HeadRush

HeadRush builds floor modellers and powered cabinets around a large touchscreen interface, which is the main thing that distinguishes it: editing happens by dragging blocks on the unit rather than in an editor on a laptop. The Prime, MX5 and Core units cover most of the range from compact to full-size. It appears in our archive in the modelling comparisons and the deals worth flagging.

HeadRush FAQ4 questions

Who makes HeadRush?

inMusic Brands, the American group whose family also includes Akai, Alesis, Denon DJ and Moog. HeadRush is its guitar processor line, covering floor modellers, rack units and powered cabinets.

What is HeadRush Cloud?

HeadRush's online service for its current processors. Prime, Core and Flex Prime use it for direct access to tone libraries, and the units also carry native Neural Amp Modeler support with onboard TONE3000 access — which means they can load NAM captures rather than only HeadRush's own models.

What is an FRFR cabinet and why does HeadRush make them?

Full-range, flat-response — a powered speaker that reproduces a modeller's output including its cabinet simulation, rather than colouring it like a guitar cab. HeadRush's FRFR CAB Series exists so a Prime or Core can go from headphones at home to a stage without a separate amp.

What is the difference between HeadRush Prime and Core?

Size and interface. Prime is the flagship floor unit with the largest screen and the most I/O; Core is the compact version of the same platform for players who want the processing without the footprint. Flex Prime sits between them with a rearrangeable layout.
