Line 6 Helix Stadium

Yeah exactly, and I will ignore it, just as I ignore Badonk etc. But there is a difference between features that I think are good, but I have no need for and therefore ignore, and features that I think are a gimmick. I don't mind eating my words, but a hype knob would not be my preference to achieve sounds beyond what the stock model is capable of.

If a modeller came along and offered "MIX READY IR's" as a new feature, I'd similarly just try to remove them from the device and go for the cab engine with moveable mics. Others might prefer a gimmick that changes the sound in an unpredictable way but it's not really what I'm looking for.

It's not an issue either, it's just simply not for me at all. It's totally in the opposite direction of what Im looking for. I'd rather it wasn't there, but if I have to ignore it, thats fine too.

:hmm
 
Hype is set to "Off" on all amp defaults (and I believe Focus zones).
I was thinking about the Stadium today and I remembered a comment about how Agora is actually going to make modeling amps quicker and easier for your team. With that in mind, is something like switching out tube types, resistor and cap values something that could be implemented, or is that an idea that's been thrown around the office? Like if people could change all the values in an amp it would be like a build your own custom amp block, that would be pretty sick! Am I way out in left field, outside the boundaries of reality here?
 
I’m pretty high but I just watched the Focus Zones video and I’m getting pretty hyped about the Stadium. (And, no, I’m not trying to continue the thread on the Hype control.)

That shit with the Vox was frictionless, and the different zones all sounded nice to me (listening through my phone speakers and in a green haze).

I feel like this has the potential to be my favorite piece of gear, ever.

Yes, that's something that Agoura could probably accomplish.
