While everyone will have their own opinion on this minimalist approach, I personally grew to prefer it to my other amp simulations pretty quickly - having consistent and easy to understand controls across a wide range of different effects units within Helix Native makes the plugin easier to use than many of its competitors. Once authorized, the Helix Native GUI is markedly different from those of many competing amp simulations unlike almost every competitor on the market I can think of, there’s no large 3D renderings of modeled amps or stomp boxes to be found anywhere - just a simple and clean preset/impulse response browser, an effect editor, and a large pane which lets you view the signal flow of the active preset. We are always fans of plugins which don’t require a hardware dongle, and we’re pleased to say there’s no iLok or Syncrosoft needed here. A free 15-day trial is available for first time users, or you can authorize an existing purchase of Helix Native via a login to your Line6 account. Installation and authorization are simple and straightforward - download the Helix Native software from the Line6 website, install the software, and run the AU/VST/AAX plugin for the first time.
