I downloaded the Boss parameter document which only seems to have about 20 pre amp models
which for the price could seem lacking to some .
Literally thousands of files - different capture rates, different IR length, and then all that stuff above.
Very easy to disappear down the rabbit hole and never actually getting any playing done!

16 IRs is plenty imo. I audition IRs by recording direct with the cab turned off then load up NadIR and scroll through til I find what I like, then import that one. With York Audio it's almost always Mix 01 anyway.
Feature wise I think they nailed it. And the effects will be excellent. I'm sure more amps will come but how many do you need? 16 irs onboard is enough for me. That avoids a huge rabbit hole.
If I do use the amps, a smaller number of great sounding ones is more useful to me than 300 slight variations a la Line 6.
Horses for courses though!
This could explain some of the poor sounding clips so far. Waiting for some comparison clips to see how it stacks up compared to the GT and see what people think of the feel in comparison. Hopefully Leon Todd will do a proper run through of the amp models through his IRs as I thought his GT1000 tones were the best I've heard out of it.
Out of all the Boss stuff I've seen, the most consistently decent clips across all YouTube channels have been with the IR-200 so far. I guess having all that power dedicated to just amp models must make a difference somehow.
Perhaps it’s less DSP intensive modelling or just nobody has had chance to dial it in yet.
I’m half interested, could swap my stomp for one and have a few more buttons to work with. But the effects would beed to be amazing.
The GT1000 has fx always on which I'm told make patch and fx switching virtually instantaneous. GX100 doesnt work this way so don't know how the GX100 switching will compare here.
However, I wouldn't be surprised if Boss revamp the GT1000 with more intuitive UI and touch screen in the very near future.
I would also be surprised if manufacturers like Mooer and Line 6 also didn't have some similar new touchscreen units in the works for 2022.
