DunedinDragon Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 If all you want is sound from Guitar Pro you should be able to do that through a USB connection. Is that what you're trying to do? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PierM Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 Man, you need to provide some better description if you want some help. :) If you are using Helix as audio interface, there is nothing different than any other audio interface. Too much latency? Try a smaller buffer size, or an higher sample rate. Clicks and pops? Optimize your sistem for real time audio. Dont use USB hubs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, Posting the same question twice is not necessary - please don’t cross post as it will become even more complicated than it already is! You stated your Mac model and year, but not the OS you’re running - AFAIK, the newest fully functional operating system for that model would be High Sierra - Mac OS 10.13.x. However, you should still be able to configure your MBP to use the Helix as the default audio interface. This can be done using the Audio/MIDI Setup app in the Utilities folder on your computer. The Helix would also need to be selected as the audio interface to be used in Guitar Pro 6, or your DAW - (Logic Pro X, GarageBand, etc.). Details on using the Helix as audio interface over USB is fully documented in the Helix Owner’s Manual on page 68. https://line6.com/data/6/0a020a3f041b611d61cac763b/application/pdf/Helix 3.0 Owner's Manual - Rev F - English .pdf Hope this helps/makes sense. Oh, yeah - “Yes but it doesn’t work it makes gp6 run real slow”. Have you considered updating you almost 12 year old computer and a Tablature Editor released in 2010?

dvenom77 Posted January 27, 2023 Author Share Posted January 27, 2023 Thanks again for the replies it got me thinking maybe I'm missing a driver. So I went to downloads on line 6 download page and tried installing the latest driver and it kicked me out saying my osx is non compatible. This one worked for me problem solved Line 6 Helix Driver2 Version 1.1.0 Released 3/16/21 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
