Great video summarising some of the new features in 4.0. Your other video on the Core is also excellent, revealing some features I hadn’t previously seen - like the practice features; as a guitarist in a covers band the ability to loop sections of a song to figure out what’s going on is sooo useful. I’m a long-time Headrush Gigboard user and have been thinking of getting one of these newer units. Your videos were the ones I needed to convince me - thank you!
On the new features / requests to HR - I was in the beta programme for the Gigboard so got to test new features as they came out. Being able to give feedback and see it taken on board was fantastic. But it was hard to know which features were being chosen from the feature requests on the HR forum. There was no roadmap of where the updates were heading, and one of the most requested features (proper midi control) has never been taken on. But still, the versatility of the HR boards and the interface have kept me using it and not straying away. Thanks again!

Nice job, I really appreciate the info and the fact you are objective and honest. I am a hobbyist, but a huge HR fanboy (as I am also more or less gear stoopid, and the HR has the best UI that I tried). I look forward to more content from you in my feed. Keep it up!

Thanks for being first to provide the info👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

It's a good overview. One thing I think you missed when trying the Superclones, is the gain. Since a Superclone is multiple amp clones, you could have had quite a bit more natural gain by boosting the gain of the Superclone, even without the boost pedal. You do a great job. thanks.

New Kemper 12 beta update is public. And ToneX update today too.

Great unit in many ways, it seems, and I really wanted to love it for my solo singing and acoustic/electric performances. However, after receiving mine a few days ago, I sadly sent it back due to a couple of mission-critical features missing. I first wrote to Headrush Support, and they replied turbo-fast with a very helpful answer. 😊 Great company! Unfortunately, that answer revealed that my requested features are apparently not coming soon enough for me to hold onto the unit and wait (or maybe never coming?). They said they’d pass my input onto the development team, but who knows if and when it might get any follow-up? The main feature I was inquiring about would be having a global vocal chain across all presets, enabling the singer to tweak vocals at a gig as needed to suit local conditions (vocal level, EQ, reverb, maybe even compression) and have those changes automatically get applied to the vocal chain on ALL other presets, just as is possible with the TC Helicon VoiceLive 3 Extreme. To be fair, this is a very special feature that no other unit has (except the VL3X), but it is absolutely crucial for me, and the reason my Fender Tone Master Pro is gathering dust waiting to (maybe) receive that feature one fine day. The other missing feature: having vocal effects automatically get switched off when tuning/muting one‘s guitar. And I know Aaron would also like a slight volume boost when tuning and talking to the audience with the vocal effects off. I agree. ;-)

Good update!
But unfortunately they forgot the missing MIDI implementation again.

A lot of love coming in for the new editor but to me, simply having the foot switch with on press is an absolute game changer. Hated it the way it was.

[isadorealire]

Can the editor also be used for vocals? Like, say you are recovering from an illness and need a little eq.

I'm looking forward to the browser based editor. My two biggest complaints about the headrush core is that the looper has an issue that when you assign the looper buttons to your rig page there is a split-second glitch when you hit start. Go to the looper screen and it's fine. This is a real bummer. Also the vocal Harmony has a strange doubling effect on vocals. Very annoying and unusable. My work around has been to run my TC Helicon for harmony. 😢. Sounds great but kind of defeats some of the purpose. I hope headrush will fix these in the next update.

Excellent video! One question. Can I record a guitar track through the loop and then export it in some way (pendrive, cloud, or any other way)? If so, can you tell me what the recording resolution is? Thanks

[SalCavallaro]

top!!! could you please explain if it's possible to mute vocal fx in dual path mode ....I'm gettin crazy 'bout that.

[vaughanmacegan]

Is this firmware also available for the Headrush Prime?

[MrZhendos]

это все конечно прикольно, но почему присутствует огромная задержка на новых синтезаторных, органных эфaектах?

[jeffbateman]

For some reason, these new amps you’re trying out sound really bright and harsh… almost sounds like all the low end is rolled off and the treble is cranked up…. Normally the Headrush isn’t so bright

I still prefer wired connection options. I feel wifi radiation as I am hyper-sensitive to wireless device usage. It should be a no brainer to allow wired or wireless usage on all devices. I've been waiting for Headrush to make an editor for a long time. This wifi editor is not enough. I'm looking at the Core but the Tone Master Pro is coming up strong. It has a great touch screen like the Core but it has a full editor which I can use on an old surface Pro (connected) and have a great work experience. Headrush please take the editor to the next level and add USB connectivity. Great vid Aaron! Thanks.
