Hey Helix Team, As the Helix celebrates its 10th anniversary, what better way to commemorate this milestone than with a truly groundbreaking firmware update? Let's solidify the Helix's legacy as an enduring industry standard by adding the holy trinity of preamps: the Marshall JMP-1, the ADA MP-1, and the Mesa/Boogie Triaxis. Imagine the sonic possibilities! These iconic preamps, renowned for shaping the sound of countless legendary guitarists, would add unparalleled versatility to the Helix's already impressive sonic palette. From the British roar of the JMP-1 to the shimmering cleans and searing distortions of the MP-1, and the boundless tonal sculpting of the Triaxis, this addition would be a game-changer for Helix users across all genres. To further enhance the user experience, let's take inspiration from the intuitive visual layouts of the ToneX and Tone Master editors. A responsive "real amp" display within Helix Edit would provide a more immediate and familiar interface for dialling in tones, making the power of these classic preamps even more accessible. This anniversary update would not only be a fantastic gift to the loyal Helix community but would also attract a new generation of guitarists eager to tap into these legendary sounds within the most powerful modelling platform available. By delivering this landmark update, Line 6 would undoubtedly reinforce the Helix's position as a long-lasting industry standard, a tool that continues to inspire and empower musicians for years to come. Let's make this 10th anniversary truly special and elevate the Helix to even greater heights! Thank you for considering this exciting possibility. *Note: My Ideascale subcriptions is disabled and ll activities have been suspended
