Line 6 Helix Stadium Pre-Launch Discussion

[paisleywookiee]

Man, why didn’t line 6 make the screen size the same as a Palm Pilot from 2003? It would have been so much safer!

The QC hasn’t had issues with screen breaks, the Stadium will be fine.

I don't think that's the issue. IMO the possible issue is that a 'wet' touchscreen often behaves quirky and stops responding reliably to interactions. Even a few drops of sweat can do that.

Are you buying a Stadium?

Sweaty fingers haven’t stopped anyone from using the QC.

These topics get brought up but never meaningfully materialize for anyone using them.

Y’all gross fuckers with sweaty fingertips need to calm DOWN

 

[Digital Igloo]

This kind of baseless paranoia is what killed OG Helix having a touchscreen. So it's all y'all's fault.

It’s always a few of the Fractal guys bringing it up. Gets old. They would rather use their gameboy resolution screens

Or they could’ve made it the size of the Thomas blue amp amp X and then put a little lid over it

Just don't put your Tim Master Pro on the side of a Hot Tub and everything should probably be ok.

The last page confuses me. I don't understand why we're in a tizzy @yek 's comment. My phone/watch can be a pain in the ass to use if my hands are wet. Why is that being label some baseless paranoia? This is an honest to goodness question.

I can’t wait till we can name focus zone
Schewety Balls is going on the 5153

It’s clearly not an issue for the tons of touring artists that use them. Seems like more of an issue for the guys that play in their bedroom, and play for 50 people in a club..a few times a year?

Sir, I don’t play in my bedroom, I play in my GUITAR ROOM

Back on topic, that touchscreen on the Stadium looks super impressive. The responsiveness looks incredible from the videos.

Aha, coming from the person that adds a poo emoji to my posts by default.

You are on a mission, buddy, not me.

Do a search and try to find any post from me dissing other brands. You won't find them because I don't do that.
My preference for Fractal Audio products doesn't make me hate other brands.
