Line 6 Helix Stadium

[Byrdman]

If that guy was so sensitive to report a joke about his guitar looks, he was probably affected by what I call SDS (Small Dick Syndrome). That's quite endemic on TOP (mods included).

That was kind of the joke, that someone that likes that guitar lives in his mom's basement and couldn't get laid. Evidently, I hit a nerve with one of the popular posters. Like I said, Fuck them

Oh, didn't see that thread until you mentioned it... Kinda hard rules (and not sure my post actually breaks them) but I can get why that was necessary

I didn’t think your post necessarily crossed any lines, but the mods have complained about getting a lot of complaints, so I thought someone might hit report, annoy our mods, and get you in trouble. I figured a friendly warning would produce a better outcome.

What are people hoping for in the initial Agoura amp lineup?

I'd really love a great AC30

This. As long as I have a fantastic AC30 and a fantastic 2203, my bases are covered for 99% of my live playing.

This new "modern" AC30 is an unknown to me, however. Is it the CC (Custom Classic) as the screen shot suggests? That's an odd choice if so.

@Digital Igloo I know it's an older product, but are there plans to have the DT50 amp linked with the Stadium like the OG Helix? I saw it mentioned that Powercab will have this but have not seen anything about the DT50.

I had heard this wasn't at launch, and maybe not in the future either.

Even if I might never use showcase in a live situation (and I'd love to use it, honestly), just having more blocks, more paths and 2 stomp pages makes stadium worth the price Imho.

I imagine Showcase is going to see more use in practice/ rehearsal situations than in live performances. E.g. drummer can't make it? Hello, Showcase.

Anyway, personally I would love a forum section where we could freely (but respectfully and humourously) talk about politics or religion

Fortunately, it already exists!!

You don't like the latest Helix 2203?

I'm composing my @Drew PM manifesto right now.

I believe that fun at home and basic practice will be the main usage of showcase but I also expect that it will be used a lot live for small things like playing intros, other prerecorded sounds and occasional backing tracks.

And after all, for any band that has at least the drummer playing on a click track, showcase will make using few backing tracks here and there quite simple & straightforward.

And then there are all the solo artists.

Yes, and the integration with the not yet discussed looper functionality could really expand what a solo artist could do, probably beyond what my aging brain can even imagine at the moment.

I'm looking forward to having some subset of what Camelot Pro brings to the table, but always on hand and (almost certainly) MUCH easier to use. (Camelot is incredibly versatile but routing is not exactly intuitive. And file management on iOS is a notorious pain in the ass.)

So are you saying I am allowed to send a PM with the meme I posted and deleted earlier to every single user on this forum?

 

[Vic Winters]

So only the Amp+Cab blocks have different speaker impedance curves in Helix? I'd love some more info on how it works.

It should be like this. With the amp + cab in the Stadium, changing cabs should change the impedance curve relative to the chosen amp.

There’s a GIF I’d LOVE to use right now but I’d be breaking our own rules.

It's all about prioritization. At this point, I'd guess fewer than 20 people worldwide currently control DT amps with Helix/Rack/LT, and the assumption is that not all of them will update to Stadium, so the amount of work needed to define, implement, test, iterate, and nail DT support for the benefit of a population likely in the single digits isn't a non-starter by itself, but compared to all the other things that could benefit tens or hundreds of thousands of current and future users, it ends up being a pretty big ask, I'm afraid.

Not saying no, but if it doesn't happen, there may eventually be another path forward.

You could, but I'd argue it needs to be funnier for that level of shithousery
