Looper reverse effect

[u/terrorbethyname]

I haven't bought a helix yet I'm trying to research everything first so I have a full understand of if I'm going to need any additional pedals to the helix if it can't do everything I want when I rebuild my rig from 15+ effects down to as minimal as possible pedals/rack effects, so if I could get away with just the helix and 2 expansion exp pedals that'd be amazing.

Essentially I want to play through the looper reverse so my guitar will come through backwards like the boomerang phrase sampler can do. With the boomerang if you press direction before tapping record 2times to establish the length of the loop your guitar will play backwards simultaneously while youre playing your guitar but if you press the thru mute button you will only hear the reverse guitar. Is the Helix capable of doing this? or will I need my boomerang along with the Helix to accomplish this?

The helix looper has a reverse button for your loops, but you can also use the reverse delay if you want a simultaneous reverse/dry sound.

What about only reverse no dry

Yes just turn the mix to 100%, all the delays usually have a mix setting. You can also assign any controls (mix, feedback, ect) to a button or the expression pedal also to make it faster to change settings.

I'm pretty sure the reverse delay would be closer to what you're looking for, just mess around with the subdivisions/Millisecond settings

I have had delays with the reverse setting that didn't quite sound like my boomerang does. If you wouldn't mind checking out the link and letting me know if appreciate it.
