Seems like a multi use box, and yes good player....great demo track. I was thinking it would be a great way to add some channels to your Friedman and being a good backup solution in a pinch. I'm interested but not, because I keep telling myself I'm DONE lol. But yeah, good playing...cool product.
 
I'm really interested in this thing. I imagine/hope Friedman make's different versions down the road.
JEL IR-X, JJ IR-X, Butterslax IR-X etc, etc......

He does a lot of the Charvel demos too i believe..smokin player.

I think this preamp sounds best through power amp. Power amp sim is cool though, well thought out unit.
 
I like the concept. I think it's got a particular user in mind and fits the need. Dave didn't seem too enthused on the dumb questions he got about it. For me I think I would just go analog or digital not this in between concept
 
That actually sounded pretty darn good in the YT clip!
 
Sounds really good. I was thinking "this would make a good backup in case my amp goes down at a gig" except I bought my last Twin for $500 which is the price of the pedal, lol.
 
It just has this chewy thing that isn’t for me and I can’t tell if it’s the pedal or the method of recording the pedal that’s causing it.

Seems like a cool concept but honestly I’d go FM3 turbo if I wanted true backup :dunno:
 
I had one, got it on the basis that it had channel switching and I could just stick it on my existing board and continue to use my presets using midi to switch it like I do my amp. Loved it!! I wasn’t a fan of the stock ir’s, they were all a bit too scooped for me but once I found an IR that suited I was very happy with it, has a nice feel that i haven’t found in other direct solutions. Unfortunately the fx loop has developed a fault and has gone really quiet so I’ve had to send it back and no where in the uk has any left in stock until January!!
 
That JEL head was on behind him.…. Im not convinced its the pedal we are hearing. Just saying :)
 
Hahaha there were a SHITLOAD of demos on release day, I think this place is too anti-GearTuber to notice them. :ROFLMAO:
 
I bought one. I love it. It sounds exactly like my BE 100. since I own a few Friedmans, It’s definitely redundant though it is convenient to just flip between a couple different cabinets that I didn’t have before and record direct.

someday I’ll be home long enough from travel to post something
 
sounds like every other friedman to me which i guess is the point of this thing, i just dont find that polished and smooth friedman thing that exciting :dunno:
 
The coolest part is loading your own IRs

I'm not a huge fan of the Friedman sound, but this seems like a solid product ?

Especially if the tubes are actually running at voltage
