This actually works
ZeeKay 27.11.2023
I bought this to try and at first I did not like it. The factory IR’s weren’t appropriate for my taste. I purchased some trusted third party IR’s and with those you can make this unit very versatile. All it takes is some good quality 2x12 cab sims for Ch1 and you can even get edge of breakup cleamish sound. For Ch2 some additional 4x12’s capturing Marshall, Mesa or Orange cabs make a difference especially if you A/B those with factory cabs. You can also switch the pedal cab sims off and connect to an OX Stomp or similar. For home studio the Synergy modules sound a bit better but for pedal board direct applications this actually works.

Almost perfect
Dbeff 12.03.2024
In terms of sound, you couldn't be happier with this product. You get the real feeling of playing a real amp in an incredible compact device. However, it's not perfect. One "issue" that bothers me is that you cannot have the boost selection in memory while swithing channels. It's either on/off for all channels or turning it off when changing the channel. You might be able to do this with MIDI though. The noise is very low and build quality is very good. I'm very happy overall.
