I have noticed that when my shows the "X" home screen, when I am in the middle of something, that the sound is unaffected and it comes back pretty quickly. Still, it's an annoyance.

Is this a preset imported from an OG Helix, built using the Stadium App, or built from the ground up only on the Stadium Unit itself. Imported OG Helix presets are prone to a variety of issues, the Stadium App is not much better, and there are still occasional issues building only on the Stadium unit itself (I have seen with parameter assignments) - BUT, it is still the most reliable option.

I am curious if this preset was hatched via the Stadium App or was handcrafted on the Stadium itself. I have noticed assignment issues with the Stadium Unit itself as I have been also working with Support and can get an assignment to work consistently, but I have to save it every time I assign the same parameter in order to get it to work. And then when I switch Presets or turn the unit off, the assignments are not there again. I avoid the Stadium App right now because there are even more issues that it creates.

I, too have noticed the red flash in the output blocks at the end of each path. I have noticed that the effects can bunch up rather quickly where you start a clean path with -23 dBA and just a few blocks later with an amp are getting the red light up at the end of the path with the default settings. You have to pay much more attention to the gain staging than you did with the older unit. However, this is all new hardware and underlying architecture so my guess is that the block have not been fine tuned to the Stadium yet by Line 6 - though I can't imagine why not... Anyways, it would be good for someone who has the know how to do some null tests or other digital goodness to see what the actual input/output of each of the block actually is. Jason Sadites has preached a Gospel of do what you want and don't worry about gain staging for the non-transparent blocks (e.g. EQ, Compression, Distortion, Fuzz, POG, etc.) but watch how you use the Delays, Reverbs, etc. (You know, those effects that last over new notes that cumulatively up the gain). But the Stadium does indeed to appear to be a might more sensitive. Anybody got any hard data to share?

The LumiKit looks pretty awesome too! Maybe I should've ordered that one!

hmmm, Good catch. I hope that you filed a ticket with Line 6 support. Their search functionality has always been lacking on their web site but I have found the search functionality on the Stadium very good so far. Except for this little hiccup.

Interesting. I have ordered Chad Boston's as the design looks good to me. But I would also like to put something directly on the screen. Can you post pictures of the applied screen protector on your Helix and report how the touch screen is behaving with it on? I would hope that it is just like most screen protectors on phones these days and works wonderfully well.

Also, for now, unfortunately, there are multiple problems with importing OG Helix presets. You may run into issues. Building the presets cleanly on the Stadium XL has been very successful and the Line 6 team did a pretty great job at making this about as easy (without a mouse) as I think could be done. Just a cautionary tale... Line 6 support has acknowledged issues with the import process. But it also might be dependent on the complexity of the preset being imported.

All of the Legacy FX blocks that were Legacy on the OG Helix are ONLY Stereo. There is no MONO version of any of them. So far, Line 6 has brought over ALL of the OG Helix FX blocks, including the Legacy. Due to the new Agoura Amp modelling, Amps and Cabinets are another story. But it appears that Line 6 has given Helix Stadium users access to everything except the pre OG Helix 3.0 Legacy cabinets. That and the combining of the Low and High Shelf and the Parametric EQ, which already have the Low and High Cut.

I am on v1.2 and have had this happen. It is a minor inconvenience and an annoyance. But I think that it may have to with with Wifi Connectivity. What has been your experience?

I have logged this issue and am currently working with Line 6 support. So far, they have confirmed that there are some known issues when exporting presets to Stadium. I have found that creating a preset exclusively on the Stadium and not using the Stadium App has not produced the issues that I have seen on the Stadium App, including this one. I have successfully created two inline cabinets (both using File files), and have been able to use Snapshots to change the IR files with no problem on the Stadium (I don't believe that this can be done reliably in the Stadium App until they resolve the Cabinet/Snapshot issues we are seeing.

I have no experience in setting/using the MIDI clock on the Stadium yet. I am just not set up for that quite yet. Sorry.

I have run into many different issues from connectivity, Sound, Parameter assignment, and Impulse Response switching in Presets. I have hardly run the gamut of capabilities of this fantastic device yet. BUT, I have found (so far) that programming a preset exclusively on the Stadium XL floor unit alone has produced significantly more consistent and expected results. I don't know about anyone else here, but I have had (almost - holding cards here) - NO PROBLEMS creating presets on the Stadium as compared to the Stadium App that I am running on Windows 11 (Latest update as of this writing). If you run into any issues, carefully build the preset from scratch using only the interface on the Stadium itself and see if you have nearly as many issues. I would be interested to now of issues with the Stadium App OR on the Stadium floor unit alone. I think that doing a little of BOTH is just asking for trouble until Line 6 gets the newborn issues under control. Try using only the Stadium interface. You'll still have to import stuff using command center on the App - but that should not present any problems.

Has anyone else had a problem on the Stadium with any of the Block parameter displays when editing on the touch screen? If I switch the Dual Delay from "Off" to "On" the little underscore line moves to the right but the left underscore stays green (just slightly dimmer and not frey like other parameter underscore lines) I was just wondering if this is a reported bug. I am NOT talking about the Stadium App as I am NOT using it since it has had so many issues.

Line 6 appears to have a problem with Cabinets on imported presets from OG Helix. The fix that seems to work is to select a different preset (Known to be good) and restart the unit (1+ minutes later - you are back in business.) (Sort of). :-(
