Dear Line 6 Team, I’m writing regarding the upcoming Expand D10 module for the Helix Stadium system. I currently use a Helix Stadium together with Variax guitars and am particularly keen to restore VDI integration for recording and studio work. At the moment I am on the waitlist with Andertons Music in the UK, where I have been advised that availability may not be until around Autumn 2026. Because the D10 is important for my recording workflow, I wanted to ask whether there is any possibility of obtaining one earlier than that timeframe, or if there are any early access, beta evaluation, or limited release options available. If it helps, I would be very happy to provide feedback from real-world studio use once the unit is available. Many thanks for any information you are able to share. Best regards, Mike

Shame to hear all this. I've been trying this week to dust off my old Variax 600 and even bought a cheap pc thinking that it was the fault of Mac OS. Wish I'd seen this thread earlier. I had even toyed with the idea of buying a new Variax, but like someone has already said in this thread. Line6 will probably not support the existing ones ten years from now. Shame, why can they just hire a programmer to update all the legacy software. A Java programmer in Fiverr could probably do it in days. To answer my own question - its probably so people have to keep buying their products ever 5 - 7 years to keep the money coming in. Bad business practice to not support your users Line 6!!! (and to ignore this thread, as well...)

Shame - I was just searching on this and from the looks of things, Line6 has abandoned Podx3 support? Tell me I'm wrong? Anyone found workarounds? I'm on macOS Monterey on an M1, so I'm guessing I'm out of luck with my Variax 600 and Pod X3 Live?

Thanks phil_m, Wish I’d kept my old Vetta, but I’m sure it’d sound dated by now anyway. mike

Hi, I’m in the market for a new VARIAX amp for my old 69 VARIAX. my question is: Which current line 6 amps have VARIAX input? ( not Helix floor units, but amps.) i could not easily work this out from the Line 6 website. thanks if anyone could inform me of the models of current amps with VARIAX input. mike
