This latest 3.50 update for the Helix Floor*, Helix Rack *, Helix LT *, Helix Native, HX Stomp * and HX Stomp XL * brings a completely overhauled Cab Engine to the Helix family, along with a set of new cabs to play with.

New Cabs in 3.50:
Single—One new cab
Dual—Two new cabs
Legacy Single—One older Hybrid cab
Legacy Dual—Two older Hybrid cabs

Pan (Dual only)—Moves the signal left or right across the stereo sound field.
Delay (Dual only)—Although the new cabs in 3.50 perfectly line up with one another, there may be situations where you want to delay one side very slightly, to perhaps impart a bit of phase incoherence or at higher values, to increase the apparent stereo spread. A little goes a long way here

New Features in 3.50
Line 6 has renamed the Impulse Response > Mono subcategory as “Single” and they have added a new subcategory Dual. The IR > Dual block can accommodate two 1024-point IRs. These can be panned independently and users can flip the polarity of either one and even slightly delay one vs. the other to account for any phase inconsistencies between different IR developers.
New Cabs and IRs now use 66-80% Less DSP
There are also a number of bug fixes within this latest update.
