Your Helix Stadium Is the Only Audio Interface You Need

So you bought a Helix Stadium and now you want to record. Maybe for a church worship set, maybe for your own stuff. Either way, the other audio interface can go back in the cupboard. The Stadium is a full USB-C audio interface. Eight in, eight out, straight into your DAW over one cable. No analog splitting, no second box, no clock sync headaches. I’ve built a Reaper template so you don’t have to wire any of this up yourself. Download it here, open it, and the tracks are already there and routed. The rest of this post is me explaining what each track does, so you’re not blindly trusting a file off the internet.

How To Record the Helix Stadium XL in Streamlabs Without Getting the Dry DI

I recently ran into a fun little problem with the Helix Stadium XL and Streamlabs Desktop. And by fun, I mean the kind of problem where you spend a stupid amount of time wondering why the thing you can hear perfectly fine in your headphones sounds completely wrong in the recording. The Stadium was connected to my Mac over USB-C. Streamlabs could see it. The audio meters were moving. I hit record, played a bit, listened back, and instead of hearing my processed Helix tone, I got the dry DI.
