Hey guys. I am planning on running a Raspberry PI as my headunit with a DAC that can put out both optical and RCA signals. My question is: if I use the optical output to a Helix DSP, will the Helix allow me to have F/R fade capabilities?

No. It is a 2 channel PCM signal.
So your Pi can't supporting fading, but you may be able to support fading in the Helix by means of a Director. The URC.3 will not support it, but the Director may.
