Fender joins the multi-effects and modelling world!

I like the UX on the Fender thing. It looks nice and consistent, and fairly easy to tweak on the board. Not convinced about the sounds though. I have had a listen on multiple headphones and monitors. None of the demos I have listened to made me want to even consider one. Just to be sure, I hunted down some of my favourite tone demos on the Kemper, and verified it's not just my memory/hearing.

Kemper still top of the heap imo. Liquid Profiling has pushed it into the stratosphere

Yup, I'm thoroughly enjoying the latest official firmware release. It never ceases to amaze me how decade old hardware stays relevant these days. They even include such huge free firmware updates! Sure, the UX on the Stage itself is not great. Can't comment on the toasters, never used one.

This is quite a lengthy review, from someone who paid for the unit. I haven't finished watching it yet.
