HX edit errored out on me cos I didnt choose all the drivers. Still installed just fine. Just a heads up in case you do that too. I uncheck the stuff I'm not gonna use.

You're not imagining it. It sounds f'n great. Line 6 really nailed it this time.
I wish @James Freeman could tell us if he was a beta tester or consultant for the new model... but if he were, I doubt he's allowed to say.

@Digital Igloo Please give your team a pat on the back for their work on this update. The new models are superb, and the bugfixes to things we mentioned like the Vitriol Crunch channel are very appreciated too. The Helix is such a polished unit.

Yeah it's not good to say. over the other place when people found out I was a beta tester for them they were private texting me all the time but I never gave them anything. It's still frustrating to have people pestering you all the time
My system got bricked for a while due to my MacBook going to sleep while the update was happening, so I lost most of the time I had to play guitar to trying to bring it back to life….
Finally got it going and had a few minutes to play with the 2203 and the l6 Voltage. I didn’t know what I would think about the 2203 as I considered myself more of a plexi guy. With the master at 5 on the 2203, I think I changed my mind. The 2203 is awesome. Slight crunch up to quite a lot of gain it’s awesome. May replace the plexi bright for me.
Voltage needs some more time, I thought I got it very close to the 2203 but it also has some extra tricks up its sleeve with that boost circuit.

I’m going to have to spend some time with the Originals. I like what I hear so far.

@Digital Igloo do you have any examples of how you used the Feedbacker with vocals?

The Vitriol Clean is a sleeper. Still plenty of grit when you crank the preamp gain.

I'd give it a go, but my neighbor was already banging on the ceiling a couple nights ago so I better not

I intended on just playing for a half hour or so to quickly check out the new stuff, and I ended up playing for hours. The 2203 is great, but also everything is. Really great job, Line 6! Thank you!

Can anyone explain what the boost stuff does in Oblivion? Does it have an HPF?
