CaliB Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 Hi all. I looked through the forums and didn't see this topic so hopefully someone can help. I'm trying to download and launch Helix Native on the free trial I have. I went t the download page and downloaded the software. The program downloads and installs but the computer doesn't open it. I'm running a Surface Pro I bought a couple years ago. It has Windows 10 Pro. I can open the Pilots Guide but the program doesn't show up in the menu. I can find in the explorer window but it will not launch. Any ideas? Computer isn't compatible? Thanks for any help. Gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil_m Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 You need to have a DAW or at least a VST loader to run Native. It’s a plug-in only, not a stand-alone application. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm new to this and so far it's painful figuring it out. I downloaded a couple DAW packages and am still struggling to get the plug in to work. I'll look through that site.

CaliB Posted November 18, 2018 Author Share Posted November 18, 2018 I was able to get it going after downloading Reaper. Just have to figure out how to use it.... LOL! Thanks for the help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
