HeadRush have recently released a major firmware update that brings some powerful new features to their Prime, Core and Flex Core amp- and effects-modelling hardware. All three units now boast native support for Neural Amp Modeler (NAM) captures along with direct integration with TONE3000, the fast-growing platform for community-created guitar tones.
HeadRush say that they believe great tone shouldn't come with a technical barrier. With the latest firmware version installed, users of the company’s Prime, Core and Flex Prime units can now search, demo, download and play NAM captures directly from TONE3000 through HeadRush Cloud. Everything is carried out via the onboard touchscreen, with no computer, file conversion or manual transfer required. NAM captures load natively, with no degradation and none of the inconveniences that come with relying on third-party formats. The library offers access to everything from captures of rare vintage amps and boutique pedal chains shared other community members, and offers the fastest and most convenient way yet to browse and discover new sounds.
