I got the unit yesterday and spent several hours this afternoon to find my way around the on-board editing (which works fine so far, Helix sits on a chair in front of me) and tweaking a few sounds. that is working fine so far and I begin to understand it's archicture - having used successive BOSS ME/GT models over the last 20 years ! They didn't come with editing software either, at least not in the earlier days .... my big BUT at this moment is the apparent incompatability with Apple's El Capitan software : the Helix App does not recognize the unit plugged into my iMac and I was only able to upload the new firmware after re-booting my computer like 3 times !!!! I'm convinced that I made the right choice with the Helix (been looking hard at FX8) regarding it's performance as a tool on stage but I sincerely hope that the guys in the lab will deliver soon so that I can build /prepare /store/ organize my sounds in a likewise professional manner ... may the FORCE be with you !
