Realistic Responsiveness with All-New Agoura™ Modeling Methodology
This isn’t just an update on the same ol’ Helix modeling tech you’ve known and loved for over 10 years. Agoura™ is an entirely new method to capturing models and all the minute, tiny, details that affect the tone and responsiveness of real-life tube amplifiers. Line 6 dug deep to identify and replicate every subtle nuance of tube amps, from the obvious like tone stacks and gain stages all the way down to transformer behavior and dynamic interaction between speakers and cabs. You won’t be able to tell the difference between the Helix Stadium XL Floor and the Bonafide vintage amp that belongs in a museum.
In addition to the all-new Agoura™ modeling methodology, Line 6 also threw in tons of new sounds to take realism to new levels. Amps aren’t always perfect. And if your sound requires all those lovely imperfections, use the Hype feature to add some realistic amp chaos to your sound. Or use the cloud-based Proxy engine to clone the true sound and feel of your personal amps, cabs, and effects with realism that has never been seen before.
Menu Diving Is for Chumps
With this many functions, you might think your first few days with the Line 6 Helix Stadium XL will be filled with menu diving to learn all the ins and outs — while your guitar sits quietly on the stand. But that’s not the case at all with the Stadium XL’s sophisticated yet intuitive user interface that makes it quick and easy to tweak and recall your tones:
8” high-resolution touch screen lets you drag and drop blocks into your signal chain, tweak parameters, and navigate menus with ease.
11 knobs, 13 buttons, 12 footswitches, and highly-precise expression pedal with toe switch really let you “feel” the power.
12 high-contrast 1.7” OLED scribble strips make sure you know exactly what parameters you’re changing — no matter how bad your memory is.
Focus View with contextual parameter control lets you use your finger to dial your tone. Just slide around the screen’s five touchpoints to change parameters quickly and easily.
Looking for a specific amp, cab, or effect? Just type in what you want using the search function and get back to playing.
Not sure what depth, hum, ripple, or bias mean? Hold on a parameter to get an in-depth explanation of what it does for your sound. No more guesswork!
The shortcuts menu is always on the side of the screen, so you can always get to your favorite settings in a hurry.
Showcase live automation system is like having a team of techs ready to handle your equipment. Set preset changes, loops, triggers, and even lighting effects in your favorite backing tracks, and watch your settings change seamlessly as you play. No tapdancing required!
Fidelity AND function — that’s how the Line 6 Helix Stadium XL Floor does!
Ultimate Connectivity
The original Helix had so many connectivity options that it made some players’ heads spin. But the Helix Stadium XL Floor blows it out of the water with even more analog and digital ways to connect to your rig — with twice the ins and outs of its little sibling, the Helix Stadium Floor:
2 variable impedance instrument inputs with 126+ dB range
XLR mic preamp with 128 dB range
S/PDIF in/out
4 effects loops with 120+ dB range
4 external expression pedal inputs
4 external amp control outs
4 drum trigger inputs
Nexus™ port for optional Expand D10 digital I/O and future peripherals
USB-C, USB-A, and removable 32GB microSD storage
Bluetooth and WiFi control for wireless playback and software updates
Compatible with Existing Line 6 Products – Past and Future
It took a while for Line 6 to come out with the next generation of modelers. 10 years to be exact… And that’s why they future-proofed the Helix Stadium XL with continuous expansions, updates, and improvements — backed by the overpowered processing power and internal storage. The Helix Stadium XL is the single biggest leap forward Line 6 has ever taken in the modeling arena, and it’s only the beginning!
But that doesn’t mean they’ve forgotten about the past. The Line 6 Helix Stadium XL Floor is completely compatible with existing Line 6 products. The Nexus™ port paired with the Expand D10 digital I/O lets you connect to Variax® modeling guitars using VDI, along with Powercab® active guitar speaker systems using L6 LINK™. You can also import your existing Helix presets into the Helix Stadium Floor to continue exactly where you left off.
