The Aura is NOT a modeling system, the Mama Bear for example is.......
A guitar modeling system tries to make an instrument sound like something else, make a small body sound like a dread, or 12 string, for example.
Imaging attempts to make a guitar sound like it would through high end microphones (no more, no less), it does not try to alter the sound and make a mahogany OM sound like a rosewood dread, that would be modeling.
Fishman images are excellent and a little goes a long way in the "blend", I used way too much years ago when I got my first Aura equipped guitar, you need to pay some dues to get the most out of the system.
