Line 6 Helix Stadium

[nicolasrivera]

And just like that Line6 has once again made everything else look obsolete, everything!.

Well done @Digital Igloo

Matrix is probably the killer feature for @Sascha Franck?

Might be - but as said in the other thread already, it might as well just be for rapid patch modification rather than realtime usage. We'll see.

Just placed my preorder at SW

How? I don't see it listed.

At work, didn’t get to watch the stream. So if this is a helix device, what does that mean for the older helix devices…they get similar features (agora?) with a firmware update? Native too?

I think he's messing with us.

My rep emailed me and asked if I wanted to preorder lol I did and they sent me an order confirmation

I am not. My rep emailed me right after the event asking if I wanted to be placed on the list. I said I did and they sent me my preorder confirmation

I assume they aren't charging till shipment?

The only thing I can see missing in a transition from QC to non-XL Stadium is the 2X Neutrik combo jacks (vs. 1x 1/4" and 1x XLR.) But I can live with that. Would almost certainly keep one QC anyway. (But not two LOL.)

Correct! And it's in my order history as we speak

 

[mbenigni]

Pretty sure this is their policy; pretty sure I have a phone call to make. :)

Just watched the live stream and the amount of new features and innovations they've added to this thing is mind-blowing.
Kudos to Line 6, that's almost as good as the Kemper mk2!

PS: this might look like a minor thing, but I'm happy you can finally have multiple splits per path

Killer unit, really interested to see where they are taking this as they are clearly thinking much bigger than the typical flagship guitar modeler.

Is it for me though? I can’t tell yet. More footswitching control, check. More dsp, check (but is it ever enough???). Fractal level reverb and amps? That’s probably the deciding factor for me. They probably can make me happy on the amp front. If they get the reverb I might be back to L6. If not, it’s deciding what I’m willing to trade off. Pretty happy with FM9 life sonically, so probably bot willing to give up much on that front.

Time will tell….

It’s awesome though regardless of whether or not it’s for me.

Forgot to mention the multiple splits. That was one of my big gripes with the helix.

Can someone tell Thomann they need those „reps“, too? I‘m waiting for my call.

 

[Sedaxel]

Null tests with proxy technology will be interesting...

 

[ispunk]

I'm really hoping for a redesign of HX EDIT/NATIVE!

NO MOAR SLIDERZ!!!!!!






fingers crossed

Daddy needs new "MIDI controller"

Yeah, that's one of the things from the "what the doctor ordered" category for me.

I like the form factor and it suits my needs.

I was trying to remember this quote the other day.
