Nos402 Posted 14 hours ago Share Posted 14 hours ago At the moment when you switch presets, there is silence for a brief moment while switching. Not a big deal to me as I only really use one preset per song, but I imagine this could be a problem for some folks. I'm just wondering if that's something that might come in the future, or if it's just beyond the capabilities of the Stadium due to processing power and such!

stuming Posted 8 hours ago Share Posted 8 hours ago ... on the Helix you could enable reverb and delay tails to "eliminate" the silence between presets. But you sacrificed the second line of blocks in all your presets to ensure there was enough processing power to handle these tails and switch in the new preset. I haven't got my Stadium yet (2 hours to go) but I'm assuming something similar will be available to enable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverhead Posted 6 hours ago Share Posted 6 hours ago A brief audio gap is unavoidable as a new preset is loaded using a single DSP processor. This isn’t just a Helix or Line 6 issue; it’s a technical reality. It takes a few ms to load new data into one fixed memory space and all computers/processors experience it. Helix is able to avoid this beause it is a dual processor device. Line 6 has implemented a feature called Preset Spillover in Helix that eliminates the gap. However, it’s costly from a DSP perspective. It requires that a user sacrifice 50% of DSP capacity - one of the two processors and the dual-path preset structure. When this feature is enabled a new preset is loaded into the unused processor/path while the used processor continues to operate. Hence no gap. The Preset Spillover feature is not (yet?) implemented in Helix Stadium. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
