Hi! I too am having problems with the Glitch Delay. Couldn't quite explained it and just tought to come here check if there's any report. As always you guys are on top of things! Nice thing they acknowlodged the bug so fast. Yay L6!! Let's hope they fix it soon. Cheers!

Right. I just overlooked that the fellow user that mentioned the line 6 driver may be using helix or other L6 hardware as an audio interface... Of course the audio driver of any audio interface may cause crashes with any plugin. I just thought if he's using native he's not using helix hardware so no point checking/updating helix drivers since he's using another interface. But of course he may be using helix hardware.

Hi. Have you installed the new update 3.51. My crashes went away with this new version. No issues so far. Sorry Silverhead but why would a driver affect a VST plugin? Does the driver package include more than just a driver for the hardware?

The crashes were happening only with the VST3 version. Only with the plugin window closed. Only with 3.50, not the previous. I double checked everything. The 3.51 update fixed the problem and it is the released notes. L6 fixed it fast since I reported it very recently!

Ok. Is it an external midi footswitch sending midi to Native? Please report back if its the footswitch causing your crashes. I have an opened ticket with L6. It would be "nice" if someone else has the same problem and has pinpointed the culprit.

There are other reports of Reaper crashing with 3.50 Native. Check the dedicated Native forum. https://line6.com/support/forum/90-helix-native/ I'm having crashes in Reaper also. My Reaper crashes when playing, not when inserting Native. It crashes when Native receives midi input from another track, for snapshot changes or other parameter and only if Native window is visible. If I close the window it doesn't crash. Only happens since 3.50 update. Do you have any midi hardware connected to reaper? Or midi tracks? Is the track where you insert Native receiving any sort of midi instructions? Unrelated to midi, maybe your Windows Security is protecting the folder where the vst or the rest of native is installed. Check if the controlled access folder is activated. Or maybe get rid of any native install you have. And clean the old and new installation folders. Fresh install may solve the problem. Maybe it's a conflict with both versions installed, a VST vs VST3 conflict or some leftovers from the old version still present. Always backup first. Cheers

Also happens in Helix Native. DAW crashes after changing delay in new dual cab. Not sure if happened with mousewheel or draggin the slider. Doesn't crash when clicking or entering manually a delay time.

Maybe a bug with the send and return blocks. Or maybe it's already reported. While building a preset to work with guitar, mic and IEM, I added send blocks for the gtr and mic outputs to connect to FOH. And I also build a separate path for IEM using the input return 1/2. As per viewing an excellent video by Richie Castellano where he goes over a similar preset, I also decided using the sends instead of the 1/4" or the XLR to go to FOH for a few reasons. The bug itself happened when adding a Return 1/2 block after a Send 1 (or 2) block. Doing this I can spare the separate path for the IEM and get the same result. All was good after adding the blocks. Everything worked and had sound from all inputs. After saving, changing presets and going back to the preset it was empty and sounded like just DI. Turned off the Helix (Floor by the way, with the lastest firmware and no other bugs) and when I turned it on there it was. The preset was loaded like it was saved. Changing again presets and going back, empty again. I was able to change the preset and get the same result I wanted by adding the return 1/2 block in path 1 after another send block. All worked and cycling presets did not emptied the preset. More or less the same thing that I did in path 2 but no bug this way. I wasn't able to reproduce consistently the bug. Happened in two existing presets consistently. Happened often when building a preset from scratch. And I was trying now with my other unit, a LT, and happened again. Is this a known bug? Can any of the experts around take a look? Should I open a ticket? I'm attaching a couple of pics of the screen with a simple test I did yesterday on the Floor unit and the preset I was working now on my LT that exibit the same bug when adding the return and send blocks (in this case the mic input was replaced by Variax but the result is the same).

Hi! A bit off topic but related. Why my native plugin appears with its window cropped in Live? I can't resize the window, I can't resize native itself. I only get the left portion of the window so its totally unusable in live for me. Thanks.

Don't follow the light. For everybody that is reporting bugs with the tempo, don't base your argument on the tempo led. As said in other posts the led and the actual tempo run on different hardware clocks and they're like a stopped clock that's right twice a day. I don't believe this issue is something that can be fixed and I believe L6 are aware of this. Use your ears and the reported tempo in the helix for reference and not the led for your tests.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I think the led has always been out of sync with the tempo. I believe someone said to me about a similar issue with the midi tempo receive that the led and the tempo itself work in different clocks in the Helix so they will always be desynced. You have to trust your ears. In my tests way before this tempo bug in 2.90 my delays and modulation were synced either with midi received tempo or tap tempo but the led never was.

Hi people! So there's a bug with the tap tempo and delays in the 2.90 update. And probably a few others. That's quite unfortunate of course but it's L6! They are aware of it. They are fixing it as fast as they can and given the current conditions we are all in I think they deserve some appreciation on their hard work. Yes in normal conditions it's that kind of bug that affects many users but I'm very happy they could release this update with very nice implementations and new effects and a new amp for me to play with in these difficult times. I don't bother if this or other bug somehow slipped through the beta testing. My Helix didn't blow up so all is fine! And by the way this update was one of the smoothest so far for me. So thank you L6 and all the beta testers for your work and stay safe! You deserve some love from all of us!! And stay safe everybody. Go ahead and obsess with the new meters! Cheers

You can create a preset in such a way that you can have one output to XLR and another to 1/4" output and insert a volume pedal block in this parallel path. In the global settings you can make the XLR outputs not affected by the main volume knob. Also in the global settings you can choose which output you want to monitor in the headphones out. You can choose the 1/4" outs here. With the volume pedal assigned to the 1/4" out path you will control the headphones volume and not the XLR outs volume.

Reaper 6.0 is quite new. I already updated mine. If you want to try my method with reaper sending midi data to the helix, any version of reaper will do. The late ones say that have a better latency when working with midi. But I don't notice that.
