that's your ASSumption. you stated the Fractal Forum Tone-X thread is 2 months old and 8 pages, and now Fractal wants everyone to stop posting about the Tone-X on their Forum according to the OP.

clearly Tone-X discussions are upsetting some people in Fractal-land.

it's amusing.

No doubt someone will come along and say something dim witted to further back their bias, but check my other posts in this thread or just go to the FAS forum and type in Helix, Quad Cortex, ToneX, Nux, whatever, you’ll get plenty of discussion around all of them. Not sure why Cliff chose to close that particular thread after it had been going on for weeks, someone probably did somethin’ to piss him off. The only threads I see closed without fail are obvious troll threads, like when Donnie B eventually finds another fuckin’ Wifi address he can sign up with. Really, some of the posts in here are very, very Donnie-like.

When my parents used to try and get my little brother to try new food, it was always a struggle. He hated anything different than what he was already used to. Every time they would present some new food to him on a fork, he'd shriek "SMALLER!!!" and they'd take off more and more food until eventually a single tong on the fork they were using was wider than the new piece of whatever food it was. But that wasn't even good enough. My brother would scream "WATER! I need FULL GLASS of WATER to wash it down in case I HATE it!" and so my parents would, grinning to themselves, sometimes get him a great big full glass of water.

The moment would come. After what always seemed like a solid minute of him slowly lifting that fork to his mouth, he'd finally get there and you could see that tiny morsel of food touch his lips. Immediately, without fail, he'd shout "UUUGHHH, GROOOSSS!! I HAAATTEE IT!!!" and then he'd practically stampede to his giant bucket of water and drink the entire thing in a feverish, desperate attempt to rid himself of the hatecrime in his mouth known as "apricots" or whatever.

At that point, he'd try his hardest to supress his new-food-trying PTSD and retreat to the safety of his chicken nuggets and mashed potatoes.


I've always thought of people who go out of their way to talk trash about modeling companies, particularly Fractal, just like my toddler brother. "Hey, want to try this modeler?" "NO! I JUST KNOW I'LL HATE IT!!!" "But you haven't even tried it." "NO! I need the comfort and safety of familiarity otherwise I'll die!"

What I'm trying to say is that some guitar players, for as much as they like to think they're "innovative artists" are really just some of the most conservative people possible when it comes to gear and wouldn't know a good thing if they heard played it, even if they could drink an entire glass of water right after trying it. They're so terrified of new things that they'll look for anything they can possibly find to justify their ire, and go out of their way to attack these scary new things that couldn't possibly ever be as good as the comfort and safety of their chicken nuggets... er, I mean, tube amps. "I tried this modeler by hooking it up through an old 2-inch alarm clock speaker I found in the dumpster and it wasn't NEARLY as good as my 150w W/D/W rig that uses three 4x12 cabs. I KNEW it, modeling is TERRIBLE! WHEW thank goodness I don't have to face anything that could challenge my comfort zone. Also that Cliff Chase sure is a jerk for trying to run his business HAHAHA did you see that HUGE TANTRUM he just threw where he... agreed the product was good but asked people to move a competitor's discussion elsewhere? What a JERK!!! Pssh, digital modeling guys, am I right fellas?"

Totally agree with this point.I was on the opposite side of the amp thing and only recently came around to tube amps after like 20 years. I never discouraged anyone from getting one or the other but I just couldn't understand why you'd spend $1k on a tiny tube amp when you could have the digital with so much more for lesson. Well, I was wrong. Everyone kept telling me how superior my digital with all the built in effects were and I was in programming heaven. Then I got a great tube amp and it honestly changed my whole playing experience for the better. Less time wasted dialing in sounds and overall, enjoying my tone a lot, lot more, not even close. I know that I am a rare case I'm sure but the point holds true no matter which side you are on. People seem to love/hate something based off of very little, especially when we're young because we are limited to what we can even get.
