Complete horseshit. I said nothing of the sort at all. It’s a pattern. Even
@Digital Igloo mischaracterizes what I said and how I feel. That doesn’t surprise me because that’s serves who writes his checks. It’s on his interest to do so. What’s your excuse?
"You're talking as if" literally means I know you didn't explicitly say it. But you're talking as if you might as well have said it. It isn't a mischaracterization. It is an interpretation. People do that. Ho hum.
Call me all the names you want. It strengthens your bullshit allegations in your mind I guess.
Thanks but I don't need your permission. You bedwetter.
You guys make all the excuses you need for buying this. Call it “a work in progresss” or whatever you like.
My excuse for buying this is, it looks like it not only fixes all of the issues with Helix and brings it into the modern world, but it also
will probably compete with Fractal very well. It might even be an overall better unit. Now of course I'm not putting my money down until I've tried one. But I used a Helix from 2016-2021 pretty much exclusively. I had a lot of fun and played many gigs with it in tandem with my valve amps. That counts for a lot in my view.
My position has been distorted, mangled and treated with hostility. Let’s sum it up once again from the horse’s mouth:
Maybe you're communication skills are just dogshit beyond dogshit belief?? Maybe instead of shagging Shatner's Bassoon all the time, you could work on that.
I’m disappointed it won’t launch with a completely new set of next gen effects. I expected the Stadium to have better and newer effects than my HX One from day one. Since it won’t I am disappointed.
I'll tell you what I tell my 2 year old -
"I want" doesn't get!!
I've been one of the loudest voices when it comes to not enjoying quite a number of the Helix delays, and pretty much all of the reverbs. If Stadium doesn't launch with upgraded reverbs, I will be disappointed sure. But am I going to go on a crusade about it? No. I'm going to look at the facts on the ground.
Line 6 support their shit. This isn't a NeuralDSP situation where they just want to rinse customers (particularly of their plugins) and resell them the same thing over and over. Line 6 has an exceptional track record of providing firmware updates, new features, new effects. Eric even said they're not done with Helix "1.0" .. the bloody thing was released in 2015... do you know how rare 10 years of updates actually is???
Even if Stadium didn't have any additional effects at launch, you still get roughly a gajillion different effects, and with the new units increased headroom you are going to hear some improvements just because of that.
Ultimately, the customer>company relationship DOES require trust. I buy Solovair boots because Doc Marten's today are complete dogshit. I buy Line6 and Fractal hardware and software because I know they care about what they're building and they do their best to meet customer demand. I don't buy Kemper or Neural hardware for the opposite reason.
Oh, the insanity of such a position. What a complete dumbass for even considering that desire much less mentioning it.
The problem is, you lay it on way too thick. You make it sound like the sky is falling down, and we all want to take the piss out of you because of it. The histrionics are hilarious.
Spin it in to whatever you want that supports your peace of mind. I stood up in the crowd and mentioned that I found the Emperor’s new clothes disappointing.
Like this comment here... Emperor's new clothes... what an absolutely twatty thing to say.
This is you.
