I had an Axe-FX Ultra and was extremely pleased with it. Obviously it wasn't perfect and there's always room for improvement, but it absolutely destroyed any modeler i've tried by 1000 miles and actually liked it more the the vast majority of tube rigs i've played and all of this was played direct through 6'' studio monitors. Once i saw that the axe-fx 2 came out i sold the ultra and have been using a cheap practice amp since.
So whats the big difference? From my prospective i was excited to see the double in the cab res. seems that would be huge for people like myself who play direct exclusively. big deal? Also i was really excited about being able to store way more custom cabs(52 i think it was or so) and i really really liked the addition of the USB which i thought was really lacking in the ultra. I also of course like the double in memory since that allows for more improvements in firmware and more memory head room. on top of all that the axe-fx 2 looks even better which is always nice.
My main concern is i can't buy one except used, so i emailed to get on the list. Besides that, the next concern would be that i spend that kinda cash and then 9 months later the Axe-FX 2 Ultra comes out and then i have to sell and get that one.
