MOD does it, but the Latency is remarkable. Needs more DPS power (more cost)Any box with enough horsepower to run NAM should be able to handle a suite of those other standard effects as well.

I don't think that's a good way to think about it.How much will a pedalboard cost with the upcoming NAM player? adding compressor, delays, drives, reverbs etc, a minimal signal chain that could tackle a 1 hour gig of 80, 90 and 2000 music.
Lets say that Line6 M5 ($169.99) takes care of post NAM pedal stuff. A Suhr woodshed compressor($149) and a Friedman Buxom boost ($199) takes care of the pre NAM pedal part. NAM pedal $499.99
That is a cost of $1,017.98 on pedals alone, assuming you already have a pedalboard and power supply.
Just get a Fractal FM3 and enjoy way better FXs, routing options, audio interface, best in class Amp and cab modeling etc.
Sure. But take the Kemper Player... comes with NO capturing software, if you do not own the Kemper unit that profiles, you are stock with buying the profiles of other people. Kemper Player lest you put 2 fx before and after the profiles and that is great! it also works as an audio interface. So it is a better choice than Tonex and NAM player to the NO MIDI UA failed pedals.I don't think that's a good way to think about it.
If you want a specific version of a specific effect, and you want it with dedicated controls you can adjust with ease, a FM3 is not going to do it for you. I see something like a NAM player, Tonex, Kemper Player, Strymon Iridium, UA pedals more as a replacement for your amp/cab and that's it. If they are compact enough you build a pedalboard around them, which can be as simple or complex as you'd like.
FM3 also can't create captures of your favorite amps, or some obscure gear that will never get modeled.
While I agree a FM3 is generally much better value for money, you do get a number of pros and cons in the "one device does everything" concept.
MOD's current devices can just barely handle nano NAM models.MOD does it, but the Latency is remarkable. Needs more DPS power (more cost)
Is it? It's a lot more expensive than the Tonex, and with the Tonex software you can make your own captures using a half-decent audio interface. I mean I hate the Tonex app very much, but it's hard to argue that the Kemper Player is good value for money, when you have e.g a HX Stomp in a similar price bracket, a cheaper Tonex and so on.Sure.

BOSS has done great implementation with its new amp modeling pedal in its standard form factor.MOD's current devices can just barely handle nano NAM models.
My point is that any device capable of really running NAM well should also be able do those extra effects. Most typical effects (delay, chorus, etc.) add a trivial amount of CPU compared to what NAM requires.
NAM processing is heavier and great quality delays, reverbs, drive etc also requiere juice and great algorithms.
This upcoming pedal is from a guy starting up, $500 better have exceptional latency and quality I/O converters. IF not it will not last.
Poly Effects BeeBo already does this as of the last firmware and much more for less money.
It's probably the perspective and the numbers being between the two outer pairs and the middle being emptyIs it just me, or are those footswitches spaced unevenly?
Haha - I'd say it looks fine to me, but I've not got one to measure.Is it just me, or are those footswitches spaced unevenly?
No 12" touchscreen?I find it funny that we get twisted up in interfaces 24x7 yet this thing is considered a viable option. No thanks.
pfftt.... 8k high def 50 inch screen model, when?No 12" touchscreen?
Pretty curious to see / hear some demos of the thing. I see MIDI and "room" (reverb?) which is cool.View attachment 19838
I've just seen the latest post over at the Dimehead facebook page.
Things are looking good!
These look a lot nicer than the prototype on the first page. I think there's a knob for most things you'd want to tweak too. Better fonts as well.View attachment 19838
