The amp model that most modelers are missing out on

Another one that is kind of unique

I know i have read of a few big name producers say that amp is really special
Chris Baseford , Howard Benson
Chris has offered to send his to Fractal I think
 
Rockman. Not kidding. The Rockman in the Amplitube Satriani set is friggin' fun, and while not something you'd generally use on its own, it works nicely in layering.
I know there’s a few Tone Matches and other workarounds. But a proper Rockman model on the Axe-FX would be fantastic.

@FractalAudio have you taken a look at one? It is model-able or are there proprietary components in it that aren’t?

Rockman schematics are relatively easy to find online, and there's really nothing particularly fancy about them.

I had the X100 schematic laying around; it almost looks like a couple guitar pedals chained together. The preamp section is very distortion stompbox-like, and chorus/echo is handled by common bucket-brigade delay chips from that era (MN3007 / MN3011).

Yeah I wish HX had it. The sustainor module is an old fave of mine. I did end up getting TH-U Overloud's version of it, as well as the chorus. Not quite as gainy as an original but a boost up front will get it there. It's close enough to get my Rockman fix.
 
I thought about building this:


Not sure how close it gets to the original though.
