Helix Stadium: RACK & EDIT ??

[Rick-Rocks-2019]

Can anyone tell me if there are any plans to introduce a Helix Stadium Rack model?

Also, I imagine for those of us with vision impairment issues the Helix Edit software is more of a necessity, therefore will another version of the Edit software be made available for the new Stadium platform?

TIA!

No Rack model has been announced. Never say never but I doubt it.

 

Yes, some sort of Helix Stadium Edit will be available.

I think the days of rack effect units are over.  Or let's just say it's not so popular.  There is no Headrush rack version, no Quad Cortex rack version, etc.  I've seen a rig rundown for Megadeth, and they are on Quad Cortex, which are placed into drawers, and they manage.  

 

But then again, Line 6 released the Helix Rack later, after the Helix.  So maybe it will happen.  Who knows?  

 

I personally like how Fractal FM9 is laid out: you can use it as a "rack", because you can connect a remote to it: a 12 buttons, screens, etc..  That is the best of both worlds, IMO.  My perfect processor would be something like an FM3: 3 buttons only, but with all the power of a full-blown unit.  So I could take a small box to a recording session, or connect a pedalboard to it and expand on the number of switches.  Oh well.

Αυτή η ρύθμιση ακούγεται ισχυρή για ζωντανές εμφανίσεις. Τα σωστά εργαλεία επεξεργασίας κάνουν όλη τη διαφορά στον έλεγχο του τόνου και των εφέ. Είναι σαν να επιμελείσαι την τέλεια λίστα αναπαραγωγής σου στο 5gringos casino, οι επιλογές έχουν σημασία, αλλά ο τρόπος που τις οργανώνεις και τις εφαρμόζεις καθορίζει αν το τελικό αποτέλεσμα θα είναι κομψό και αξιόπιστο υπό πραγματικές συνθήκες.

Thanks for the advice.
