AL_WNTR « Very versatile, »
Published on 01/21/12 at 05:27Amplification modeling. 36 amp simulations, simulations HP, 8 reverbs, 16 effects (delay, chorus, flange, tremolo, phaser, leslie, swell, echo, ping pong, compression, etc.).
4 programmable channels.
Power: 2 x 50W stereo transistor.
Two HP 12 'can be connected an external HP.
Instrument input.
Headphone out
2 HP
A DI output
Midi in, midi out.
4-way footswitch optional
Petty detail: The cable connecting the footswitch to the amp is a Line6 specificity. A kind of RJ45 cable, but you must use the model Line6 otherwise it does not work. I lost mine after a concert. In recommending a new lease took me and cost me a look: 25 euros for cable and 3 months of delivery.
UTILIZATION
The amp is incredibly versatile. With a few hours of practice to go around and effects simulations onboard, we arrive at more or less any sound: the sound crystal clear how Roland Jazz Chorus to the saturation of a thick Mesa, passing through grain type bluesy Vox, hyper accurate way of crunch or Fender distortion rock to Marshall.
The manual is super clear. The effects are convincing.
It should be a small adjustment period to get used to the method of selecting presets (all can be stored in four different channels)
SOUNDS
Hyper full. Stunning sound reproduction.
I used it mainly in rehearsal and on stage in two groups: one giving rather in the way emocore At The Drive-In, the other playing on much heavier loadings to Neurosis.
I used mainly simulations and Marshall JCM Mesa Rectifier. The illusion is perfect.
I play a PRS SE Standard and Standard Telecaster.
With the Tele, I am also amused to look for more bluesy or country grain with simulations or Blackface Fender Twin Amp. As for the other: it is ultra convincing after only a few nitpicking.
Power level: no complaints. it goes very hard. I had added an extension speaker cabinet Line 6. Ridiculous detail: the baffle is smaller than the amp. So, aesthetically, it gave an odd effect. But in the rendering, it was huge.
OVERALL OPINION
I used it for 7 years before I went to a stack of pro tube (in Engl Preamp, Mesa Poweramp 4x12 Celestion V30 and a yell to the beast).
He made excellent services, but these models often full digital, he ended up slamming into repeats. The amplifier stage dropped. One must recognize extenuating circumstances: I played for years with the volume of 7 to measure the double full-stack on the other guitarist. it does not forgive. But after seven years of loyal service, for a price after all quite ridiculous, I am more than happy.
I dismounted to retrieve the preamp that works very well. I use it as a Pod. And baffles are nickel: they will serve me to make me a new box 2x12.
This is clearly the kind of amp to buy used instead. it's always been the problem of Line6: the range is renewed very quickly. The models are quickly overwhelmed and quickly lose their resale value. That's all beneficial for those who prefer the second hand
If it again, I would not hesitate. Every amp I farted (the previous was a Peavey Bandit who also grilled after many years), I always go upmarket. This has made the job perfectly.
