«  The V30 box »

Already explained.
Liabilities, it is practical: it needs neither battery nor phantom power.
The ground lift is used to resolve the concerns of hum due to ground loops.

As already explained. I will say that the output level of the device is quite small but widely usable (basically like a micro dynamic recovery of speech) when it processes an output line.
No breath.
The three filter positions are rather caricatured, I think.
If used in a preamp output, it will not benefit from the work of the power section, where a sense of right and its more a response to the game a little different. But it may be a viable alternative because it provides enough clinical precision. Interesting mix in a charge.

As in any situation miking, it will surely equalize for an optimum yield. A flat, the sound is pretty loaded midrange and especially at the top around 3 kHz. Kind taken up by a Celestion V30 SM57 directed towards the center of the bowl. By positioning the "bright", it's worse. And inserted into the mix, you just sound like more than a pocket amp.
on the other hand, in "normal" position, after ascending the famous bass and declined in 3 KHz, we then present a sound, well-defined and rather realistic in any case widely exploitable.
Position "mellow" squarely cut the treble and I've never used. Perhaps for jazz with amps or rendering particularly acute.

To speak of pure quality, it will always be better than one taken with an old microphone placed in front of your HP or tear in a room without acoustic treatment. We have a real guitar sound very realistic. A blind test will silence the grumblers and the purists.

I adopted the HP simulators since the famous Red Box H & K (it'll be over 20 years, ouch). I own the Behringer GI100, which is active and also DI classic. I love the practicality of these tools are inexpensive, compact, and allow you to find your sound across freeing you from the elements such as room acoustics, the quality of the park or the talent of micro sondier.
I'm out of Red Box, too bland, but I keep Palmer and Beri have two different colors; the Beri is a bit dirtier and more dug in mediums, less precise but with a little more "air ".
In fact, we will choose one or the other depending on the amp you use.
After the concerts, I sometimes got positive reviews on my sound, but nobody ever noticed the use of these tools when I use them.

Approved.

For the adventurous, I also recommend the guitar preamp plugged into a Moog LPF or other synth. You tell me the news.
