JLondon Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 I updated my Helix Floor unit to 2.5. There doesn't seem to be an update for the editor yet. Is this correct. The LIne 6 software page says there's nothing new to update when I plug in the parameters for Editor and Windows 10. Regardless, my current editor worked fine with the previous Helix 2.3. Now it doesn't recognize the new amps and pedals and if you try to insert one with the floor unit the editor picks something else and also kinda crashes. Haven't even gotten to Helix Native yet. Website says nothing new there either. Am I dead in the water until LIne 6 updates Editor and Native? Lastly, are both users and Line 6 using the terms "HX" and "Helix" interchangeably? If so - please stop it. To my knowledge they're not the same thing. The new effects unit is the "HX". Everything else is "Helix". And if all software works interchangeably then how the h-- are we supposed to know unless you specify? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marhil Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 New update does not show up on main page of Support / Downloads as of a few minutes ago. See attached screenshot from Line 6 Download page. They still have v2.30 up as latest. The newest version is 2.51... It's showing up for me.

The HX Effects was actually going to be called the Helix FX at one point, but it got changed for, uh, reasons... But HX is the designation Line 6 is using for stuff developed under the Helix platform. As far as the software, they all use the same editor, so that's kind of the point.

iguama2 Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 how long did the update take? I've been hooked up for 20 minutes and not much has happened but when I try to turn off the updater I get a major warning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
