This issue has been a problem for way too long. For me, the only real way to work on patches is with HXEdit - working on the board itself is painful. While I was forgiving of delays in getting their drivers up to date, it is clear that Line 6 simply does not value their customer's security and for some where they don't have the ability to turn off security, basic usability. If you're going to make a "high-tech" product there are basic expectations and those are not being met. Currently I keep a laptop which isn't used on the network for interfacing to the Helix, but that is a stupid (although safe and viable) solution. I'm tired of waiting, and that means that it's time for me to look at alternatives to Line 6. And for me to warn others in the music community of what they will face if they look to Helix. Fractal, here I come....
