You know the deal.. You're researching gear and every video has the same guys with the same sounds and the same pitches. Every amp, pedal, modeler etc is the greatest thing since sliced bread. What if we had reviews and demos that cut the BS, removed all the monetary influence, cut out the flashy edits, removed all the post processing and showed you how these things sound in the REAL world with an average player in an average environment? Music gear is expensive and every penny counts. Stop being lied to with flashy demos by paid shills. I buy 100% of the gear I review so there is no bias or outside influence.. The way it should be. I will also post tutorials for rig builds and tone chasers featuring Headrush, Helix, Kemper and other gear for real world use. *I DO own Sonic-DNA.com and will refrain from demoing other companies IRs, Rig Packs and Profiles. Aside from that affiliation everything else is fair game.

Nice video Greg! Do you recommend the setup having a ToneX as the amp + cab with a Headrush MX5 doing the other effects (mod)?
Love the guitar tone! Can you share this profile?
Have you tried it with the Clestion spec cab?
That’s a pretty cool idea, going to have to give that a try.
Hello, I’ve purchased a couple of your rig pack, they’re awesome. I was wanting to get an Alex Liefson tone. Which one of your rig packs would you suggest to achieve that tone. Thanks I’ll be buying your products again real soon.
Impressive Greg! I just ordered a Tonex. I have the HR Pedalboard. I'm interested in how the 2 will work together. I have to figure out how to signal chain them, right?
Ive just been using tonex and amplitude software and making clones with my headrush core. Its working really well. In fact, I just sent back the tonex pedal because I didn't want to use an additional unit for my sound. I just made clones of tonex captures I liked.
this is cool I found this vid I have an original Headrush pedalboard I also have a Tonex pedal coming as soon as IK media sends it out. I keep brainstorming on how i am going to use the Tonex , (maybe in my analog pedal board) I also own a FrFr 112 headrush monitor, I was thinking straight in to that monitor for simplicity not to many options., and through the headrush F/X loop but I thought that could sound messy and out of whack . It seems nice through your prime should be similar hopefully . do you notice any latency or anything to look out for. I thought sometimes using the reverb, compression and noise gate from the tonex and save some blocks for other F/X, delay , drive , wah and volume etc... would be great. also I'm curious about that dynacomp at the end of the chain as opposed to before the tonex ?
My Tonex should be here tomorrow or Tuesday. I also have the original pedalboard. How do you like your new setup?
You play a LOT of GOOD songs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Have you ever tried Fm12 150? wich one is better?
Yes, I have since obtained an FM12. The FM12 is a bit darker. If I can get the time I will do an A_B comparison
Your videos are great sir, love your honesty. Only recently purchased a headrush mx5 and I'm new to signal paths and pedal platforms etc. I have learnt so much from watching just 2 of your videos. Lots of love from here in the UK, rock on brother ❤
I learnt so much from this video, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge brother 👍🎸
Absolutely! If there is anything else I can help with let me know!!
Thanks man!
That would be cool if you could go over the EQ setting. All I can see is freq 1.
Thank you so much, just got a Headrush for Christmas and I was lost with setup settings, this video helped a lot, thank you
A question to understand better what you mean: so in a system that allows putting two IR's one after another, if you'd put two identical IR one next to the other, the result is the same?
tres interressant tout ca mais mon probleme c est que je n ai pas l ir mgb 57 et que dans tout mes ir je n en trouve aucun qui me donne le meme son . Donc a aprtir de la impossible de construire un rig comme le tien greg . pourtant j ai pratiquement acheté tout tes ir .
For me amp in the Room is acheived like this : modeler+poweramp pedal+cabinet speaker. Way better than modeler+frfr
"amp in the room" Needs to be played "in a mix" It was played "in a mix" KZread compression. The speakers you are listening on determine the tone, NOT the original signal chain. The original signal chain is not replicated therefore it can't be replicated. These are all catch phrases used by all the KZread "Review gang." They are all interchangeable and designed to negate any comment positive or negative you may have regarding content. You even mention "good monitors." Good tone is good tone. Play the Black Album on your computer. Sounds great. Play it in mono on an old car stereo. It sounds great. Play it with a 100,000 watt pro audio system at a club and it sounds great. Good tone is good tone. In the room or not.
I can hear a huge difference listening on my phone from listening on my studio monitors.
@@gbarth77I can too, got close while trying the mt15 clones out, but the low end wasn’t coming through as well in my headphones. Have to try again later through my pa and compare the vintage 30 ir’s I’m blending against my real cab to nail it maybe.
Brilliant, Greg!
It also helps if you set the IR mix to 90% instead of 100%, allowing a little bit of the amp's "harsh" frequencies to hit the speaker. I tried this with my HR pedalboard and two HR 108's and it provided a more real feel and amp in the room sound.
sounds great.
I missed it!🥹
Sounds good to me.
Cool thanks.
Thanks for watching!
In the HR Core it has the Para EQ, but it looks totally different than yours and I don’t see the same options?
Hi
Another great demo, para eq is a charm in this unit
Get the capture pack for Tonex here sonic-dna.com/shop/ols/products/sdna-slo100-tonex-capture-pack
havent even finished the video yet and just wanted to say thank you for such a clear, honest and detailed video on these! You hit the nail on the head with the whole cabinet thing, nothing beats it! Those who complain about the heaviness of a cab etc, thats fine, but for people like you and me, nothing can compare!
Yep.... it works!!!! Thanks
There's an exciter module on the Zoom series multieffects (multistomps and the bigger ones). Works great, makes a 1x12 sound like a 4x12.
Except that unit sucks tone like no other unfortunately. Probably can be EQd out but I’ve had 2 MS50Gs and as much as I love the exciter and effects it’s unusable :( I have the sonic stomp mini now. Hopefully the new MS50G+ has solved this.
Now that the honeymoon phase is over, are you still using this at all? Just curious. I’m looking at them right now.
I am still using it paired with a F12M-150 in a ported cab. The 150 fills things out and actually sounds better!
Hey, Thanks for the video a lot! Can you provide more detail abt Soldano IR packs you've used here? I have downloaded Legend and didn't find SOL 57 121 HGX there. Appreciate in advance any link or name of that IR pack from SDNA. Thank you!
Hi which headrush are you using?
The Pedalboard
@@gbarth77 prime???
Original Pedalboard
Marketing mumbo.....im sellin my 362 ...
i've been using the fx send on my prime to input on my stomp XL, output of stomp XL to return on my prime. how are you connecting to the LT, i don't see a fx loop on the headrush screen. i would have to guess you are using the output of the headrush to the fx return on the LT and the fx send on the LT to the input of the headrush and your guitar is in the LT input?
hi . you mentioned updating the pro producer pack , with the real feels . are you planning on doing that ? or have you already . i have the pro producer pack and would like to get the real feels ,
Yes sir. The RealFeel GB Pro is now available
@@gbarth77 thanks for letting me know greg . just bought them . cheers dude
greg i appreciate this video . this has helped me loads . as have some of your other videos . the flanger trick on another video works very well . cheers dude , keep making them headrush packs dude . my little mx5 now sounds great , thanks to your packs and videos . D.
Dude! As a brand new user and score of a pedalboard.....this made me love this rig even more. Thank you for not just being riff guy playing metal.....I appreciate the work you put into this and you have a great ear!
Thanks brother! If you ever need help or have questions feel free to ask. Rock on!
Good stuff! Thanks for this video and your great IRs! Subscribed
Perfect. Can the prime clone this?
That's a great question! I will have to try it!
I bought into the hype as well because "phase aligning the low and high frequencies" in order to add clarity sounds like something every guitarist would want. Highly disappointed that it's literally just eq that boosts the high and low frequencies. I took the pedal off my board because it added a fair bit of noise but i guess it's nice to know i can achieve the exact same effect on my HX Stomp with the built in global eq.
It's also on the xr 18 mixer as sound maxer and it's awesome
How do I do this on the helix parametric
Let me mess around with it on Helix and I'll make a video when I get it figured out
@@gbarth77 thank you so much greatly appreciated
I use it too and helix sounds way better and yet everyone tells me it sucks....what are they smoking....
Great video Greg. I'm still using your IR's which work great when playing any type of music. Best wishes from the UK 😎😎👍👍
awesome man, will give me some ideas when I have the time to play around with mine
Howdo Lee. Haven't bumped into you yet at any of the Northern Guitar Shows but will at some point. All the best from the Lake District✌✌🎶🎶🎶🎶😎😎😎😎
@@digital-guitars-uk Hey bud, I'll be at the Haydock Park one the hairy one with the camera lol. All the best from S Yorks 🤘🤘🤘
Send my mix 5 back after testing it, there is nothing special about it. The fx quality is really bad, non e of their fix sounding great. And it’s not usable with an iPad as interface, latency all over the place. Every low budget interface is working without noticeable latency except the headrush. Very poor drivers, I’m waiting for the TONEX pedal….all the modelers on the market are crap, either lacking in amp sim, fx, or as usb interface.
I have no latency with the MX5. Maybe you got a lemon. I've never heard a reviewer mention it either. 🤔
@@metalmadsteve plugged in an iPad causes huge latency, all my other interfaces running smooth on the iPad.
@@jorvten360 Ahh, I see. I've never used it to record.
are you using the latest firmware version
