Helix 3.8 when?

[molul]

I'm reading in Line6 forums that Line6 Central was updated on October 22nd, so 3.8 must be really close.

They had to update it for POD Express Black support.

Then 3.8 might not be close again :_(

While waiting it's worth checking my MXR Micro Flanger (M152) settings

Gray Flanger​

Rate => 2 to 9.3
Width => 3.1

• Manual => 4.5
• Regen => 0 to 10
• Mix => 50%
• Level = +1dB

DOD FX65 would be an amazing addition.
No other modeller has it, to my knowledge.
It truly is a unique sounding chorus.

My first EVER pedal, and probably one of the pieces of gear I most regret selling.

Bought used in 95 or 96 when I was a teenager and just got my first electric. Around 1999 (?) I saved up for a RI Poly Chorus and sold the DOD because I though it sucked.

Not that the DOD sounded stunning or anything, it can be a bit bland even - but it's a decent chorus, and makes me nostalgic every time I think of it.

I know there's a nice clone by PastFX, but that's not the same thing.

Here is everything that I hope for in one place:

* Marshall JMP-1

* Fender Silverface Twin Reverb
(and/or Dual Showman)

* Tech21 SansAmp GT2

* Way Huge Swollen Pickle

* BOSS PH-2 Phaser
(and/or MXR Block Phase 100)

* DOD FX65 Chorus

Line 6 fulfilled my wish before with the Dark Dove Fuzz without me lobbying, so hopefully, it wasn't a fluke.

* Tech21 SansAmp GT-2

I thought we're past this...

If any guitar SansAmp, it shall be the OG unit.

It's unique, nasty, and a piece of music history.

I completely agree, my man.

I suspect that it would be extremely difficult for them to pull it off when you take into account all the various switches and combinations that it has.
I'm just trying to be reasonable with my requests (absolutely not implying that yours is unreasonable) so that they might perhaps come into fruition.

OG is THE sound (and we both know what we're talking about ). GT2 isn't really that.
That grit of the OG is just one of a kind. But... GT2 can get pretty close and do the job fairly decently.

I'll take the silver MIDI one, it was THE bass sound on many of the best sounding records in history. But any of them would be an awesome addition

Grit is the right word.

Just route a USB cable to the tombstone so his family and friends can keep updating his Helix for all eternity

Ends at 4.0

My train of thought-
Helix tombstone—>Kiss Coffin—>repurposed 4x12 cabinet coffins

After an exhausting exhumation, with shaking hands, he flipped the power switch. After a moment, the LCD flickered and lit up the dark room, casting shadows into previously unlit corners. The inspector read Fimware 666.6!
