Line 6 Helix Stadium Pre-Launch Discussion

Affinity Photo 2, which is similar to Adobe Photoshop. No AI, just manually put in the work to stitch and mask this shit together.

The new Affinity app is free (at least for the time being) and well worth a download.

Thank you! Getting it now.

A possible solution to this might be to allow setting the impedance on a per-effect basis and then saving that as a favorite for recall later. I’d prefer the stock behavior match the stock gear, personally.

Yeah, I would want any such change to be switchable. I think adding the option does make sense, but adding it as an option is key. That's the fun of digital rather than choosing a mod as the only option (unless it's clearly labeled as a model of a modded pedal). And while the stock behavior might be undesirable to some or even most players, that doesn't mean everyone.

Exactly, that's why what I'm suggesting is the change of the default value.

Oh, I wish I was Japanese. But only on December 16th 2025. Then back to Spanish.

Anyway, I doubt that. Or at least I would find it quite surprising if Line6 released the second device just one month after the first.

I don't expect it sooner than mid February. But I'd love to be wrong.

Who knows , it was odd they had Stadium XL showing the correct November 19th date
If they were going to attempt to get both into stores and have 1.2 with showcase and new amps ready before the Christmas break they are going to be hella busy

Without a doubt, DI & the L6 devs are in the shit right now.

It's all going to drop this Friday

But I still want videos before then.

This is Albert, our Siberian. He started Snoopy Joy dancing when I told him it’ll be this Friday.

This is Albert when I said ‘but….. I’ve only seen one guy say that’

And this was him when I said that the one guy I saw who gave this information wasn’t DI

Fractal sending me discount emails right now

I'm assuming it's just a reminder of their Halloween sale?

Seems to be a continuation into Holiday sale

That's what I thought. Every manufacturer - especially plugin makers - are announcing Black November or Early Black Friday sales right now.

Cliff good.

Fractal is the only unit I’ve never tried…

 

[JiveTurkey]

If you've flip-flopped around every modeler/profiler under the sun and haven't tried Fractal; you are missing out.

I was originally going to get an Axe III when I was entertaining the stadium. I really want a unit that I can use in front of an amp (Fender Twin), but can also be used standalone for home use. Axe III seemed perfect but I got enticed by the Stadium for “ease of use”.

FM9 might be more your speed if you want to have a pedalboard type setup. The III can do this but unless you get a FC you are a little limited.

It might be more cost effective to go FM9 and yit still very much can excel as a studio option

I just sold my Axe III to fund a Stadium.

Me too - but will be there on their next gen product - last time I waited too long and the Axe-Fx II price tanked.

I sold my FM9 for Stadium XL. That being said, I agree with the sentiment that one should try a Fractal device at some point. Just exquisite sound quality and capability.

Me three. But yeah, they’re killer. I look forward to what’s next.
