Davon kann ich ein Lied singen. Gute Besserung!

ganz lieben Dank!

I cant think of any better workflow or powerful capabilities than Fractal Edit
No eye candy there for sure but meh dont need that to make great tones

Hitting the edit button a bunch of times to get to the effect near the end of your signal chain in 2025 is ludicrous. Have fun when you go past it and have to loop back around to the start and do it again, which I do about 25% of the time, along with an expletive.

To go back, double-tap EDIT.

This!
Just returned from a short rehab, severe depression much better, looking forward to long-time-therapy in a couple of weeks, resuming my mainly lurking existence in this wonderful forum:

Shit! Over 40 new pages!!!

I hate my life.

Welcome back!

And this is why I like rack gear

Totally get that, but then you're back to needing to be hooked up to a pc to do anything for changes aren't you?

In 1995 maybe, but these days the entire UI should live on an iPad and connect seamlessly over wireless/BT. An Android tablet option would be nice as well.

Two things I'm most excited for with the Stadium: 1. iPadOS/iOS editor. 2. USB-C.

VP4 is already way easier to use than any of their other products so I think they’re on the right track and realize they need to step up.

It’s “way easier” because it’s not near as complex as their other devices. Can’t really say they are on the right track. It’s still not great by any means

This is the single weirdest Line 6 thread I've ever been a part of.

I like it.

Read the room…

Yeah, when I picked up my LT second hand I had to go in the loft to find an old usb cable with that weird pilgrim house shape to it.

The pilgrims would not have built a house so faulty
Whomever thinks using that port in 2025 is in league with Satan

I don’t mind the old usb b ports for a device that sits on the floor. Big and chunky with a secure connection. Usb c ports get loose over time.

Why does everyone act like buying Line 6 or Fractal makes it so you can't buy the other one too?

 

[Deadpan]

Question, can one run an effects loop over USB?

Who said that? I've had multiples of each.

For some people, there can "be only one" because these aren't cheap devices. That doesn't mean there needs to be territorial pissing though.

Exactly.
Once upon a time I had a kemper, AX3, QC, H90 and a Helix simulaneously.
Decisions, decisions...then I realized I had to eat. I started with the QC power supply but it tasted as bad as it worked.

According to DI, there will not be a mobile editor at launch, just a desktop editor that connects via wi-fi.

That’s fine. It’ll come eventually.
