357mag Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 I'm thinking strongly of ordering a Helix Rack and trying it out. I have already downloaded the newest drivers. Now I need to download the PC Online Editor. What is the name of it? Do I download Helix Native? Or is it HX Edit? Those are the only two choices.

jgrnfld Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 The editor is HX Edit. Native is a plugin to use with your DAW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really? What would be the point of installing drivers without the hardware? You do realise that to cannot use the Editor software without the hardware being physically connected. I have replied to your other equally odd post. After reading this - I think can smell a Troll in here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
357mag Posted July 24, 2022 Author Share Posted July 24, 2022 Really guy... I am not installing drivers. I am not installing anything. And you are the troll. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codamedia Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 Installing HX Edit is pointless without the Hardware.... you can install it, but it won't load without hardware. Of course, you can download and install the latest version in preparation for your new hardware.... you just can't use it. You can download a trial of Helix Native if you would like to see what you can expect from the Helix family, but Native will require a DAW in order to use it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MusicLaw Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 You can also download and fully explore Helix Native using a free VST Host (should you not have a DAW). With Helix Native's Hardware Compatibility set for Helix Floor/Rack/LT, you will see the actual features and DSP constraints that you might encounter in the actual physical Helix Rack unit. Helix Native is available as a fully functional Free Trial download. Once you purchase a Helix unit, you will be entitled to a significant discount on the price of Helix Native to $99 USD. At times during the year, Line 6 puts Helix Native on sale at an additional discount bringing the price down to about $70 USD. If you like the software, wait until one of those sales to actually buy the software (after the two week trial expires). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
