The two common usage issues seen with Helix Native are:
- After a full Helix Native license is authorized, Helix Native is in Trial Mode when opened within a DAW.
- Helix Native is crashing when attempting to open on an audio track within a DAW.
What has helped many users in either situation is the following:
- Disable WiFi
- Launch your DAW
- Insert Helix Native on a track. The login page should pop up.
- Turn on WiFi.
- When you sign in, Native gets reauthorized.
CPU usage:
Another common issue that may be noticed on some systems, is Helix Native's CPU usage reading higher percentage than what would be expected.
Helix Native is a CPU intensive plug-in, some of our systems show readings between 27-30%, the actual usage meter will vary from system to system.
Increasing the H/W playback buffer size, in your DAWs settings that can reduce CPU to a degree.
