Line 6 Helix Stadium Talk

Full disclosure... I must admit that I actually really like some Nickelback songs, especially from the first few albums.

And there goes all my Black Metal credibility.

I'm afraid I've now lost any right to condemn you for that, haven't I? May I do so anyway?

Nicklelback actually has some pretty good riffs in the catalogue

I was a nu metal late 20-something I think both are terrible but they fit the bill either way Not sure if I get Scorpion King bonus points for choosing I Stand Alone?

You need a Sevendust track in the setlist!

What I would do for a trumpet rendition

Yesterday in another place a guy I respect mentioned the OG [divided by]13 model, which I remember liking when it first came out, but at the time I got distracted by something else. I decided to try it last night because of of the various anecdotes from people who thought the OG models/presets sound better in Stadium. I just made a copy of my Jujube preset and dropped the Divided Duo in parallel with it along with whatever the default cab/mic are. It took a little wrangling but I got it into my zone (with the Jujube turned off). I really can't say if it sounds better on Stadium than it would have on OG, but what was really kind of cool was that with both amps together in parallel gave me something I really like. I dunno if those two amps "should" go together or not, but I was in hog heaven wallowing in the not-at-all murky thickness of it. I'll try it again later because I probably had tired ears by then. In the meantime I'm itching to pair up some of the other models to see what I can come up with. Almost 9 years now in the Helix ecosystem, and that was probably the first time I ever built a preset with 2 amps. I remember downloading one from CustomTone a longish time ago, but for me it was pretty awful.

I's still having so much fun with just creating the occasional preset and playing through the stadium I still haven't even tried to do anything with Showcase, and Proxy is right around the corner assuming things go well. And even more stuff Line 6 won't even tell us about yet. I may never get caught up.

@Digital Igloo, the bug where you'd be popped back over to the User setlist when editing and saving a preset in a different setlist was fixed in 1.2 — for the unit. But that still happens if you edit and save in the Helix app. Just FYI.

Thanks!

Bumping this up in case it got lost in all the Nickleback discussion.

Also, since 1.2.1, I've noticed that the wi-fi connection to the app will disconnect and be unable to reconnect without a reboot.

I understand some folks have been having those issues, but they didn't hit me until AFTER the latest update.
