Helio 10

While it hasn’t published it on its official site, Tecno has sent out the new Camon 17 to retailers in Kenya. You can’t have one yet, but you can pre-order it – here’s what you’ll get if you do.

Helio is a minor character who appeared in Ben 10: Alien Swarm. Taking snaps is just one of the numerous other brilliant features of the Helio S10 camera. Text recognition.

At first glance, it is not a straight upgrade over the Tecno 16. For starters, it has a smaller 6.55” screen, down from 6.8”. It’s still a 720p+ class display (though with 20:9 aspect ratio). The selfie camera (still living in a punch hole) has an 8MP sensor (down from 16MP).

It has a slightly more powerful chipset than the previous generation, a Helio G85. The Mali G52 MC2 GPU runs at a higher clock speed as do the six A55 CPU cores, while the two A75 cores are the same. You get the same 4 GB of RAM, but double the storage is doubled to 128 GB. Also, this one comes with Android 11 and HiOS 7.6 out of the box.

Moving on, the camera on the back now stars a 16MP ultra wide-angle module. Even the Camon 16 Pro and 16 Premier had only an 8MP ultra wide (the vanilla 16 had none). However, the main camera is demoted to a 48MP sensor (down from 64MP on the 16-series). A 2MP helper module rounds off the trio.

The new model has a 5,000mAh battery, same as before, and we’re not seeing any mentions of fast charging. Like its siblings, this is a dual-SIM phone with 4G LTE connectivity.

The Tecno Camon 17 can be found at an online retailer in Kenya (follow the Source link). The store was also kind enough to send us some hands-on photos of the phone:

It will cost KES 22,800 ($210/€175) and if you want one, you can pre-order a unit with a KES 2,000 down payment. For comparison, the Camon 16 is KES 19,400, the 16 Pro is KES 20,500 and the 16 Premier is noticeably more expensive at KES 27,800.

ADVERTISEMENTS

Welcome to the documentation for the Helio project, a free lightweight music sequencer, which runs on the all major desktop and mobile operating systems.

Helio was designed to save me the time of struggling with the MIDI editor, so I could focus more on musical ideas. In this documentation, I’ll also try to save some time and write it down as short and simple as I can.

If you notice that something important is missing, which I’m pretty sure it is, send me an angry email, or create a PR on the Github.

If you’re reading this page in the project’s repository, some generated content will be missing, see the full rendered version at docs.helio.fm.

How to read this

If you’re starting out with Helio, just continue with the Getting Started page to learn the basic concepts of UI navigation, setting up instruments, creating a project, editing and arranging it and saving your work in the version control.

Otherwise, you might find useful the editing tips: the majority of all the nifty tools and hacks will be described there.

Helio

If you’ve already tinkered with Helio for a while, you’ll probably only need the hotkeys section.

Installation

Helio is released as a single portable executable file, where possible, but installers are also available for some systems.In both flavours it has small disk footprint (less than 10 Mb) and should run on most available hardware and platform versions.

Portable vs installer

Installers are provided for Windows and Debian-based Linux distributions. The installer version is only needed, if you want to have the desktop shortcut and the uninstall tool.

With portable version, just download the compressed archive and unzip it to a folder of your choice.

32 or 64 bits

The only practical difference between the two is that the 64-bit version will only be able to host 64-bit plugins, and the 32-bit version will only host 32-bit plugins.

At the moment of writing this, Helio does not support plugin sandboxing or hosting both 32-bit and 64-bit plugins at the same time.

Master build or development build

Master builds are the latest stable versions. You can keep up to date with the latest changes through the release notes. If you’d like to preview the latest features or verify bug fixes, you can install the development build.

Used directories

Helio keeps all files in two directories: one for the project files, and one for the configuration files.

Note that the installer-based versions don’t remove any of these when uninstalling the app. If you want to remove Helio from the system completely, you need to delete them manually.

The configuration directory

All the configuration files are created on the first start under the user application data directory. The directory is a platform-dependent location:

  • Windows: %APPDATA%Helio
  • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Helio
  • Linux: ~/.config/Helio
Helio

settings.helio

This file basically contains all the settings, so if you delete or rename it, the app would run as if it was the first time. The settings are supposed to be human-readable and are stored in XML format.

translations.helio and maybe others

Helio 104

Some additional resources are dynamically updated in the runtime, if the newer version is available. At the moment of writing, only translations are updated this way.

Helium 10 Tools

The projects directory

The projects files are created in the Helio subfolder of the user’s default documents folder. The location of this directory is also platform-dependent:

Helio 10
  • Windows: %HOMEPATH%Helio (for example, “c:UsersPeterDocumentsHelio“)
  • macOS: ~/Documents/Helio
  • Linux: ~/Documents/Helio

Helio 105 Weight

Building from source

Building the app from source will require a C++11 compiler, e.g. GCC 4.8 on Linux, Visual Studio 2015 on Windows, or Xcode 7.3.1 on macOS.

Minimum deployment targets are:

  • Windows: Windows 7
  • macOS: macOS 10.7
  • Linux: mainstream distributions

Basic build instructions

Helio 10 Pro

  • Clone with submodules: git clone --recursive https://github.com/helio-fm/helio-workstation.git.
  • Install dependencies:
    • On Windows, get ASIO SDK (which can’t be redistributed in this project due to licensing restrictions, but you may use ThirdParty/ASIO/get_asio_sdk.ps1 powershell script to download and extract the SDK source).
    • On Linux, you’ll need to have the following packages installed: libfreetype6-dev libx11-dev libxinerama-dev libxrandr-dev libxcursor-dev libxcomposite-dev mesa-common-dev freeglut3-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libasound2-dev libjack-dev libc++-dev; the makefile assumes you’ve set up either export CONFIG=Debug, export CONFIG=Release32 or export CONFIG=Release64 before you make.
  • Pick the right project for your OS from the Projects directory and build.
