Good for the power limiter, which can boost a little mini lamp without alienating the neighborhood as 30 watts are there
Special mention also to the gate, but in practical use subtly alter the risk of honest sound.
Lacks an effects loop for completeness.
UTILIZATION
The manual is fairly clear and pleasant. At first we did not take the head, turning the button presets and you play!
The configuration of effects is not very easy to use: in fact why not put three pots for adjustments? So it must be somewhat clever if you want to change with one hand. Just hit the chopper, and after it is no longer a problem too.
Only two user programs can be stored ... Too bad. But this is not the destiny of this amp to replace an entire multi effects. Something stupid, the Write key is too large, we tend to automatically support it, so we just want to change the program.
I will put that 8 / 10 because of these few points, otherwise the rest is fine.
SOUNDS
The amp models are all very correct. Lag Roxane Standard with my, I love the following channels:
- Shop CL
- AC30TB (the best in my opinion! Good sharp but respectful of the guitar, nice crunch)
- UK 80's, greasy, ideal for power chords
- NuMetal HiGain and are nice, but not free of defects.
The effects are well made and adds a good color without spending hours tweaking. My favorite: Tremolo / Reverb and Rotary / Reverb. The pressure with a reverb (especially audible with headphones). The delay is very nice, very easy to adjust thanks to the key "Tap". The Chorus, Flanger and Phaser troubleshoot well, nothing more. Overall we are in the same quality of sound that the Tonelab, with settings more intuitive (and that would be great if there were three pots!)
So summarize: the blues is that of happiness. For rock in general, Pink Floyd AC / DC is great (Raaah the UK80's!)! It is conceivable to push on to metal if you're not fussy about sound, it is still better to use an effects pedal properly.
EDIT 29/04/2008:
Replacement HP Celestion G10 Vintage by: one significantly improves the sound reproduction. I happily rediscovered some sounds clean with no other effect than a discrete or a slight reverb tremolo. Learn to play clean shot, because it also intends to further the player's fault!
I also had a return SAV: the sound would stop randomly after a few minutes of play according to the technician, the lamp was plugged in wrong on the one hand, and the power capacitor was defective. After repair, it works nickel!
Finally no pedal or multi effects on my AD30 (except a wah wah): It definitely does not, the sound is literally crushed by the modeling. It should really be considered as an amplifier "stand alone".
In conclusion, no decline or increase in the note!
OVERALL OPINION
In this price range, I tried several brands, Vox quickly (10 minutes!) Caught my attention. I use it for about a month, and I am very pleased overall. Very nice finish halfway between vintage and modern, versatile, go anywhere, good sound quality, powerful enough to play in the club, all for a price more than correct. In short, hard to beat such a quality / price ratio. So his biggest fault is that everyone ended up buying one!!
EDIT 29/04/2008
Since I played on some legendary amps, this little Vox, even with a good HP, lost a few points in my book. However I'm having still well above, it is more than enough apart (even a little too!) And the sound is still very nice, friendly, diverse, rock n'roll ...
