Line 6 Helix Stadium

[Mikael Dez]

I have songs with 30+ instances of Helix Stadium. No reamping ever required, because they're all running in real time. I just use Helix Rack as a front end/variable impedance input now and when I want to mess around without having to boot up my studio Mac and Logic.

Does this mean you’re using some prototype of a future Stadium plugin on your Mac?

I’m guessing he meant Helix Native, but maybe not

Crap. Believe me or don't, but there is currently no working version of Agoura in a plugin. There is currently no Helix Stadium Native (but a betting person could safely infer we'll eventually get there). I honestly just mistyped that; fixed.

EDIT: Damn, I did it twice! Well, I've typed the word "Stadium" so many damn times this week...

No worries!

it's so much easier to just use plugins like Helix Stadium.

I KNEW IT!!!

Sadly, it was a Digital-Igloo's-feverish-typing-resulted-in-typo mistake. But yes, we would LOVE to make a Stadium-compatible plugin; just got a lot of other things on our plate right now.

They want to buy a modeler, and they want it to sound like the heavens from the first chord.

I agree with both you and @MirrorProfiles - but on a unit with literally endless amounts of presets, anything and anything in between should be somewhat doable.

Anyhow, I think a great block preset library would be a welcomed addition (in case there are block presets). Would allow people to explore any kind of somewhat complexed blocks a bit faster in context without loading a completely new preset.

I know. I just had to rib you on that one and give something for us to obsess over for the next 15 minutes.

Honestly the future release of a plugin is huge but I just don’t like turning my Mac on if I don’t have to - I can wait.

are the touchscreens different between say android and apple?

Depends on the Android device, but out of the Samsungs I owned (some S models, now a lesser A55, plus some Tab A things), none of them could compete with Apple's screens. For any kind of daily usage, it might not matter, but once you're dialing in more delicate things, it does.
Just around 1 week ago I had an opportunity to A/B the very same (HTML based) IEM mixing app on a higher end Samsung tablet and a not even all new iPad and the difference was quite notable. The iPad registered my finger position every bit how I imagined it would whereas the Samsung felt kinda sluggish in comparison.
I think that's something Apple has really nailed.

The older I get the less patient I become. Damn, I wish all future Helix Stadium products were available from day one. I really want the new features, but I‘m pretty sure the floor version just isn‘t the right thing for my use case. I need something that either fits on my desk or in my DAW. But I also don‘t want to wait several years for the Stadium SKU that suits my needs best.

Anything to keep this thread going. We have until "fall" and it's not even "sommer" here yet.
