Headrush Core Any Good?
A few things I like and some things that I wish were better regarding the rarely talked about Headrush Core MultiFX processor. #guitargear #multifx #guitarpedals #headrushfx #headrush #gearreview #guitarists #musicproduction #youtubereview #newgear

A Pantera like riff inspired by my reluctance to pay Ticketmasters stupid fees to see them play LA. Thanks for watching!

Quad Cortex Capture with Fryette Power Station
Переглядів 9632 роки тому
Hey Wazzup! Just a run through of how I capture my amp sounds with a Fryette Power Station and a Quad Cortex. Hopefully it helps someone. Thanks for watching!
I have bought hx stomp recently and now once I started to figure out hx stomp I felt like core could be q better for me as a songwriter and a guitarist but there isnt any reviews that much on headrush with their effects side of the unit. I really like reverbs and delays stuff on hx they sound awesome. Do you think they are similar on the fx side with helix?
@@denizguneyozel4158 if you are a solo artist playing coffee shops the Headrush is great. It has everything you would need and more for that kind of gigging or similar interests. I actually just bought an HX Stomp again because I missed the FX and the flexibility as far as signal chain routing. Headrush has just come out with another update for their units which is great news. One of the things I had read about Headrush is that they did not update often. As far as the quality of FX, I plan on making another video when I actually get my stomp. It’s been a while since I’ve used one but from what I remember it was pretty awesome.
I sold my Helix about a year ago after using it live for about 4 years... I liked it but hated the amount of time I spent putting things together. I was going to buy a TMP but kept putting off the purchase until I had to have one for a some stuff coming up in Jan. I ended up getting this and so far I'm loving it. Picked it up at Zzsounds as well as they are on sale. One of my sons already used it to put down some bass tracks and they sound pretty spot on as well. So far I can dial in a sound that I like in about 5 minutes... it took a lot longer with the Helix. I also like the size of this much better as well. I'm definitely not an expert yet but learning and find it enjoyable to play around with... something I really never felt with the Helix. Who knows I may change my mind eventually but right now still very happy with the switch and from what I have found so far, I can't see the TMP being worth twice the price or more.
Ya I agree with the HX being a little menu heavy on the device itself. The software is really where the Helix kind of shines especially with scenes or snapshots. I have since moved on from the Headrush and went back to my Tonex since they added more FX blocks. I’m kind of waiting for something that’s the right price and has the features I want. The TMP is interesting but I can’t justify the price point… yet
HeadRush recently released a new Firmware 4.0 update with a MAC/PC Software Editor. & Revalver stuff = Game Changer
if they cant spell rhythm.. idk
Oh shit fuckin multiverse
Thank you for this - some of those are dealbreakers for me
Anyone else find it weird that the footswitches only trigger the change when you lift off instead of when you press (like every other device)? Also that the ‘mono’ xlr out only outputs the left channel when using the training tool? I asked support to provide options for these but that was ages ago and nothing
Thank you
The Headrush Core is criminally underrated. The user interface is better than the others by a mile. People complain about customer support, but I have no experience with so can't comment on that. I use a Tonex One, hx stomp, and this one. Out of the 3, the headrush is the easiest and most versatile. Tonex has the best amp captures, but the software is absolute trash.
Have owned both this unit and the QC. Thinking about selling the QC and going back to this unit. My IR's work in both and this Headrush seems to be more fitting to what I do!
Ya the QC is a great unit but it was a little overkill for what I need. There is definitely room for improvement with the Headrush Core but not enough of a difference to spend 1k more in my opinion.
Im in the same boat, have a Kemper Stage and a HR Core & Prime, and may sell the Kemper. These 2nd Gen HR products are so good, nothing really outclasses them, maybe a percent here & there, but they swing with the big boys.
Same size as Gigboard?
@@brucesmusicvideos I can’t find the dimensions of the gigboard but I’m pretty sure the Core is larger. One more switch and more ins and outs.
Like like like .
Great video and chugging. Did you consider the prime? I’m debating between core and prime. Prime is so big but the additional switches always help.
Prime is too big for me. My needs were for live use so I needed something that could fit into a backpack and didn’t take up much space. I can create 8 scenes with my 4 switches and that’s more than enough for me. Honestly if I were to buy one of the bigger units I would consider the Line 6. More DSP, better signal routing.
How does it compare to hotone ampero stomp/stage?
@@二加二 I have not used an Ampero Stage. Ampero is definitely making some interesting stuff so hopefully I will be able to try.
I'm kinda same as you I honestly love the tones I get from the headrush products but there are several things that they would need to improve if they really want to really compete with the bigger sellers. I.e. - the midi implementation is very limited IMO - The lack of software editor - not being able to use transfer/USB audio modes simultaneously - the fixed signal paths - some of the amp or distortion models are bad
@@renelbp5335 Ya I didn’t cover MIDI but you are absolutely right. I was thinking as long as I can get everything I need from the pedal itself then I’m good with no MIDI implementation. Signal paths get an F minus haha. I will say that I have received a lot more compliments about how I sound. It’s weird how satisfied/ unsatisfied I am with this one.
@@renelbp5335 You've nailed what's wrong with the Headrush.
The HeadRush Amps sound outdated , the emperor stage or even the stomp 2 have better sounding amps etc..but use your own IR stuff in any of these boxes
The signal paths are the #1 reason I didnt upgrade to the Prime, I was stoked to get a vocal input, then they limit me to 7 blocks on the guitar and 7 on the vocals.. useless. I put a feature request in, but 18 months have passed and they haven't acknowledged it. I love the sound of Headrush products, I love the UI.. so why am I using a Quad Cortex?
Ya all of these units have their pros and cons. I have been through quite a few of them. I feel like if we keep voicing our opinions someone will eventually listen and will create a product that is closer to perfection. The Quad is amazing. I think the main reason I moved on from that unit was that a $1800 piece of equipment seemed like overkill for what I am doing. It sucks that no one from Headrush acknowledged your request. The Core has so many great features that it is frustrating that they just completely overlooked signal path flexibility.
@@sh4dda1musick11 We're on the same journey, I've had a Helix, Headrush Pedalboard, Fractal FM9T and now the QC, as far as I'm concerned they all sound great, it boils down to, configuration options, the operating system and user experience, (aka: joy!) to me.. the Headrush and QC are the most fun, the Helix kept running out of DSP, the Fractal is like configuring the bios of a 1985 windows PC, no fun at all.. but some people love them.. so what do I know. I got the QC used, so I'm only into for £900, I like that I can run a vocal path alongside the guitar and have DSP to spare.. miss those scribble strips though..
Headrush just released a new firmware for Prime/Core that offers two new combined signal,paths: 2 vocal blocks/12 guitar blocks and 4 vocal blocks/10 guitar blocks. Guess they are listening to users, they’re just not quick about it
@@scottbullard3479 2 years too late for me.. I bought a Quad Cortex 6 months ago, I kept the Pedalboard as a backup, I'd like to try a Prime but frankly having got used to 30 blocks on the QC it would feel like a backward step.
@@MuckingAboutWith30 blocks? Seriously?
Hey brother. Thanks for sharing this video. Could you help me? I’m not trying to capture anything, just want to play my quad cortex and have sound come out of my cabinet. Have no idea how to do this. I have a Marshall Silver Jubilee studio with FX loop, fryette powerstation and a diesel 4x12 cabinet. How the heck do I hook this up to get sound coming through the cabinet? Thanks in advance
buenísimo
Cool
thanks!
Great jam man, those tones sounded awesome 😀🤘🎵🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thanks a lot!
Amazing! What plugin do you use?
STL tones. This one is the 5153 amp sim. I think I put the bb preamp in front.
Great metal riff !! 🔥🔥
Great work man, that was awesome 😀🤘🎵🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I was just trying this tonight. Were you still able to play through your cab when you were setting the levels.
Yes I was. The cab is connected to my powerstation from the amp head. I had the powerstation going out to the cab and connected from the direct out into my QC. Were you having trouble monitoring through your cab?
@@sh4dda1musick11 I was getting weird noises prior to setting up. I do have my amps going through a KHE amp switch. I may try again tomorrow with that out of the equation
Got it, was not set up right last night. I slowed it all down and made my first capture. Didn’t put him into just wanted to see it work and it did. Thanks for the vid helped me know it can be done.
@@DJ33 glad I could help
@@sh4dda1musick11 thanks bud
Nice 👍🏻 riffs !!
Killer Groove 👌Well Done
Thanks!
Great job 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Thank you!
Great entry man, that sounded awesome 😀🤘🎵🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thanks!
Was headbanging while listening it's a good sign Great work !!
That is a very good sign! Thanks a lot!
Great work man, that sounded awesome 😀🤘🎵🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

if you use a power station, does that make it that I don't need to put a microphone on the cabinet speaker?
That is correct. I did not have to mic the cab when using the power station. The cab is only connected for monitoring purposes.
LOVE that jackson! Quick note - pretty sure you're actually hearing the amp itself for both A/B tests in the QC menu (not the amp compared to QC). The only way for signal to reach that cab is via the 5150 the way you have it setup, unless I'm not seeing something. To hear an actual comparison you'd have to have an additional output stage or go to interface. The QC result tone will not come out from the capture out - only the primary outs. Happy to explain deeper if that doesn't make sense. You can prove it to yourself but doing something like turning the 5150 to standby during the A/B test to show which is which.
You could be right but when I put the capture into a preset it sounds exactly the same so it still works! I will look into what you said though. Thanks for looking out! Oh and I love that Jackson its my favorite one to play. Ive had USA made ones that I have not loved as much.
This is very helpful. I had not thought about using a PS when doing the capture and this allows me to do captures without blowing others out of the house with the crazy loud noise coming from the speakers during the capture process.
glad i could help
