HEADRUSH GIGBOARD - AN EVEN SMALLERER MODELLER 

FIST! In my ass, thanks for subscribing!

"Outputwise we have a: Guitar INPUT" --- Ola the swede 2018

7:13 James officialy leaves metallica after seeing this amazing preformance to let Ola play and sing in his place

This channel at times makes me miss being a kid in the 90s and walking across town to music stores to check out new pedals.

never thought I needed/wanted to hear an Ola Englund cover of Sandman (with vocals)! now i do!!

So I bought one of these and after a couple of months with it, I would say its worth the money at $600. Several hundred less than the AX8 and half as much as FM3. Not a fan of the Helix. Its just too damn big. So, the Gigboard is in my mind a good starter modeler. I will be upgrading at some point, hopefully the FM3, but for now this is pretty good. Two things I learned. Do not use the cabs, they suck. I only use impulse responses. Primarily the Celestion ones that you can download with the unit. Apparently celestion made them especially for Headrush and they sound great. Second, dont use the global eq. Its a serious tone suck and the primary reason people think this thing sounds like crap. Turn on global eq, and every patch starts to sound like crap. The more you fiddle with it, the worse it gets. Turn off global eq and use the eq within each patch instead. Lastly, this is not a Fractal. You only get a few amps and effects, but if you think about it if you have the real gear, you also only have a few amps and effects. But the effects really do sound good, especially the ones with a lot of stereo spread. Keep it simple, us IRs and enjoy. Lastly, the looper is excellent.

It's so amazing to see today's multi-effects so powerful with a very responsive touch screen, great display, big & beautiful on screen. All the - multi-effect builders do not want to lose to how great smartphones today. Love it.

Best part of this video is Ola changing his pronunciation of parameter halfway through

That hands free function is one of the best features I’ve seen! Super clever.

Just got my HeadRush Gigboard and Jesus this thing is LEGiT!! It does every sound you can think of and YES!!!! It does metal!! I paired it with my Seymour Duncan power stage 170 and my 1990s Mesa 2x12 cab with the Black Shadows and it has blown me away!!! Takes some knob twisting to get it there but it’s not difficult at all! I bought the HeadRush over the V4 Victory Kraken preamp and damn am I very impressed!!

5:35 that devin townsend feelz

Ola playing djent while crowing like a Swedish raven. Very metal.

Hey Ola why don't you do a new shoot out between these modelers like Headrush, Helix, Fractal (AX8 and Axe FX III), Atomic, Boss and Mooer?

Djent sounds a lot like megadeth's train of consequences lol

OLAS RECTO ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Where can I buy that DJENT song?

Thank you for this demo. Well done. I think it sounds great.

I'm really impressed by the idea that you are playing guitar, without headphones, at 65-70db. How do you hear yourself, through studio monitors? THat would go a long way towards keeping the peace inside my house. Do you have any videos showing what is needed?

I think what we have to understand is that everything isn't for everybody. Each of us has something that we look for in guitar multi FX products. There are so many of these products on the market that I'm sure there's one or everyone in each price range. You can go from a few hundred bucks to perhaps $2k. Now for me, since I don't really use a lot of distortion and overdrive the clean effects are most important to me. Also I don't like going through a lot of menus and this is where this effects unit comes into its own. The 7" display does it for me. The display compliments the and enhances the ease of use. The choice of an effects is subjective at best. What one person may require may not be as important to another.

The XLR out seems to be missing on this little guy.... Going straight into the PA was always a nice feature to have. Still a really cool unit. Thanks for the dank demo Ola. Cheers from Canada!

How does wonderwall sound through it though?

We love when you say "Hi! I'm Ola Englund the swede" 🤘🤘🤘

nice job Ola!

The djent part made me laugh out loud and wake my newborn. Damn it, Ola, you funny fuck!

7:40 ....best pedal review !

That‘s what I was waiting for! Love your Loops Ola 😂👌🏻

That guitar is so cool, it looks like a playable explosion.

oh its got midi in and out.... would be a nice footswitch/2nd effects unit when paired with the original Eleven Rack..... oh baby its gear time!!!

Goddamn Ola, that lead tone @ 5:35 sounds so awesome!

Amusing, entertaining, nice playing, humorous, clear explanation. Another fun time with Ola.

I don't know if I began to watch with a pre judge. But this modeler sounded great to me, like some "sparking" highs (no digi-harsh), wanna feel it for dynamic response. And I like it's effects are limited, so the focus is amp modelling, I think.

You make everything sound the same dude, for real

There is a strange digital crackling noise in some of the Headrush amps, especially in the "djent" patch. Almost like radio static. I had an Elevenrack a few years back and it also hade that same crackling noise. Don't know if it was in the amps or the cabinet emulations, but it was annoying as hell and I cannot unhear it. Sad to hear that it's in the Headrush as well.

"Ola Rectal" was my favorite preset.

Loving that you now do vocals next to guitars

At nearly 600 quid, it is hardly a starter or beginner type device. For just a few quid more you can get a Line 6 helix LT, the Boss gt1000, hell even the full fat headrush isn't too far away.

That lead tone was epic man. Nice!

7:13 i almost died ahahahaha

I just love waking up, checking my youtube and every single one of my subbed guitar channels are all reviewing the same exact product... paid advertising across the board, yay

Ola. Great video as usual. The Headrush stuff seems really cool. I also like your new logo as I think it fits the Swede vibe very well. Love your channel and all of your music!

Downloaded your “ola rules” patch it’s bad ass added a few things a few tweaks. ….it’s killer

I literally choked when he sang enter sandman lul

My god that poplar burl is striking af I want one now🤩 Keep up the good work on your guitar bro

Can u please do more drunken bar fights? My wife and I have never laughed harder in our lives as we did for your at the gates one... Maybe put on fear factory digimortal

I like that digital decibel meter

BEST VID in a while man! I have the big Head Rush thanks for making me want this one also. Loved the parts with the riffs. You should do a Megadeth cover video or MetallicA. Do you think the wamens are enjoying the shannel more? Need videos with your shugs!

Hej Ola - might have missed this, but why are you monitoring the sound pressure level? Answer in #FAQ?

hows the sound compare to the mooer ge200?

Ola, is it gapless between patches/presets? I want to use the different patches like different channels on an amp with out any delay/cut-off in tone.

I like it, alot of versatility.

what's better, this or the line 6 pod go?

please review also the new Headeush MX5

Hi Ola, do you know if there’s a “detuner” in this pedal as well? Kinda like a drop pedal? Cheers

Sounds like Train Of Consequences by Megadeth @ 7:35

Great review Ola! 👍

7:49 beware the raven is out here!

I've read it's going to be released at $600 dollars, if so, the price diference between this and the regular headrush makes getting the regular one a no brainer. Remember the POD HD 400, 300 vs the 500? Plus, I think the mooer ge300 will be around $600 so.....

Always enjoy watching your stuff Ola, I think that maybe either you were not familiar with this or just maybe the GE200 is way better ?

I’m still fiddling with my gt-core, is thus unit better?

6:24 What a beautiful sound!!

Love these types of demos....no polished and perfect playing...doesn't make me feel inferior

I like the decibel meter

Hey Ola, loved the vid on the gigboard and I'm considering purchasing one. However the line 6 POD GO just came out and now I don't know which one is the best bang for the buck. Both can load impulse responses, but the overall quality and value is what I'm looking for.

If it had the xlr outputs I'd probably snag one I need to be able to send to more then one source as I use in ears go direct and may use a amp/ cab. So far I think my best option is to get a mooer radar and run it thru my pod hd500 bt the touch screen on this would have been tempting

Hi!! Thank you for all videos Ola!! Line 6 Pod Go or Headrush Gigboard??

So on is the auxilary input

I need help… I’m kinda tour musician, so i need an all in one solution. Because i have analog setup and its too heavy and big for touring ( It's a big problem especially for my plane trips). Im looking HeadRush Gigboard, Mooer GE300 and Line6 HX Stomp. Which of these three products would you recommend me to buy? Which one can I get better quality sound from? And does HeadRush Gigboard support third party IR? I'm new to this type of pedals so I need help...

I got the helix effects brand spankin new. It sounds really good, its confusing and hard to use.

What do you think about Michael Romeo's solo release? How do you feel about the direction his playing has gone to?

How does it compare to the helix modelling? Or the sound quality is more analogous to boss GT-1000 Mooer GE200. GE200 sounds fantastic

Greetings from Peru Ola lml! the headrush is fantastic pedalboard lml!

as an owner of the Headrush pedalboard version, I would advice going with this Gigboard instead. it sucks having to squat when you tweak settings, and it's annoying to put on the desk because it's so large.

What are the settings to create your bum patch?

Are there any reviews out there where any one does anything other than heavy metal mush? Are units like this any use beyond metal? Its it possible to get actual guitar tones that sound sweet and resonant, and not just a load of gain.

I mean.. Maybe I'm just nitpicking but at around 4:30 when you bring up your Ola preset, there's kind of a "big" delay when you turn the Chorus on and off. I get that digital boards tend to do that when you switch between sets/programs/whatever but just from a single effect inside the chain? That's kind of a deal breaker for me. Or was it just the touchpad input that caused that? Cheers.

Hi bro. May I know where you purchased the digital display of the decibel display clock?

Fi Faen Ola, What is the amplified guitar coming out from ? Is it your computer stereo speakers ? Hesu 2x12?? Help

hi ola..im wondering if the MELO AUDIO MIDI COMMANDER or the one that you demo before will work on gigboard for assigning scenes and for bank up and down?love to hear your thoughts on that and i hope that you make a video of that..thanks..cheers!!

Great review ... and Ola logo looks killer ;)

Hotone or headrush gigboard? What do you think is better?

Eleven racks had an issue with a delay/lagg during changing presets.... is this unit have the same issue? Or has it been solved already ?

I read the reactions first and then I listened at home to the sounds. I was prepared for the worst.... Am I the only one that doesn't feel this modeller sucks that much? I liked what I heard and especially the size combined with the easy interface (touchscreen etc.) makes me want to try this board out.

Sounds awesome !

Great demo, from Colorado.

Super Swede .. sounds amazing.

I think that djent riff sounds like Train Of Consequences by Megadeth.

Should I buy the gigboard or the mooer ge300?

Its a shame this doesnt sound better the touch screen interface and other cool features on this would have made it a huge success especially if it had more bass and guitar amps/ preamps it also lacks stereo effects loop and xlr outs to go to foh. I ended up going with the hx effects instead as it sounds better and was cheaper but if the issues with this where corrected it would have been a no brainer as its got way more dsp and a easier interface.

if want to use it with a power bank as power supply which one i could use with this ?

Hey Ola i have a question(i comment here cause its your latest video so i hope you will see). What do you reccomend me to play/practice to get back in shape?i havent played for 2 years and i wanna get my skills back

Technology these days is amazing ! I got an amp and board for more than 3000 €. The Headrush + 1 Expression Pedal (all in all ~ 800 €) does 95 % I really need and is even smaller and lighter.

Does it connect straight to a guitar cab or do you need an amp? All the pedalboards out there don't seem to offer this function where you use it as an amp and connectng straight to a cab.

Hey Ola, You should try the EHX Ravish Sitar. It would be a lot of fun!

Hye! Will you try valeton 200?

Which one do you think is better for 4cable method headrush gigboard or boss GT-1000

I would have really liked to see an xlr out. The best use for this to me is to send the output to your amp with no amp sims and send an xlr out to the house with amp sims. It could have eliminated the need to mic your cab

Hmm... Love the concept, but there's a fizz at the top end of all these sounds which I can't ignore. Maybe I can't forget that they said they started with the old Eleven Rack? At the price, it's too close to the big pedalboard unit to make sense to me.

Hi all your videos are awesome ! I have great guitars ltd with emg,but my amplifier set up "sound like ass" a ibanez tone blaster 100h cab +head... do you think it will be good a headrush pedal or a new head?i like pedal because i can have a disto, clean with effect, and solo disto thank you!

How does this compare to an ax8? I'm saving up to the ax8, but this is SO MUCH CHEAPER! Sounds good to me, but I don't have a very good ear for this. I want to go front of house like I do with my Axe fx ultra. That's basically all.

Headrush Mx5 review also?
