Good but way to expensive
It’s a great and kinda necessary companion to the Helix Rack but compared to the Helix floor the build quality is a bit lacking.
The sides are made out of plastic and the top display is rather dim. Furthermore it is a display that is highly dependent on the right viewing angle.
For what it does it is more than adequate but for that kind of money I expect that at least the finish on the top is well done and there are no plastic parts or cheap displays .
Above and below each button are some sort of marks in the metal which leaves the device looking cheaper than it is.
Overall it works very well but is way to expensive.

If You Have The Rack, This Is Worth Adding
I got the Helix Rack from Thomann, and got the floor controller and case in their well-priced bundle pack. The Line6 Helix Rack is an excellent product, and the Controller is a great addition.
The scribble strips and display are easy to read at all light levels, the footswitches are nicely tactile, and the whole unit has a reassuring build quality without feeling like it's been weighed down with lead. One feature that I really love is that there's no need for an extra power supply for the Controller, as both power and signal are carried by the supplied Cat 5 Ethernet cable. There are also sockets for fitting additional effects and expression pedals (try Mission Engineering's pedal designed especially for the Helix).
For a live setup, no power cable(s) need to be run to the stage, no need to check/replace batteries for your pedals. Everything is much neater (and lighter!).
If you don't have the Rack sitting within arm's reach at all times, you really should add this to your setup.

Excelente, solo un pero
Lo único mejorable es el formato del afinador, que pudiera haberse pensado en una solución dada al HX Effects.

Good companion for Helix Rack
Very robust, clearly laid out, scribble strip script easy to read, decent-ish tuner display. Adds a lot of functionality to Helix Rack.

Indispensable addition to Helix Rack
Tried the Helix Rack with a standard midi-controller, worked fine but this is on a hole other level. No more hassle with midi and audio-cables in front, 1 ethernet cable and go! Very sturdy, not to big, lots of features. Only downside: no integrated expression pedal.

If you have Helix Rack, this is a must.
Long cable, great control, visible lights, LCD clear, easy to use.
Easy to see and navigate, visible guitar tuner.

perfect multi effect
I have been using a Boss Gt1000 for the past 3 years, and this new helix just drive me insane because of the detailed vivid control with the guitar tone. It pairs fantastically with my Jackson guitar

If you have the rack, you need this
No brainier! And so well constructed...solid, tough and superbly 'sorted' for it's use.

Ground control to Major Helix
Sturdy, easy to see the scribble strips. A must for the Helix rack. And the button presses feel smooth and positive. Great stuff!
