A powerful all-in-one guitar and vocal amp/effects processor.

HeadRush Prime is the most powerful, versatile and realistic effects processor developed by the brand. Built around a
powerful multi-core processor, Prime features an impressive collection of guitar amps, cabinets, mics and effects, complete with an intuitive amp and effects pedal cloning system and a powerful looper.
Also designed for vocalists, Prime features a complete collection of vocal effects, including Antares Auto-Tune, a true recording studio standard. Prime's ultra-intuitive interface is centered on a responsive, high-resolution 7-inch touchscreen that allows you to create complete rigs by dragging and dropping your amps, pedals and effects onto the signal chain.
Protected by a sturdy steel chassis, the Prime features 12 switches combined with individual OLED displays and RGB LEDs, as well as a large expression pedal with built-in bank switch to control your amps and effects. With rich connectivity including Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, HeadRush Prime is simply the ultimate workhorse for singers and guitarists, both in the studio and on stage.

Find your ideal sound at your fingertips.

Designed for both singers and guitarists, the Prime is capable of offering up to 14 effect slots on one signal path, or two separate paths of 7 slots each: a first channel for vocal processing, and a second for guitar processing for example. Ultra flexible!

A veritable armada of innovative effects and features.

HeadRush Prime includes an ever-expanding collection of amps, effects, speakers, mics and IRs, as well as a full suite of vocal effects that includes Antares' famous Auto-Tune.
These high-quality simulations faithfully reproduce the sounds of the most sought-after guitar and studio gear with unprecedented accuracy and stunning natural response. This collection is regularly enhanced by software updates via USB or Wi-Fi, adding new features based on user requests.

The most user-friendly amp and pedal cloner available.

HeadRush Prime incorporates state-of-the-art cloning technology that allows you to expand your amp and effects library with physical equipment. This HeadRush Amp Cloner accurately captures the sound, dynamics and, most importantly, the character of your favorite amps, preamps, overdrive, distortion and fuzz pedals.
Using the cloner is simple, simply connect your target gear to HeadRush Prime and follow the instructions on the touchscreen. Once the cloning process is complete, you can then make various adjustments, such as removing the sound from the clone speaker, so that you can operate the cloned amp head with another virtual speaker or impulse response.
Once the final adjustments are made, you can share your favorite amp clones with other users, as well as preview and download new clones created by other musicians using on-board Wi-Fi and HeadRush Cloud.

A built-in WiFi module for sharing your presets and clones.

To expand your amp library with new amp and effect clones and share your rigs with the world, your HeadRush Prime includes a built-in Wi-Fi module that provides direct access to the free HeadRush Cloud service via the touchscreen. Via this service, users can quickly search and filter the most downloaded and liked rigs, or search for new rigs by style. HeadRush Cloud is the ultimate resource for discovering how to quickly create your ultimate sound or for finding inspiration.

Learn your songs faster with the built-in practice tool!

HeadRush Prime is the world's first effects processor to load songs directly from DropBox via Wi-Fi so you can practice or learn songs faster. Once the song is loaded, you can create loops, slow down the trickiest sections or change the pitch by semitones to learn songs in new keys!
The Prime can also connect and play audio files from a Bluetooth mobile device, allowing you to tap into digital streaming and lesson services. Whether you're working on your favorite guitar solos or just trying to learn a cover for your next gig, the HeadRush Prime has everything you need on board to get the job done quickly.

A powerful looper with MIDI sync and save function.

HeadRush Prime has a powerful built-in looper that you can use to layer passages during your performances or as a songwriting tool when inspiration strikes. Each loop is up to 5 minutes long and can contain up to 20 minutes of layered audio at a time!
When you're done, you can save your loops in WAV format and export them to your Mac/PC via USB for sharing. You can also import WAV files to use the looper as a playback player, and easily synchronize the looper with external MIDI devices such as drum machines.

A built-in USB audio interface for recording and reamping.

HeadRush Prime's USB connection opens the door to recording or reamping directly on your computer. When HeadRush Prime is connected to your computer, you can use it as a 24-bit 96 kHz audio interface! By choosing the Reamp option, you can add the sound coloration of an amp to a pre-recorded audio signal - in this case, by sending the audio from your DAW to the Prime and then recording it into your DAW. Recording professionals around the world know that reamping saves valuable studio time, and HeadRush Prime makes it easier than ever.
