It’s a secret - you don’t know until you open the box and plug in. Depends what shelf, in what warehouse, it came from. Actually, every unit ships with Firmware 3.50, you just download it and install. It doesn’t matter where you are in the world - everyone can access it - simple really. If he’s not in a situation where he can update, then he is probably in a situation where he can’t play with it! Imagine if he did buy a unit that had 3.5 installed and those sneaky people at Line 6 released a new version of the Firmware, which is another thing us mere mortals don’t know until it drops. “Whenever I'm about to do something, I think, "Would an idiot do that?"

Perhaps he can have someone in the US buy it, update it if needed, and then ship it wherever he's stationed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, and that's likely what'll happen just to play it safe. Hard to gauge how many units were already sitting in warehouses when 3.5 rolled out, and since the Helix is hardly new i'm guessing it's a fair amount the more i think about it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
