It was just be you and the Fender guys in a chat room

I don't understand what I possibly could have done to be subjected to people like this.

ah ok, I have no idea what happens over there really

I don't enjoy that place because the website doesn't seem to work properly.
Like, it's really janky and I can't be bothered to deal with it.
Maybe I need to use a browser that doesn't block ads?
meh...

I think you have to pay to stop the ads a silver or gold member IIRC

Ok here is my wild ridiculous prediction of what line6 has done
I remember years ago around Covid when that whole mess with chips was happening and Apple decided to build there own chips in house Silicon , I remember a thread about Line6 / Yamaha wanting to build their own chips

I asked DI or rather took a guess about Line6 next thing years ago , I said it would be a collaboration with another company to which I got a yes
Reply but he said not necessarily a MI company

I didn’t really think about it until someone posted about latency the other day and line6 needing much more powerful chips to which the reply was IF a magic chip existed we could get way more audible improvements running models at 48KHZ not 96

So my crazy speculation Line6 has sourced its own chips for their products that are more powerful the the SHARCs Readily available
No shortage concerns
And cost effective allowing them to be much more aggressive in their pricing

It’s a stretch I know

WRONG!!!









I know nothing. I just figure I’ve got a 50% chance of being right.

OH I am sure I am wrong

 

[paisleywookiee]

OH I am sure I am wrong

Seriously though, that’s a cool idea.

Helix Waza

No magic chips, just beautiful hand-wired boutique multi-effects and amp modelling.

I deleted my FB, best move I ever made on the internet.

I'm just there because a) plenty of my real life musician mates are still there, b) my family is there. And there's one really nice group of german guitar noodlers sharing their noodlings over a new backing track posted once a week. And that pretty much was it. Even Twitter is better for discussions (and that should say quite something...).

Is a 3.9 coming or will we go directly to the 4.0?

That would be a big deal if Line 6 announced that, even without an actual product.

Especially when they lurk on forums and regurgitate the contents of a thread and monitise it for content.

I was enjoying the condescension from one of them in Chad’s group yesterday for pointing out his clickbait video title.
