HeadRush is excited to announce the release of a new firmware update (v3.2) for the Prime and Core which will launch on August 8, 2024. This update will introduce the following new features, improvements, and bug fixes:
6 New FX:
- Added 3 HeadRush original FX to the new Synth category
- Hybrid Synth
- Electric Piano
- DB-33 Organ
- Added Glorious Drive to the Overdrive category
- Added the White Bass Wah to the Wah/Filter category
- Added the Sustain to the Volume/Dynamics category
New Features:
- Added two new signal paths options for Dual Guitar & Vocal chains
- Dual Path 2-12 – 2 Vocal blocks + 12 Guitar blocks
- Dual Path 4-10 – 4 Vocal blocks + 10 Guitar blocks
- Bluetooth and USB Audio On settings can now be retained through power cycles
- Added an option to opt in or out of HeadRush’s data analytics program
UI improvements:
- Added contextual information dialogs to the block edit pages for Sustain, Hybrid Synth, Electric Piano, DB-33 Organ, and Side Comp effects. To check this out, tap the “i” icon located on the block’s graphic to learn more about these effects.
- Moved the location of Ambi Verb to the new Synth FX category as this better reflects the effect since the reverb is generated via a synth.
- Other very minor cosmetic improvements

- Other very minor bug fixes and performance improvements
