Line 6 Helix Stadium Pre-Launch Discussion

[banned]

YOU ARE USING THE STADIUM XL WRONG!!!

Considering I don't have it - I'd say you're right.

Manual.

I thought I had read somewhere that Stadium automatically selects an impedance curve that matches the selected cab, and I wanted to look up how this is handled when you load your own IR instead of a factory cab. I thought you might be able to choose between different curves yourself. However, the manual does not contain any information on this, and I have not been able to find anything on this topic in any videos so far.

I hear it helps if you think about baseball.

Has anyone been able to find out if the batch that MF/GC almost shipped out early are going out today? There's no way to tell, since the shipping status has been stuck at "label created" for a few weeks.

Honestly Jon, your video was the first one I wanted. We have very similar ideas on tones, and I knew you'd do all the stylistic shit I do. I'm basically sold on this unit, and I'm soooooooo glad I sold my Quad Cortex earlier in the year. Just gotta wait for Andertons to pull their finger out now!

I like how the butthole puckers when you go into focus mode.

DI scrambling to the graphics team right now:

@Digital Igloo , now that the XL genie is out of the bottle, will you show the same love for Stadium non-XL (they are both flagships according to Line 6), does the company have plans for separate videos to show how, let’s say, a lack of scribble strips works and how it changes a user flow? Thank you!

I don't see how the lack of scribble strips can change a user's flow; do you think that makes a lot of difference (legitimately asking)?
That and the expression pedal are out but you gain portability so... gives & takes my 2c.

I normally don't rate a lot of Fluff's tones. But he's made it sound pretty damn awesome too!

I'm telling you, the Revv is soooo fucking sick. I want a real one as well.

Nicely done video Jon!

I hear you. Without going into details, I see on the videos that they show some info that’s not displayed on the screen. So if they are removed, that info is not there to see. There must be some different UI for non-XL comparing to XL - that’s what I want to know and see.
I really didn’t care for the built-in pedal, hence why I pre-ordered non-XL.

The non-XL or the Stompium is what's on my mind as well. I'm behind the vids that came out today so I need to catch up and see what it's all about.
