    I can't say I ever expected an entire amp and cab sim in the standard Boss enclosure. Props to the engineers at Boss for packing so many features into it too.

    • @xeroinfinity
      @xeroinfinity 6 месяцев назад

      there are other manufacturers who've made similar pedals over the last few years. but they're pricey! and i think all can only run one instance of each, amp sim and cab sim, so no delay or chorus in the same devices. Ive messed around with older sims(vst's) using a pc/laptop but not something i was into. But these new pedals simplify things IMO.

      I already have the FDR-1 + Combo Drive (Vox) + Power Stack (Marshall). FDR-1 has Reverb and Tremolo and I have gigged right into the PA with just the pedal and a guitar
      BOSS IR-2 with FX Loop, could be a game changer for many, as some guitar players only stick with BOSS for their pedals. Time to put some amps into storage.

How the engineers at Boss were able to pack so many cabs and sims into one pedal is borderline miraculous. My only (verrrry minor) negative: the letters on the type amp-cab dial are so tiny as to be almost unreadable. So, I simply memorized them all! Amazing amazing, amazing piece of gear. 10/10.

    Compared to my current solution, the Simplifier, this ticks all the boxes for me except balanced outputs, and that’s not the worst thing to be missing. The Simplifier is more tweakable and analog, but this has one of Boss’ MDP amp sims, which is the kind of “maybe we do more than just emulate old amps” thing that we need more of from digital modelers. I’ll be adding this to my arsenal.
