These videos are very valuable... I want to do this kind of setup but with a clean electric guitar... I think you have laid the foundation for what would be a good starting point. It was nice to see you dive through some of the routing menus, And button assignment menus as I don't recall seeing those in the user guide.
So glad i found this channel and this video. Absolutely stellar stuff. In the process of changing my pedal board and was seriously considering HR Prime but the FTM is amazing. Can you tell me is the FTM capable of harmonies? Where do you gig? Would love to check it out. And your Hysteria outro was great 👍
Works well, but you can't set a separate mix for the headphone out as a blend of chain 1+2. If you have output 1 and 2 to front of house, it would be really useful if you could edit the headphone mix independently you could set your own monitor mix, great for in ears. Hopefully they add this. Other issue was, you can't copy a vocal chain and paste it into existing presets, you have to add them each one at a time and set all the levels. I returned my unit due to these gripes and a few things it's missing at present. Cleans sound great though.
Hello Dave. Thanks for the quick wrap up of the acoustic setup. Did you check the Internal Looper as well? You've mentioned that you do looping, now I wonder if you use an external one. Me, I do look for a universal Frontend to connect my Acoustic Guitar, a DynMike and an Electric Guitar to it. Surely this is the "I want a universal doing everything perfect" device search. Cheers, Daria
Hey Daria, No I didn’t try the looper. In my experience I have found when multi-effects units incorporate a single looper, they’re not ideal for live performance. I find a designated multi-track looper the way to go as they are designed for looping, so its functionality is better. I have a small rig with an RC500, all in one, quick setup. And a larger rig based around an RC300 (old school but a work horse) That being said, I do occasionally use the looper in my HeadRush for acoustic, but it’s definitely not the same.
Hello, are you able to separate vocal and Line instrument ? I mean, sing into a same amp while playing or you have to do it on different speakers ? Do you use FR FR by Fender ? Thanks for ur help
Great video... but, I think that your guitar needs more natural resonance... it seems to have too much compression and limiting. For an electric guitar, it would be fine... but, not for an Acoustic, I think.
I didn’t do a direct comparison, but I’ll give you my thoughts. Ease of use was incredible. And it instantly sounded good (to me). The basic amp & cab setup could easily be a rig. I love that it uses more realistic names & images. Makes it even easier to play with. However… It’s still Gen 1 & has room to grow. GT1000 routing & flexibility is brilliant. I definitely prefer the delays & reverbs. It has a foot pedal! Once you understand the amps, effects & how to dive into the unit it really is not that hard to use, you just have to learn it. Better? Worse? I don’t know. That’s a tricky question. They can both be used and sound amaze balls. If I had more time with the Tone Master I’d have a better opinion.
