Hey guys, Once again, the Headrush Pedalboard shows how good it can sound with different tones! Amazing piece of gear for the price You'll have to excuse the out of focus shots once again! Still getting used to this new camera! Thanks for watching Rabea

Rabea Massaad hey what's the name of the color for that ML1 ur playing?

SO many great players on tube, plenty far more “technical” players with more absolute ability but very very few can play with so much natural talent and a natural channel of emotion than this guy.... just brilliant. Keep going.

Totally agree

I've had mine for a week and I'm really enjoying it, so easy to use. Headrush rocks !

i just bought one today, after two weeks of watching reviews and youtube videos, also i went to the store and tried the helix, i went buying a headrush... im a former Hd500x user. But the headrush will save my time easier to use and esit tones. Time is gold... 👍🏼

Instrumentalists Jade How does it compare to the HD500x? Does it really sound that much better?

Thank you so much for this competent demo of what it can really do. Other reviews hadn't led me to believe it was anything special, but the tones you got are fantastic. Plus the stereo rig example is exactly what I was looking for. Great stuff!

Very cool. I just picked up a used Headrush Pedalboard on Reverb, and came across your demo. Thanks for the tips. I can't wait to get mine!

this headrush is beyond amazing thumbs up all the way,every an absolutley any style or gendre of music you play can easily get the sound you want

Duuuude! It sounds awesome! Keeps integrity of the tone of the Strato, that really sounds like a Strato, as it supposed to. Great piece of gear!

Bea touches on a huge point, order of effects matters. Many of us wouldnt think of this, but it matters. 👍

HI mate, really great demo and playing!!! Now I am tempted to get one!! Thanks again

Rabea, that was fully sick. what a massive opening tone on a strat. love your feel on the guitar.

You're one of the few artists out there who can get the very best out of this kind of gear! So many demos ruin this kind of tech for me personally. You bring out the most usable and musical tones these things have to offer. Thanks!

OMG BEA YOUR ARE MAKING THEM GAINS! Lol You are awesome at what you do. Keep up the absolutely amazing and impeccable work my friend.

3:24, that patch is macho!!! I love the fuzz behind the lead gain!

Im just here for Rabea's playing, can't get enough of it.

Enjoy these vids you've been making of the Headrush and especially the ambient riffs you've been doing, they sound great. There seems a big difference between the presets and the custom patches so the more custom tones videos, the more idea we can all get of tones it's capable of. Any future vids showing the wah, or any shootouts you could do with other gear are much appreciated, as I'm trying to choose between this, Ax8 and Helix. The layout of this seems great, just a question mark of the tones.

I think the Headrush is for me, thanks for the demo Bea. I'm sold, I had Kemper and Helix on the short list but I like the pedalboard feel of this one plus touch screen. I don't gig, I play at home with limited time so patches are for me.

Fantastic review and playing as per usual Bea🍻🤘🏻👍🏻

Bea, you're an effing beast on that geetar!!! Love your reviews! Thanks.

I´d love to sing along to some of your jams....so much feeling...so Karnivoolesque. Love it.

Great demo man! Thanks for the effort.

Thank you for the review! EXACTLY what I wanted to know!

Great review, really gave me a good insight...thanks!

You sound soooooo good with a Strat. You sound sooo good with a Strat... please, use it more often!!!

The Dark Side of the Moon hair trick; the best part of the video!!

DAT intro riff on 1:55 was so awesome I forgot about video trying to get it right in drop B tuning, and ... luckily I did!

Love The Strat! Love the HeadRush..Love Your Talented Tones !!😀🎸🎼Peace n Great Vibes Bea!!!✌👍

You are good with ackord melody mix Amazing feeling i subbed

I just picked this pedalboard up and I am glad I did.

Thanks for the demo.......nice SOUNDS.........

Awesome job. I just bought one.

Great video/playing! It would be awesome if you would do a comparison of the the Headrush vs. real amps and pedals just to see how it stacks up to the real thing. Those of us who are on the fence on these digital modeling things would greatly appreciate it. Thanks for doing these videos!

Bought one. Leaving my amp and cab at home since. My back is very happy but most of all the sound is great Straight to the PA. Sometimes I use in ears for monitor mostly do not bother.

loving the reverb in my right ear

Great reverb and tones from there.

I'd love the tab for that intro piece. Outstanding dude.

wow great playing!

Love the focus and the post sharpen haha

One day I'll be able to afford a Custom shop guitar too lol. Awesome guitar Bea!

great sound, wow

Sounds great!

sounds so awesome

I just noticed that you have the exact same neon guitar light that I have had since .. Well, I bought mine in around 2004 .. Way cool! I also have the blue Fender neon light .. But no way does my studio look that complete .. Still working on it ..

Thank you, Rabea.

Sounds very interesting! I would like to ask: 1) Would you recommend it over a Line6 Helix? 2) Would you recommend it for the FX and expression pedal only, in case I got myself a nice amp (I really am into the Blackstar HR20R these days...) Thank you! Rock on

Can't wait to see you get your hands on the Prime!

Ahh I don’t think I’ll be looking at it to be honest. I heard some sound clips and wasn’t overly impressed with the tones I heard. Personally I’m really happy with the Quad Cortex for what I do. I may be biased towards the brand, however I wouldn’t allow my biases to compromise what I use for my music and professionally on tour etc. just my thoughts

That tone at 3.10 is enough for me to have serious GAS!!!! 1🤘🤘

Just ordered a Head Rush to use as effects only in 4-cable method with my Friedman Be 50 and 4x12 cab. I was hoping to possible replace the heavy Friedman head but thus far I have yet to hear a mid to high gain tone that did not sound fizzy on the top end. That is the instant give away to my ears. Maybe that is just over YT and once i get the HR into my studio it will sound better.....let's hope. It would be ideal to have the HR into a clean power amp into the 4x12 cab but not sure that would sound good enough. looking forward to trying it out. Great video B!

Get a mooer baby bomb and delete the cab block on the headrush, connect them to your 4x12 (if it is 8 or 16 ohm) and you'll have an amazing sound and very loud!!!

Just ordered one of these with the free 108 speaker. Only £774 from GG.

I was tempted to take advantage of that deal myself but I can’t decide if the helix line 6 is worth the extra moolah lol!

Headrush seems awesome and really powerfull, but honestly I was just really digging your playing on this video. What would you think about building a rig with the headrush and a solidstate stereo power amp like a rocktron velocity or similar?

Hi Rabea. Great work as ever. I’m fairly new to playing so I don’t know all the different tones & settings if all the makes of amps & pedals. A mate looked at the list of amps on my headrush & made a guess at some but is there a list available which will tell you which makes the various models on the board are designed to mimic as I have no clue. When I watch your sounds like videos I don’t know which pedals or amps etc to choose from my headrush aa I don’t know which they are. Keep up the good work. Ooh & for kicks could you do a sounds like big country vid? Ebows everywhere!!

Does anybody know what videos can i watch on how pedals and pedalboards work. how to put them together and all this stuff he's talking about? Would much appreciate it!!

New game! Everytime Bea says "to be honest" take a drink. Everytime he says "to be fair" finish your beer 👍 Another great vid man!

Great demo. I’m interested to know if you still use it and how it sounds at gig levels ?

great vid man

Hey Man! Great Video - Question though, the big sell point on paper is the effect bleed and zero latency changes - how does this beast perform going from Heavy patches to clean patches with different effect settings?

looking at getting this and one of the chapman baritone guitars soon...

Thanks for the video! You said in the video it has two effects loops, but it looks like one stereo loop. Can you split them in the global settings and have two separate mono loops??

Deffinetley getting this

Could you make a video of you just playing, jamming, just you and your guitar. I would love that.

Thanks for a very simple, straightforward demo. This Headrush interface really sells itself, though. Do you have any experience using the FX Loop(s)? If so, how is the sound performance? FX loops on on some processors seem to be after thoughts for the manufacturers, and don't really perform that well. I'm particularly interested in running line outs from other processors into the Headrush. Any impressions you can post would be appreciated. rgds

Ordered one now :)

good demo

Got it.....Love it

Really great pedalboard demo. Have you tried the Line 6 Helix LT, which had better Amp models?

This pedal looks fantastic but for the price I'm much more interested in the Zoom G5n. I know the Zoom isn't as ergonomic as the Headrush but I was wondering was what your opinion on the Zoom in comparision to this one. Are the sound of the Zoom satisfying for you and is the expression pedal easy to use ?

You have the experience with (I think) all the modelers available. Which one you prefer?

I think you missed using the 4 chord method. You can run with board separating the pre amp and power amp of a blackstar lets say. Than you can decide which board FX you in front of blackstar pre amp, or after that and before the power amp. Also the IR downloads you can put on here. I gotta get me one of these.

5:26 Does the 'Overall Compressor' and mono signal path around it, make the signal mono? Didn't sound very stereo imho

Good Review. I'm loving the Headrush every minute. Thank you.

How do you like this in co parison to Kemper stage?

Is there a pitch adjuster pedal? Besides the whammy which does that, i need something that let's us adjust to specific semitones.

Rabea can you share what tuning you're using? You seem to always use it and I love the tones you get out of it.

Hi Rabea, great demo. Really Cool!! Let me ask you do you prefer the Headrush or the Line 6 Helix Floor. I have the Line 6 HX Stomp but I want to buy the Headrush or the Line 6 Helix Floor? Can you help?

Rabea your opening jam sounds like an Opeth song. ALSO You guys neeeeeed to do Sounds Like Opeth on Andertonstv. That or sounds like Death. Trying to get their solo/lead tone would be awesome I think. IDK if Andertons have BC Rich though?

Is it possible to do automation with the headruch? For exemple with abletone and program th whammy... Thanks

I am curious, do you think any string noise is bleeding through your vocal microphone? It seems like I can hear a little, the unit definitely sounds killer, but I'm wondering if some of that chime/string attack is bleeding through the room mic? Great feel/playing btw!

Plus u can get your own IR"s into the pedalboard which will improve big time each amp's

Rabea, have you ever been asked to do a tour with a popular, big artist.. Like what Pete Thorn does. I think it would be great to see you with a first class headliner..

Great videos ✌🏼✌🏼️✌🏼️✌🏼️

So if I guy like me was torn between the Headrush and the Atomic AmpliFlire 12. How would one go about making the right decision?? Anyone done a side by side? Anyone have an opinion?

PS. Great review I have a Helix but, great tones !

Hi Rabea. do not be so hard on yourself xD 4min14, we do not care, it's a demo. we love you. thank you for your review and your originality. We need you to give us your opinion for helix vs headruch. it's difficult for everyone, including me. I expected you to slice. big thanks to you. ps: when will you come with your group toska in FRANCE 🇫🇷 ?

Love the song at the beginning, is that in dropped D?

That's a GREAT riff dude, love that shit 3:24

Hi Bea, I know you have had close ties with Boss recently. I've not found anything better than my GT-Pro, The Delay and quality is right up there with the 500 series. I use pedals mainly. It's always handy to have a swiss army knife quality multi effects to practice and inspire. My GT-Pro is poorly and wonder where you rate the headrush in comparison. I don't want amp sim or front end effects like dest/OD. Just effects you would put in the loop. UI is of no issue to me. What would you replace a GT-pro with based on sound and effect quality alone. Cheers my friend. Stay safe in these strange times.

Did you record the session directly by plugging the pedalboard to your audio interface?

Hi Bea how does the sound quality of the Headrush effects compare to the Strymon gear ❓🇨🇮🎸

This has some things others do not which will help if you are a guitarist that records by yourself. It is an audio interface through USB. You can plug in head phones or speakers to the out put and listen to full stereo playback. You can jam through your monitors, record with direct and effects separate so you can also reamp later, and you have footswitches so, unlike most software, you can switch stuff live while recording. I don't like modeling amps and have no need for them. I do need an easy but quality way to record real sounding and feeling guitars. Use a load box like Radial or Motu make, use a couple powered speakers or some headphones and a fast laptop and you have a decent studio to go.

I want a speaker setup for bedroom volumes, frfrs are too loud. what should i do? I don't want to play with headphones

I'm sorry if I missed it, but was the pedal paired with an amp or was this direct input from the pedal to the mixer and you just played it over your monitors for your own needs? I think this is a stellar device and love the sound it generates. I am leaning towards buying one because I only have about 550sqft to work with where I live and can't justify multiple amps and pedals and such. I originally bought a Line 6 Spider IV (boo) to try and minimize how much space I occupied at home but still have versatility and keep all my other stuff out and about and, you know, my wife needs some space, too :P.

Can you plug this straight into a cab or do you need a power section to run through first?

Where might we find the settings for Rabea's new rig??

Hey Rabea can you share the rig/tones you created with the Headrush?

Can you tell me about the spillover feature?

Would you buy this over the Fractal Axe effects. Pedal board

Hey Rabea... how does this (or their newer one) compare with the Helix?

Hey Bea. Can you run the Headrush directly into a cab? Cant seem to figure that out

I am bouncing between the Headrush & Helix. I would be playing this thru a slightly broken up Fender style amp for Allman/Crowes tones 90% of the time with some VH/STP tones now and then. After watching countless videos I feel they both have good tone, but the Helix seems to have time on its side with most of the bugs worked out and would be a better choice if I don't really care about the touch screen interface. I would think once you got your tones down, how often are you really going to mess with it other than a tweak now and then. I've called MF asking if the Helix will be on sale and they said the Helix & HR are currently price locked due to demand and no sale or discounts can be used. I might just pull the trigger, but as of right now.... It's the Helix 4 me. What do you guys think?

If i were to hook this to a pa, would i use speaker cables or instrument cables? and hooking to the return on my amp what cable would i use? by the way you rock!! Very nice playing

Fran S use instrument or patch cables. Speaker cables don't usually have the same shielding and can induce or pickup noise.
