Difference in sound Tonex Board and plugin?

I've noticed this on all the Tonex pedals, not just on the board, but does anyone feel that the plugin sound seems more chunky and deeper? While the pedals, including the Tonex board, seem a bit more digital?

Tests done without audio interface, connecting guitar -> Tonex Board - > Yamaha HS5

Fractal or tonex?

Did anyone come from Fractal? I'm very unsure which of the two has better tone or fractal sound. Tonex sounds more muddy but at the same time the drives seem a bit artificial, but I don't have much experience to say which sounds more like a real amp; could you help me?

Quad cortex cabinets

What do you think of the factory cabinets?

I hear a lot of controversy some love others hate. For me they sound very serious and sometimes muffled and without mid frequencies, they sound different from any IR I use so I'm in doubt what would be closer to a real scenario? The factory cabinets or the IRs which one is right?

Quad cortex ou fractal

alguém ja fez a transicao entre quad cortex e fractal?

nao sou muito fa de capturas , nao gosto da ideia de alguem posicionar os microfones por mim. Sobre modelagem especificamente acham que alguma tem vantagem perceptivel?
tenho estranhado alguns modelos no quad cortex como vox e fender twin, parece que falta uma frequencia media característica dós gabinetes

Qual produto da linha Fractal escolher?

Estou decidindo entre comprar a fractal FM3 (nao turbo), AX8 ou AXE FX2, sao as que meu orcamento aqui no BRasil permitem.

Na pratica preciso de 2 amplificadores por preset (podem estar em canais diferentes, so preciso conseguir alternar entre eles), e o melhor reverb possivel, qual dessas opcoes tem mais dsp e me daria uma melhor qualdiade de audio?

From quad cortex to headrush

I'm thinking of upgrading from my Quad Cortex to a Headrush Prime. Has anyone made this transition?

I don't intend to use captures, just modeling. Do you think it's equivalent to or better than a Quad Cortex?

Another very important question in the decision: the Matchless DC30 is my favorite amplifier of all time. In the Headrush Prime model, does it emulate only channel 1 or channel 2 as well?

The future of quad cortex

Considering that the Quad Cortex has been on the market for almost 6 years, do you think it still has a long way to go?

On one hand, I see that this product has been around for a long time without a hardware update, on the other hand, I see promises that haven't even come close to being fulfilled yet (PCOM, for example) and another device being launched with the same hardware (Cortex Mini). I'm investing in a Quad Cortex now and I'm afraid it will become obsolete in 1 or 2 years with the launch of a new Neural pedalboard.

Help with matchless please

Does anyone here have or have had experience with a real Matchless DC30?

I've been having a lot of trouble miking it on the Quad Cortex model; it sounds super aggressive in the high frequencies. An SM57 on the CapEdge seems unthinkable, even when mixed with a 121. I'd like to know your techniques for miking the DC30?

Which resource have you been using?

Curious to know what sounds best to the community. Have you preferred using:

Modeling + native cabs?

Complete captures?

Captures + native cabs?

Modeling + external IRs?

Etc...

I feel like each option gives me a completely different sonic signature and I get lost. The modeling sounds so different from the captures that I wonder, did Neural do a bad job with the modeling? Or are they good and I'm just overthinking it?

Does anyone else find the Matchless DC30 strange?

I'm referring to the quad model; all the amplifiers I use with their respective speakers have full bass. When I use the Matchless DC30 with its cabinet, the sound is weak and lacks impact. I know it's a brighter amplifier, but it should have more bass.

Does anyone else feel that the plugins sound more natural with fatter, rounder bass than the quad cortex? On the quad they seem to sound more digital and compressed.
