This post isn't for the haters, I think we know you hate Headrush.
For the folks interested in the new stuff in the firmware this is a good video with some of the features. Little to no gaps for most switching. Still no clue on the latency.

I am genuinely curious. The latency thing is a big deal and I would like to know
if they have found a way to reduce what it was with the Prime.

Ask to borrow it ...update to the new FW.....test the latencyYup. Same one who uses the Helix. He hasn't used it at practice in months.
....... answers.....
Boom.
All the main line run 4.0 now.
As long as you copy the folder....you can always roll back to previous firmware.....but have him back it up to be safe.
Run the same test as before.
No clone
Gain pedal clone
Amp clone
Gain pedal + amp clone
2 amp clones in series switchable with scenes ...then see how many delay and verbs can be assigned.
That should be a start.
Please, kind sir?

I don't have one to even test. I had a prime but didn't really care about captures so I sold it. Now I have a pile of great amps I could capture so I might get a core to mess with.I am genuinely curious. The latency thing is a big deal and I would like to know
if they have found a way to reduce what it was with the Prime.
I do know Headrush gets a ton of hate for updates but they updated 3 times since Helix last got an update lol
And now that you can clone plugins it could be fun.
Just to be an ass I might buy a Core and clone all of the presets in Helix and my FM9 and upload them to the Headrush Cloud.

Haha! Never even thought of that, to be honest. Good idea.

Ok. I am going to bring it up this coming week. We cool. He borrowed a Fractal
from me for a few weeks, so this may be something I can pull off.

Might be a fun little project where I can fall on my face and show
my utter lack in both comprehension and skills.

I think head rush would be an okay line if they were priced like zoom stuff or Behringer but if they think they’re going to compete with fractal and line 6 and even taster pro forget it
I mean, what’s with all? These companies thinking? They can just come out with a unit and automatically it’s a $1500 unit themselves.

I don't believe you would buy it if they sent you the money to buy it.....

Now I can agree that not all of it was done well or wanted by all but they did come out with a device that didn't exist, Touch screen with device graphics, capture, auto-tune, scribble strips, WIFI and Bluetooth off the top of my head. On paper $999 (now was it ever $1500?) for that is amazing really.

Wasnt it 1299 at launch? Anyhow i do like the gui and the looper. 799 list would make sense with Core at599 and mx5 at399

ReValver Amp Cloner's proprietary SuperClone functionality is the end of limited “snapshot” amp captures. Every other cloning/profiling solution captures a single view of the amp's current settings which completely falls apart when you attempt to adjust the gain or drive setting on the capture.
Amp Clone's SuperClone functionality allows the user to combine multiple clones into a SuperClone, with the Amp Cloner Player's Gain knob seamlessly morphing between clones and retaining the integrity of the source gear. Now clones become actual amp/pedal models. You can even take SuperClones to the next level by combining clones from different amps.
That's the claim on the Amp Cloner website. But I don't think "completely falls apart when you attempt to adjust the gain or drive setting on the capture" is true at all. When I had for example the Quad Cortex, I found that the gain was actually the control that worked quite close to the real amp. It's all the other knobs that don't.
So this doesn't really solve anything. I don't know why you'd really want to do some weird "go from a Fender to a Marshall to a Mesa" thing by combining different amps under the gain knob, when you could just...choose a different capture that represents those amps.
