Good points made by all, I actually have a buddy who has a kemper, " says its amazing, yet such a pain in the rear live like no other, its all up to the sound guy really to manage half your sound if you have no cab" I put together a little demo last night for him of about 5 presets showing off most all the capabilities of the GT. He is professional musician living in Nashville playing twice a week on broadway, so he has seen an heard almost all the gear you can imagine, and he was stunned. He couldn't get over the cleans, which I love to, I have a Strat players deluxe which helps a lot, but he loved it, almost sounded like better then the kemper " he's going back to a tweed an ditching the kemper for people who want some feedback on those, studio recordings with it says is a dream" I am in love with the cleans of this amp, its just so crystal clear and little effects added and MMMMMMM, The compressor in a handy tool in this Gt's if you set it right, and much like you guys mentioned, if you are plug and play guy this isn't your amp. But personally I love the wide variety of tones and sounds I manage to pull off. The four-button footswitch started freezing on me last night tho :/ not sure what that is about, but that had be a little worried.

Another fun thing to do with that amp is take the pitch shifter crank it and play yourself a little bass line " it sounds just like a great bass its unreal and FUN!!" in the looper then change you preset and jam away, really cool feature that I just discovered the other day!!

NOW WHERES THAT UPDATE!!!! maybe it will fix my pedal, cause I haven't had any issue till last night.

Guys, some good news here: there's a new firmware version undergoing final testing as we speak and which is hoped for release this week! It contains some really nice new features and a few key bug fixes as well.

Now ... at the risk of sounding like a broken record here, do keep the following link in our support knowledgebase bookmarked in your browser as it'll tell you precisely what's been released and what is contained in said firmware update:

https://support.fender.com/hc/en-us/art ... ease-Notes

Once the release is out there, we'll be updating the article above with full details and I'll also update the "sticky" post here in these forums to reflect that a new firmware version is available!

Brad, I know u probably can't tell us the new features, tho we DO know about the save feature which i was relived to hear about. But can you tell me this....do you know if any of the bug fixes are related to the EXP1 pedal? I ask because i really need it desperately and can't rebuild my pedal board for the GT till i know if they've fixed it for reasons too longwinded to go into.

Thank you Brad for responding to the questions. I can only imagine the number of complaints and questions that have been pouring in so thank you for the response. I am ecstatic for the updates, once things with the app get running smoothly and others that down own iphones can have the same perks things will smoothen out I think with the GT. I am hoping the main issues with the app are among the top glitches to be fixed. I was told by a rep that the firmware updates will come out one after another fixing bugs few at a time as opposed to one big patch that fixe everything is that a correct assumption? Also, does fender estimate to need as much time between updates as they did with this last one? It has been a long brutal wait, and it's becoming more an more hard to deal with. I have faith that most of our issues will be addressed. I was also told by the rep that more new features would be added? I am hoping if they are truly new unseen features they are fully functional, and not covered with glitches. So hopefully this is the week we will see the BIG BANG!!! Fingers crossed!
