I haven't had a chance to try one yet. My guess is that the Axe-FX Ultra is very good competition for something like the PSA/Eclipse combo, but I'm not sure if you could/should try to compare it to the Harmonizer, especially the H8000FW, which is a full fledged studio effects unit including 5.1 capabilities. I bet the Axe-FX is real competition for the Line6 guys! Funny, this all takes me back to the days when I *LUSTED* for an ART SGX... LOL Back when I could only afford one thing, those all-in-one units were the answer for me. Now, I prefer separate components. I'd rather be able to swap out parts of the chain for units that do one particular thing better than the combo units do. For example, I love my H8000FW, but I still use a PCM for the verbs... [troll]Sadly, I think the typical audience wouldn't know the difference in sound quality, so for live performance I think you can get away with just about any gear.[/troll] Discuss... BTW, it looks like the Axe-Fx uses convolution, at least for its cabinet models, so instead of a cabinet IR, I wonder if you could use an IR from one of the Spirit Canyon Audio collections or likesuchas...? Of course, SIR can do the same thing, and it's *free*... >Fantastic. Do you happen to have an email list I could get on to keep >abreast >of any developments?

I'll look at some of those patches and see how the algorithms are put together. If the Harmonizer lets me access the rack algorithms, then we should be able to customize them... Regards, Doug
