I have the real deal versions of some if the amps and pedals and the likeness is truly impressive. It's not so bad that I will ditch it since I am already in several hundreds, but I am not a very happy camper. I get Sales pitches for upgrades whenever I open it. Pedals and amps you dont have access too show up to tease you into buying them separate. There is no "NEW" function, so to create a new preset you need to edit an old one. Often it wont work as a vst and I have to open the stand alone version, change the setting there, and then go back to vst. I have the pro version but somehow it forgets and I have to re log in to remind it. When you go to download presets you will find that most require the pro edition. You can only choose between 3 window sizes. Many of the presets bug out making them useless. It frequently forgets my credentials making me log in again. I use it all the time, together with Bias Amp 2. I still keep it around and use it because it offers some pedals and things I like that others don't, but it does make me work for it. Of course options are good in many ways, but I also frequently ran into situations where I expected a certain pedal or amp model to behave a certain way and then at first felt like it was a kind of ghastly emulation, but you kind of have to just rein it in sometimes and color inside the lines. Now that Ive had the Kemper for a while, Im still keeping the OX, but Id keep the Kemper if I had to make a choice. At first, I would have said that if I could only have one or the other, Id keep the OX. Have a so and so, but here, it can be even gainier if you want. I actually get very good results from just plugging a 57 right into the Kemper, depending on the amp Im profiling. It's like they model an amp and then just tack on more. The controls just seem really severe in the effect they end up having. The patches I like sound as good as anything else, but it's really easy to make it sound unappealing to my ears compared to something like Amplitube, where half the pedals and amps sound like a walking sweet spot by comparison. I have the VG-99 but that Id use for studio only. I would like something for gigging live that I can control with my Roland FC-300. I can't speak to 2 specifically, but if 1 is anything to go by, BIAS FX is for my money the biggest "what you put in is what you get out of it" example out of the major options out there.
