VirtualGuitars Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 You can download the Line 6 licensing tool and de-authorize the old one. It’s also worth noting that you can license it on up to five systems. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rsvette12 Posted February 22, 2018 Author Share Posted February 22, 2018 The Line 6 licensing tools is a standalone application. Yes thank you used it with older line 6 stuff was not aware it was still being used for Helix products Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsvette12 Posted February 24, 2018 Author Share Posted February 24, 2018 The Line 6 licensing tools is a standalone application. Just as I thought here is LIne6 reply - hope it helps others Hi Richard, You are correct. Within the Helix Native software you may navigate to the setting menu using the "cog wheel" to de authorize the computer associated with your Helix Native License. This will prevent you from losing one of your authorizations. Kody Line 6 Support Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks You can get your helix running on your backup computer just loose one authorization whatever that means I mean you did buy it anyway you have 5 authorizations so you loose one no big deal just unauthorized it next time on a working computer, because your computer crashed you dont have a choice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rsvette12 Posted February 25, 2018 Author Share Posted February 25, 2018 You download Helix Native from here then load it into your daw then authorize it from inside daw when you launch helix native on a track layer in Helix software is a round wheel down the bottom left side click that and authorize there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsvette12 Posted February 25, 2018 Author Share Posted February 25, 2018 Helix Floor, Helix Native is more money at a discount if you own a floor - having a sale rgiht now also 30% off suggest you get it right away going to run out otherwise its 99$ I think for floor unit owners - its awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aod60 Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 I need to install a Helix software of some type onto my laptop first don't I before I buy and add native? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsvette12 Posted February 25, 2018 Author Share Posted February 25, 2018 I need to install a Helix software of some type onto my laptop first don't I before I buy and add native? No you can download it right now and trial it for quite a bit of time 10 days or more cant remember, then you can buy it actually right in Helix if you want while in your daw there is a button to purchase now - I bought mine from sweetwater but buying direct from Line6 would be easier also you have floor unit so I would just buy from Line6 as they know who you are and the discount you should get Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aod60 Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Ok thanks, but what software do I need to download so I can use my helix? 2.20? 2.21? 2.3, not sure what to download on computer now to be able to use and edit Helix floor unit.

rsvette12 Posted February 25, 2018 Author Share Posted February 25, 2018 You go here https://line6.com/software/ under all software pull down pick Helix Native and to the right your operating system - then hit go button 1.5 Helix Native shows up - scroll down and click get download - thats it good to go you can install it tell your daw where the Helix vst is (make a sound track layer like for your guitar then load the helix vst and the helix menu will show up - everything you need to do is right there or you could just go to line6 shop and buy it - it will tell you how much it is put in that sale code to get discount Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsvette12 Posted February 25, 2018 Author Share Posted February 25, 2018 Remember Helix Native has nothing to do with your floor board to different products - hence the different versions 1.5 vs your 2.5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsvette12 Posted February 25, 2018 Author Share Posted February 25, 2018 Ok thanks, but what software do I need to download so I can use my helix? 2.20? 2.21? 2.3, not sure what to download on computer now to be able to use and edit Helix floor unit. Keep in mind helix Native is limited right now on midi control - update is coming for that - right now your floor will work great with pedals - Native not so easy until full support is added Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aod60 Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 So you are saying that the Native is NOW the editor? You no longer download the 2.2 version on to ur laptop with the editor in it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsvette12 Posted February 25, 2018 Author Share Posted February 25, 2018 So you are saying that the Native is NOW the editor? You no longer download the 2.2 version on to ur laptop with the editor in it? No Native is a different program it does not use the floor unit (its standalone) - a less expensive way of having helix if you dont want to pay for an expensive floor unit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aod60 Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Well that's useless to me. I have the floor unit and am trying to get my laptop to connect to it. Thanks for the education on the native. Need education on the helix computer software though. Anyone else out here that can help me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
