UTILIZATION

Easy to use. You can make adjustments to the knobs instinctive, but the interest of the beast is no doubt that it was designed for the road.
Those who enjoy many concerts: you prepare before you leave your little interface with presets pc / mac, you paufines repeating and voilou, concert after concert, nothing to touch, t'allumes and you're ready to play.
The pedal is powered by the amp and it ROYAL; more galleries of power supply in the forefront (of cables around the feet, it's over), you got the names of your tracks that appear (you have prepared before you) on your pedals backlit recess, built-in tuner ...
In short, on stage, you have a jack and the cord that goes from the amp to the pedal. That's it!

Not to mention that there is no need to dub the micro amp outputs (mono or stereo) for these purposes are extras. And as the volume knob on the amp is independent of the level that is sent out on these and many not need to put the volume to donf on stage in handy when you're in a small club and you have the amp in mouth ... And the level will be at the front when the coat to him!

SOUNDS

Well, nothing to say. I played in on all the lamps (Laney VC100 + analog pedals of all kinds, a very British), but it was among the buzz, fragile lamps (again, on the road is important ... ) and just the sound quality, I prefer the Flextone ...

Those who think it's like a pod plugged into a power amp are wrong. And for good reason
before moving to the Flextone I tested in a small pod xt tour in the power amp of my laney. The sound was certainly good, but in fact nothing to do with the Flextone.
Why? Because that line6-out worked hard and developed a power amplifier adapted to this technology. In the end, it was an impressive dynamic and it should be noted that this amp is stereo! The two speakers of the amp is stereo! What makes your ping pong delay sounds in stereo, for example, guaranteed! And you find this in the stereo sound output also thanks to ...

Power level is the bomb, I never exceeded 4 ... In short, game guarantees comfort while being sure that what comes out the front is just as good!

How many times I met galéraient guitarists who live with their two bodies engl; donf have to make to make it sound ... and who came to see me at the end saying: "damn, that sounds pretty your thing here ... what is it?". I think today, the stack has no purpose except for style (but when you bringing your amp, the style quickly you forget ...) and studio recess.
In short, I do not spit above the stacks and the whole lamp, but I think that live there is not even possible comparison is so convenient and it sounds.

Personally, I used the line 6 also in the studio (pod xt pro, most complete studio that Flextone).
That's the only amp I plan after it is vetta2 ... And again, I think the Flextone is logically stronger than the Vetta (no screen) and it is a factor not to be overlooked when considering touring with.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 2 years now.
Everything is saying is the bomb live.

Really tried for those who do not know.
