LINE 6 DISTILLS ITS HELIX SERIES INTO THE HELIX LT The Helix LT offers players a fully-armed battlestation of effects and models in one comprehensive fl oor unit. Engineered as a more budget-friendly alternative to Line 6’s Helix Floor and Helix Rack systems, but featuring the same dual-DSP power of those units. The Helix LT offers a full- color screen and access to hundreds of amps, cabs, effects and even virtual microphones. EVENMIDI TAKES CONTROL WITH THE H9 MIDI CONTROLLER The Eventide H9 is a great unit, and it deserves to be paired with an equally great piece of hardware. Enter: The EvenMidi H9 Controller. The H9 Controller opens the fl oodgates of the H9 and unlocks its true potential by giving you control over all its parameters as if it were a vastly expansive pedal unit. The H9 Controller also accepts expression in for hands-free operation. D’ANGELICO GUITARS GIVES BOB WEIR A SIGNATURE MODEL The Grateful Dead’s Bob Weir has been playing guitar for longer than many of us have been alive, and his new signature model is years in the making. The D’Angelico Bob Weir contains a variety of handy innovations, including push- pull potentiometers for coil tapping, a compact tremolo system and an all-new Stone fi nish that makes it look as sexy as it sounds.
