HeadRush MX5 - Guitar Amp and Multi Effect Modelling Processor with Touch Screen, Expression Pedal, Looper, Audio Interface for Guitarists and Bassists

Highly recommended! Great tones and so easy to use.

Prima werkend systeem voor Bas

Después de estar 3 años con el MX5 , hace poco adquirí el FLEX PRIME, ya que me gusta el formato de 3 pulsadores, si no necesitas pedal de expresión puedes tener un 4 pulsador disponible. Para usarlo en directo tengo una carpeta de SETLIST para cada concierto y presets de cada canción y con la posibilidad de tener 6 escenas por preset, que ahora con el FLEX PRIME pueden ser hasta 12. Mejora en todo a la versión anterior: - Mayor cantidad de huecos para colocar efectos(14) con la posibilidad de ecualizar gráficamente cada efecto o amplificador sin necesidad de usar un hueco para agregar una EQ (eso solo para mi es un motivo de peso para adquirirlo) - Mayor cantidad de escenas: 2 grupos de 6 escenas pero con el inconveniente de desactivar el pulsador de afinador, que igualmente se puede activar navegando en los menus, pero lo veo impracticable para directo. - Simulaciones de amplificador del REVALVER que mejoran mucho la calidad de las anteriores simulaciones, que ya eran bastante buenas, con la pega que no aparecen algunos amplis más típicos como el JCM 800 o el SLO 100 que usaba bastante, he tenido que ir a un PEAVEY 6505 y un DIEZEL, pero vamos para mi compensa con creces el poder usar Revalver y siempre puedes cargar un clon o super clon. - Conectividad mejorada, con bluetooth y wifi que permite incluso conectarte con una tablet por la red wifi compartida y poder ajustar los parámetros sin tener la pedalera en la mesa como con la MX5. - Libreria on line de donde descargar más efectos y amplis clonados.

Great unit. Arrived pretty quickly.

I love the tones I hear on recordings of my favorite guitarists. THOSE are the sounds I want to hear when I’m playing. So my new ‘rig’ is a powered FRFR cabinet being fed by a digital modeler front end. I tried the $399 Tonex unit and found it mostly excellent except that it isn’t a true modeling amp but rather a unit built around specific tone samples. Some were fantastic, others much less so. The unit also had a handful of basic effects to complement those samples. In contrast, and for only $100 more, the HeadRush Flex Prime uses meticulously crafted models of LOTS and LOTS of actual popular amps, effects, cabinets and IRs too. I finally have the full spectrum of guitar tones spanning from the 50s through today, accurately and faithfully reproduced, right down to the feel of how the tones respond to my fingers, pick, dynamics and note muting techniques. I am currently feeding it into my Spark FRFR cabinet and it sounds terrific, and ay all volume levels too. Getting satisfying, album-like tones at low volume levels is one of the benefits of using a FRFR based system. A conventional tube amp has to be cranked to ear-splitting levels to get the tones we crave, but that our wives and neighbors hate to also have to listen to. This unit supposedly has the exact same technical innards and sound models as the bigger, more expensive HeadRush units, and each tonal patch allow up to fifteen ‘blocks’ including an amp and cab, and are almost endlessly tweakable, but easily and in instantly musically ways. I’ve had it now for about a month and have already created the dozen or so patches I need to cover 90% of what I need. The learning curve is about an hour, but the combinations of tonal elements near infinite, and so I’ve barely scratched the surface. But the results are accurate, satisfying and most importantly, INSPIRING! You just want to play for hours! But it doesn’t stop there. Included is their ‘Revalver 5.0’ software, a program where you can modify amp models’ internal circuitry and build rigs that can ultimately be transferred to your physical unit. There’s also their ‘Amp Cloner’ software for capturing your own amps’ tones should you have a specific amp sound you’d like to take everywhere you go without having to lug your heavy tube amp head/combo and half/full stack. I’m just getting into these so look for a follow-up review in another few months. Is the experience the same as standing in front of a raging stack blasting at 120 db while your pant legs flutter? No. But in my mind it’s better. You get to hear the tones you’re actually chasing, like you hear on the albums, at any volume you want. And they sound right because this little box has accurate models of the amps that created them, not just the one or two tones your stack provides.

Cambie del helix stomp a este, si bien son un poco diferentes, este tiene las mismas funciones mas la pantalla táctil, es fácil de usar y en cuanto a sonido asemeja mucho, es de calidad con el plus de tener menos parametros pero los que tiene suenan increible! No me arrepiento del cambio
