This is truly the golden age of guitar pedals—and this clause, uttered with surety, applies equally to the pure analog stompboxes pushing the limit of today’s timbres, as it does to digital solutions. Indeed, the digital landscape is offering more and more to players who don’t want to schlep wide berths of gear in their wake. Today, we’ve come to examine a new and well-regarded contender for providing on-the-go effects modeling to your rig: the HeadRush pedal board.
With 33 amplifier models and 15 cabinet models available in its frame, this pedalboard seeks to go the extra mile by adding ten microphone models—for as you know, how one mics the cabinet greatly affects the resulting sound. If you prefer your own IR library of sampled cabs, then you’re in luck, because the HeadRush supports those, as well.
Also on hand are 42 effects for processing your guitar tone, with six distortion mods, eight rotary effects, two compressors, and more. These processes, plus a built-in looper with 20 minutes of record time, are sure to delight those who’d love to get lost in lush, languid soundscapes. All of this has been accomplished with a quad-core processor utilizing proprietary Eleven HD Expanded DSP software.
A 7" touch display clearly shows you your parameters and effects, all of which can be controlled easily with 12 footswitches and an expression pedal for continuously variable controls over select parameters. For I/O, this device supplies a bevy of 1/4" and XLR jacks for stereo connections and effects sends/returns, as well as 5-Pin DIN for MIDI in/through and USB for recording and re-amping. If all this sounds interesting to you, then definitely head to our website to check one out!
