It is perfectly suited to musicians on the go or those who want all their needs met in one simple to use unit.

Features We Love:

Small but Mighty!

This compact unit houses a lot of power and possibilities! Packed with 46 amp models, 15 cabinets with 10 microphone emulations, 300 IRs, and 63 FX, you have plenty of options available to suit any kind of performance, practice or recording session. The custom-designed DSP system keeps it all running smoothly thanks to multi-core processing.

Extremely Portable

Weighing in at just 3.5lbs (1.6kg), it is light enough to take anywhere you need it. You'll find that it also fits into the majority of backpacks, making it a very convenient solution/alternative to carrying around a cumbersome pedalboard.

Easy to Use

HeadRush has made this incredibly easy to use straight out the box. The high-resolution 4" touch display clearly shows your signal chain which can quickly be changed thanks to a sleek user interface. Touch, swipe, and drag-and-drop to easily customise and change your rig. Presets are also a breeze to setup, store, and recall, plus you can have your full show organised in advance thanks to the Setlist feature.

Plenty of Connections

Taking a look at the back panel will quickly reveal how capable the MX5 is when it comes to working beyond the basics. MIDI in/out, an FX loop, a TRS input for an external expression pedal... it's all there!
