« Versatile and faithful »

Audience: Beginners

Everything has been said already!

It has an RCA input to connect a music player, which makes it ideal for playbacks

It only lacks a MID control. But for the price...!

USE

It's very easy to use: You plug in and it works!
However, the anti-feedback is a bit more complicated to use without altering the initial sound.

But the rest couldn't be simpler.

A small drawback is that it's really heavy!!!!

SOUND

I use it for guitar and mic. Or in AUX (yes, yes, it has an AUX input), it's not bad.
The chorus is wonderful and makes sound really crystalline.
I play an Ovation and an Art & Luterie and get a good sound with both.
But be careful with loud guitars (Art & Lutherie on the basses).
The reverb is very good (I don't understand the negative reviews in this respect: I tried the digital version and it's less convincing).

The output power and sound dissipation are great (the angle is large enough for a large auditory).

The sound through the XLR line is awesome, too.

OVERALL OPINION

I play regularly in my basement, outdoors and in quite large venues, and it's impeccable.
As a beginner, I don't regret my purchase and would definitely choose the same product again (except maybe for the backaches due to the weight!).
Ideal for beginners who want to skip the "bad sound" phase. Faithful among the faithful.
