The proprietary Amp Cloner technology allows you to capture the sound, dynamics, and feel of your favorite physical amps, for-amps, and pedals. These clones can then be shared and downloaded via the HeadRush Cloud using the onboard Wi-Fi connection.

The HeadRush Cloud is a free service where users can browse, demo, and download exclusive rigs and clones created by the HeadRush community and featured artists.

3.3 Vocal FX Suite with Antares Auto-Tune

The Prime includes a full suite of vocal effects, notably the industry-standard Antares Auto-Tune, ensuring perfect onstage vocals. It also supports direct recording to Mac/PC via its built-in USB Audio interface.

3.4 Built-in Looper

Create dynamic performances by layering sounds with the built-in looper. It supports MIDI Sync and allows saving loops as .WAV files for later use or export.

3.5 Creating and Using Scenes

Scenes allow you to instantly switch between different effect configurations within a single rig. This is particularly useful for live performances where quick changes between rhythm and lead tones are essential.

To create a scene, navigate to the hardware assign menu (usually an icon on the upper right of the screen). Here, you can assign foot switches to toggle between different scenes. For example, you can set one scene for a heavy, distorted sound with specific effects on, and another for a clean sound with different effects activated. This allows for seamless transitions with a single foot switch press.
