New Headrush MX5 VS the Competition | Line6, Harley Benton, Hotone | Thomann

[@davidwoods358]

I have the MX5. I chose it because of its ability to load dual amps and cabs, the stereo effects loop and more horsepower under the hood than the other ones in the same price range. You can actually store ideas with the looper too, handy when you don't have access to a recorder and don't want to lose an idea. No buyers remorse here, pleased as punch.

[@iloveitall]

I got a feel the MX sounds less flat and undynamic, instead the tone is more open an full. Would you agree?

[@davidwoods358]

@@iloveitall I've taken a lot of time making all my own presets over the months. It sounds and feels amazing to me. I do find that in some patches I am having to use 2 compressors to get the string feel and snap I'm looking for. It's not a high priced unit, for the money I am amazed. I play a bit of everything, rock, blues, fusion, etc. I've never had an amp that sounded this good, or this portable. I use the para eq on most rigs, that's where you can really make the tone shine or dull it down a bit. I'm using this box with a pair of powered monitors with 10 inch speakers and tweeters. This really helps for the stereo separation when using 2 cabs and or 2 amps and stereo effects.

[@iloveitall]

@@davidwoods358 Now that is a reeeaaallly helpful reply! I thank you very much, Dave! Good to know you enjoy this unit.

[@Jydmd]

I got mine a week ago, I love that there's a lot more DSP power than the Pod Go, so you can do stereo rigs and be less limited on what kind of signal chain you want to use. The setlist function to organize rigs together is really great. There's a couple patches that I use for everything, plus a couple that are dialed in for specific songs, it's super easy to have different setlists that contains my all-around presets plus a couple other song-specific rigs.

[@ymelfilm]

the pitch shifter sucks. The STomp's one is much better. I have both of them

[@billyschmidt7049]

I have both the Hotone and MX-5. Both are great but the MX-5 sounds MUCH better in a mix and never runs out of DSP and is so easy to use!. Also MX-5 footswitch configurations are way more usable in a live situation! Setlists on MX-5 are great! Hotone now has a compressor model with a Blend control which is cool ... MX-5 needs to add a modern compressor with a blend control! I continue to check out Line6 stuff but I Stopped using Line6 gear years ago as they have have a 'plasticy" sheen to their sound that makes my ears crazy and they have become overpriced! Nice Video!

[@davidwoods358]

I second that (the Headrush needs a blend control on the compressor.) I have one and love it but I sure miss my Keeley 4 knob comp. (with blend.) It makes a huge difference. Make up gain volumes on the trems would be nice too.

Im a studio owner in mtl.. And i had 60 classic amp.. accumulated over 30 years... They were all recap when needed.. deox..etc.. tube changed etc... Since 2011.. we use them less and less.. And basicly 2 years ago.. i sold all of them. Got almost 100 000k.. And now we are using mostly modeler... I got de quad dsp.. kemper... and headrush.. all version. Cost me under 10k. And it does the full job Without maintenance. This revolution is aka digital camera.. cell phone etc Real amp are important to remain in boutique maker..and giant. But they are almost a gone era already. As soom as these modeler got lelatenxy under 3ms... that was game over for real amp. They are near perfect these day.

[@andygryc]

Awesome video, and something that helped me commit on a MX5. (BTW, I really love all of your videos and interviews Kris. You've got great insights, interesting knowledge, and an infectious energy - keep up the amazing work!) Regarding "replacing" a preset on the MX5, you can only rename one and delete the old one. But that's not really how they envision that you use it. There's enough room for as many presets as you want, so the numbering in front is just for sort order convenience and nothing else, just like a filename. You can have several presets that start with "003" for example. The way the MX5 helps the player keep their options together isn't by number, but by creating a set list. Make a new set list and then just tap all of the presets to add them to that list. Anytime that setlist is active, the short list of presets you've added will be all you'll see. Honestly, it took a bit to get used to that, but it's a much more natural and "computer literate friendly" way to do it than the concept of physically numbered presets that we've all gotten so used to.

[@donald-parker]

Good one. I got a Zoom G5n a few years ago. I never use the presets - I just regard them as "demos of what is possible". A big part of what makes them useless is their volume is all over the map. I'm more or less happy with it, but for one big flaw - it is not responsive to guitar volume. Particularly for higher gain sounds. Instead of cleaning up when you turn the guitar volume down, it just sort of fizzles out. Not a nice sound at all. But I do like the built in USB audio interface - I use it to record on my computer. And the pitch shift can really be handy (I generally avoid using it like the plague, but every once and a while you find a singer who can't handle the normal key, and a song that relies heavily on open strings or notes that would just be beyond the range of a standard tuned guitar). Sturdy, reliable ... its OK. Not super inspiring, but functional. It would have been nice to see a summary chart at the end of your comparison. Price, clean tone rating, crunch tone rating, high gain tone rating, "live use" rating ... obviously just based on your subjective opinions, but I think you guys have pretty darn good opinions 😉

Just started playing around with additional footswitch which I use to control settings inside a pedal. Eg. changing the level of gain instead of having it on/off (thats another pedal ;). Was supprised how good the Ampero sounded though but I like the expression pedal being natural size instead of those minis on all other units.

Can't believe that Paul from the Studio Rats totally bombed the mx5..he didn't use it very well. I have the gigboard but this sound phenomenal!

[@rantnpod]

The question you have to ask which is not being addressed with these units is... can the processor handle all the effects (FX's /Amp/ Cab etc) if they were all on. I have the Ampero which has 9 slots in the chain and it craps itself beyond 6 the sound starts to break up i.e. latency occurs as the processor struggles to generate the sound . I have contacted Hotone they say it's a hardware issue. Question: why make something then sell it when you can't use to it's full potential ???

[@ryant3600]

it handles it all just fine. I have a lot of rigs that use all 11 spaces, i'll have a compressor, gate, chorus, flanger, doubler, wah, volume, chorus, tube screamer or some other distortion, equalizers etc.. of course like regular pedals you have to go into each pedal and adjust it to get the sound just right and balanced, but yeah it handles it all just fine.

I've owned a Helix LT, Boss GT-1000 Core and now an MX-5 and each one has their pros and cons. We all try to chase that tone, but reality is that most of these modellers are so good, that it doesn't matter which one you choose. I really like the MX-5 for it's simplicity - but it has it's niggles. The GT-1000 Core had great tones, but a really bad desktop editor. Also... it just felt meh and uninspiring to use. The Helix was so imbalanced - one patch would have the correct levels, next super-silent. I'm keeping the MX-5 as it just "works" - needs a desktop editor though.

[@DizzyKrissi]

Which one did you prefer in respect of the best amp-modelling? Currently I use a Helix at home, a boss GT1 for live but plan to buy either a NUX MG30 or the MX5. I need classic marshall (JCM and Plexi) sounds as well as Fender breakup. Any suggestions?

I am doubting. I have a few pedals. But this is a all in one. I have a Marshall tube amp. Is it better to get more pedals or get something like this

[@ThomannsGuitarsBasses]

It depends on your preferences. If you like your Marshall and want to get the best tones with the amp, get a few "normal" pedals and you're done. If you don't want to use the amp because you don't want to carry it around, or it's just too loud, then use a multi FX pedal instead. These have amp simulations built in which can sound really realistic. These have lots of drive, modulation and time based FX built in too, so you could use one of these in front of your Marshall too. Even though that's the last thing I'd do with them, since single pedals will sound more natural when played together with an amp. So, if you want the real tube amp experience, stick to the Marshall (maybe with a few pedals in front) and if having something super compact and versatile is your priority, maybe check out a multi FX like these in the video.

@@che2335 😆 just stop those are terrible vs a 4 cable method into the effects loop of a real amp or using studio monitors. Fine enough to get by for busking or doing a small bar show but still low quality tones beaten by many other options. Maybe don't reply to a 6 month old comment I figured all this out a long time ago.

NUX MG-30..?

[@nolatone]

Nice video, but it would have been useful to hear the same guitar/player through all of them.

[@oldmanzen6682]

After my experience with the Headrush Looperboard in 2019, I’ve vowed to stay the hell away from their products. Spent a long weekend back and forth with their support, trying well over a dozen firmware updates, and finally gave up and returned the unit. Thanks for the shootout, guys.

Where is nux mg30?

[@IsraelKelly]

It’s not fair, it should have been done with the same guitar in all of the pedals, but the Ampero sounded too much, then the HeadRush

WHAT WAS THAT VERY LAST SOLO PLAYED ON?

[@ThomannsGuitarsBasses]

Hey, the same rig as the intro jam. Kris (rhythm): Headrush MX5, Guillaume (solo): Hotone Ampero. Cheers //Kris

[@korynt3984]

@@ThomannsGuitarsBasses Shame. I needed a final push to get the pod, since it's really hard to decide between all those amp sims on the market. Ampero is too feature poor though and headrush sounds thin and uninteresting to me.
