leesteel Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Well the NAMM Show starts tomorrow. One of my biggest wishes would be HD Edit for IOS. What say ye? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisinon2 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 I say it's a pipe dream. If they were gonna do it, it would have happened by now. They've got their iOS platform devices in the Amplifi and Firehawk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pianoguyy Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 I doubt they would come out with it at NAMM, unless they are introducing an exclusive ANDROID (screw Apple) device, and then they could say something like - we will implement Android onto the older units that are capable of handling it. Coming out with an Android interface doesn't seem NAMM worthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
napynap Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 I'll be visiting the Line6 booth on Thursday 1/21 to find out in person what they're cooking. I'll try to post here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joel_brown Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 I'll be surprised if anything comes out for the PODHD line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
napynap Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Quick update from the Line6 room at NAMM. It appears centered around Helix, including rack mount version on floor, firehawk, and the new wireless system. Not seeing too much POD. I'll try and post some photos when I can.

ethyl80 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Any testing of the Firehawk 1500 amp to run Pod or Helix? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
napynap Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Any testing of the Firehawk 1500 amp to run Pod or Helix? They used the Firehawk 1500 amp in 'The Ultimate Stage Amp' event demo which I was unable to attend, so I don't know exactly how it was shown. However, I did attend the morning Helix demo, and it was clearly running direct through FOH Stereo. Very nice playing through many different styles, sounded great! I snapped a few photos of the room and made a collage for you all (see attached). For perspective, as soon as you walk in the door, you experience a nicely lit room with blue hues, but still warm, and you see that Helix rack staring right at you. On the right of the room are the Firehawk amps. The left side leads to the demo stage. I do recall seeing a FBV on the floor, but ran out of time to investigate, sorry no POD info to share. So much to do! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leesteel Posted January 22, 2016 Author Share Posted January 22, 2016 Hard to believe they would introduce another Amplifi when they never got the bugs worked out of the 150. I sold mine, it sucked. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyBlue27 Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Thanks for the NAMM updates! Does anybody know if you can use the FIREHAWK FX as a foot controller for the FIREHAWK 1500? I really don't want to drop an additional $250 for a foot switch! In transparency, I'm hoping to use the 1500 just for amp models and plug my regular pedalboard into the front of it but I want to be able to change amp models/channels on the fly. I really wasn't big on using the 4 cable method w th firehawk and a traditional amp. Too many cables and hassle. THANKS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
