Line 6 Helix Stadium Talk

Fwiw, I ripped the audio from Leo Gibson's video and trimmed out the important parts (following the nulltest, where he's comparing dynamics and what not). Then I lined them up very exactly below each other and ever so slightly adjusted the volumes so they'd be identical. I could now play the original, select one of the other tracks (Stadium or Sonulab) and instantly solo them with a single click (and with my eyes closed so I would kinda randomly click around dozens of times to make myself forget which track was playing).
I'm not able to tell much of a difference during all the louder parts, but on all ringing out notes, the Stadium was closer to the original, in addition, the Sonulab files are noisier (made one test to level the different takes on the ending noise, when I got the noise level pretty much identical, the Sonulab was noticeable lower in overall volume, which kinda proved what my ears were suggesting already).
IOW, to me it seems that Proxy is doing a pretty decent job already, at least compared to the Sonulab box.
