Not boomer old? šŸ˜‚

You should be able to read the scribble strips e.g. on a Helix Floor easily while standing up, then. Some complain about sunlight problems, but in general I'd say the letters are legit readable, and the Stadium is probably similar (if not better).

I can't. It's not all about age.

Fortunately, they made the base Stadium, which has neither digital labels (the pedant in me notes that we do not 'scribble' on them) nor a built in expression pedal, thereby checking two of my preference boxes. So I have that on order.

Yup, it's like the LT to the Floor but without the expression pedal. Definitely the one I'd go for (at some point in the future).

All good. So even though the entire DSP and all 8 blocks can be used for effects only, and amps and cabs can be fully ignored, just knowing that HX Stomp is also a modeler affects your buying decision. We call this an "intangible benefit" of HX Effects, and it's totally legit. Thanks!

Out of curiosity, would the ability to completely hide amps, cabs, and IRs from the model list move the needle at all?

I would love a 'hide' feature for things I don't use in every modeler, multi-fx, and similar device that I use. It would massively streamline things and make the units easier to use.

I am not a fan of screens on the floor. Let the interface run on an iPad on a stand. Then the 50-60 somethings can get an iPad, the 40 somethings can get an iPad mini, and the old geezers can get an iPad Pro, or if that doesnā€™t work, a 75ā€ TV they* can screen mirror to.


* with the help of their eye rolling grand kids of course.

I get your point, but I also don't want the device dependent upon a second device that I neither own nor want. I just don't use the interface while it's on the floor, other than a rare knob turn here and there. The color coded switches cover me for a playing session.

It would also cause massive confusion for those who inadvertently hide something like, I dunnoā€”bass ampsā€”and then run to YouTube to state categorically that Helix Stadium has no bass amps.

Yeah, I get it. Maybe make it a little bit difficult?

Oh, well. I will chalk that up to one of the many nice things in life we can't have because of the kinds of people who would do exactly what you describe.

Just move everything you actually use into Favourites. The HX Effects has it, and I believe the rest of the Helix family does as well.
 
Why can't you put more than 2 amps on the same line in the Stadium, even though there are more DSPs available? What's preventing it?

@Digital Igloo can you give us a bit of a timeframe on when the Nexus ports will be released? Specifically for the VDI and L6 Link?

I'll be honest. We probably would've fast tracked Expand D10 if so many Variax and PC+ users weren't so vitriolic about having to pay extra for something that straight loses us money (even though the alternative was no VDI or L6 LINK compatibility at all). We're always reprioritizing things based on public demand and public sentiment.

Don't have a timeline at this point; sorry. We should hopefully know more around NAMM.
 
Is there any news on the release date for the Proxy? That will truly be a game-changer for the Stadium. Is it true that it will be possible to "auto-capture" multiple blocks from my own preset? Like having several blocks in one.

First time I hear this. Sounds good tho.

With a friend and another pedalboard, we captured five blocks into one, so you have everything in a single block, saving you DSP and space. It's not common practice, but it can be done better.

But where did you hear about that feature being added to Stadium?
