Best value: Excellent
Amp modlisations
Big potato (well enough to stand before my Ampeg BA115 bass)
Connectivity complte: FX send / return in stereo, midi in / or / phones direct out and plug RJ45 pdalier.
So rglages possible with a pdalier MIDI or software ... sleepless nights to make a sound!
Effects will it only a Line6 amp offering "upgrades" (via MIDI and firmware).

UTILIZATION

Simple setup?
Uh ... not really! But this amp is as complete and MRIT domestic small small.
We must fix the obligation to go to sleep on pain of going crazy!

Sound is 99% excellent.
Obviously, this is modlisation, no intgration. You VIRTUALLY park amp and speakers with or without effects on hand, but it&#39;s not perfect ... approaching a lot!

Manual light and playful ... amp modliss a catalog photo and historical ... ammusant to find in the user manual of an amplifier amplifiers of other brands ... pass this element of surprise, it starts in front of the amp and / or PC and we toured the sounds ...

SOUNDS

You can do anything with!
blues calm largest mtal (the Uber Metal is in dj rgler ... just a little)
- On a Cort Zenox (frills) sound good ... hard dja
- ESP LTD Viper on a 400 (Gibson SG type force) is deadly.

with single coils, the sound is well prcis Dfine even in large saturations.
with double ... ben fit more than right!

There are 4 channels on it ... direct appeal from the control panel and what the rgler as desired. 2 channels and 2 saturation clear example ...

You can really do it all! I love ...

(Edit of March 5, 2006) New ultimate weapon: ESP Horizon Custom. It is even worse, the sound is heard more and more powerful prcis. On a single channel with a crunch, we pass from the roots clean a little soft and saturated fat by playing with the Tone and slecteur of scratching. Basically, the same channel is the directory that dfile blues and rock without making head. Advantage: no need to fiddle with the channels and presets. Inconvnient: I review all of my programs by lowering the volume and prampli mester! Arghh ... too good. This allows, by the way, to bypass the classical problem of the amp used in sub-rgime. I will not dwell on the sounds typsmtal (supposedly not unique Flextone3!) But just know that we just crossed the sound barrier always remaining volume pokey on the amp ... with passive humbuckers.

So good, So I&#39;m left with three remaining channels on the arms, which I attribute a "clean really clean and slightly rewarded with a chorus and a reverb," ​​a more troisime channel a little more "wild" but always trs "rock" and the last channel has become a "den of iniquity" which sound BIG METAL chih (Soldano and Mesa, according gots) story to the neighbors screaming.

Balance Sheet as at March 5, 2006: BAM! The Flextone spit all its power and see his note 10 passes. And believe me it is justified.

OVERALL OPINION

It&#39;s shiny new ...

In ordinary times I&#39;m the bass or electronic gear, but the I rgale!
I spent a lot of time tweaking my bass sound and I love the sound when the rgls well I&#39;m in heaven.

The MIDI connections with the soft and the possibility to balance presets via squenceur (it works!)
it&#39;s terrible.

I sifted through everything: the amp with a cheap pdalier effects or POD with big amps lamps
Marshall, Hughes & Kettner, Mesa, Soldano ... trs the Line6 is doing well and at lower cost.
It&#39;s worth 600 euros.

When I port the total labor amps to compare it prcisement mule, I&#39;d sign!

(Edit of March 5, 2006) Still as versatile amplifier is an enjoyable daily. Not the mark of a good grain big amp lamps (like, for example an ENGL!) But the report size / versatility / price is a record. The weak point is its Flextone3 bowl a bit too "soft" and unworthy I got the rest. I would have had to choose the version most CHRE with HP output and 2 * 12 trs but hard to find in France. Still, this amp is excellent in many styles with no effect pedals. Power, but the poster is too dj Submitted below the motivation of the MASTER, which is pretty f *** snack when you&#39;re in an apartment! To give you an ide, when I get to the bottom volume all the juice of a lead, my master is up ... 1 and a half! When I said it spits!

With exprience ... I think I would do the same choice. almost alone on the market of versatile combo MODLIST. A beautiful machine trs effective registration (for the FX / SEND to those without a + or XL version) a little less easy low volume, but trs well provided for play in clubs and rpt.

Nothing to do with a VOX MODLIST or with the SPIDER. Srieux of stuff and lasting a little too powerful for some players cowards!
