The actual processing through the blocks adds a very tiny amount of additional latency, like less than 0.5ms. As you see from Elantric s post above, going through an actual patch (which I believe was a factory preset with not just an amp and cab model) gave 2.14ms. I mean, Im not saying that that additional 2.5ms latency is going to be a dealbreaker for people.

This isnt some gimped specialized DSP, its a small computer that can run Linux.

What are you on about, latency on the Headrush is about 5ms and virtually identical to the Helix.

How are you asserting that your own false information is correct and my CORRECT info is simply not true OOOOHHHHH youre a Line 6 Expert User GOTCHA.

So now that title is synonomous with not knowing what youre talking about and being a fanboi Im glad someone already responded and saved me the trouble.

Now, if youre comparing the Stomp to the Gigboard, the Gigboard May edge the Stomps single processor out on performance, but the Stomp is also like the third of the size.

Also 5ms is pretty horrible latency through a digital pedal nowadays.

The throughput latency in the Helix is less than 2ms (like 1.8ms).

I mean if you want to quibble with the fact that I said under 2ms, and he measured 2.14ms, go ahead.

I should clarify that the 1.8ms is the latency with everything bypassed.

Kemper constant latency locks it at 4.9ms because thats a worst case scenario on a FULL rig with DSP heavy FX.

But yeah. the Kemper is obsolete though right.

And you can definitely compare throughput on both processors, but thats irrelevant because you cant compare how the CODE uses it.

They may be good enough for you.

People comparing Headrush and Helix amp models to older modelling devices need to re-evaluate their method lol.
