It is possible to extend the functionality of the

ule, a High Resolution Audio USB soundcard etc.
To install a HELIX Extension Card it is necessary
to remove the side panel of the V EIGHTEEN DSP
and replace it by the new side panel that comes
with the HEC module.
Attention: Install the HEC module only in the
