Coming from all analog, this thing has blown my mind.I compared all the other competitors options and for all around usage, the Headrush Prime seemed to me to be the best.

Had the original pedalboard, this one has nice updates. If you’re into this technology it is a great unit

Vivo en canarias y me ha llegado en tiempo y forma, súper versátil, para ensayar, grabar todo junto. Si se sabe usar y armar bien las cadenas de efectos no sientes gran diferencia a pedales y amplificadores de toda la vida. Vale la pena el dinero invertido..!

I upgraded from the OG Pedalboard and the Prime is leaps and bounds better. First all the tones included sound great. You get some great touch sensitivity now. The amp models seem to all have been upgraded. It’s still a breeze to creat your own patches and loading IR’s is even easier with a built in USB port. Now for the great stuff. The cloud has a ton of amps that folks have captured. Some are great, some not so great. You’ll have to sift through for the good ones. Same goes for the OD/Distortion pedals on there.The main reason I went with the Prime is the cloning. I found that for distortion and amps it really does a good job of cloning. Overdrive pedals that blend a clean and dirty signal need work though. I find that the prime adds bass instead of a clean signal. Hopefully their algorithm can be improved on later to get those blends so we can clone our favorite OD’s.The board is big but has lots of features, some of which I’ll never use (vocal processor).The price point per feature is great and it’s a very capable unit. If you’re looking to clone your amps and distortion/OD pedals you won’t find a unit at a better price for what’s offered.

PRO- Bella. Solida.- Schermo touch funzionale- Non c'è software, si fa tutto dal touch (per me è una cosa a favore, voi decidete se vi piace o meno)- Facile creare rig- Controlli e pot intuitivi- Suono: non da gridare wow, ma decente.CONTRO- Community poco attiva. Registratevi per curiosità sul sito della headrushforum e vedrete che c'è poco da scaricare come rig creati da altri utenti. (al contrario mi sono trovato a frequentare il forum della line6 e trovate, per quelle pedaliere, rig in quantità industriali).- Pochi ampli ed effetti, l'indispensabile per suonare.- Aggiornamenti quasi assenti, come se sia proprio la headrush stessa a non voler mantenere il cliente ma sia più propensa a prendere i soldi una volta sola e poi far andare via i loro utenti verso altre pedaliere di altre marche. Strane politiche aziendali, ma così vogliono e così faremo.CONSIDERAZIONI FINALI- Se volete una pedaliera da accendere e dopo 5 minuti riuscite già a suonare, prendetela.- Se non vi interessano una quantità decente di effetti, ma vi bastano un ampli, un distorsore e un paio di altri effetti, prendetela.QUALITA'/PREZZO = Sui 750/800 euro inizia ad essere un best buy. Tra gli 800/1000 pensateci bene a comprarla. Sopra i 1000, lasciate stare, mettete quei 200 euro in più e comprate l'altra che ho nominato prima.

Es una maravilla, tiene un sonido tremendo y una gran cantidad de efectos y su interfaz es muy fácil de usar, es muy grande y pesada, muy grande enserió, por lo que tendrás que tenerla s9bre un banco o mesa para irle encontrado tu sonido pero una vez hecho la vas a amar, si sabes sacarle el sonido la vas a amar, ya sea que uses amplificador o FRFR, cualquier de las dos son buenas opciones, yo la uso directo a un amp boas nextone que emula marshall y suena tremenda como multiefectos, tiene absolutamente todos, la última actualización incluye sintetizadores y tiene todo lo que te imaginas de efectos, me encanta, también tengo una mx5 y suena de maravilla apesar de su tamaño y que no es la última que sacaron, pero es también una super opción chiquitina.Pero si quieres un monstruo de tamaño y sonido, Prime te va a enloquecer, yo la compre por 23,000 y algo y los vale. Llevo poco más de un mes y va perfecto, además puedes descargar de la nube los pedales h amplificadores clonados y suenan de lujo, trae wifi, así que se actualiza sin pc y blueethoot para poner tus backingtracks, que sonarán horrible en ampli pero bien en un FRFR.Repito ES ENORME pero algo muy profesional.

Nach dem Update sind ein paar Sonderfunktionen beinhaltet. Beim Kauf hatte ich mehrere Tests gelesen. Wurde nicht enttäuscht. Ist aber nicht ganz so einfach wie gedacht. Das Hirn muss dabei sein!

Très bonne pedale guitare, basse et micro chant !Beaucoup de possibilités de grande qualité !Mais attention pas si facile que ça à prendre en main ! Il faudra vraiment bien l’étudier et comprendre tout les termes ! Sinon c’est vraiment un excellent produit

So I’ve been using this product for a little over a year now and I think it’s important for me to come back and provide some insight for those of you that are looking into one or about to pull the trigger.To keep things simple, I would say go for it. There is a ton of stuff in this board! In fact, there is so much and so many capabilities that I feel like I’ve only scratched the surface. Do not be phased by all the other boards that are constantly coming out or throwing ads in your faces, because this one is just as capable, if not more capable than the rest.I have personally sat down and tried the quad cortex, the newer fender tone master, as well as the infamous helix, and I can honestly say that the headrush prime is right up there with all of them. In fact, after playing around with all the others, I’m still sold on the prime.The one thing that I think it outshines the rest in is the interface and touchscreen, although the lack of dedicated software for the computer interface might be the only downside. Believe me, all of us that already on the board have our fingers crossed that it comes out one of these days!Either way, every board out there has its pros and cons, but when the dust settles, I’ll still be rocking my headrush prime!

Not sure where the naysayers are coming from, this thing is AMAZING! if you’re looking for a processor with just a bunch of preloaded rigs ready to plug & play, this might not meet your expectations fresh out of the box. The presets are just fine to get started with, but if you’re looking for customized sound, then you’ll need to put the work in and ACTUALLY CUSTOMIZE THE RIG! And just let me say…HOLY MOLY!!!! Even if you connect to the Cloud and download free IRs (FREE), or rigs from HeadRush artists (FREE), you’ll get darn near ANYTHING you could ever want…or at least pretty close to it! Modify them from there!I haven’t had a chance to use the bass or vocal options yet, but so far I think my favorite features besides the COMPLETELY customizable and THICK tones are the practice and setlist functions. Super intuitive and simple. I can literally play an entire set in completely different genres, popping from rhythm to lead with single pedal clicks…completely changing my sound each time!I love it!

I have the original Headrush and have used it for years. The new unit has stepped it up as far as tone. The new features are great but I am more impressed with the quality of the sounds. If you are a first time user there is a learning curve but it is not hard to use and playing around with it and experimenting is the fun part.
