Picked up an 11R. HAven't had a chance to sit and really fuck with it but I was able to dial in a mesa-ish tone and record this in quick fashion for my band. It's a song we have, but are reworking it a bit. Kids call us ezcore now.

I think I am really gonna dig the 11R once I have a chance to actually dig into it. The song is getting trimmed down a bunch, 5-minute songs in pop punk are pretty unheard of ....

A bit bright soloed, i would be curious to hear how it sat in a mix; i think maybe still a little too bright, but then again the fizz might also disappear with the introduction of other instruments...

How much control does the 11R give you over the flizzles and presence/high end sorts of sonic elements?

Pretty good. The cab and mic sims basically act as a post-eq to handle that. I went fizzy cause my Mesa is well ... fizzy. I run with my treble around noon and my presence at like 3:00, super bright by itself but cuts through the mix like a champ. But if I hadn't used an off-axis 57 mic sim it would have been a little less bright. I haven't had a chance to really dig into it, but the basic controls give you enough to dial in just about whatever flavor of sound you are looking for.

Not bad. Modelling has come so far these days... and I honestly think Line6 has been left behind. They have this trademark digital gunk to their gain sounds.
