The Headrush MX5 FX processor is the latest guitar amp simulator from the company. Here I take a look at the inside and out of this brand new effects pedal and play too!
This is no quad cortex that's for sure but the Headrush MX5 is a low cost entry in to a very crowded sector of guitarists equipment so I bought one and decided to take a much closer look than what I saw in other reviews. So is this unit like the headrush gigboard even? or the Headrush Looperboard? And what about the Line 6 pod go? or the nux mg 30
Firstly you can see all about the quad processor inside. Much is made about that in every video I have seen and while it's true that the processor IS a quad design, you might be surprised about what else it's used for. Very surprised!
Strangely this MX5 FX effects processor does not have editing software available! Headrush in their wisdom have decided that the touch screen is all you will need. Maybe. But there are issues with that.
I also show examples of where the screen might be a disruptor against a smooth work flow process if you were using this unit in any professional way.
I have also offered a score based on my own opinion taking in to account how it worked for me and the results I achieved from my own playing and that of Levi Mckenzie and his comments.
Lastly I do show some of the tones of the MX5 digitally recorded and finish up with a couple of rock examples showing what I could get out of the unit by way of high octane metal and rock music.
Do bear in mind that this is NOT a tutorial about the pedalboard but rather a way for you to see the good and less good about this effects system that others never show you.
