I think the hip new guitar effects/sim is the Quad Cortex from Neural DSP. I've seen Kiko from Megadeth uses it for his live shows.

I think the AxeFx has more virtual knobs, but the QC is easier to use, and has Kemper-like sound capture tech.

The QC is my go to pedal these days. I have a Helix (rack) and a Kemper (rack). While there have been some hiccups on software it really is a solid little box.

Yeah, I switched from HX Stomp to the first batch of QC. Very happy with the result.
