I agree. I'm hoping Line 6 develops Proxy into something Next Level, but they've been a bit smug about the tech, and now they may be realizing it's not as simple as they thought it was, and it shows in Proxy. Fingers Crossed. I'm so glad you've experienced the same phenomenon with the QC. It's hard to explain to folks who haven't experienced it. When Line 6 reaches that level, they are serious about Capture Tech. Until then, they'll be chasing QC and Tonex....and may not even know it

That was only for not porting the Plugins onto the QC immediately. It took them 3 years to re-tool the Plugins. I bought the QC for the Capturing. It has worked perfect from day one, and I still prefer their V1 Capture over the new V2 Captures. Proxy is far from that.

Yeah, I got that. You tried CC#32 at 1, and it didn't work. But did you try it set to 0? I got results with the CC#32 set to 0. Hope you find a solution

I just spent the weekend setting up my Stadium XL to control 2 Quad Cortexes, a VoiceLIve 2, and 24 Hi-Gain amp heads on an amp wall. Spent a lot of time messing with CC#32 messages. Did you try the CC#32 set to 0?

You're trying to make something out of nothing. QC nails the feel, tone, and soul of an amp every time. Experience it over 2000 times, and you'll see what I'm talking about can't be quantified in a statement. It's just a rare phenomenon when it "sounds better". It can't really be explained with words. Line 6 is a long way from that.

It's a phenomenon that you have to experience yourself, not expound about from behind a computer keyboard. Go make over 2000 Quad Cortex Captures, and you'll experience at least once, the QC nail an amp's soul and yet, even maker it better. The rest of the time, the QC just nails the feel, tone, and soul of an amp with every capture. And fast. Proxy is way behind. Period. See any You Tube videos by Hi-Gain folks? Nope. That speaks volumes. Perhaps Capturing/Profiling is not quite as simple as they assumed it was.

I think Line 6 needs to take a HUGE look at the Capture process of the Quad Cortex. It's the best. Hands down. Instead, they seem to have copied the Kemper process which is OK. It's not great. Sure, Kemper started Profiling/Capturing, but the Quad Cortex sets the standard. It makes Captures quickly, and sometimes the Captures even sound better than the real amp. Right now, Proxy will not capture Hi-Gain amps effectively, rendering it useluess. Time to get humble and see that you're late to the Capture party, and you need to study the best: Neural Quad Cortex

I was having trouble with the Editor and the wi-fi connection dropping out or just not connecting, so I bought a TP Link Roam 6 AX1500 ($38 US) to create a Hotspot to connect both my Laptop and the Stadium XL. It works perfectly. It connects every time, and never drops out anymore. Loaded 24 songs, with 3 tracks each, into the Stadium seamlessly. Hope this helps someone!

I'm really desperate for two Legacy models to be included in a future Helix update: 1. The Sub Dub Bass model: This is the best Bass model you ever made, and was the basis of my tone in my Bass POD XT Pro. Great model for a super modern Bass tone 2. The Hi-Talk pedal model. The particular algorithm of this pedal is excellent. I used this effect a lot in my Vetta HD, and I miss it a lot, It's part of the signature sound of my band's biggest song. Really need this. Thanks for all your awesome hard work!

No problem, Ron. You got the Line 6 Cab. You can definitely play around and find some options that will sound good. Try this for a nice Mid-Gain, Blended 2 Amp Tone: Amp 1: Line 6 Boutique #1 (Dumble) (Brit V30 cab sim) Gain: 12 o'clock Bass: 9 o'clock Mid: 12 o'clock Treb: 3 o'clock Pres: FULL Vol: 2 0'clock Amp 2: Connor 50 (Cornford 50) (4x12 Hiway cab sim) Gain: 12 o'clock Bass: 9 o'clock Mid: 9 o'clock Treb: 2 o'clock Pres: FULL Vol: FULL Master Vol: OFF Bring up your Master volume and see how it fits your rig, then tweak the parameters to fill out with your rig. You're going to have a lot of fun finding awesome tones in your new Vetta HD! Here's a link to the first in a series of posts I put up about "Tweaking Awesome Tones from your Line 6 Vetta!" Let me know how it goes for you, Will

Hi Ron, I really suggest that you do NOT get the Line 6 Cab. I have a Vetta Combo, as well as the HD, and the Combo's Celestion C90 speakers (same in the 4x12 cab) are an early attempt at FRFR, and they do not sound good. Using a different, well-built 4x12 cab: Marshall, Diezel, Engl, Mesa, Orange, etc... will work excellently with the Vetta HD. I would also suggest something other than Celestion V30s, but rather 75s (G12T75) or even 100s (G12K100) speakers will give you the thump and the clarity you need to sound rich and full with the Vetta. To see which version Vetta Firmware you are running, Press the System Setup button, and scroll with the Knob to the 4th Page. It will tell you what version software you are running. If it's not Ver 2.50, then go the the Vetta Group at Reddit, and you can download the Ver 2.50 Firmware. You'll need a M-Audio Midisport Uno to connect to the amp ($50 on Amazon) and download Midi-Ox to load the firmware into the amp. Then you are finished, and off and playing! Will

I wish Line 6 would bring back the Bass Model "Sub Dub" for those folks who used it in the Bass Pod. That model is the best Bass model they ever made! Plus, a model of the "Mezzabarba Trinity" guitar amp would be nice too...

Hi Ron, Hello to you in the beautiful NL from Southern California! That's so cool that you got a Vetta HD, and are getting it up to spec! I've received a lot of compliments on my Vetta HD tones for the last 18 years, including this last summer. It will sound awesome for you! 1. No, I did not have to re-flash the firmware. Everything has worked perfect since the battery change. 2. I never had any problems with static electricity replacing the battery in the Vetta HD and Vetta Combo. I wore latex gloves while I worked on the Vettas. Here's a tip for the Vetta HD: Run it without Cab Sims through your aftermarket cab. I've run mine through a Marshall 1960A 4x12 the whole time, and it sounds HUGE. Let us know how the battery change goes. All the best, Will

Save Your Vetta!! If you still use your Line 6 Vetta Combo or Vetta HD, at some point you will have to replace the internal CR2430 lithium battery. The battery doesn't last forever, so it's an eventual issue that you'll have to address. Guess what? It isn't as hard as you think it is. Really! I've replaced the internal lithium batteries in both my Vetta HD and Vetta Combo recently, and the amps are performing excellently, and I use them regularly for gigs and rehearsal! I posted a step by step guide with pics at my website which explains exactly what I did.CLICK HERE I hope this helps a lot of Vetta Owners!! I love my Line 6 Vetta!
