- 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
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..
How does it compare to hotone ampero stomp/stage?
@@user-zr5xy5pv8w 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.
