Always hear about the Fractal Axe FXIII--seems like the gold standard in guitar FX. Didn't realize they had smaller, non-rack-mount form factor devices. Very interested in trying out the FM3 now that you brought it to my attention. Thanks!!

The Mod Dwarf (and its predecessors) also allows web control and it supports standard LV2 plugins :) https://mod.audio/dwarf/ https://mod.audio/dwarf/ https://wiki.mod.audio/wiki/LV2 https://wiki.mod.audio/wiki/LV2

  The first site is remarkably brief about its actual capabilities. Is there somewhere with more information about it?

    Simplifying a bit: It's a pedalboard with a Linux SBC inside where you can load LV2 plugins and chain and route them as you wish. It has a sleek web interface for management and some short of "pedal store". Like an advanced multieffects pedalboard. Originally the MOD devices where crowdfounded. There's a small introduction video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5USQ7BsZ054 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5USQ7BsZ054 And Modep (as @tcrenshaw wrote in another comment) this is a MOD emulator for Raspberry pi, just in case you want to play with it: https://blokas.io/modep/ https://blokas.io/modep/

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.

AxeFX is absolutely insane in amount of control it gives you over your tone. I would say far too much control. Probably the best tool for a tone tinkerer.
