Line 6 Helix Stadium Talk

I get the sentiment but if I'm spending $2000+ on a device, I want it to be as accurate as possible. If I was just worried about good sounds, you can pull just about any digital unit off the shelf for much cheaper and be content with good tone.

100%

You can get good sounds out of the original Pod, Headrush, Zoom etc.

I personally am paying the big bucks for a solution that can hot swap the physical amp-out signal and not be able to tell the difference.

@mikah912 Thanks for the presets, enjoyed messing with them. The Mark preset inspired me to evolve a riff I’ve been working on

That's awesome! Thanks for the shout-out.

Working on more too.

Jeez, another Fender employee is throwing shade at Helix Stadium on our own FB forums. What the hell is wrong with these people?

It's an obvious concerted effort I see in the comments to pretty much every influencer video + amplifying every bug report on FB and forums and so on and so forth.

Just so blatant and bot-like.

Idk, I also think it's dangerous to assume every negative comment is a bot

100 percent agree, and there are plenty of legit bug reports and even quibbles with tones backed by empirical data.

That stuff matters, for sure.

It is suspicious, however, when new people to forums or FB groups take a very negative tone on the product right out of the gate with no photos, audio or video of their own unit.

And the cut and paste "It still sounds digital" nonsense is the most mindless and lazy trolling of them all.

It’s sad. If they want to promote their products they should work on getting their iic+ and silver jubilee actually sounding like the much more accurate ones in the stadium.
