I'm pretty sure he's gonna delete that one. Ahem.

Yeah, no need to dogpile on him. I just wasn't about to let the whole "nobody should buy Helix Stadium because you can do the same thing with a $200 Valeton or $30 IK plugin" nonsense fly.

Yeah I get tired of that shit. People are free to buy what they want, but bagging on the companies actually doing the work is bullshit.

I’m not gay or anything…

I know right? Just the other day I heard some folks bagging on NUX and Hotone! I was like whaaaat?!?!

Just no respect for the hard work it takes to ship a product.

The t-shirt could list all the products @timbuck3 has considered buying but didn't, but I don't think he wears XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXL.

Lol. I almost feel like Tim buying a Hellx Stadium would be a bigger endorsement of the product than someone like John Mayer buying one. I won’t hold my breath though.

Do you seriously think those companies developed their own modeling? I mean, maybe. But I’m cynical.

Yes, I do. I honestly don’t know why anyone would think that had to be the case. If they copied it, the products would sound like the ones supposedly copied. They don’t from anything I’ve heard. Not even close.

There’s a lot more developers there than here. You could probably hire a dozen or more for the cost of one elsewhere.

I’m pretty sure we’d see some lawsuits if it involved filched code. I’m not certain why these assumptions keep being made.

I don’t have any reason to vehemently disagree with you, except to say that there’s already precedent for code theft. But perhaps we’ll never know.

Let’s hope that’s behind us!

I was hoping somebody would. Classic movie.

Doesn’t really change things though.


I kid! I kid!

This is bad business. If you make fun of him, he won’t buy a Stadium…then again, if you don’t make fun of him, he also won’t buy Stadium. Hmmmm. Never mind, carry on.

I would say it’s more of a running inside joke than it is any actual personal digs at Tim.

It's been ages since the last time I watched it. I vowed to my father I would never watch it again. Damn... I can still smell that newspaper.



Btw, it took like 25 years for me to learn that some songs from the movie came from a Robert Smith, Reeves Gabrels and Jason Cooper side project (COGASM: COoper, GAbrels, SMith). How cool is that.

They should send him a free
POD XT vintage shirt to represent

Small please or can as I am a skinny guy

I would agree with this. I mean when I connect with something I am the 1st one to rave on and on about it but I don’t make yt vids

Probably licensed the code from someone else. It'd kinda be hilarious to me if most of these cheap modellers were Fractal amp sim licensing deals.

Some do - notably, Nux.

Finding audio developers is not that difficult. Another thing is if you can hire many really good ones.
