Default Line6

Interesting subject - with the Line 6 Helix products a signal path can be created where frequencies can split into a second path. I have a couple of patches set up for bass instruments to run higher frequencies into a guitar amp and the lower into a bass amp. What’s being asked here is the opposite direction to use an octave effect. I’m not sure how good the octave effect is. But there’s plenty of eq effects to use if the sound isn’t that great. I’m not sure how good the tracking is.

I also have an Eventide H9 that has some elaborate pitch shifting algorithms. I forgot the technical reasons why, but pitch shifters and octave effects are quite different from each other despite getting a similar result when using a pitch shifter at the octave points.

I’ll play with this idea over the next week and reply back what I find.
