Another good news: February is the shortest month ;) Again: I prefer stable stuff, thanks for working on it :wub:

His first thread ended gaga already... http://line6.com/support/topic/25715-can-the-helix-replicate-this-tone/ Troll yourself, poor boy itsslash...

...you were using the *S* word...

The modeling tones? Install the latest firmware (again): http://de.line6.com/software/readeula.html?rid=6024

? ? ?

Nothing personal, eyh?! And thanks for compliments ;) Let me tell you my thoughts with some letters then: You wrote that "Line 6 bleeding as much money as they can out of folks" and "There is absolutely nothing of worth that can be done with the software that cant be done with the hardware". You're knowing this already? Wow. Guess that you fear to pay $99. But the good news is: You don't have to. Helix Editor remains free, for example. Sometimes pictures say more than words - that's all. And if you're chilled , snicker to yourself again and post a snapshot :P

...just wait and see...

...some folks stay as hunter-gatherers but some arrived in the 21st century (mental actually) indeed ;) ...just my 2 cents...

Again:

Prayers heard :D :lol: :D :lol: :D ...plus Helix native - what a springtime...

DI posted: HELIX NATIVE FAQ Wait… Is this Helix in a plugin? Yes. Helix Native features all the amp, cab, and effects models of Helix and Helix Rack, as well as IR loading. Its presets are fully compatible with Helix and Helix Rack hardware so you can effortlessly transfer your tones from the studio to the stage and back again. What plug-in formats are supported? Mac and Windows, 64-bit VST3/VST2, AU, and AAX. Will it work with iLok? Helix Native is authorized through Line 6 License Manager which can be downloaded from www.line6.com/software. There is no licensing available through iLok. How many computers can I install Helix Native on with a single license? Licensing is tied to your Line 6 account and up to four computers can share a single license. Is there a demo version to try out? A free trial will be made available and is fully functional for 15 days. How many parameters can be automated? Parameters and/or block bypass states can be automated by assigning them to automation channels in your DAW (up to 16 per instance). I don’t get it. Why would you offer all that Helix goodness in a plug-in? Because it’s the right thing to do. Helix is all about elegant solutions to musicians’ problems, and the studio-to-stage-and-back promise was too big of a deal not to pursue. Have you ever tried to nail every guitar tone on your record for an upcoming tour? With Helix Native, potentially weeks of work could be condensed down to a minute or two. What does Helix Native cost? Helix Native sells for $399 USD. However, to hammer home the whole studio-to-stage thing, we’re offering a discount to registered Helix and Helix Rack owners; they can purchase Helix Native for $99. Existing POD Farm customers are eligible for certain discounts as well (TBD). When and where? Helix Native will be available on the Line 6 store (https://store.line6.com) in Spring of 2017

...curious if Helix Hardware owners will get a special discount :rolleyes: ...for using it as an offline editor e.g. ...

Just found this: http://www.guitarworld.com/gear-news-electrics/namm-2017-line-6-unveils-limited-edition-variax-shuriken-guitar/30540 I know, not a JTV... ;) EDIT: In case you haven't heard of it: Helix FW 2.20 will deliver Variax Workbench HD Support! http://line6.com/support/topic/25218-preview%E2%80%94helix-fw-220-the-get-low-update/

Is or was your Helix USB connected (e.g. as a sound card)?

Still the only important things are the colored LEDs, anyway...

Hip hip hooray! But I expect

Interesting stuff?! [...]

(to be continued obviously...)

...anything new? [...] (...nope...)

Who is nervous?

...and finally the Variax challenger: https://youtu.be/Uh6ghvn7gko

If Helix had a wireless connection, I would not have bought it! Helix is professional gear - and there are other products out there for bluetooth fans ;)

...this soundguy may be dumb, but I wouldn't play childish games with him, anyway. And again (page 37 of the manual): 25. XLR OUT [...] IMPORTANT! Never connect the Helix device's XLR outputs to a device whose XLR inputs have 48V phantom power enabled!

http://line6.com/support/topic/18284-latest-helix-firmware-212/ Thank you, L6 crew - and a Happy New Year to everyone (sorry, quite late :D )!!!

Yep. Because they believe that there wasn't anything new since 1977 :P
