I found the Headrush Pedalboard to be capable of producing good quality tones that were sufficient for gigging. However, the Headrush Pedalboard is of such poor mechanical and electrical design and manufacture that I could not rely on it. In the two years I owned it the motherboard fried due to a grounding design issue and four switches died at various times. Headrush replaced the Pedalboard after the motherboard fried…but when the replacement unit arrived two switches were dead. I repaired the switches myself but then a few months later two more switches died. So I decided to move on.
After a lot of research and gathering info I decided to purchase an Axe Fx III Turbo, a FC-12 and a EV-1. They arrived at various times over the past week...with the FC-12 showing up late this afternoon. I spent a half hour adding the FC-12 to the system a couple hours ago and have been testing everything out.
My first reaction is WOW! This system sounds amazing; each component is built like a tank and works like a champ! The AF3, FC-12 and EV-1 combo is everything my research and all the testimonials I read led me to believe it would be.
At first I expected that the complexity of the hardware and operating system would make it hard to set-up and utilize…but I was wrong. Once I figured out the menu hierarchy it was very easy to set-up everything and begin using the system.
I still have a lot to learn, but I am having a ball doing so! I am so happy that I decided to become one of the Fractal fanatic family members.
