Helix 3.2 when?

Cakewalk by Bandlab here too.
Program Change doesn't work, but other CC controller assignments are working correctly.
I'm not sure if program change worked on 3.15?

Well, I'm glad it's not just me.

Mine just freezes completely, can't even get into native to do a backup like DI suggested in the Native release notes. It's just launches in a frozen state. In my setup I use my Helix LT as audio interface/sound card so that may be exacerbating things. Guess I'll have to go back to 3.15 unti I figure out how to fix it. Dang :mad:

Edit: I disconnected the usb connection to the Helix LT and the DAW works as expected. So I'm pretty certain this is a 3.500 erm, feature. I'm in the process of rolling back to 3.15, will report back how that goes.

Hahahah I did this last night and considered grabbing one at GC today, but know that if I go there, I’ll walk out with a Marshall Origin head. I think I’m going to try the Helix plug-in later today, I’ve never played with any of the Helix stuff at all, my curiosity is piqued.
 
My Cakewalk issues are weird. I hadn't used it in a few months, but prior it was working fine. Now suddenly the transport Start/Stop button, which is the spacebar, crashes the app. Will do a new test this weekend without the Helix plugin and see if it's related or not.

Hard to beat the plugin trial for checking out the basics.

That's basically the same thing that is happening to me. I pulled the usb cable from my LT and the DAW worked fine. I happened to be in a project without an instance of Native so I don't think it is a native thing. My cakewalk was working fine yesterday afternoon prior to the 3.50 update to the hardware.

Yup, fired up the Axe Fx and that helped. I still think the stomp might be the way to go

Just run the Helix into an Origin combo. Done.

:rofl

I think I’ll avoid guitar shops this weekend so I don’t stumble across a Stomp and buy one out of 3.5 curiosity.

Okay, this is not good at all. Rolled back to 3.15 and the problem persists, so the 3.50 update changed/broke something the reverting back did not correct. DAW still works with the hardware device set to be my internal sound card, but is dead as soon as I touch the transport with Helix LT connected. So I have to change my response to 3.50 to a "thumbs-down". I've got ongoing projects that are now dead in the water. Ugh!

Is your home studio dependent on it like that guy with his FM3?
 
Hmm, I went to download the trial and it just takes me to this page-

Ok, now I can't load a screenshot.....I'm just going to go play my guitar for a bit, every piece of technology I've touched in the last 5 minutes said "F*ck you, Drew! You're over covid so f*ck you now!"

The site is saying there is no available software to download, regardless of what I put in the dropbox down menus.

Yep, as we are often encouraged to do, I logged my first ever L6 support ticket this morning. Not real hopeful though, I don't think there's enough of us Cakewalk users around the L6 community for this to get on their radar screen. At least I was able to get it working with 3.15 again. I had to reinstall the driver after rolling back to 3.15 (initially had the same issue).

Which is weird because they are in fact just IRs like any other IR.

I think it's because they are the same cabs and speakers (and microphones I guess)

Anyway, I've spent some more time with them and is really easy to get satisfying sounds.
The delay control (with dual cabs used in mono) is very useful if you look for a little phasey sound. I like that.
