The interesting thing is the sheep with the clipped wave form - that clipped wave form (or should it be a waaaave form as a sheep is involved) could mean this is a stomp box clone, not an amp? But as it’s then going straight into a speaker cabinet I might be overthinking this!

As my previous system was a Kemper, the concept of being able to clone distortion pedals is cool for me as I’ll be able to run them into an amp (either another capture or modelled). I couldn’t do that on Kemper - there was no way to capture a pedal unless it was part of an overall chain and (afaik) the mk2 doesn’t alter that.

Hopefully it won’t sound too baaaad.

Sorry.

I know the FB group gets some stick here (and often with good reason) but I still check it occasionally.

Saw this earlier from NAMM so hopefully we’ll get some details on Proxy over the next day or two :)

In case some kid finds this post and wonders what on earth a sheep has to do with proxy.

Drive pedal captures on other platforms have been a thing for years.

I am guessing they could either have separate drive vs amp capture blocks, or maybe just the icon changing based on the type of capture.

That sheep icon is perfect for this though. Can we start calling it the Dolly block?

Probably an icon change when you make the capture - like you can with QC
