Don’t be embarrassed
Who’s got one?!
Do you love it or hate it or mehhh?

I keep looking and looking. I keep thinking I’ll dig it!
I’ve been told it’s better than Kemper but not as good as the Fractal stuff…

Thanks fellas and ladies
 
I really like it.
I’ve never had anything axe, but had a kemper for many years - sold it after getting the QC.

I don’t like the amp models that much, and use captures exclusively.
It is much more accurate than the kemper at cloning the gain sounds of my amps.
Captures feel and sound like they have more weight behind them than profiles which are a bit flat IMO. (I thought this before the QC existed)

I dig the FX , with multiple captures / splitting the setups you can create are insane.
 
I've had mine for a couple of months. I've only been trying it out. My intention was to capture the three amps I have and would use it at some of my gigs and rehearsals but mostly as a backup.

Waiting for the next update on it which looks like it will add a lot of new features.

I like the form factor of the unit and the features on it. The power supply is improved but still a poor choice.
 
I have one. Really happy with it. If you are into the capture/profile thing it is freaking great. There are still some rough spots, in particular the data management is getting overhauled on the next FW release but it is pretty killer. View it as a Kemper rival not an AxeFx or Helix competitor. IMHO. If you have tube gear you want to profile and stick in the box, it's great.
 
I’d say the Fractal stuff is the best, but I sold mine within a year. It was just WAY TOO MUCH for me. I love my tube amps but really appreciate the modelers and profilers.
 
I personally love the unit, but I don't love the modeling; I use exclusively use captures. I purchased a few commercial capture packs and have been super happy. The UI, and ability to use multiple amps are huge for me currently. I do agree that there is a ton of room for improvement especially with the file management, but I'm down for the ride.
