Did you pre-order the Helix Stadium?

It seems I hear over and over about the fractal and it’s interface so we all know that if the fractal had a helix touchscreen or something similar on it, it would be just game over

thats not true for all cases, for my needs a TS is absolutely useless.

The perfect guitar tone doesn't exist. The perfect amp modeler doesn't exist. Each will always have their pros and cons.

Stop worrying about buyer's regret or the "fear of missing out" and start enjoying whatever you have now. I'm being sincere.

P.S: Currently, for live and high-gain duties, I'm primarily using the Cali IV Lead model from the Helix (through a 2/50/2 and a Zilla cab). It was released in 2016 (it's almost 10 years old!). It sounds glorious. It's not the limiting factor.

Lol
Your oven sounds amazing nteresting

It’s the oven equivalent of a single channel valve amp. No screen, doesn’t even have a clock. Gets hot. The gas marks are French which differ from the U.K.

I don’t think there is ‘game over’ for any of the devices at this end of the market - they’ll all do amazing things but they will ultimately think differently. It’s about choosing what makes sense for what you do and how you like to interact with it so it enhances your playing enjoyment rather than gets in the way.

For me, I’m liking the look of stadium interface far more than fractal *that I can see*. I could choose to wait of course but if I’m choosing now, I’m choosing between something I’ve seen adequately demonstrated via videos and it makes sense to me…. I can do that or I can wait for another company promising to do better. Which I’m sure they will but you’re choosing between something real now or a maybe in the future.
