But the new updated verbs on the Helix really are much much better. Indeed, Ive just sold my beloved Big Sky and Talisman, as a result of the HX purchase.
Nice one Ross (and Jack at Peach - I'm sure he used to work at Guitar Guitar, Epsom)

What was fun were the routing and set-up options. Whilst I kept to the above pedal order, I do keep my compressor on all the time but with this, there isn't a need to assign it to a pedal (you can do this with anything like a noise gate, generic reverb etc) and so that's on in the background. That was handy but then I was also able to assign my most used on/off fx/pedals to other, more convenient switches nearer my feet.
The Snapshots were also great where you can set-up different settings for the same pedal or possibly choose something like a different wah or Q for rhythm and lead or assign a boost, lead and delay to one switch for your lead sound and maybe a crunch and reverb for your rhythm sound. As I said, it's very intuitive.
My only slight grumble was I noticed some noise from the unit, even with pedals off and so I'm not sure if this was one of the earlier batch where this was a recognised issue but bottom-line, I'll probably be getting one in the future, but still keeping my board. Oh, and there's bass effects, too, which is handy as I have that to deal with as well.

I loved Jack's "Don't touch me..." comment when you touched his knee...very funny
