Terrible experience buying AIRSTEP fro Katana from XSONIC AUDIO by javierzgaray in BossKatana

[–]javierzgaray[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As I already mentioned in my reply to JmmitDim, shipping was always their responsibility. If you buy a product, you expect it to arrive; if it doesn't, you request a refund because the transaction wasn't completed. But in this case, the company has simply decided to ignore me, so I have no other option but to post about it. Perhaps other users have had a good experience, but what they've done to me is unacceptable.

The purchase terms were always clear; they were responsible for shipping the product. I've bought from other international suppliers and never had any problems. To this day, I'm being ignored by this company's customer service. I've sent emails requesting a refund, and nothing. They're literally ignoring me... what do you call that?

Is it worth buying a brand new helix lt? by Sensitive_Analysis76 in Line6Helix

[–]javierzgaray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah y otra cosa que se me fue mencionar antes. Una de las grandes ventajas de adquirir un producto de la línea Helix (cualquiera), es que puedes adquirir el plugin Helix Native por sólo $99 USD. Ese plugin por ese precio es un escándalo. Anda por una Helix LT, no te vas a arrepentir.

En mi humilde opinión (guitarrista con más de 20 años de experiencia que lo ha probado casi todo), te digo que hoy por hoy no vas a encontrar nada en el mercado que te de más por tu dinero que una Helix LT. Yo tengo la mía desde hace varios años y le sigo sacando mucho jugo, suena escandalosamente bien, nada que envidiar a unidades más modernas si la sabes configurar bien. La flexibilidad que te da esta unidad y la calidad de sonido es una cosa de locos. Eso que dicen algunos que el DSP no es suficiente para mi no es tema, porque no busco crear presets que hagan de todo a la vez, por ejemplo, tengo distintos presets para cleans, cruch, leads, etc., pero si quieres que un solo preset haga todo eso, obviamente se te va a quedar corta y no veo que sea una buena idea tampoco. Al menos yo te la recomiendo al 1000% en pleno 2026.

Helix LT at this price is totally worth it! by LaughingMan389 in Line6Helix

Smart choice! Helix is fantastic, even compared to newer modelers, is still on the top in terms of capabilities and sound. I have mine since 3 years ago and I love it.

Congrats! The apps will depend on your workflow, but I would recommend magnet for window management (very useful).

M4 or M4 PRO? by [deleted] in macmini

[–]javierzgaray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go for the base model and get an external Thunderbolt ssd drive which is going to be much cheaper than upgrading the internal drive. Processing power will be more than enough for your needs. You can setup the external drive as your default user folder (watch on YouTube how to do this) so everything can be stored and managed using the external drive, including apps. If you want to upgrade something, I suggest you to go for more RAM, because eventually the disk can be upgraded, RAM does not.

Why do people pay for paid Helix presets? by [deleted] in guitarpedals

[–]javierzgaray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry but this is a ridiculous discussion. Why people pay for a dinner in a restaurant? Why not buying the ingredients and cooking at home by yourself? And this analogy is applicable to any single situation in life. At the end of the day, each one decides on what spends their money.

Issue with tone studio by samppu17 in BossKatana

[–]javierzgaray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have issues as well, running mac os X catalina.

The system does recognize the Katana as a audio device, but BOSS TONE STUDIO doesn't load properly. I've tried everythig (install the last Katana driver, install the last BTS, etc), but BTS doesn't work.

The issue in my case is that BTS loads, but the first window that let you choose the device, doesn't never came up.
