, this is all about one product working for me and the way that I need to work in my gigging work. If I could have kept both, I really would have. I have a keen eye on Atomic and would love to see what they come up with in the future. Both the Atomic Amplifire and the Line 6 Helix, sound awesome, the work really well and are very robust and fit in to the professional world. It is just that one fits me better....simple. But this is the internet, so things are never as simple as this, so hopefully this will put the record straight!EnjoyPeaceNeil
