Did you pre-order the Helix Stadium?

[jellodog]

I didn't pre-order. But I certainly thought about it!

I would have gone for the straight up, smaller Stadium.

Built-in expression pedals: No Bueno!

I've thought about it but the smart money is wait and see. Is Stadium on day one going to be night and day better than everything else? I'm not sure about that. Especially if they only have a dozen amps ported and the ones you want to use aren't on that list.

Now if they have way more amps completed and have new effects or overhauled/upgraded fidelity of current ones, that may be a different deal...

I can't recall, are they doing anything different with the cab engine?

bought a QC two weeks ago lolololol


ill probably wait 6-12 months

Can't justify it at the moment. Waiting and seeing whether it launches with stuff that pushes me over the VDI dongle hurdle. Then it'll be a question of do I replace both my Floors or just one.

 

[Jynx]

Nah. Didn't pre-order. Helix amps just sounds plastic to me so I would really want to check the new ones to see if there is a vast improvement.

I tried - can't add any choices any more - won't let me.

I definitely thought the non XL was going to be beating out the XL

I took a career break at the end of January. I'm pre-ordering the Stadium as soon as I've chosen my next job.

I already have an FM9 and a TMP, but I've long said if Line6 made a great product with full size interface and no expression pedal, I'd try it.

How do you like the TMP vs the FM9?

Had the regular Stadium in the cart with the promo code loaded teetering on the edge of completing the transaction. And then the code stopped working. So now I'll wait.

Wonder why the code stopped working maybe they were losing too much money because everyone was pre-ordering?

 

[paisleywookiee]

I did not, because I am waiting on a Stompy-like device.

Wow it did stop working.. that’s odd… too many sales of the stadium?

 

[Chocol8]

Did you pre-order a Helix Stadium and if so regular or XL? If not, why not?

I decided to wait because some of the things I am most interested in won't be ready day one anyway, and I might prefer a smaller footprint version.

 

[Dez]

I wasn’t aware of that but good to know.


Your post made me go look up the dimensions because I see a fair amount of people holding out for the stomp - and yeah, the Stadium is a 16 inch pedalboard. Not gonna work if you’re used to the stomp.

Probably my only regret with Helix is starting with the HXFX and not the stomp.

Anyway, I imagine L6 is SPRINTING to get a new version of the stomp out the door, though I’d bet my house people are going to lose their shit over the price.

(They’ll still buy it, because it’s probably awesome.)

I’ll bet it’s $999.

Was it a code that you received privately via mail or email?

 

[namathan_zirwir]

Can you add an option for no, and don’t want one?

 

[timbuck3]

I’ll bet it’s $999.

1200$

Email there was no expectation I could see

As far as I know, there was no public code that worked (July4 code doesn't work for example). The only ones that people seemed to be getting to work were private ones that could only be used once. If it was one that someone else wasn't going to use and posted it somewhere, it could have been used by someone else first. If it was one that he received privately and it stopped working, then that would mean that they disabled them and it was a mistake that they worked in the first place. I was just curious because it's not an item I would expect to be eligible for discounts. I was kind of wondering if they messed something up in allowing the coupons to work.

I haven’t used mine yet, but I did try it yesterday and it worked giving me 15% off of the stadium so I screenshot it. It went into guitar center and they matched it plus I had a bunch of credits from using my synchrony card in the past so I didn’t really technically use itso today I went and try it again and it’s not working
