This is NOT a Pedalboard... It's a MACHINE

Glad to finally see someone using the headrush instead of a kemper... Great Work!!!!

I used to think I had bad gear acquisition syndrome, until Mike started getting sponsored by sweetwater. Now I feel like I need more gear

You're telling me bro.

Every time I’ve had an itch to buy gear. I remind myself, I need to practice more.

[@gregmiller7123]

@@RockWonder210You’re right about practicing….but that doesn’t stop me from getting gear! 😂

[@TravisCrown-g4c]

The smile at the 5:52 mark is why we all should be playing music. Does not matter what gear. That happiness is what we should all be after. Mike, love the channel. Much needed. Stay true to yourself. Keep doing what you love.

[@greenwave792]

I'm a blues player,homie,this is as heavy as I get..............thats why I sub to your channel.

[@nicholasaragon4126]

True story. Mike always treating us to great tones. Everyone else is always demonstrating chug chug widdly widdly widdly, which isn't really any help.

[@Return2TheLiving]

Been using the Original Headrush for years and love it. The community was a bit small, so you are a bit on your own in terms of tones. HRP seems to be received really well so I think that won’t be an issue.

[@happypluto6870]

And my dad have played the first Headrush pedal board and have been looking for what it was for YEARS! As soon as I saw this I remembered! I know what I’m getting him for Christmas this year

[@kevinrinehart]

Mike are you still loving the Silver Sky????

[@meloche1syndrome]

4:17 I've been thinking of upgrading my valeton. Instantly "that's it!"

[@ZeekBurse]

“Bro it’s like a spaceship 🚀.. lol” Cool display of this unit. Just preferred mine today!!!

[@benjaminnaidoo9776]

I'm using an mx5, much cheaper than expanding my old pedalboard or lugging around my combo amp. Sounds great, and gives me tonnes of features I wouldn't have with a traditional setup (consistent tones, USB for recording, different amps and cabs literally at my feet).

[@MrFlexitron]

Ok. I'm a HELIX LT and ToneX user. I've always wanted to hear other options. I probebly wont switch but I've heard great things about the Headrush. I also think its funny that many HELIX and amp modeler users will purchase a Headrush FRFR cabinet/floor monitors to use. Hahaha. Anyway, I know I've already rambled on way too much. Mike, I like your content. Keep it coming mate.

[@carlparna]

i have the mx5 very affordable.....and extremely usable and i love the effects pedals that you can add, adjust, etc plus i love their looper

[@TheShaq44]

How does it do playing live? I’m thinking of getting one because dealing with tube amps is just getting a little restless for me and as much as I love them, they are very sensitive. Yesterday I had an outside gig and it was my last straw dealing with them

[@carlparna]

@@TheShaq44 it does a really good job ....very stable sounds...and you can pick the pedals you want so many!!.i pick five sounds for my set list for Catholic worship Mass ... I use the MX5 when i m alone sing and play because the piano player i play with doesn t like when i use effects pedals.... MX5 creates alot of space for me when i m playing alone at other gigs ( one man band)

[@bobbywhitlock6841]

Got the Prime the day the released it and I love it. I currently use it in a rock cover band and a country band. Have not gigged with an amp for years! I am currently running a Dr Z clone from Greg Barth at Sonic DNA (HIGHLY RECOMMEND his rigs/IR's) and I could not be happier. I used the pedalboard for about 3 years with no issues gigging almost every weekend. I loaded all my pedalboard rigs into the Prime and they all had more clarity and personality. I don't think there is a better "all in One" board on the market.

[@sonicbluestrat934]

YOU CAN SING, MIKE! Jack and I loved watching this one :)

[@MuckingAboutWith]

Great video Mike! That Princeton tone was awesome, I don't have a Prime yet, but you upped the GAS.. ;)

[@yoshowa]

This unit but the size of the stomp xl, if they can manage to pull that off with the singer feature, and 6-8 buttons instead of 4 like the gigaboard, I think they would overtake the market. Great video.

[@MrTPF1]

Haven't tried the big floor units, but from what I've heard, they're pretty impressive. If they were available when I started gigging, I probably would have gotten one.

[@dannymichel]

Can you load a loop you previously saved by using the foot switches or do you need to bend down and use you finger on the screen. I want to load saved loops during a show without crouching down each time. Can't find any info on that in the manual or videos so far. Thanks

[@edruiz1202]

I’m still rocking my original headrush pedal Board and love it. Maybe one day I’ll upgrade to this one. Congrats and glad you like it.

[@jwstout007]

I NEED to see how this does with their vocal harmonizer and looper. This thing could be an all in one for solo artists and I'm kinda chomping at the bit to try it out!

[@christianbarnes7067]

Your awesome bro been watching for a while and your content has grown and is unique. Your great!

[@marshunnaclark5829]

Do you believe in life after love. Lol but I gotta save up to get one of these.

[@tomblankinship4750]

I was Mr. Analog for the longest time until my pedalboard failed at an outdoor gig. I had previously purchased a used HD500X for an insanely low price, but didn’t take the time to learn it. After the pedalboard incident, I dived in and further got a Variax to go with it. Finally, I upgraded to a Helix floor and won’t ever go back.

[@ThePaddedPedalroom]

Great video, congrats on getting the Prime it is a great unit! Cheers!

[@stevetyson1254]

Welcome to the Headrush Prime family, hope you upload your Princeton clone to the cloud.

[@paradoxyl5876]

I have the headrush pedalboard and just bought the prime recently . I love the Prime it's awseome

[@Bridging_the_Political_Divide]

Same here. The Prime is very impressive.

[@mojo_plasma]

Good job!! Great production value!!!

[@stephenupton]

I have the core, great peace of kit , and size I’m enjoying the versatility of this board

[@jefferybravo]

I got the Headrush Mx5- played a few gigs with it and had a lot of compliments for my tone! Last gig the sound man liked it so much he said he was going to buy one- after seeing what the prime can do I may need to pick it up!!

[@davemonty8979]

Dude you must try FRACTAL!!! lol Welcome to the digital realm homie 🤘

[@nedim_guitar]

I've been into digital modellers since way back. I've owned a Boss GT-8 and a Line 6 Pod HD Pro. And, well, I spent more time tweaking tone than playing. Option paralysis, I guess. But then in early 2021, I decided to build a pedalboard, and I haven't looked back since! I have a great couple of core tones, but I also gave a lot of versatility, I can put a lot of colour in there. I've never played more than I do now. If I had done this ten years earlier, who knows where I would have been by now, musically speaking.

[@CedricSatterfield]

I love that 'steel' sound you had in the intro

[@akwamarsunzal]

It was fun watching the video man! Love it!

[@denizgunes3672]

We gotta get Mike to listen to Gojira.

[@Kennardy]

Dude, great intro composition! More!

[@ernieb3626]

look at you go Mike. if they had a class to teach a 53 year old teenager how to use this I would buy it right now

[@robinr22]

Honestly I'm convinced that the headrush is aimed at older users - large clear touch screen, mostly vintage amps and models but without pages and pages of unnecessary stuff, really straightforward to use, I've never even looked at the manual for my Gigboard. So you'd probably be fine to pick one up 😉

[@lperry65]

Recently got the HRP, coming from Kemper and Helix world. It is slightly wider than the Helix but it feels lighter, I've created a acoupe of patches and cloned a few of my Amps ( Search for DP40 on the cloud ) and I think it sounds great. But the best thing I've found is how quickly I can dial in a tone, I used to spend far too long tone chasing but on the prime I seem to get the tone I'm looking for realy quickly. Not sure if it's the touch screen UI or the amp/effects tones, but I've noticed I'm playing guitar more and tweeking less which is great :)

Hi Mike, i subscribed recently to you channel because I like the way you make your contents here on youtube and I wanna support your channel, great video as always but I noticed in more videos that your guitar signal its a bit low, don't worry to turn up your guitar volume in the mix, we want to listen you play guitar. Don't know where's the problem or if anyone noticed that, anyway it's just an advice, hope you'll find the best solution. Keep goin and rock&roll! Greetings from Italy. Cheers :)

[@erikrummel6277]

I still have a POD X3 Live. It seems big but for an all in one guitar, bass and vocals solution it is NOT big...

[@DieselWeazel]

Great video! How about showing us how you record tracks in your computer. I’m trying to build my own studio.

[@MrJessietyson]

That pink silver sky is gorgeous

[@GildedEntries]

I’m new to your channel, enjoying as much as learning a great deal. The complete “I’m a blues player, homie…” is a great quote do you sell that on a T-shirt?

[@garryoberholtzer5626]

I prefer the helix but floorboard systems are amazing for live shows. So much more reliable and they almost always sound better through the PA using custom IRs. It’s the control you have, the consistency, and the lower stage volume that really sell it. Even if you’re an old fashion guy. You can still use a monitor for feedback or a real cab with a power amp for a stage sound. All that and your whole rig fits in a backpack.

[@63timfred]

Thanks for the video Mike. No one ever shows the full set up when they demo these. How are you listening to the sound in the room? If you buy one of these do you then need to go and purchase fancy studio monitors? What's the deal? Thanks again for all you content, love the Silver Sky.

[@akevbot]

Generally if you're a bedroom player with a decent pair of headphones or studio monitors, you're good to use those... Or you can get an FRFR speaker for amp-like volume. For band stuff you can run it straight through a PA as well.

[@aaronstone628]

What’s that strap you’re using? Really cool looking, I’d love to see what that brand offers

[@MarcEdwindelosReyes]

The last multi-effects/floorboard unit I used was the Line 6 Floor Pod Plus. That's like 9 years ago. I never really liked the sound of it. So I went analog. Now I think I'm ready to try again. With all the tech that has been coming out, it's definitely worth trying now.

[@pipespeeps5349]

the line 6s notoriously has/had kinda bad Cabinet simulations, but modelling now especially Cab sims are wayy better now. totally recommend going that route

[@MarcEdwindelosReyes]

@@pipespeeps5349 when the Headrush Prime came out I was like I definitely want to have one but I can't get over the fact that the Helix Floor/LT has way better flexibility in terms of choices of sound and tones.😅

[@landon.cunningham]

Mono?

[@maclainlawson4648]

What plug-ins did you use for those drums? I’m looking for different plugins and I really liked that one… also, just played a helix for the first time literally last night at a church event I was playing electric at (I usually just use an amp sim on my board) and bruh it changed my whole perspective

[@fadlyhans82]

May I know what kinda speakers should I get if I were to invest in these pedalboards? I don’t have the space for my tube amps and such. I’ve got loads of pedals I bought and only have time to play on weekends only. I don’t gig and such. Anyone can recommend a model to me? TIA

I like the idea, but I can’t get over how huge the Headrush and Helix are. Not sure I am ready for that, lol

[@Groovegandalf]

honestly, once you don't have to carry giant amps and a pedal board, the burden is a lot less. It is my entire bass rig and guitar rig.

[@Return2TheLiving]

Get a nice case on wheels, problem solved.

[@archbox8593]

Then probably the hx stomp xl would be nice for you :) its super compact, has enough sounds for most gigs (+fx loop if you need more) and has enough switches for ease of use. (or something like the pod go or the fractal fm3 are also good contenders) and if you need the vocals effects you can get a separate boss ve-500 for example. But you do you :D

[@joelanderson6777]

[@martin-1965]

Ah so cool - I'm a Headrush MX5 guy. Don't need the cloning and have some fab IRs downloaded from people who know what they are doing (unk guitarist go kerrang unk) so am happy with it :) One quick question - has anyone ever played or heard a guitar used in Worship music/church settings that is 100% dry? Zero reverb or delay? Is that like the 11th commandment "Thou shalt have the most massive reverbs and delays on all thee guitar sounds"? Don't get me wrong, some of them sound sweet as can be and I love a nice reverb/delay. I just wondered if I played guitar in church without reverb/delay, whether a bolt of lightning would strike me dead 😂😂😂😂

[@StupidGuitar]

Got any good IRs you like? Have Gods and a couple random others. Pretty new to the MX5

[@alienlovesecrets9379]

Didn't you notice any above average latency with it, comparedto fm9, Kemper or Helix? That was the reason I returned the H prime. But maybe it's just me.

[@Scottydontno]

Yeah, the latency issues were all fixed with firmware update 3.1.1.

[@digital-guitars-uk]

Hello Mike. I don't use mine for Rock or Metal but did while I was depping a few years ago when I purchased the original pedalboard back in 2018. Had my prime for over a month and create Ambient and Guitar Synth patches on mine. Enjoy Mike. Best wishes from the UK 🎶🎶🎶🎶😎😎😎😎

It’s all software with a tiny and cheap processor. It’s amazing what they can do, but I am hoping for a open source moment where everything go digital, can talk to each other over network/wifi and were all the effects and channels are only limited by the processing power. As an example the kemper at 2000$ use a 10$ processor, your phone is 100X more powerful. So we are sold a bunch of boxes with connectors, but the PC moment has yet to arrive.
