Helix Talk

Well you could if you just set up a Patreon/OnlyFans account beforehand!

xxxPickleEnthusiast69 sent $100 with the message: "Can you get Eric to wear a pickle costume?"

FTFY

FTFY

I know it’s a cactuar. Close enough.

 

[TheTrueZoltan!]

This is E.
E. failed to present new Firmware update.
E. must now wear pickle costume.

Is there a risk of "That's it? They're not announcing anything of interest? I watched this stupid thing for almost an hour and it was just a bunch of self-congratulatory marketing BS while YouTube goofballs ate Mexican food and drank margaritas?" Greater than zero.

 

[Lysander]

Yeah, watching those videos I saw several guitars that would easily sell.

That chrome-finish RGX looks siiiiiiiiiick.

Nobody needs to give a crap but I will be so disappointed if it's a nothing burger. Got a helix in 2015 so I am so ready for something worth buying that isn't a smaller unit, combo amp with some helix things in it or a special color limited version of the Helix. My wallet won't be disappointed though.

I'm just spit-balling here - and even allowing for the fact that its a L6 celebration- as people are talking, surely there will have to be some mention of an upcoming FW ... be it "moderate" 3.9 or "more major" 4.0 (?)

But then again ^this^ almost certainly isn't going to happen

"No firmware announcement" means "no immediately available firmware" and "no upcoming firmware".

Did D.I. say this somewhere about this event ? Apologies if I missed it ......

Saying it’s beer and wings
And a NAMM party which may be true , but in the past all keynotes From DI ended with what is coming in the next updates

No wings, sadly. Best wings I've ever had in my life are the salt and pepper wings from here.

Mentioned this before, but we're not announcing any new Helix/HX firmware at the 10th Anniversary Party. Too soon, I'm afraid—the timing just didn't work out.

I also don’t see the appeal in watching a livestream of a bunch of dudes just circlejerking the Helix without at least a tease for the future lol

I guess you'll just...

Oh well ..... so we really are at the 1 x FW update per year for Helix ..... no point tuning

 

[BenIfin]

What is difficult to "get" though is that D.I has been saying for quite a while that they have been flat out working on "stuff" and this, amongst other things, has impacted on Helix FW development.

This other "stuff" must be very "involved" / "significant" / "complex" ?????

 

[molul]

Who knows? Maybe they announce something Helix-related that isn't either firmware out hardware that we can't figure out now, but the right mindset now is not to expect anything big, or anything at all.
