Line 6 Helix Stadium Pre-Launch Discussion

[EOengineer]

Being able to custom map out by dragging and writing a "path". Then assigning to an expression pedal.
Cued up in the vid although it doesn't claim to be able to do that:

At 12:27 DI shifts over to the 2nd page of amp parameters menu and there is a “Z PrePost” parameter. I’m assuming that’s the setting for cab impedance curve?

The value might interpolate how much of the impedance coloration is applied at the input (preamp) versus the output (power amp/speaker)???

Who’s got a linky link for the modeler size comparisons?

The helix has that too no?

it does not. I found this earlier in the thread.

None of these are precluded by how we've built Agoura, although we might want to approach one or two in a different way. Plus, all Agoura amps have a new Z PrePost parameter that lets you choose the location of speaker impedance characteristics in the power amp, primarily due to negative feedback.

That album caused a LOT of very expensive gas!

From the parameter panel:

PrePost determines the location of speaker impedance characteristics in the power amp, primarily due to negative feedback. Higher values mean the effects of the interaction appear at the output of the power amp (Post) and lower values mean more of the effect is fed back to the input of the power amp (Pre). "Stock" represents the stock location, which changes from amp to amp.

Ah cool thanks. Actually though, someone had a png of every existing modeler and how they overlap, like Fractal, etc

EDIT

Actually just going off of the LT, I’m LOVING how tiny the regular Stadium is.

Always happy to serve

I'm getting that same cheapo stand DI linked to so my Stadium XL will live on my desk as well.

And it will be on the floor everywhere else.

I like the idea of elevating it, but I am so out of desk space. I may have to get a laptop stand like the one I use for my mini-keyboard

Yeah I recently put 2 monitors on my desk for work and I just don't have the room. Such a trivial problem but alas

Alas can't seem to order that from UK, or see it.

I may just have to check out the smaller Stadium when it comes out. The form factor is similar to the AX8, nearly perfect.

I had saved some pics when it was announced, no links though.

Reddit I think.

The other place.

I posted this before, but I think this is where I will end up. Helix Stadium XL, RV-5, Nemesis ADT, Golden, MercuryX, and my bb535 wah, all on my Pedaltrain XD24. Volume off to the side.

Each pedal in a loop. Each loop in a parallel path. Each parallel path with a noise-gate on it to kill the noise floor whenever the FX loop block isn't engaged. Let's me leave the returns wide open for trails coming from the pedals.

Ditto. I've already decided no scribble strips is a great tradeoff for that form factor - about perfect for my needs.

Paul playing on the Andertons video was absolute quality (Lee was no slouch either). The hype looks real, can't wait to get one.

For whatever's worth, those foldable laptop stands are a dime a dozen in AliExpress. The only thing you get from Amazon is faster shipping.

Work can wait, brb

Too much reverb washed out everything
