I don't see this mentioned too much it at all on this thread. The whole, play this DI through the patch to see what it's intended to sound like, is kinda cool
Ah, don‘t be jealous. Playing Helix Stadium was great but honestly I felt very, very uncomfortable 95% of the time at the summit. Because of my chronically ill wife I‘m just not used to being around so many people anymore. We haven‘t really been anywhere in the last couple of years and this was pretty much the first time I thought „Fuck it, I‘m going alone then.“. And as soon as I entered the summit I felt overwhelmed by everything. The people, the lack of fresh air, the smell, the noise… But I digress…
Everyone who claims the QC is the best looking modeler out there.., wait until you see Stadium in person. It’ a beauty. And the touchscreen is really responsive.

That's why there's "NAMM-thrax". People get sick every year, even when there aren't a plague.Not too different than going to NAMM, I'd imagine. When I first walked in I felt overwhelmed due to the amount of people and how spread out everything was, there was this sense of "I'm not going to see everything I want to and holy fuck there's a lot of people here!!!"
After a few hours the people just turned into objects I had to maneuver around.
Mark IV, Mark VII, BL100, Transatlantic, ED......Get to Agoura'ing the Boogies!
Kicking it off with the models already in there would be a start!That's why there's "NAMM-thrax". People get sick every year, even when there aren't a plague.

I'd prefer my tastes be met, first and foremost.Kicking it off with the models already in there would be a start!
I wouldn't thank him too quickly. In less than a month's time, he'll be telling everyone how to get "Helix Stadium sounds for only $169.99!!!! Don't be a chump!! Save money and buy this thing that's not remotely comparable to the Stadium, for way less, that'll break in 90 days!!"Well this was certainly a nice surprise. Thanks, Glenn! Great seeing you again.
Wow you guys actually managed to sway the Frick. Congratulations!
My brain: "PatFrick Swayze"Wow you guys actually managed to sway the Frick. Congratulations!
that's a pretty strong endorsementA pal is at whatever the fuck Sweetwater’s event is this weekend, and he dialed in a patch on the Stadium. He said the UI is unsurprisingly awesome, and the Agoura amp modeling is really good. As an FM9 owner, he’d say it’s at or slightly better than what Fractal is at now.
He’s strongly considering switching teams. He owns Friedmans Mesas, and other high end shit, so I know he’s not shitting me.
The screen on both is exactly the same. The overall size on Stadium is smaller by just about the width of the expression pedal. The big differences on the Stadium are no pedal, no scribble strips, and a couple less I/O tiwms on the back. And slightly different construction.Indeed. I know what i'm getting feature wise, i'm mostly interested about the new view display - and the form factor. The Stadium XL looked quite more compact in those hands-on demos than i was expecting.

Oh. Isn’t it basically the same as the LT or no?The new view display (a-la Helix LT), not the physical screen.

Same here. Between the pandemic and my wife’s cancer battle during the pandemic we didn’t go anywhere for years either. Being around people again took getting used to. Watch out for your mental health with this. I slipped into some serious depression because I didn’t.I felt very, very uncomfortable 95% of the time at the summit.
