These aspects have dj t Retailer in the previous ones opinion ...

UTILIZATION

The functions available are clear trs. I did not have to open the doc to exploit them.
The edition sounds (choices and rglages amp, HP) is empty. The manual is clear that the French version is widely incomplte trs. We are obliged to consult the documentation in English for advanced functions.
The V-amp is a box of the same mystrieuse: imagine a Ferrari, you know she can run 300 but does not give you the gear lever (damn). The bote contains a lot of possibilities that are not accessible. For example: the front can not combine the effects of his choice. It provides a set of prselections (not always sound). The total programming can be done via a PC with MIDI and software "v-amp design," tlchargeable free at Behringer. From there the entire CASC bte: a rgal!
The look a little fake and fragile. Attention to transport.
The connection is complte and even if it seems brittle it is pretty good quality (inputs and outputs symtrique). One regret: no effects loop.

SOUND QUALITY

The amp tones are good trs without knowing whether the models are really Fidler (is it really important?). For a long time on the marshall jou, I can say is that the JCM800 MODEL trs close to the original. Some models sound better than others but all are usable. I play Classic and Lag Roxanne MODELS Jtm45 Marshall, JCM800, Soldano, Matchless (among others) resortent well.
The effects are Ingals quality.
The pros:
compressor
echo and delay
chorus and flanger
some rverbes
The -:
phaser
Rotary (????)
some rverbes
either the + or -
auto-wah
wah
some rverbes.

OVERALL OPINION

I use the v-amp for a year. I buy version 1 and 2 is to evolve (chgmt EPROM). The strengths of the device are its sound quality good on scne trs and really excellent recording. The diversity of sounds is a device adapted to all kinds of music. Weaknesses: no on / off switch, the format is not well suited to the scne (but a good work). Before buying I test the pod (sounds exagerment boost in the midrange on all models, bandwidth limit price), the j-station (sounds good but a little flat, the price 'era) Yamaha D-stomp (sounds so so I got).
I do not regret my purchase because it is the best cost / performance ratio.
