Line 6 Helix Stadium Pre-Launch Discussion

Has anyone tried the Hotone Colosseum yet? I head it has Agourento modeling.

Loads and plays NAMM files natively.

Yep, I assumed the new ones would be the Amp->Guitar, and the HX ones in "Legacy" or "HX".
To be honest, I wouldn't want s sub- or legacy folder for the HX amps that have been replaced by new Agoura modules. Just like DI mentioned, it will be a couple of the recent models they did and if I am still enjoying using them I don't want them out of "eyesight".
But maybe renaming the legacy ones to " HX ampname" , e.g. "HX Britt 2203" or " HX Revv Gen Red" would be a solution?

Well, I guess they will eventually replace all or almost all the HX amps with Agoura versions, so the legacy folder will be necessary.
 
If they're not clearly marked, I hope the Agoura amps are at least at the top so you have to scroll a bit to get to the old ones.

I have no idea If they are maked but, digital igloo said that the agoura amps have all the channels a one single block.

Therefore all mutlichannel/multi input Agoura amps won't have the ch/input naming at the end.

Actually, he wrote the exact opposite…

There are currently several Agoura amps that were too DSP intense to include all the channels in a single block.
 
IIRC, most Agoura amps have both channels in the same block, but some like Revv Gen had to be kept separate because they are too DSP intensive.

Yes that's what I recall also. Think there were two that couldn't be done in one model so far.
 
Looks like there's no mention of improved OD modeling with Agoura? Any updates on the OD/Dist. pedal modeling front?

I know I‘ve said this before… the SD-1 and TS models - at least to me - are the weak points of the current Helix firmware. I would definitely be delighted if they were completely overhauled. But Eric already stated that Helix Stadium 1.0 doesn‘t have new FX.

I do wonder if the increased dynamic range of the new hardware ends up measurably improving the Hx drives at all.

It’s just my own personal pet theory but IMO there is a dynamics component here. It’s probably bullshit but I just feel like my analog drives punch harder.
