How do you feel about floorboard unit amp modelers?

[@spetnaz777]

I love my helix but I’m realizing that it can’t do everything right. When I add external pedals the amps just don’t take the load correctly and everything sounds compressed. It’s great if you keep all the pedals and fx within the helix but I haven’t heard any modelers successfully do this specific clean boosted sound I’m looking for. Do you know if the Fractal takes pedals well and can slam the front end of an amp close to what an analog setup could do?

[@ryansnydercg]

So in my experience, Fractal takes pedals better than my HX Stomp XL, but with that said, it’s not as good as an amp take them.

I’m selling mine on reverb. Love the sounds, but don’t like the UI

[@ryansnydercg]

I get that. The UI is cumbersome

[@alien4422]

It's way overpriced. I've bought some decent cars which were cheaper than this unit. I had an FM3 but now I'm using Tonex and I'm loving my Katana Go.

[@ryansnydercg]

Hahahahaha yea it’s much. I’ve heard great things about the Katana

[@thomaskihr329]

...and what was left of the car you put into a ToneX and a Catana Go. 🤣😂To each his own 😜

[@alien4422]

@@thomaskihr329 No. 🤡🤡🤡

[@LincolnCountyBand-st8yn]

Sounds terrible.

[@ryansnydercg]

It’s all subjective right ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
