Lone_Poor_Boy Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 The downloads only list 2.90 and I believe I've read of a 2.91 that came out quickly due to issues with 2.90. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rd2rk Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 https://line6.com/software/index.html Search boxes: Helix/All Software/Windows 10 FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS: IMPORTANT! Carefully read and follow the update instructions below. If you don’t — and then run to the forums asking why it’s not working—the interwebs will make fun of you. Updating to 2.91 Helix Floor, Helix Rack, Helix LT, HX Effects, HX Stomp STEP 1 — Updating HX Edit to 2.90 (assuming you haven’t done this already) Log onto line6.com , download, and install HX Edit 2.90: macOS: https://line6.com/software/readeula.html?rid=9678 Windows 7/8/10: https://line6.com/software/readeula.html?rid=9677 STEP 2 — Updating Helix/HX Firmware to 2.91 If you have Helix Rack/Control, turn off Helix Control. Also, shut down all Line 6 software or any programs that use audio, like DAWs, iTunes, Spotify, video games, etc. Connect your Helix/HX device to a Mac or PC via USB (do not use any sort of USB hub, which may include the front USB ports on towers) and turn it on. Launch the new version of HX Edit 2.90 you installed in Step 1 above. If you’re not signed in, click “Check for Updates” in the lower right corner and sign in. If you’re already signed in, a dialog panel appears, indicating an update is available. Click “Update Now.” A window appears, asking you to back up your Helix / HX hardware. Click OK, optionally rename the backup and / or choose a different destination folder, and then click “Create Backup.” IMPORTANT! Note the location where you’ve saved the backup. Continue following the prompts. Once updated, the window reads “Update Complete” and your Helix / HX hardware begins rebuilding its presets; wait for this to complete and click “Back to HX Edit.” From the File pull-down menu, click “Restore from backup…” A dialog appears. Click “Restore Backup” and then “Yes.” Turn your Helix / HX product off and then on again. If you have Helix Control connected to Helix Rack, turn on Helix Control. Helix Rack reads “Helix Control must be updated to work properly.” Press Knob 6 (OK). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverhead Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 HX Edit remains at v2.90 while firmware is now at v2.91. Run HX Edit. You can update firmware from there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lone_Poor_Boy Posted May 17, 2020 Author Share Posted May 17, 2020 LMAO, geeze. I just needed to refresh. I assumed it would have automatically shown the latest version. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
