Audjoo Helix on Receptor - sort of working

[gregh1]

I have tried Audjoo Helix (2008-11-25) on Receptor.

I installed first on PC WinXP, then copied the folder over to Receptor's Unsupported Plugins folder.

Helix installed without error.

It instantiated with a dialog box telling me "No licence file found". I had to click the OK button to proceed.

The GUI would not show, although there was another small dialog mentioning that the trial version would not save.

The plugin did play sounds, but since the GUI was invisible, it was difficult to change patches. I had to guess where the patch change arrows were and click "in the dark". I could not figure out how to change patches via MIDI, although it appears that every other element of the GUI is controllable and available in Receptor's faceless mode. (Note: a couple of the parameters have spelling errors - e.g. AQx instead of SQx and ARMx instead of ARPx.)

So, it would seem that the invisible GUI and lack of MIDI program change support are the only things holding this plugin back from working on Receptor.

Zombie thread alert!

Can anyone confirm whether the Helix GUI works on the new OS? (It still does not on 1.9)
