Woodinblack 4,828 Posted March 2 (edited) Well, I got a mail about it from Line6 today. It certainly fixes one of my main issues with the Stomp - the lack of buttons. Probably don't need it because I have the FX, but might be something that would be useful for the stick. Interesting to see what the price is. Also it has bumped up the number of blocks to 8 - edit £679 at gak - a bit rich but presumably street price will go down.

The latest update allowed 8 blocks but with no more processing power so any more than the originally intended 6 is often very limited to a few effects that need very little processing power, depending on the rest of the patch. This is exactly the same. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well when you consider a lot of the footswitch options that provide the same amount of options cost around 100-150 and you still have all the midi and exp 1 and 2. But ye I consider the stomp amazing value for money so this XL is firmly meh pricing to me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Line 6 Helix LT with backpack £675 - Effects For Sale - Basschat Yep - I sold my LT for £600 or so, and if you want the facilities and have the space it is a winner. Too big for me though. Bigger than the HX FX is a no from me. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
