[@HeadRushFX]

Feature update 2.7 is also available for Pedalboard, Gigboard, and MX5 owners! Head over to www.headrushfx.com/downloads.html to download the update!

[@dirpyjosh]

No Synth!?!?!

[@diegoliz]

No synth?

[@dirpyjosh]

Don't get me wrong. I'm grateful you guys are still updating the machine all these years later. I just don't understand how a synth cannot be processed through the same hardware.

[@jakemixd]

Why no synth 😩

[@dirpyjosh]

@@jakemixd I believe the older models can't handle them somehow

[@GUILLE-nu8rv]

faaaantastic! the added routing options for guitar/vocal and bluetooth connection thru powering cycles were at the top of my list. the added synth fx were a great surprise and same with the distortion. Lovely to see continued development - well done HeadRush team!!!

[@yhonmontes]

So far the only thing we are missing is a desktop editor, other than that, I love my Core!

[@Scott__C]

Especially with the full sized unit. The UI is nice and works well, but the convenience of the computer editor would be great. I think it would bring in more users.

[@BassGods]

As soon as I turned on my Prime, it said Firmware Update available. And it just brought a Big ol smile to my face. This is Crazy! Piano on my Bass? Lol

[@diegolouback]

Excellent! Specially the path with 2 blocks for vocals and 12 for guitar! Thanks!!

[@martenbrandsma3300]

THEY GOT THE MORNING GLORY!!! The last pedal I purchased before the Prime. Such a bummer I didn't get to clone it properly. SO HAPPY WITH THIS UPDATE. Y'all rock!

[@Mattguitarmania]

I am so psyched to try out these new synth presets and especially glad to hear them fixed the Bluetooth connectivity problem and made it possible to keep Bluetooth on through on/off cycles.

[@jdfenix7]

Hell yeah! Can you please add the ability to record multiple loops for instant playback while I'm playing a song? That would put this unit way ahead of most fx units. Think boss rc-600/500.

[@AriaMehr648]

That synth really works. I love everything about the HeadRush Core. I use it for guitar, vocals, and especially Setar. Thanks to all the HeadRush geniuses.

[@themetalghost]

holy synthwave.. Where Can I follow Duncan to hear more of that? Love me some synthwave with guitar and wanting to make my own 80's arcade style jamz since I grew up and lived those fun 80's times!

@@HeadRushFX Thank you!

[@stevetyson1254]

Sweet, love to see it!

[@HeadRushFX]

Glad you like it!

[@willman100]

Wicked... The Glorious drive is Glorious. The latency has improved as well on the Core.. Great unit...

[@Singlehand_Music]

Great chops dude 👍

[@tjnathan]

In love with the he updates and all but would love an editor! It would be super helpful when doing long sound design sessions.

[@lying_in_wait]

Awesome, especially the chain Blocks for guitar and vocals! The Synths and OD's sounds also great! Now we need a Software Editor, pleeeaaaase! Great work, thanks!🥰🤘

[@steveclark9934]

This is so awesome happy I purchased the core really love the additional block options for the microphone and guitar hell of a demo intro fantastic job❤

[@neudobniy_gorod]

Thanks for the update! This is awesome!!!

[@dudsguitarist]

I’m so sad I only have the pedalboard now lol the synth effects are so dope, and what I’ve really been into lately.

[@digital-guitars-uk]

Great new I've been creating synth sad just using the headrush stock effects for a while just look at my ambient playlist on my channel however with these new effects will open a whole lot of interesting sounds for me now. Best wishes 🎶🎶🎶🎶😊😊😊😊

[@mjusick42]

I'm really glad that Headrush is still alive! 😂 I thought the company had given up (due to a lack of response in the forum). Great new features, I'll test them out when I get the chance. What bothered me (and I'm sure many others) the most were the missing MIDI features. Are there any improvements in this area too?

[@Axiom_Link]

Well now I can take my extra 3 reverbs off the rig to simulate stacked sustain 😂

[@pjs7971]

This is great. Looking forward to playing with all this. Any idea if there will ever be a Mac version of the Prime App to create rigs then download direct to the Prime? Lastly, it would be nice to create custom paths instead of being locked into the ones that are there. Love the product! And Duncan, love your playing style!

[@HeadRushFX]

We appreciate your feedback!

[@IsaacValdivia]

Man in there only was a Slicer/Goat customisable kind of tremolo included I'd purchase the Headrush Prime right away

[@milkdud3618]

Just in time. Was on verge of getting a K9 pedal. No need now

[@moroboshidan7960]

I don't have a prime/core, but an mx-5. The synth seems like a lot of fun, but I guess that prime/core users will welcome the new paths more, at least the ones who use the vocal part.

[@patrickjuhasz8047]

Looks great but a more customizable signal path for one guitar would be nice.

[@BassGods]

Thank you Soooooo Much. You guys are Awesome. Keep them updates coming Rock Star.

[@mmarks9723]

I don't think anything was done to improve vocal effects? Am I wrong?

[@sampereira1267]

Hi, have you added the option to split/pan the outputs so that you can have two mono xlr and two mono jack outputs. These routing options would allow users to send different signals (guitars and vocals) to mixers and real amps in live situations. This would make this machine the perfect one for singers (and doesn’t really matter if you loose the stereo options). Thanks!!!

[@atalayo3o0o]

Amazing, good job! Thanks!

[@outlawfrank88]

I noticed that when I turn on Again Delay, the volume of the preset rises by about 2db, and the sound of the entire preset becomes brighter. Pleas fix this!

[@sduck409]

Excellent! Now can we get the desktop/mobile editor that users have actually been asking for?

[@PreetparnaGhosh]

I am a user of Headrush from past 3 years. Please include a computer software

[@Valisthean]

Just got the email, thanks guys :)

[@JoshuaMRichard]

I'm actually very impressed by the poly tracking of that hybrid synth. Cool update!

[@二加二]

Polyphonic pitch to midi tracking... The next update can add a poly tuner?

[@hackerbuff]

Tnx Headrush. Can we have an app and/or software editor please? My back gets sore 😢

[@mjusick42]

I have now installed the new firmware. I was very horrified to see that nothing has been improved regarding the missing MIDI(out) implementation. It's a shame, maybe we could organize crowd funding to help Headrush make the device and in particular the insert path really useful? I ordered an H9 along with the Core because I knew that the reverbs and delays on the Core aren't that great (I didn't expect that either). But unfortunately I can't really switch programs comfortably because each MIDI PC can only be used once (which is completely impractical!). It can't be that difficult, MIDI is really a simple protocol. Perhaps there is a programmer who can help Headrush a bit? I would also contribute financially because I don't think the Core is bad otherwise (including the new things in the current firmware update [I could have done without the guitar synth, the tracking is rather mediocre]). Or could Headrush release the firmware as open source? The question is how to get in touch with someone from Headrush, which seems to be very difficult (see forum...). My sad solution is to rip the H9 off the board, use the Core alone and do without the good effects. I would have been better off buying the ToneX pedal, which sounds better and is much cheaper. I actually only bought the Core because of the loop, but unfortunately you can't really use it if you can't switch the presets when the effect is looped in (unless you always use the same effect or you always have to switch 2 switches or the effect doesn't have MIDI anyway). Or is there a hidden miracle solution?

[@cliffdykes1171]

Awesome!

[@mervinramos5181]

Tnx Headrush!❤️

[@steveclark9934]

If headrush doesn't want to make a software editor maybe they could mirror the screen via USB out to a tablet/screen monitor so I could manipulate the settings on a desk or at eye level so I won't have to bend over and reach for the floor constantly to change settings I think that's the problem most people have in regards to wanting the software editor. Am I right about this?

[@Darknight3701_]

That's a good idea (mirroring)

[@mattiafaccioli8284]

Is it normal that I have latency with the Hybrid synth block on Headrush Core? How can I remove it? Thanks ❤️

[@dantasv8guitar]

Please add Bluetooth audio sending

[@Tomtoms-tomtoms]

I just bought Prime 3 weeks ago and LOVE it, now this is an exciting update 👌🙏☘️☘️☘️

[@halidharis]

What about mx5? Any update soon?😢

[@iann8733]

Your email advertising this says it’s also for the mx5. However, the description of this video says it’s only for prime and core. Why?

[@HeadRushFX]

Feature update 2.7 is also available for Pedalboard, Gigboard, and MX5 owners! Head over to www.headrushfx.com/downloads.html to download the update!

[@neudobniy_gorod]

Has anyone tried sending midi notes to a harmonizer processor? It switches effects and pedals via midi just fine. But when I send notes, there is no reaction I want to use this for vocals so I don't have to create an endless number of presets

[@luispereira1177]

I can find the new synth FX (Hybrid Synth, Electric Piano, DB-33) and three other exciting FX (Glorious Drive, White Bass Wah, and Sustain in my headrest Gigboard I do the update...can one help me?

[@HeadRushFX]

These synth pedals can be found on the Prime and Core in firmware 3.2! For Pedalboard, Gigboard, and MX5 users, update 2.7 delivers three new FX (Glorious Drive, White Bass Wah, Ten Freq EQ). We’ve also added a few minor bug fixes and DSP optimizations.

[@TimberMoto]

Are any of these effects going to work on the MX5?

Please make a PC Software tweak Headrush products

[@AriaMehr648]

I believe that the Headrush Core (+pedal) is a complete game-changer, from the first steps of learning to rocking the stages.

[@dpoultski2499]

Is MX-5 done with updates??

[@mmiller6873]

Great question. Certainly hope they don't stop supporting their product.

[@Valisthean]

@@mmiller6873 was the 2.7 just released? or has it been out for a while? the email makes it look like 2.7 was just released

[@iann8733]

I just looked into this. Along with prime/cores update today, the mx5 also got 2.7 which adds the glorious drive pedal and the white bass wah but NOT the synth, electric piano and organ effects that are present in this video. I'm very disappointed about this

[@mmiller6873]

I have the Gigboard. Bought it a year ago so does this firmware update work for Gigboard as well?

[@DoctorMcFarlandStudios]

You will need firmware 2.7 but does not include the synth FX of the Prime and Core. Headrush Core is $699 right now.

Good looking update, but still no desktop editor...😒 I should've gone with the Valeton.

[@LivinginLosAngeles-re5yx]

LOL.....in no universe is Valeton anywhere close to Prime/Core. Had the Valeton 200 and the overdrives were dreadful. 🤣

[@yhonmontes]

You must be kidding!

[@PocketDelicious]

@@yhonmontes Only slightly. I don't understand why the cheapest modelers have desktop editors but they don't.

[@joshuazoil]

I was a Headrush user for 4 years, I have now moved over to Fractal (having a desktop editor now makes things so fast and even easier) Biggest downside to Headrush no desktop editor👎🏾

[@PocketDelicious]

@@joshuazoil I also have a Line 6 Helix so I understand how the desktop editor is so helpful. I might just have to spring for the Quad Cortex after their last update. Smaller form factor, powerful, and sounds terrific.

[@二加二]

Still no software or app? I dunno why headrush is so struggle to making an editing software/app for it. Even the cheap china brands like mooer, valeton, m-vave, flamma have editing software. Some of them even have phone edit app that can connect via bluetooth.

What about the MX5....do you let the MX5 users down on that!?

All done with Headrush after they released Prime with alot of features they could have updated the original board with... When that happened, I threw my Headrush into the dumpster with a resounding FU !!! Good ridance... 💥
