#160 - 18th September - NDSP what the heck is this good for?
So here is the new Neural DSP creation. Boring.
I was really hoping they would bring a new spin to the small amp in a box world.
But this isn't substantially different from the small Kemper or Tone X.
And who needs profiling all the time?
The biggest seller would have been a box of this size that would play the NDSP X Plugins for Mac/PC. This way you could take the sound in a production directly to the stage. And with that have an assortment of the greatest amps with you.
Everyone who is already invested in the NDSP eco-system would find such a box very enticing.
In fact, I would buy it straight away.
But of course they are afraid of sacrificing the big Quad Cortex with such a box. A lot of people would get rid of theirs and shrink their setup. So playing the X plugins will stay a buying argument for the QC only, I'm certain of that.
This means I'll stick to running a plugin and playing live with a little input delay. That's okay for potentially 2-3 songs only in which I would pick up guitar or bass.
