Check out Mixcraft 8. It's relatively inexpensive (the full pro version is currently on sale for $129), it's a windows based product, and really easy to use. There's also a fully functional free trial. I use my Helix floor unit and Helix Native with Mixcraft and they work great!

I've also been having issues with Native crashing in Mixcraft 8 Pro. I opened a support ticket with Acoustica and got a response from them that they were in contact with "the Line 6 lead tester for Helix Native" and that "they have a couple of Mixcraft-specific issues that will be fixed in an upcoming 1.01 update". So I'm hopeful that this will be fixed soon. Just out of curiosity.....is everyone using Native VST3 in Mixcraft? Has anyone tried VST2 to see if it's more stable?

I updated to 2.20/2.21 before purchasing the "big pack", so I don't have experience with previous firmwares. All the tones are great and am enjoying playing with them, just wasn't sure what was going on with the volume pedal.....

I purchased the "big pack" a couple weeks ago and am enjoying the tones a lot, but had a question about the 4 snapshot presets and how the volume pedal is assigned. I saw a previous post about this, but didn't see an answer. All 4 snapshots have the volume pedal assigned to "Exp 1". When on snapshot 1 the expression pedal itself is on "Exp1". But when changing to Snapshots 2-4 the expression pedal changes to "Exp 2". So when changing to snapshots 2-4 the volume pedal no longer works. Hitting the expression pedal toe switch changes it back to "Exp 1" but also bypasses the volume block. This is fixable by changing snapshots 2-4 to Exp 1 and turning the volume block back on, but I'm not sure why it was setup like this, and if changing it would affect anything else. Or.......if I have something set up in my global setting that is causing this.....
