Im curious about the hype on Fractal Axe FX units vs the Eleven and even cheaper Pods.
But also all the AmpSim plugins like Amplitube and PodFarm and many more software type guitar rigs now available since the Fractal gear was upgraded from Gen to Ultra to II and then III...
Been reading and the Fractal all seem to get good to great reviews, so they seem to be the Benchmark.
However when it comes to desktop home recording the Amp Sims and Modelers seem less of a downgrade from the Fractal stuff. Why?
Is it because more time and manipulation and plugin-amp sims are as good for Home Recording and excluding playing Live, they do as good as the Fractal in the Home studio environment?
Ive had numerous rack pods and beans and never the Fractal unit, so I was hoping to get some input before dumping cash just to test drive one.
