What is it?
We’ve all been in the position where we have had to load our gear into a venue from what feels like miles away or up multiple flights of never-ending stairs. Thankfully, digital amp modeling and profiling technology from the likes of the Line 6 Helix Stadium XL, Neural DSP Quad Cortex, Kemper Profiler and more –– as well as myriad pedal preamps –– have replaced the amplifier and cabinet in many a guitar rig in favor of digital versions, making this job at least a little less backbreaking for the guitar player.
