If we’re overrun by robots they’re going to skin me alive as an example of how NOT to talk to them

There's a bunch of other stuff that won't be ready on day one either, like Expand D10, user-customizable Focus zones, user-recordable preset clips, Pedal Edit Mode, preset spillover, etc.

With a few months between Stadium XL and non-XL Stadium releases, will some of these features perhaps land in a fw update right around non-XL model's release?

Are we talking about "these are on our roadmap but nobody is working on them yet" vs "these features are well underway but won't be 100% complete/tested by the time the XL releases"?

Out of these, the one I'm most interested in would be the user customizable Focus zones. That seems like such a powerful feature, basically "presets within a block".

The first Stadium editor might be more of a preset/IR/Showcase track librarian to start

I wondered about this, but it makes sense from a priority perspective when you’ve got the touch screen and ease of editing on unit.

Looks like the Stadium is intended to control the entire stadium.

Why are we controlling drum trigger inputs again?

These are like that misc port on the Nintendo 64 where we dreamed it was a docking station for some yet-to-be-released super gaming system or something.

I’m kinda back in that spot where, given the excruciating amount of thought L6 puts into seemingly every detail of Helix, I have to assume these are here VERY deliberately and we will likely get an answer in a future update.

I don’t think L6 has said much about it either.

Now the drummer can control your presents and the entire stage light show with a brutal blast beat solo, all going through the control center.

There’s stuff in the Stomp that I haven’t even thought to look at. I say let them cook.

I do agree and I think I’d like an example of using it.

@JiveTurkey Line6 didn't say anything about guitar synth noises, the processing power is there though.
Maybe one day in 2035 when we're all too old (or dead) to play.

God I can't wait.

If that is true then guitarist could essentially do the the same step up for a solo have the lights change Colors and activate the fog machines triggers

I prefer energetic spontaneous roll and roll over any scripted performance.
Not talking about stadium performances of course.
