Hi
While I was waiting for the AXE-8 i had to get one of the smaller and cheaper products on the market.
When the AXE arrived I got it right away and put it to good use. And may I say that I like it very much.
For more than a year I didn't have the chance to listen to them side by side - Until now!
By itself the little red box is quite a good solution for the money. BUT side by side it is NO comparison.
Some have been saying that the amp-sims are on PAR with the axe. NO it is not.
The Axe is much MUCH more natural, 3D-like than the other one especially on the slightly overdriven amp sounds that I use very much. The highs are not near as hard/Piercing on the AXE....
In the 7 years or so I have been using Fractal products I have had a back-up in my car. BUT NEVER USED IT !!!!
So I am a very satisfied AXE user
Also I am exited to see what is next form this company. I seem to remember that 4-5 product were in the mind of the master.....And I think that we have only seen a few...
Kind Regards
