soundog Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 Well, there's not much mention of this on IdeaScale (although if you search hard you can find some mentions), so I'll bring it up here. I voted it up where ever I could find a mention. The Helix family (I'm mainly a Stomp user) only supports "absolute" CC parameter control. So if you use a rotary encoder to control Helix, if you try to edit a parameter by turning the knob, the Helix value will jump noticeably from the current setting to the value represented by the physical position of the encoder. That stinks!! With support for "relative" control, a slight turn of the knob will move the parameter up or down in the right direction from its current location, with no jump in the value. That's great!! Interestingly, the Line 6 M13 Stompbox Modeler supports relative modes! C'mon Helix, you can do it too!! Helix has such robust MIDI support, I'm really surprised it doesn't support Relative modes. Its supported by lots of hardware, and its supported as a standard in most DAWs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
