Wow that looks great - and new audio clip too haha

Multiple split and merge blocks is something that will directly impact my workflow!

Angle control of the mic - really cool!

That has been in Helix right? At least with native you can toggle the 45 degree option

Great demo of how much faster everything is going to be with a touchscreen.

See, I don't even disagree, but my personal experience with fullrange monitoring, while I had a kinda rough start (possibly just as anyone else), is just pretty wonderful. And IMO we could argue whether you get the same "instrument feel" from it or not. All I can say is that I just dig my stage sound more than ever before in at least 90% of all cases.

I’m not even doing live stuff anymore but yeah, the "FRFR" thing has been a revelation. I really dig it.

I'm not too familiar with all the features in the Helix but neither the FM3 nor the QC had this stuff - it's pretty cool to see L6's doing it.

Yeah, it’s in there. I run a dual cab on my HX Stomp with one SM57 straight in and the other SM57 is at 45°. It’s a pseudo Fredman technique.

I keep reading the subject as Line 6 Helium.
Wished they would have named it that.

Sliders!!!

Maybe? We care less about checking all the boxes than we do continuing to focus on the amps people want us to make, whether they already exist as HX models or not. I suspect there'll be some HX amps we may never get to because other never-been-in-Helix amps are higher priority.

Like the Mesa Boogie Badlander. Gotcha DI

Is there any word on whether the Stadium's screen will have a brightness control? I'm a QC user and one thing I don't love is how bright it is at even the dimmest setting when using it on my desk at night.

All I see is the same old models and parameters with a new touch UI.
Has Line 6 been working on something NEW in the last 10 years?

"Potential" does not mean anything to me, we've all seen and been through the QC fiasco.
Whales can evolve legs and run on land, takes about 100,000,000 years.

I kinda get this too… I mean the screen s great from the looks of it but why all the “old helix amps and effects”? If this is a supposedly new engine?

Among other things, they've been providing the Marshall model you've been continuously asking for.

I might be wrong, but I think @James Freeman was being sarcastic

Not all that sure about it... but possibly.

I recently checked QC's UI, which has knobs, and I must say that while I find the knobs better looking, the sliders make more sense to me in a touchscreen, UX wise
