Line6 Helix Stadium Floor Guitar Multi-effect
The streamlined Helix Stadium Floor amp and effects processor may be thought of as a performance workstation, given its high-resolution 8" touch screen, ability to morph between ultra-authentic and idealized amp sounds with a single control, 8-channel audio interface, versatile Matrix cue mixer, Proxy amp, cab, and effect cloning, and Showcase™ automation and playback engine. Showcase enables it to serve as the centerpiece of an entire stage setup—including automatically recalling presets and snapshots, controlling loopers and software, and using MIDI to control pedals, keyboards and synths, video, and even lighting. Bluetooth® and Wi-Fi control are also supported.
Helix Stadium Floor offers extensive connectivity, including various analog and digital audio inputs and outputs, MIDI (DIN and USB), multipurpose Control jacks, and a proprietary Nexus™ port for use with the optional Expand D10 unit and future peripherals. The Expand D10 provides Variax®, L6 LINK™, 8-channel optical, and other connectors. Multiple external footswitches and expression pedals, such as the optional EX2™, may also be used.
Whether you are a current Helix owner seeking to further your sonic adventure (your Helix/HX® presets can be loaded into Helix Stadium), or you are considering upgrading from another modeler, or even if you are a traditional amp and effects player intrigued by the convenience and nearly unlimited tone-crafting possibilities offered by multi-effects—Helix Stadium Floor can help you realize your musical vision.

Agoura modeling establishes a new benchmark for authentic sound when modeling physical amplifiers—from tube and transformer behavior to dynamic interaction with speakers and cabs—while also greatly increasing the accuracy of how amps respond to your playing dynamics, so they feel as authentic as they sound. And should you prefer your amp tones to be more polished, the new Hype feature enables you to morph between ultra-authentic and idealized sounds using a single control. Plus! Proxy with cloud-based processing enables you to capture the sound of your own amplifiers, cabinets, and effects.
INTERACTIVE INTERFACE
At the heart of the sophisticated yet intuitive user interface is a high-resolution 8" touch screen that works in tandem with the 11 knobs, 13 buttons, and 12 footswitches to create one of the most ergonomic, intuitive, and inspiring user interfaces available. Its many features include Focus View with contextual parameter control, Preset Audition audio clips, and explanatory information text for most parameters.
SHOWCASE
Showcase is a live automation engine that empowers Helix Stadium Floor to control a wide range of parameters and functions, whether you are jamming in your basement or automating every aspect of a sophisticated stage setup—from onboard preset and snapshot recall to MIDI remote control of external devices to playing up to eight internal stereo audio tracks to automating lighting and video rigs—all while tempo syncing everything. It’s like having a team of techs at your feet, helping you transform smaller venue gigs and livestreams into buzzworthy events.
EXTENSIVE CONNECTIVITY
Helix Stadium Floor provides an extensive array of analog and digital inputs and outputs, including Instrument and Microphone inputs, XLR and 1/4" analog outputs, a Phones output, two send/return jacks, two multipurpose dual Control jacks, and S/PDIF digital I/O. There are also DIN and USB MIDI connectors, a USB A port, and a proprietary Nexus port for use with the optional Expand D10 and future peripherals. Multiple external footswitches and expression pedals, such as the optional EX2, are supported.
OPTIONAL EXPANSION
The optional Expand D10 greatly increases the flexibility of Helix Stadium Floor. Connect Variax modeling guitars using VDI and Powercab® 112+/212+ active guitar speaker systems using L6 LINK. It also expands the ways in which Helix Stadium Floor may be used with audio interfaces, digital mixers, multi-connector breakout boxes, and other devices via 8-channel optical out. The optional EX2 expression pedal/toe switch perfectly complements Helix Stadium Floor both functionally and aesthetically.
FUTURE READY
Although Helix Family products have been continuously expanded, updated, and improved since they were introduced, Helix was not originally designed for that purpose. The architecture of Helix Stadium Family products, however, has been designed from the very beginning to provide a foundation for developing exciting new tools that help members of the Line 6 community realize their musical visions.
