Trying out the new Firmware Update for the Fender Tone Master Pro. There's a bunch of new updates, but MAINLY, improved Cabinet IR phase align, a new Cabinet and the EVH channels have gotten an improvement.
Also I will be able to upload the presets Thursday the 15th so patience!
DISCLAIMER: This is NOT a sponsored video. Fender did however send me this early unit for me to try out before launch, but it gets shipped back eventually after demos has been done. Fender has absolutely no saying in how I make or what I say in my videos.

Yes, but if you consider everything you are getting. It is a good deal. Think about buying what it can do individually. Even if you found cheaper clones of the effects and amps, this would still run cheaper. Just my 2 cents. I am perler happy with my Boss ir200 and Blackstar CV10 and pedalboard.

One of the better demos I have heard with this thing. I'm wondering if others maybe didn't crank the volume enough because in a lot of demos it sounds lifeless and missing a ton of top end. It also seems to be missing a ton of front end gain. Your demo didn't seem too affected by those issues. Maybe the "magic" they did in the volume modeling causes too much darkening at lower volume knob settings. I had written this thing off. Why'd you have to go and make it sound good hahaha.

JHS even did a video breaking down this tone and then MADE A PEDAL CALLED THE DRACYRYS. That is tone that is real.

@@Dustinchugs Kemper does not have an algorythm capable of capturing it. Rick Beato did a video explaining the limitations of the Kemper with Mesa amps and cabs. Tonewars also did a video explaining that the new Nueral Software does an amazing job of capturing the Tremoverb and Ola's cab setup. It all comes down to mic placement and the pre gain distortion feeding into a saturated but not clipping power amp section.

I know quite a few people that gig with them and they have no problems. These units are plenty durable. Certainly, as durable as any amplifier.
