Stadium app definitely doesn't work with a USB connection to a PC!

Do you use a Volume block for overall preset level and just change your amp "Level" setting with the snapshot?
-
I've only built a few presets that are extensive so I just went ahead and upgraded without even backing the presets up to the computer. Worked like a charm!
-
Will you rework your old presets with new models?
glideman replied to Nos402's topic in Helix Stadium
Already half way done building clones of my main gigging presets from scratch! -
Yeah, I use my Axe FX III MkII Turbo for bigger stage gigs and bring my rack and FC-12 + 2 expression pedals pedalboard.

Does Stadium support SDXC standard or do you have to use a FAT32 format tool? -
Focus View Settings Missing in Stadium App
glideman replied to chrisbrooks1's topic in Helix Stadium
Same here! -
I would rather go the 4u rack size with the big screen for a rack version!!!

Expression Pedal Control of Output Volumes?
glideman replied to rondesjardins's topic in Helix Stadium
I'm back from FAS Land (although I'll still be keeping my AFX III Mk II Turbo and FM9T. Ready to try the new thing on the street once the pre-order gets here!!! -
So what year do we see another update for the Helix? LoL!
-
This COVID crap keeps ramping, a lot of people better enjoy what they have and hold onto it. Lots of music stores have tons of items on back order due to supply chain shortages in multiple stages of product production and distribution ...

It kinda sucks that my Helix is sitting inside the church awaiting the Sunday morning service activities.... Dohhhhh!!! :P

I signed up... probably too late.... but I did it anyway.... Helix Native, Helix Floor, Powercab Plus 1x12

In my room that's my office/studio control room (whole upstairs can be used as studio recording space and use remote control of the digital console and computer downstairs), I have a Presonus Studiolive 32 Series 3. I've got everything hooked up where I can play to a JBL 15" plus horn monitor, and/or Presonus studio monitors with a 10" sub. I have pretty much multiplexed inputs and outputs where I can do about anything and everything I want to with headphones, studio monitors, or PA speakers. Multiple FRFR speakers as well, plus the Hughes & Kettner Triamp Mk 3 and a 4x12 cab are in there for blowing up the neighbors every once in awhile.... LoL!!!

Nothing like a happy ending to a pesky bug problem!!!
-
There is/was a trial of so many days for Axe. I guess you probably eat the return shipping, though. Ouch.

I have Helix, Kemper Stage, and Axe FX III. You can do well with any of the 3. I find Helix floor the most purely portable and it's easy to use without a computer (although I prefer major programming with a laptop). I have no trouble getting highly useable sounds. Axe FX III I will give the edge since this latest series of firmware builds currently at 10.2. It is impressive with the tones I've coaxed out of the newer features. You can't really screw up going with any of the three. I'm not a fanboy on any of the forums other than "great job on this guys" whenever warranted by the 3 manufacturers. Biggest thing is get a really good monitor or FRFR amps if you're going to go direct. Good luck!

Guys who have gone from all tube amp to all digital. Opinions?
glideman replied to ledvedder5150's topic in Helix
I have the following 3 FRFR solutions, although I usually just play through the two JBL sidefill monitors (actually powered mains on a pole for stage monitoring). I have plenty of volume with these and pretty much hear the whole band just like what the audience hears since one of these is close to my ears. 1. Mission Gemini 2 2x12 with ability to dial the horns out via a control pot. I personally don't dial the horns out and totally feel like I am getting an amp in the room sound for me. It can get freaking LOUD to me at close to 4x12 cab levels. It sounds really good! 2. Xitone convertible open/closed back MBritt 1x12 FRFR. Also pretty darn loud, and has a very pleasing output. This had no problem keeping up with our former second guitarist before he left the band. 3. Line 6 Powercab Plus FRFR. This one is fairlyclose to Xitone volume and us very serviceable. I don't use the simulations of guitar cabs, just straight FRFR. -
Wow!!! Never knew this... I must have missed some of the update notes. Dohhhh

glideman replied to ledvedder5150's topic in Helix
I've found if you have an FRFR that can push some air that you can get amp in the room sound... I sure as heck haven't enjoyed my 2 custom tube amps I kept much in a few years now. I have Helix, Axe FX III, and Kemper Stage. I love all 3. -
Love the new amps and features!!! Was visiting my wife's brother for 2 weeks, plus toured the PRS Guitars factory on the way back to SC, USA! Tackled the upgrade this morning and played around all day just about! Great job, Line 6!

I think I gotta go to the bathroom for a few............... Errrrrrrr
-
Gemini 2 will light your @$$ up, won't it? Hehehe. I have had the cops called on me when having a mega volume jam at the house!!! Barely have to get it cooking at a typical gig!

Yep. Most of my posts with the major players is to share with others what I've had and what I've sold. The key here is that you and I know that we could live with any of the major players for a solution. Most of the time, I tend to have one of one brand and one of the other for a backup/change of pace and one for church and one for my secular rock band. I usually keep them for beyond the return windows unless I get a dud or absolutely hate the product. If I couldn't have 2 or 3 at a time, I'd probably do what some others have done and cycle through them even if it meant a return of one or two. You pretty much pointed out the massive markup for retailers on guitars and music products. It's not my regular practice, but I don't frown on someone else having to do it. I do enough business with all of them to where they more than make up for the losses for returns anyway. LoL! I am a MusiCraKHo...... LoL!!!
