modelation Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Hi, I'm new to this forum. Just bought a Helix rack and floor controller to replace my Axe-FX. I found that there are a lot of tedious patch editing I need to do such as moving foot switches around or setting up scenes etc. I wanted to do this on my laptop while watching TV in another room away from where my Helix is connected to my iMac. I found a tool on-line that acts as a USB server on my iMac and allows me to run the Helix editor on my Windows laptop in another room acting as a USB client: https://www.virtualhere.com/ So far it works great across my home wifi network as long as the iMac does not go to sleep while editing. Hope you may find this useful. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything seems to work just fine, the client reports a successful connection to my Helix LT but the HX Edit App doesn´t connect. Any advise for me?

Heavyville Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 I'd just move the TV. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thark Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 Better yet, don’t watch TV. Like Frank Zappa said, it oozes slime. Edit: I believe that he also said “Shut up ‘n play yer guitar”. :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
