Gone Ampless
Having spent too many years lugging amps around.. over this winter I went ampless....... man this is so cool... any one else here doing this?.. I gig a few times a week and being able to walk into a venue of any size with just a guitar and a pedal board is truly wonderful. Currently running a board that ends with a Mooer Radar set up as a '67 Fender Twin Reverb.For the bigger gigs we do carry some empty cabinets so it at least looks like there are amps
 The whole band is ampless, including bass

Yes, I was doing this 30+ years ago, but the simulation pedals and modelers available today are so much better.
Good for you! - Glenn

I used to drag a small vintage tube amp around to mix with my acoustic signal for the dirtier blues songs, but now I'm just using a Origin Effects Revival Trem on my acoustic pedal board.
It simulates the sound of an early 60's brownface Deluxe amp. So you get the amp sound, and you get the bias modulated tremolo sound and is very authentic sounding. Funny thing, I thought I would just use it on my dirtier songs, and also on some songs that require tremolo, but in it's cleaner setting, it sounds great. So much so, that it's on almost all of the time, and it seems to give my acoustic a slightly richer sound.

I use harmonic trem a lot - on a pedal board I have a Harmonious Monk, but ampless I use one on the FM3. Dobro and trem are a match made in heaven - or hell depending on what you're going for
 Last solo show this was the setup into a Red Sound Elis.8 powered cab. Can also just run it direct to a PA, and I can get by without the FC-6. Was using Beard square neck and Eastman archtop for the gig.

Yeah, I started doing church gigs entirely with the POD 2.0 and Floorboard. I morphed into a POD HD500X that I carried in an Olive Garden bag and eventually moved into the Helix with its fantastic gig bag/backpack.
 I do most of my sessions with the Helix these days - guitar in one hand and Helix on my back, plug 'n play. Bob

I have a pedalboard that I can use for acoustic AND electric… depends on which output I use on the last pedal. I use “through” for the acoustic, or use one of the amp sim settings for the electric.

as long as the stage monitoring is "right" they work. if that's not right, they don't. The gutiar player in my sons band uses one I did a few walk ons and played some tunes with them during a few shows. it worked pretty well,, I would have preferred a chance to set my one patches up but what was there got the job done. On a few of the occasions I could hear fine, on one or 2 other times, it wasn't quite as easy to use.

The Moore Raider is pitched as a cab simulator but the vids i checked out shows it to be a full fledged Amp Sim/modeler. Thanks for putting on my radar. Do find that it would work well as a stand-alone peddle without any others in the signal chain I just picked up a Boss RC-600 looper which has some amp modeling, but have not done a deep dive yet.

Congrats, and let us know when your PhD in sound design is bestowed upon you! Just kidding....I'm still learning my HX-Stomp after well over a year of playing (and actually reading the manual!!) I now understand why there are "online academies" to learn this stuff!
