Thinking about upgrading from my Boss MS-3 and getting a Line 6 Helix. I'd put the Synergy Syn-2 in the first loop, and some Marshall reissue pedals (Bluesbreaker, Drivemaster, Shredmaster, Guv'nor) in the remaining loops. Maybe it will also replace my Boss BF-3 Flanger/MXR EVH Flanger (I swap back and forth from time to time) and/or my Whammy DT.

Anyone do this (at least Helix + Synergy Syn-2)? Does it ruin the feel too much? Any tips/tricks to set up the Helix when I first get it so that it pairs well with my setup?

Did you need to perform any routing? When I installed Black Winters in my 2077 I did have to widen tabs and depth, I why rather avoid it if I could (in the middle of a move and some of my tools have already gone).

I have a spare set of PAFs which I like a lot in my S7420, so I have some options.
nope no routing needed. Lundgren made a custom black heaven set specifically for the rg2027xl. It just drops right in. Its also the reason i had to go the custom route with seymour duncan, as they need to do that for the triangle baseplate. Ill shoot you a dm once i get that set, otherwise ill make a post in the gear for sale and link the reverb listing when the time comes.

Out there, somewhere
Bodies are at the painter for nitro sparklies, basically Charvel-style San Dimas and DeMartini body shapes. Reverse headstock birdseye necks.

I can't seem to find another pedal to fit the space left on my board that the Kernom Ridge can't replicate, and has MIDI built in. Don't really want to buy a switcher for one pedal. I could maybe switch to an MC6 Pro and try using the relay switching on it to control a pedal with external control, but I'd have to reconfigured my board in a weird way. Kinda debating a Friedman IR-X, but I don't know if I'd use it much. I'm not using the amp modeling in my HX Stomp and would prefer to use the amp's sound and let the pedals enhance it...
I always forget the Stomp has a loop. I could literally put any pedal I want in there and MIDI switch it on and off, which I think is enough for me. Seriously considering picking up the Science Amps Mother Preamp, then.
