Look out Helix! It's a great time to be a guitarist.

Looks like it will be way cheaper too, 899 pounds!

That looks cool. I look down at my messy pedalboard, with leads and patches all over the damn place, and just think... I should get something like that.

Keen to see how it pans out as an upgrade to my hd500x...

[shafter]

Nothing will replace the Hd500x.. Long live Line 6 !! lol!!
yeah actually looks ok and im a big fan of the Eleven Rack, so hopefully its good..

This looks cool. If you can disable power amp and cabinet modelling and run it in stereo to a tube power amp and "real" cabinets i will be very interesting.

The gapless preset switching is the winner for me. I struggle to understand why fractal and line 6 say "it cant be done" and they try to get you to use scenes to get around it. Yet Kemper and Atomic and now HeadRush are all doing it.

Also keen to know if the modelling engine has been revamped or if its the same 7+ year old technology used in the original 11R. ?

Wouldn't work for me without a bunch of additional pedals

New pedal models are getting added all the time including P & W style like you use

Theres a long way to go till it hits its limitations, the new slow gear model is awesome

The headrush (and helix for that matter) would make me paranoid about playing live - stumbling drunks and beer spillage etc - and thats just me, worse still with an actual audience. An fcb1010 is much less replacement cost, or midi mouse even.

I read that a lot in US posts too. I do hate (HATE!!! ) playing without a stage and especially hate idiots who think they an step onto the stage (be it virtual or otherwise) but in all my gigs Ive never actually had anyone spill a drink onto my floor rigs. (touch wood) I am of course, watching like a hawk if anyone comes near.

Yeah it's the paranoia.... It's only happened once for me, but no major damage done.

I'd need to be able to have it do volume pedal, fuzz, 3 delays, and a reverb as a minimum, plus be able to switch them on and off at will!

its always been a great time to be a guitarist. Tone use to be in the fingers, now people seem to want a computer to get it....

BACK IN MY DAY etc etc.......

you need (NEED!) a Helix!
my main patches have envelope filter, compressor, Klon, Tubescreamer, Pitch, Tape Echo, Phasor, Digital Delay, 3 voice Chorus and Plate Reverb - all switchable at will.....oh and an amp and two cabs and EQ and Room Reverb....(and each patch has 4 snapshots with 30 odd variables...)
