I have the HX Stomp and the GT1000 core, and I use the GT1000 core far more often. The Boss has FAR less latency, and I just prefer the sound of Boss effects. But the killer feature for me is that every spot in the chain where you insert a split, you can assign a variable trigger. So you can send all low frequencies down one part of the chain and all other frequencies down a different path. Or you can assign pick attack, so light picking goes down one chain path, and hard picking goes down a different path. And so on. That type of feature gives you infinite customization for how you play.
The Boss IR-2 is stereo.... mono input, but stereo output and stereo return loop. It is excellent! I got one the week they were released after I saw the price and what it offered in the way of amps. I am very pleased. I have integrated it into my MS-3 based pedalboard that I have a Klon clone and zoom MS-70CDR added to for ambient effects. For the price you can't go wrong! I think I may get a 2nd one so I could run 2 amp/cab types at the same time like I do in other situations or with modelers.
I love the Tonex. Its ability to take wet effects in front really sets it apart from every other digital device I’ve tried. I’m rebuilding my board around it and selling my FM9.
The number one thing I love about the tonex(besides the obvious how it sounds) is being able to use a clean amp and a different overdriven amp. For worship on Sundays I just use one amp capture with pedals. However when I’m playing anything but worship I could use like a fender twin as my cleans and a dual rec, or a Plexi, or literally any other amp as my drive sound. with a third for a lead sound. A close second would be how well it does take pedals, especially wet effects.
I have set my banks Clean, Drive, Lead capture of the same amp. I still have a POT and GC drives but I hardly use them now. I would typically just use one bank but depending on what I’m playing, I’d use 2 or 3. Last Sunday I was playing rhythm so I used 3 different banks 😇
I play out sometimes in a 90’s 00’s rock band and I usually like the twin for cleans and I’ll use a dual rec, 5150, JCM800 and others. All in separate banks. Also I most of the time for a lead sound I’ll use the tumnus on the same amp I’m using in whatever song it is been my favorite pedal for lead sounds. For church I usually use a matchless or the twin with the protein, kilt and tumnus to produce the different sounds I need. Works for me
Yes! How well they take wet effects is my favorite thing! No other amp pedal does it better. I also really liked the midi. I used it like channel switching.
@@rhoydotp yeah, that was a weird take. It’s super useful in certain situations. I typically like to only have one amp setting, to make it easier for the audio engineer to just pull up my old settings, but when I went to a small board, I only used the protein for drives, and having the midi options on the Tonex was huge for making all the sounds I needed.
HX Stomp is wild, I run stereo amps and IRs, an EQ on each side, a delay, and in different patches do polyphonic octave, reverb, shuffle looper, and more. It is a beast.
I use two of the UA amp pedals for my stereo sound each going to its own amp, FRFR speaker or PA mixer, I couldn’t take the option paralysis of some of the other platforms now I use UA amp pedals they are more than versatile enough as far as the different ways you can use them and most importantly they sound great! I hope nothing new comes out.
After many many gigs, I will say people love the sound of the Dream 65. But I just picked up an HX Stomp and I gotta say I love it more. The versatility is a strong point, but the pre-baked patches are just amazing. Not to mention the community of Line 6 users online.
I bought the Kemper Profiler Player and love it so far. Never had a Kemper before but I’m amazed how it sounds and how great the effects are. I used it by itself on Sunday at church and it worked great for the particular songs that day. I went from Helix LT to Iridium to UA Dream to Kingsley Maiden w/ Two Notes to Kemper Profiler Player. Putting it on my board soon with a Cioks Crux to power it from the DC7.
@@danzerpaz the kemper player is backordered pretty much everywhere. I ordered mine on Sweetwater, but there's 300 orders in front of mine so it'll be a few weeks at least.
@@spillemusicstudios8515 I understand, but I'm from Brazil and my friend is looking for me in Fort Myers, unfortunately I don't have weeks to wait. Guess I'll have to go to plan B, HX Stomp.
To save some people time and money. Save money: The ToneX is spot on with the tone of the amps it’s capturing. So if you want the most realistic amp tone, get it. There are folks who capture their amps and then haven’t touched their amp since. They just run the ToneX of it. Save Time: Most of the really good capturers put one or two of their amps captures up for free. Then you have to purchase their tone packs to get access to their full spectrum of the captures they did on the particular amp. After many trials, here are some great amps for worship. This also allows you to do the clean, dirty, and distortion on the ABC presets without having to use any overdrives or boosts in front of the ToneX.

I should also note that Justin from York Audio has fantastic IR’s if you want to change things up a bit. He’s a former band member of Paramore and now focuses on his new venture with IR’s.
Videos of recorded tones of the vox and Ruby and the plexi and Lion would be cool. If you have a reactive load, running them all through the ox stomp to level the cab/mics at one point might be cool too.
Thansk, I really enjoyed this. I’m using HX Stomp with HXFX (just kinda happened, wasn’t intentional) due to community/support, but it was great to hear about all the other devices.
I bought the line 6 pod express (the plastic red one) and I hated it at first and returned it. Then I tried it again and fell in love with it. I’m hooked on the modelers now! I just needed to learn how to dial in the sounds correctly and treat it like an amp.
I just remember the ACS1 having this irremediable honk. Maybe they’ve addressed that in more recent updates, but I just couldn’t get over it. Had the Ruby/Dream combo. Running a Stomp now, and I’m a happy boi (or now 😅).
Nice overview. I also appreciated your willingness to share what you actually use personally and why. Personally, I'd be really curious about a Stomp/Lion/Ruby combo, but I prefer taking a single unit, so I lug around my Helix. Keep the content coming!
I just don't get the love for the HX stomp. I couldn't sell mine fast enough. Pretty good sounds and flexibility but horrible UI. It's good at most things but great at nothing. Love the UAFX stuff personally
Although the Stomp power supply is 3 Amps, it actual draws less than 1. I power a Stomp XL with two 660mA jacks on a Cioks DC7 (plus adapters) without a problem. Most power supplies consider 500mA high power. Two of those jacks can power a Stomp, but might be a little short for an XL.
I’m really enjoying the Lion and Strymon Dig in the fx loop of the HX Stomp, using the Stomp for compression, drive, modulation, and reverb. The Helix amps are good, but not as good as the UAFX amps, so it frees up the Stomp to do what it does best.
I only have the HX Stomp so I’m biased but the Stomp is really hard to beat with the size, sounds and flexibility. It’s just a great unit all across the board.
@@ccamacho9333 I'm a Helix user also for 6 years and I ended up getting a fender 1966 princeton..and when the princeton model came out for the Helix..I tried making a preset on my Helix..I compared the preset with my princeton and it didn't sound like the real thing..I was super disappointed! It's an awesome unit but idk I'm thinking of trying out the kemper player or tonex to get that tube amp like sound 🙏
@@ccamacho9333very much feels terrible once you’ve played things like the QC and Tonex. Still can get it to sound great, and it’s flexibility is amazing.
Very wise to preamble with your justification for not doing shootout sound samples... I did some videos recently and people gave me the funniest hate comments because I didn't have sound samples. 😂
All the options? What about the boss IR pedals? You guys also should take a look at budget minded stuff. There are great tones to be had in the Zoom MS-50. I have a full Strymon midnight board and a small board with two zoom ms pedals. The little zoom holds up remarkably well live.
Yeah id definitely like to see a minimalist option (well, maybe not lol) of the simplifier or dlx. Less price and you basically just lose the ability to load irs.
I definitely need midi for my Tonex and here's why. I play metal, I use my Helix with my Tonex, in one of my bands on one song for example I need to go straight from a dry heavy sound to a clean sound with chorus delay and reverb. In that instance I'm REALLY happy with the fact that I can do all that with one switch. But I get that it's overkill for most 😂
wow!!! another great video, congratulations always!! just one question: I play the bass and the double bass, I work with a pedal board where I mainly use the Eventide H90 and the Meris LVX (unsurpassed and indispensable), I use the bass cab and head but for some time I have felt the need to add something can also be used simply with headphones and a nice integrated looper, as well as the possibility of moving without an amplifier. I'm undecided between the Quad Cortex and the hx stomp xl, can I ask you to go a little further and give me some advice taking into account that I'm interested in bass amplifier simulations? Thanks in advance and sorry for the long-windedness
We are looking to simply replace our tube amp with a profiler for not needing to have amp screaming in a back room and consistently. Looking at the hx stomp or the kemper player. We all have our own full pedal boards with drives and verbs, so no need for effects. Which will work better? I like the XLR out on the kemper but i like the idea that we can one day run real stereo on the line 6, but will need to still use a DI box.
Dudes, yall are kinda close to where I'm at .... bout 125 miles. I'm in Phenix city Alabama. I pluck notes on da Bass at my church. I play all the songs the same haha. I mean I am certainly not doing it as the recording artist. The rest of our P&W say I'm doing great....😅 I told them .. your Christian, you can't tell me I suck😂 love yall show !!
Fortrhe Tonex sounds like they maybe should have put XLR in and outs as opposed to Midi and maybe put mini midi plugs in there and a delay would have been well received .

Great video guys! Any ideas on how to power that kemper player from a zuma? I'm assuming a current doubling cable will come out eventually like it did for the hx stomp, but that doesn't help us early adopters haha
I think you take the watts/volts and that gives you mA, which would mean the player requires 2.7A. I'm just curious if its like the HX stomp which says it needs 3A but works off of 1A. @@worshiptutorials
We have quite a few cab/speaker IR's as well as acoustic IR's that should be compatible with the IR-2. We're trying to get our hands one of those units to show it off with our IR cabs.
Great video guys! I feel like yall would know the answer to this by now… I have an hx stomp and use it on my board for various fx. I’ve heard people say the stomp fx loop has a tone suck or affects the tone negatively. Have yall found this to be true? Would use it for sure just don’t know if that’s accurate and don’t want to rewire my whole board if it is a negative effect
Please tell me the IR pack for the JH100 G12C speakers is coming out soon. I have a Marshall Vintage Modern Combo which is basically the same amp and speakers, plus the nice modern features like a loop, master volume and reverb. I’m dying to get some good IRs of those speakers for when I can’t bring out the amp itself.
Bradford! I play a Jamison era* Lightning on Sundays. Which pedal-sized unit (i.e not QC) would you recommend for silent practice at home and as a backup on Sundays? I'd love a QC but a lot of these options are much cheaper for the simple use case I'm interested in. Thank you! *Making that a thing because Phil is great!
You need to probably do a video on putting your pastor behind the stage if he wants to have you put your amp behind the stage. It's only fair... ;) Thankfully, the church I play at wouldn't dare. As a result, we don't tell him how to dress or how to do his job. (It needed to be said.)
We mentioned this several times throughout the video. This was a live video, and we were using our phones to monitor comments and respond to them. It’s not ideal, but the best way for us to engage with people during the live stream.
Very true ! I'd a/b's the iridium and ACS-1, an the iridium had my preference : easy access, ir's upgrade, takes well pedals, goos in the mix, stereo, ...make it unbeatable
HX does tweak the underlying engine with firmware updates, they just don’t tell you every time. Hm my link to Digital Igloo’s (Eric Klein) TGP post isn’t showing, I guess UA-cam blocks it.
@@worshiptutorials oh and you guys yourselves said the new HX amp models sound so good... there's no other reason that'd be the case other than improved modeling process/tech.
I downloaded the Tonex and Helix Native software and did an A/B comparison...sorry but the Helix amps sounded 2D and the Tonex amps sounded 3D, Helix is very outdated when it comes to modeling, effects are very good...try it yourself without being a Helix fan
Has the wifi connection issues been sorted with the quad cortex? I had one right in the begining and liked it but it just had so many bugs and issues that i got rid of it
I can't get on board with the Kemper limitations. Releasing a new product that super cedes a 10 year old product is just the way it works... I can't see why anyone would buy a new Kemper Profiler Head at this point.
@timburle4980 Fuller started a new job/career a little while ago, so he hasn’t had as much time as he used to. It’s not that he doesn’t fit in. We’ll have more content in the future with Fuller.
I think the crux with DLC, or openly saying that you purposefully nerfed a product so it can't directly compete, says it all. It is all about the money.
Fractal doesn’t really make a pedal in this market. FM3 is the closest thing but it’s way bigger than all these, and does way more. It’s really an all in one.

I am currently thinking about buying a Hotone Ampero II Stage instead of an HX Stomp. Do you have any experience with the new Stage?
Watts = Volts × Amps
Usually you know the watts and volts, to then figure out how many amps are needed. 1 amp = 1000 mA.
What mic are you guys using? Looking for one for a similar set for our ministry.
I really wanna know if hx stomp runs wet effects well as tonex runs, or even as the iridium/acs1.
I had no idea that Brian was from my hometown!
I want a job where I "have" to buy all the new toys when they come out even though I have more than I'll ever need several times over.
It's distracting to me as a viewer when Bradford is texting on his phone while being talked to in a video. Just sayin.
Love the videos but you need a sturdier table!
Please tell me the IR pack for the JH100 G12C speakers is coming out soon. I have a Marshall Vintage Modern Combo which is basically the same amp and speakers, plus the nice modern features like a loop, master volume and reverb. I’m dying to get some good IRs of those speakers for when I can’t bring out the amp itself.
Soon-ish :)
+1 lol sold the helix-stomp-sold stomp- kepmer+ pedals now back to a stomp and tonex lol.
Bradford! I play a Jamison era* Lightning on Sundays. Which pedal-sized unit (i.e not QC) would you recommend for silent practice at home and as a backup on Sundays? I'd love a QC but a lot of these options are much cheaper for the simple use case I'm interested in. Thank you!
*Making that a thing because Phil is great!
Let’s make Jamison era a thing! (This is Brian btw).
@@worshiptutorials Appreciate you, Brian! I'd love your insights as a C-30 owner, but I know Bradford is the Lightning guy. 🤘
I have an iridum and currently use the York Audio Matchless pack while I’m waiting on my HC30 to arrive. I think you’ll find this one fantastic.
@@jordanguill361 Thank you! Enjoy your HC30!
I have went back to the iridium two times now Something about the tone
You need to probably do a video on putting your pastor behind the stage if he wants to have you put your amp behind the stage. It's only fair... ;) Thankfully, the church I play at wouldn't dare. As a result, we don't tell him how to dress or how to do his job. (It needed to be said.)
I can't get the Tonex to connect with my laptop or desktop... it seems like a very common issue
The joyo amp pedals are amazing and only cost $40.
How about putting your phones away for this. Do you need to be somewhere else?
We mentioned this several times throughout the video. This was a live video, and we were using our phones to monitor comments and respond to them. It’s not ideal, but the best way for us to engage with people during the live stream.
Can you guys talk about GFI duophony between UA Ruby and UA dream ?
The iridium offers the most realistic amp models without having to tweak them. I don’t think any company tops Strymon on any pedals.
i can think of a few
@@Monkeydoge u you pure entitled to your opinion. I stated mine and I’ve tried many but strymon has been way higher quality
@@Monkeydogeme too lol.
lol
Very true ! I'd a/b's the iridium and ACS-1, an the iridium had my preference : easy access, ir's upgrade, takes well pedals, goos in the mix, stereo, ...make it unbeatable
Commenting on Kemper’s approach @ 54:30.
No morph is ok but no screen!!
Which of these pedals lend itself best to simply usng iit as a pedal in front of an amp - old school?
You guys say the HX modeling is old, but it’s arguably one of the newest cus they keep updating it.
While they do keep adding new models, they aren’t updating the underlying modeling process/technology
@@worshiptutorialsand it doesn’t take 3A to run the HX Stomp! It takes like 1.2A, or usually a bit less.
HX does tweak the underlying engine with firmware updates, they just don’t tell you every time.
Hm my link to Digital Igloo’s (Eric Klein) TGP post isn’t showing, I guess UA-cam blocks it.
@@worshiptutorials oh and you guys yourselves said the new HX amp models sound so good... there's no other reason that'd be the case other than improved modeling process/tech.
I downloaded the Tonex and Helix Native software and did an A/B comparison...sorry but the Helix amps sounded 2D and the Tonex amps sounded 3D, Helix is very outdated when it comes to modeling, effects are very good...try it yourself without being a Helix fan
The Friedman IR-X is pretty cool! 😃
We haven't tried that one yet - I'd love to.
What amps/model would you use for the triple shots?
Has the wifi connection issues been sorted with the quad cortex? I had one right in the begining and liked it but it just had so many bugs and issues that i got rid of it
I’ve had my QC almost from the beginning. Hadn’t had a WiFi issue till the last few months
Two notes opus, dynri are great.
I can't get on board with the Kemper limitations. Releasing a new product that super cedes a 10 year old product is just the way it works... I can't see why anyone would buy a new Kemper Profiler Head at this point.
How does the acs1 compares to the iridium after the new firmware?
I actually think the ampero 2 is better than the stomp...
Are you on staff at church of the highlands?
No. I (Brian) am not on staff at a church. I do volunteer but I don’t not attend Highlands.
You left out the boss ir 200 which is possibly the best of the bunch.
We addressed Boss for a good bit 👍🏼
Not as good as tone x and quad/ kemper
This is a nice video!! But wassup with the other guy Fuller I guess I haven’t seen him a long time, just wondering!
I was wondering that as well. Guess he didn’t fit in.
@timburle4980 Fuller started a new job/career a little while ago, so he hasn’t had as much time as he used to. It’s not that he doesn’t fit in. We’ll have more content in the future with Fuller.
Ooooooooh thanks for the clarification, he is an awesome dude can’t wait to see him soon enough
Purple plexi is the pinacle
I have kpa headrush and Tone x and tone x wins imo
I think the crux with DLC, or openly saying that you purposefully nerfed a product so it can't directly compete, says it all. It is all about the money.
Where’s the Sans Amp and flyrig5
missing the fractal guys :-)
Fractal doesn’t really make a pedal in this market. FM3 is the closest thing but it’s way bigger than all these, and does way more. It’s really an all in one.
6:20 - There are 6 on Reverb right now.
All I see are pre orders.
Boss dropped the ball on the 1000.. bad ui and missed opportunity
Annoying to see this guy staring at the cell phone and contributing near to nothing. I am out at minute 20.
It was a live video. Looking at comments. Give us some credit, man.
26:34 so true haha
Does the tonex work also for acoustic guitar sounds ?
Yeah you could. You can use it to host an acoustic IR. You’d just need to turn the amp section off
Please consider putting the dude's phone in a lockbox when recording videos.
It was a livestream. We can’t see what people are saying otherwise.
Ah! My apologies !!
@@worshiptutorials
H90 is up there if not better than HXstomp. Yeah, it’s better. 😂
H90 is not a modeler. It is effects only. I love my h90 though. I have a boss gt 1000 core as well
