It does sound great, but so does the competition. Since it's obviously aimed at the pedal board folks, most of those players already have their favorite OD, but on the other hand, it may be tough to compete with the Tonex One, because again, the pedal board folks likely already have their favorite effects, and the ultra small Tonex will fit on any board, and the larger size of the Cortex is not a plus, in that case, even if it has effects, as the efx would likely be redundant. I'm hoping Kemper releases a plug in, of the profiler, where only Profiler owners can access it, with their license, the way they did with the Access Virus. This would be killer, so one could utilize it with Gig Performer.
