Large sections of the planet that are soon to be off limits to a whiny orange man baby?
too soon....too close to restricted commentary?
Sorry, I blame the blood orange old fashioned I just invented. It went down way too easy and fast... I'll stop now

things getting pretty sad around here
I thought Minecraft.
You should not die unknowing. Global blocks is concept where you have the settings of a certain block in your signal chain being persistent over all presets. So when you change a setting in that block the change is reflected in every preset that uses this particular (probably named or otherwise marked) block. One example use case would be an amp/cab block that you use on multiple presets for a gig. When you make adjustments on that block, you want it to be the same on all presets. It is one, besides "channels" the most discussed, concept to overcome the limitations of presets and snapshots/scenes.

If anyone, I should possibly start a dedicated thread for global blocks.
But I'll give it a subheading such as "for all the dumb idiots not knowing to dial in patches". Alternatively "but I've never seen Nuno touching his amp knobs11!1!1!!!1" would work as well.

If it's not only about global blocks but general discussion about overcoming plain presets/scenes/snapshots, I'm in.

I must have misunderstood at the time, because I thought the first shipment actually went out a couple of weeks ago - and then sold out. Maybe it was just one beta tester (Nathan?) who got his early?Yeah. While y'all were bickering, Line 6 globally launched the non-XL (a.k.a. Helix Stadium Floor) this week, and it's already shipping. I see it listed in stock in a number of retailers.
Hoping to get mine soon

In the US, we call that a preorder.

Lips sealed re: political content; heart emoji for blood orange old fashioned. :)
Pro-tip: Bullet rye with a splash of amaretto. Wave some cherry bitters around if you're feeling fancy. Heaven.

Oh, no. Remember the dude on TOP that wouldn't let go of the idea that every order is a preorder. Or was it vice versa? Anyway, he was a pedantic dick.

Yeah, there were a few shipments going out early - IIRC the first HXS Floor delivered was to some guy in South Africa. It's now officially available worldwide.
“The best-sounding, most powerful, and most flexible processing Line 6 has ever offered”: Line 6’s Helix Stadium Floor is finally shipping – 8 months after it was first unveiled
The smaller Helix Stadium Floor variant offers the same powerful modeling and unique live rig features, but with a more compact footprint

"Is that piss? IS THAT PISS?"
So one annoying bug I've come across, @Digital Igloo, is that MIDI sometimes does not work when I first boot up. All the connections are correct, but no MIDI messages are sent, not even thru messages. A reboot fixes it, but it's annoying.
"Runaway train never coming back.."
Admittedly, Showcase is the feature I will personally use the least for the foreseeable future (the groups I perform with like to do stuff impromptu, and we don't switch guitar tones mid-song nearly that much), but that is a powerful and hella cool demo of how it takes something "techy" like laptop MIDI automation and makes it more approachable for the everyday guitarist.
I noticed DI mentioned that providing a way to control the XY pad thingy without bending down and touching it was also on their radar. That could work great for live use!
