![]() ![]() Having spent a couple of decades in software development for PC's one of the most prominent issues I've encountered over that time is when people underestimate the size of the platform necessary for certain types of advanced applications. ![]() Granted a bit of OS Platform programming, but they do have Android software for many of their other contemporary product lines (Amplifi, Spider V, etc.) And, I'm not even expecting the HELIX Editor to be ported to Android tablets, but it certainly would be nice! :) ![]() It would merely take Line 6 to enable the Updater to run under Android. The tablet accepts very large capacity memory cards and works fine with flash drives, etc. There is no reason why this could not accomplish handling updating of the HELIX Firmare and other file management tasks with the Helix. I used a friend's Surface Pro 4 several weeks ago to update my Helix's firmware, and although we got through the process in about 5 minutes without any problems, the Helix software on the Surface Pro 4's display did not make good use of the screen size nor scale properly.įor the past 2.5 years, I've been using a Samsung 12.2 Android Tablet, and it works very well for a great many tasks, including USB OTG (On The Go) for a variety of appliations and external devices. Once those have been released, I'll be looking for a touchscreen device (tablets, 2 in 1, laptops). From what I saw last week at NAMM, the vastly improved Graphic User Interfaces they will share are far superior to the existing Helix software. The revised Helix Editor and new Helix Native progams are anticipated this Spring. ![]()
