All user reviews for the Behringer V-Amp 2

We find everything needed: 32 amp simulations of reference, 15 baffles legend and guitarist essential effects: noise efficient gate, compressor, wah-wah, rverb (including spring), chorus, trmolo ...

Between a and a MIDI output can control the device from his computer prfr grace a free software tlchargeable from the Behringer website (the V-Amp Editor) and save carefree all prsets that was either-even concoct. Finally, the site also offers other users' presets, Confirms or amateurs.

The connection between a prvoit instrument, between auxiliary and two line outputs (left-right). The bbte comes with a transformer, a double foot-switch, all in a beautiful padded cover.

A tuner is built-device: it is little prcis given the display but consituera about a solution acceptable to some raccordages scniques.

Finally, 5 output configurations allow you to parry any studio or live use (these configurations allow you live eg send a signal in the output Left with HP simulation in a mixer and another in the output Right without HP simu to a guitar amp).

In short nothing is missing, at least in comparison with a POD, one remains in the nails.

USE

A little reading the manual to quickly become familiar with the V-Amp and any guitarist who has at least once in her life used a multi effect will not Drout the possible rglages and accessibility.

The edition is even easier and accuracy of all via the V-Amp editor software since in this case, all parameters are clearly visible. But even without a, it is relatively easy to find the location of all rglages.

Except perhaps for the plac compressor pr-fx does not seem to be directly dbrayable of the device (or so I have not found.

The manual is quite clear and relatively well Detailed especially on diffrentes output configuration possibilities (Stuio and live).

SOUND QUALITY

To have tried POD, I find the Behringer much less cold and downright more bluffing branch on a sound system. The sound is warm and prcis some distos are flamboyant and close grain amps they imitate (including distos kinds Marshall, Soldano and Mesa).

The clean sounds are not all about them usable but still it happens quickly find happiness especially around the clean and classic tweed combo.

Blues sounds / crunch are a little more difficult rgler (including the American Blues that "dirty" quickly in severe), but also bring their personality.

In short, even if everything is not perfect, the sound palette is broad enough that everyone will find happiness.

Even the wildest distos are possible: I plug my Gibson All American II team of two single-coil pickups (small but mighty) and a config "Modern Hi Gain (Soldano) - 4x12" V-Amp Custom ", a hard !!!

Home studio, it's up, everything is at hand without wake up the neighbors and the sound is, as long as we linger a little on the rglages, excellent. However, little advice for good integration in a mix: avoid the internal compressor and the rverb for recording; These are effects that it is better placed after, plug-in if you want to get crisp, prcis and easy to use in a more or less complex mix.

NOTICE GLOBAL

I use the gear for 7 or 8 months and I do not get enough; I use it exclusively for the home studio at the moment and I find all the sounds I need.

Branch on my table and out of my monitors (Behringer B2030A) is stunning; even the finest Feedback are possible and sound like on a real amp.

Like a real amp, you have to "grow" the volume a bit to realize sound (try to ring a double Soldano large body leaving 1/2 volume ...). And like any multi Indeed, we must devote a little time to find its rglages (forget the factory presets, they are actually all chuls deny).

The quality-price ratio is very good compared POD (even if the POD baiss lately). I bought it 170 there eight months while the POD was worth the era PERQUE 300.

Today, it is found 130 max (POD remains in the 200). As the difference between the two smaller models, there are now more reasons to hsiter but the V-Amp 2 remains for me a very good product.

I originally wanted to get a J-Station after borrowing a friend's unit. They were on sale for $99 on the internet. Bythe time I decided to buy it I couldn't find it!
I was looking for a modestly priced effects unit to use at home and for occasional gigs. Another friend mentioned that he had tried out the V-Amp 2 and liked it. I played the unit and thought it sounded transparent and clean - something I was looking for. I didn't especially like the guitar shape because it looks more like a toy or a gadget for a little kid. But the price ($129.95 plus tax) and the sound persuaded me to get it. I wasn't disappointed.

You can pay a lot of money for effects, so price was important to me. I wanted to get as much bang for my buck as possible. The cost of this unit was a plus. The unit has a wide range of pre-programmed sounds with names that sort of identify the nature of the sound. This is handy to get you familiar with the range of possibilities. You can alter and tweak any of these presets easily. There are many different amp sounds and a lot of effects (read the specs for details) The unit gives you tremendous flexibility. I also appreciate how quiet this unit is. My unit has 25 banks with 5 presets on each bank. You can find a sound on any bank and transfer that sound(preset) to any other bank easily. Simply find the sound then tap to the bank and preset button you want and hold down that preset button for about two seconds. That's all there is to it. You can then set up a bank of five different effects for the gig your playing. The footswitch allows you to select any of the 5 presets on one bank. You can also bypass the amps and just use the effects. The reverb is good and quite flexible

I do not like having to unplug the unit at the wall outlet. No on-off switch. I'm thinking I will get a power strip to plug it into and switch that off and on.
I probably would rather have a footswitch to stomp directly to the sound I want rather than the up-down footswitch. The unit does not have any harmonizing effects.

The basic unit is fairly solid and seems durable but be careful with the knobs. I accidentally broke one. The shaft of the knob is hollow plastic! I repaired it by carving a small wooden dowel to fit inside the two parts of the plastic shaft and glued it back with a tiny amount of gorilla glue. Works fine now. So be careful with those knobs!


If you appreciate quality effects at a very reasonable price I think you could be quite happy with this unit. It will provide many hours of fun with a bunch of amp sounds and effects. If you are hard on equipment you might want a more durable unit you can kick around a little more.

I bought it at Guitar Center for $130.00. I've been in the market for a high quality tube amp but the prices were way out of reach so I decided to look into amp modelers. I checked out the Line 6 POD and was impressed but then I found the Behringer V-amp on the web. I was really impressed with the features and the price, so I went to Guitar Center and tried one out. I was hooked!

The flexibility, the quality, the price, the included foot switch and carrying case which the POD doesn't include, but mostly the tone. It really does have all the sounds I need and then some.

No on/off switch which I've learned to live with.

Even though the unit has a plastic case, I feel it's well built and sturdy enough to gig with.

I've been familiar with Behringer products for some time and know that they make good quality products. The V-AMP 2 is just another testiment to their high standards. I would recommend it anyone. In fact, My bass player liked mine so much, he went out and bought the Bass V-AMP.

£89 from www.studiospares.com

The Behringer V-Amp 2 has swiftly become a necessity in my PC orientated studio as it's features fulfil all of my needs when recording guitar directly into my computer.

Most importantly it provides very realistic amp sounds and speaker simulation. It also eliminates the dreaded 'flatness' from PC recorded audio signals and works wonderfully as a DI or pre-amp into a soundcard.

It's signal processing and audio effects are of such high quality (24bit) that I'm still surprised it cost just 89 quid. With additional features such as a chromatic tuner, MIDI interface (you can download the software from it's official site www.v-amp.com) a free foot controller and much, much more it's fair to say that I feel totally spoiled by Behringer

It's amazing how versatile this piece of equipment is in the studio and I urge any serious musician to buy one immediately. I've produced many professional recordings with it and for it's price, you can't go wrong.

If you're purchasing the Behringer V-Amp 2 as a means of plugging it into your existing amp at band practice, convinced that it'll somehow instantly convert your battered equipment into a professional sounding rig then you're gonna be disappointed.

The Behringer V-Amp should not be approached the way you would one of your standard guitar effect pedals either as it's totally wasted in that area. It's more suited for a recording musician and if you're not 'that type' of guitarist then chances are you wont enjoy this device.

The slight delay when operating the foot pedal is nothing really to cry about but that and the lack of a power switch make the V-Amp lose a coolness point.

Like most amp modelers the V-Amp is shaped like a guitar which bugged me at first but hey, it fits neatly 'ontop' of other things which I suppose is what it was designed for.

It's very durable and tough but naturally it's an electronic device and wasn't made to be thrown around rooms and stuff.

I'm confident that it's solid construction will keep it safe from me on a bad day.

This is an essential, 'must have' device for PC guitarists and in my opinion officially rivals it's more expensive counterparts.

Bottom line, it's cheap, sounds awesome and does the job, what more could you want?

I bought it from a music store in Finland, because I needed it for recording demos. It was new and its price was 170 €.

The modelled amps doesn't sound perfect, but at least for me they are enough good. Effects are enough good for me also. With lots of modelled amps and effects it offers great varity of different sounds, which probably are suitable at least considering the price.

I play mostly rock and pop, maybe some blues, and even metal at times. V-amp2 offers credible sounds for all those styles. I'm pretty pleased with its sounds.

It takes a little bit work to learn to use it well, and because I'm lazy, it is almost too much. Using single effect boxes would be much easier, because they have only one function with each knob.

The lack of power switch is also a bit of a nuisance, but there is quite simple resolution for that problem.

The device is well constructed so it probably won't break right away. The quality otherwise is pretty good too.

It isn't perfect, but it gets pretty close, so it is worth buying, if you need something like this for making demos for example. It is also great for practising.

Paid too much, $160

I only use this device for the effects and the tuner, so pertaining to those I like it.


The Amp simulation is horrible. If Behringer would have just focused on good tone instead of so many useless Amp simulations they would have a better product. The absolute worst thing about this device is that the footswitch takes like 3 days to respond and bank over to the next preset. That makes the V AMP completely useless for me. I play in a metal band and just cant have 2 seconds of silence every time I need to switch presets, I need a device that will switch channels within milliseconds, and do so seamlessly. I believe that their is a better footswitch on the market that may respond faster being as it would use the midi port, but I am not about to put any more money towards this device. I also work as a recording engineer and my opinion is that the device is pretty much useless in the studio with the exception of the effects and tuner. I think I am going to purchase what my lead guitarist has: A Rocktron Chamelion, more money but oh well ya get what ya pay for. BUYER BEWARE

Good construction but what good is that if the Amp sims sound crappy and the footswitch is slow?

If you're a beginning guitarist who wants a cool toy from mommy and daddy for xmas, put this on your wishlist. BUT if you are a serious guitarist, in a band, or involved in any studio recording... STAY AWAY.

I purchased this unit via a good local dealer in my area of London. I paid £100 which seemed like a good price for all the amp sounds I was supposedly going to have coming through my speakers.

On this unit, there are not many great things about it but I must say that it is designed well and easy to operate. The effects are quite good. E.G - Delay, Echo and Phaser.

When I first got this unit, I was very excited to hear the sounds it gave me after 6 months of a very bad practice amp. Won't mention any names <cough> Park <cough>. However by the end of the evening, I was missing something and I didn't know what it was. After months of trying to make myself like it, I have got increasingly annoyed with it's thin, digital and cold sounds.

There are about 2 or 3 amp models that are usable. Furthurmore, the sampling rate is 31khz!! Now, excuse me if I'm wrong but CD is 44.1 and that's the least people record in these days. I got very confused as to the fact that they didn't bother to put a power switch on the unit so the only way one is going to turn it off is by getting up and going to the wall socket.

I recommend this to someone who has got neighbours that just won't tolerate the noise level of a good amp. Also to someone who knows that they are going as far as demo's only. Please, if you have spent all your cash on mixers, guitars, mics etc. Please don't talk yourself into buying the unit because it's cheap.

The construction seems to be well thought out.

It's quite typical for Behringer to make a unit look like the best one around by it's fancy packaging and looks but what you get when you run your audio through it, make sure you place many cushions behind you so you don't faint with pure terror at the bad quality. This applies to mostly all it's equipment. I have sold this and will soon be moving on to a Marshall AVT275 Valvestate amp which will absolutely kick this thing up in to space.

Havent bought it yet.
But I have had one on trial for several days.
I have done many hours of testing it and comparing it to my Pod thru a whole range of guitars!!
I will buy one next week!

Firstly I read the review by Andy The Tone Freak saying it had the worst sound he had ever heard.
Now I am pretty old, I have played thru Fenders,Marshalls...you name it...I was a guitar cult figure in the 70s and very well known in the country I grew up in, grew up playing hendrix style and blues and later hard rock...so I have had lots of experience.
Andy...unfortunately has his head totally up his arse.
I really think he probably didn't check this unit out at properly at all...does he know how to work a noise gate?
I am fussy I have a really good recording studio with Joe Meeks, Valve mics and so on and I love this unit.
So Lets get down to it.
Comparing this to the Pod...its much more versatile than the Pod (not the XT...I wont be buying one of those) but the Pod 2, it sounds every bit as good and often better.
With a bit of tweaking you can get sooo many sounds...I LOVE IT!!!
I am seeling my Pod, Line 6 stuff is OVERPRICED!!! to the max..forget it, buy a Behringer.

Nothing really

Its a bit more plasticy than the Pod...but it looks and feels more hi tech.
Love the lights display and ergonmics.

Dont listen to bullshit..use your ears.
Line 6 stuff is not better than the Behringer even though it costs five times more.
The V-Amp is a great unti and I love it, it is very usefull and much more versatile than the original Pod.

Bought at Texas Music Emporium (in texas) for $130.

All of its functions are performed well. It is extremely versatile and can run from the most warm and moody clean to the exteme in razor sharp heavy metal distortion (which is exactly what I bout it for). It also spits out a decent crunch for a dynamic blues sound. Then there are the effects which are not as dynamic as I would have hoped but are pointless to me since I dont use any anyway.

The intent for me was to replace my my array of 2 cheezy sounding distortion pedals, hardly a task for the v-amp 2; what I got was many very nice sounding versions of insane distortion, and in that arena the POD can't touch it. This thing can really play metal!

Most importantly you cant beat the price.

It does not accomplish the number one thing it claims to do: make accurate models of various amps and speaker cabinets. I can say that none of the amps that are on its list sound like the origian, or even close; and the speaker simulation leans the sound in the direction of the cabinet but the overall effect just waters down the sound, forcing me to turn it off and leaving me with an overly sharp tone.

However, this piercing tone can be equalized into a much smoother and extremely badass tone, especially if you are playing through big cabinets with thier own characteristic sound shape.

For example when recording with my computer or practicing with my 10 watt crate, I turn on the hi gain setting and use a 4 12 cab sim. When live I use 2 4-12 cabs and no speaker sim. Speaker sim on top of actual speakers sound very very bad. I would say for the ideal recording just mic your cabs.

Also the footswitch that comes with the unit is very slow to respond, and switching on the unit in general causes skitzofrenic
blasts of guitar nonsense untill the preset is loaded.

For whatever reason they shaped this thing like a telecaster-les paul mutant. I dont know why, its really silly. Plus dont drop it, its plastic and has some weight.

The interface is very simple and intuitive, i figued out 90% of the operation in the store without any instruction. You can dial in whatever you want in seconds. Plus all of the dials are analog with LEDs as pointers which makes for exelent on the fly tweaks, except for one dial, the master volume(good idea).

This is one sexy econo-unit. The cost to function ratio is much higher than anything else on the market. Most importantly it just sounds very nice, no matter what sound you are going for.

Bought it a the now defunct Mars Music for $139 because I needed effects & amp modeling.

The amp tones are great & the effects are easy to use. It takes some work but worth creating custom patches. I had to get a MIDI foot controller because the unit is hard to use onstage. You could put it on top of an amp though, but on the floor = not good.
I really like the array of inputs & outputs- very important if you have a synth setup (GR-33)- so you can run everything through 1 unit to your amp.

They should have made a floor model.

Construction is adequate. Sonic quality is very good. You will have to tweak the EQ, gain etc. depending on your guitar setup/output.

IMO you get your money's worth plus with Beringer equipment.
You can setup your custom patches with your PC- I liked that.
The POD is very good, but for my needs the VAmp 2 was more than adequate.
The IO options were excellent once you got used to them

I got mine at Lentine's Music in Akron, Ohio, for only about $120 after a coupon. They have gone up in price since they first came out, because people are finally realizing how huge of a deal this unit is. About a week after I got mine, the other guitarist in my band went out and got one.

I was able to test the V-Amp 2 side by side with the POD 2.0 and play with the amp models and effects of each. After messing around for about 20 minutes, I was convinced that the V-Amp should make Line 6 pretty scared. The V-Amp 2 gives you plenty of control over the amp models and tweaking of the gain, bass, midrange, treble, and presence. It seemed to have a more intuitive interface than the POD. You have to mess around with combinations of effects and reverb to get just the right tone, just like you would in a real amp setup. 125 presets can be stored in it, which you can switch between with the included footpedal. I've also used it with my acoustic-electric, and it adds some very nice reverb and warmth! Also comes with a gig bag. Altogether an amazing deal that will add some sparkle to any rig, in the studio or live.

Strangely enough, it has no power switch. That wouldn't be much of a bother, except that Behringer adds a little warning in the manual about being sure to plug the AC adapter into the V-Amp before plugging the cord into the power source. I had ignored this caveat for awhile, until one day all my presets were totally screwed up and I had to reset the unit. It's not that big of a deal though...just remember to plug stuff in the right order. One other little thing: some players really familiar with the classic, warm tube amps may notice a slight 'metallic' sound from some of the tube models. I can only tell because I also have a vintage Twin Reverb.

It seems to be very portable, durable, and well-built. The quality of the amp models and effects is great for the price. I'll admit that there was a slight difference in tone realism between the V-Amp and the POD, but, like I said earlier, I don't think it's worth spending double the price...

An excellent little unit for a breakthrough price. Behringer has continued to stun me with their quality and price-effective products. If your ear is already well-trained to the sound of high-end amps and equipment, you'll probably want to check out the POD XP or something like that. But for the masses who just want to produce great-sounding music, the V-Amp 2 is it!

I paid 150 Euro for it new from a local music store. I couldn't resist it when I looked at it and thought of the high overall rating at www.harmony-central.com of it.

I liked the tuner in it, but it was my first tuner so I can't tell if it is a good or bad one, but it worked I think. I guess a few effects in it was good too, but not awesome. I liked the bag and it was a pretty good design.

The sound!! It was the worst sound I've ever heard, so extremely noisy in every imaginable way. It has only a sampling rate at 31,125 kHz and that is much too low if you are a tone freak like me. The price on this thing describes it all. It's a toy for beginners. The dist is awful the tones are sharp and digital. It makes a 2000$ guitar sounding like a 200$ one! (don't buy!)

It seemed to be a well made product.

I would give it 1, but because of the low price and the tuner that worked I give it a 2, people that rate it higher rate it as a product, but as a music gear it is not worth more than a 2 for what it does. I played with my Fender Richie Sambora USA strat, and I prefer not having it in my gear, I returned it. A good decision! Bottom line: Don't buy it, search for good tones instead!

I wanted arecording tool. I purchased this at Guitar Center. The price was $129.00.

First off, the tones are excellent. I demoed this unit versus the POD 2.0. There were some variations between the two, but I coudn't really decide between them based on tone and features.
The high gain stuff is great, but the gritty patches blew me away. Those clean tones with just the right break up when you WHAP the strings. This does that very well.

Features and tone not being an issue between the two models (pardon the pun nowadays), it then became a choice of price (including case, footswitch, etc.) vs. construction. More on this to follow.

At this point, there's nothing that I don't like about the unit.

OK, the construction. This is NOT a metal chasis, it's plastic. This might be a problem for some, but it's not an issue here.
First, I keep my equipment in the best possible condition that I can. Sure, if this took a fall, it might get damaged, so I won't let that happen. In 20 years, I've never had that happen, and I won't start now.
Also, the knobs have a nice feel, and the LED's are a great way to set your parameter values.

I am thrilled with this unit. They've done a great job and the sounds are top-notch. The interface is easy to use. I would buy this again, and certainly recommend it to a friend.

T said it all.

UTILIZATION

Simple as a general rule, it is not always easy to manipulate its small buttons but the portability is great, however, necessarily.

SOUND QUALITY

The sounds are like the design of the machine, hideous, dsiquilibrs volume
and intensity is just repeating or unusable live.
In the room with headphones it's perfect for fun.

OVERALL OPINION

It sounds very cheap, it's simply unusable by repeating or live.
In the room with headphones it's okay to have fun.
It is best done in the same price range, go your way.

These aspects have dj t Retailer in the previous ones opinion ...

UTILIZATION

The functions available are clear trs. I did not have to open the doc to exploit them.
The edition sounds (choices and rglages amp, HP) is empty. The manual is clear that the French version is widely incomplte trs. We are obliged to consult the documentation in English for advanced functions.
The V-amp is a box of the same mystrieuse: imagine a Ferrari, you know she can run 300 but does not give you the gear lever (damn). The bote contains a lot of possibilities that are not accessible. For example: the front can not combine the effects of his choice. It provides a set of prselections (not always sound). The total programming can be done via a PC with MIDI and software "v-amp design," tlchargeable free at Behringer. From there the entire CASC bte: a rgal!
The look a little fake and fragile. Attention to transport.
The connection is complte and even if it seems brittle it is pretty good quality (inputs and outputs symtrique). One regret: no effects loop.

SOUND QUALITY

The amp tones are good trs without knowing whether the models are really Fidler (is it really important?). For a long time on the marshall jou, I can say is that the JCM800 MODEL trs close to the original. Some models sound better than others but all are usable. I play Classic and Lag Roxanne MODELS Jtm45 Marshall, JCM800, Soldano, Matchless (among others) resortent well.
The effects are Ingals quality.
The pros:
compressor
echo and delay
chorus and flanger
some rverbes
The -:
phaser
Rotary (????)
some rverbes
either the + or -
auto-wah
wah
some rverbes.

OVERALL OPINION

I use the v-amp for a year. I buy version 1 and 2 is to evolve (chgmt EPROM). The strengths of the device are its sound quality good on scne trs and really excellent recording. The diversity of sounds is a device adapted to all kinds of music. Weaknesses: no on / off switch, the format is not well suited to the scne (but a good work). Before buying I test the pod (sounds exagerment boost in the midrange on all models, bandwidth limit price), the j-station (sounds good but a little flat, the price 'era) Yamaha D-stomp (sounds so so I got).
I do not regret my purchase because it is the best cost / performance ratio.

The V-Amp (2) is an amp simulator. It can reproduce sounds and SETTING THE sounds of 32 amps clbres and / or mythical. It also provides the simulation of 15 speakers and is equipped with a multi-effects INTERESTED.

It is equipped among other things, a line between Stereo, a headphone output and in / out MIDI (to receive patches or back).

The whole is enclosed in a blue plastic Casing. T have a carcass mtallique fits most, especially when the fate often (RPET, concerts). Similarly, the connector jack (still plastic) seem a little fragile.

The V-Amp comes standard with a footswitch and a convenient carrying case.

Upgrades to the EPROM, the editors, patches are tlchargeables free sites and the Behringer V-Amp (www.v-amp.com)

UTILIZATION

Adj for anyone used a guitar amp, the use of basic functions is simplisime: it contains the classic CONTRL (gain, bass, middle, treble, volume, master). In addition, Access in DIFFERENT amps and effects is equally simple.

Moreover, except Master Volume, potentimtres are all continuous rotation and position is indicated by a red LED. Gnial in dark places.

The patches are classs in 25 banks of 5 sounds. Access in patches of a bank is ais: either by direct ACCS with one of five buttons, or with the two buttons pdalier. Important: there is a small latency (1 sec) when changing patch. It can interfere when necessary to change its instantanment.

L or less is nice, it's Access in "second paramtres" (Presence, 2nd paramtre effects, 17 amps -> 32). It must indeed use two hands at the same time to change them. Ds difficult when direct costs rglages (unless your name is and that Hendrix plays with teeth!).

The five configurations are gnrales trs INTERESTED: they allow to adjust the V-Amp to the hardware it is connected (table mix, guitar amp, power amp, etc..) And change the qualisation gnrale altrer without the patches. To resolve the effect INTERESTED 'Fletsher - Munson'.

SOUND QUALITY

I can not indicate whether the V-Amp sounds are close or not simulated amps.

Anyway, this machine hard. I directly connect my mixer. And the sound that comes out of my speakers Hi-Fi is just as good as a guitar amp.

The mdaille is primarily for distortions in which the bass and harmonics of clatent Manir extraordinary. It is possible to obtain grains of all kinds and trsralistes. Scores high enough and the harmonics, however, lack of sustain.

Clean sounds are a little poorer. Similarly, unfortunately there is no acoustic amp simulator.

OVERALL OPINION

For those familiar with the German firm BEHRINGER, the ratio quality / CHARACTERISTICS / price is not surprising: it is quite gnial.

The few criticisms I make are:
- The memory is upgradable by changing the EPROM. A flash memory does have more practical
- The plastic case seems somewhat fragile. In addition, the cables that leave all cts are not esttiques trs (rack version would be INTERESTED)
- The ACCS is not certain paramtres boards. Supplmentaire a button for a dj Presence is more
- The power connector is not universal (very annoying when the transformer is dead or when we forget - another will not be compatible).

Everything else is taken, including the after-sales service of Behringer, fast, friendly and efficient.

The report price is fabulous KALIT
ben with the experience of one day, yeah I do it again the same choice, and I will do everything to form a club

see you soon kisss

Well, almost everything has been said I think ... About the connection, to point out that the MIDI cable is not provided, or the software must be downloaded.
Taking power supply is pretty bizare ... say not very universal ... The day she crame hello anxiety to find a
The autowha shall have been more 'Settings' for my taste.
And a small effect of pitch would have been cool.
Otherwise, it's ok ...

UTILIZATION

The, I would say average ...

Some options are only available when using two keys at once (eg presence of distortion, 2nd effect parameters, 2nd bank of amps). As I always usually a hand on the guitar to see what gives the mod is not very practical. Well, in the long run you get to use one hand but it's not very practical.

Another bad point: the latency between two preset changes, especially if the amps are very different (up to 1 second ...)

The 'drive' (to boost the sound a little more) is only available if you enter the edit mode, so you can easily change the gain ...

The color of certain entries is very difficult to read (white on blue ... blah ...)

It lacks an on / off switch.

on the other hand, very good point when using the 3-band équlizer and reverb (just like an amp).

Also, the pedals work pretty good. For the price, it is even surprising that it is delivered!

Finally, very good for small carrying case.

SOUND QUALITY

Of excellent, very good ... and also not so good.

Some amps are frankly crap ... (Sorry for the word). Say that it does not look like the original, I do not know (I know the original ...), but I play almost every style of music, I'm certain that I never use of them! (Some distos yuck).

It lacks a little amp with good clean sound (I use 3 only).

For cons, I love the rest. Being able to mix the grain of an amplifier with HP you want. It's simple: my twin + Start + 4x12 'and the sound I waited for years!

I use almost my metal zone thanks to Rectified, high gain, and ultimate company. Frankly, just for that, the v-amp is worth it. And thanks to the pots bass / mid / tri / presence / gain / reverb, I really feel like using an amp.

Some are excellent reverbs (spring reverb, I love). Effects (chorus, phaser, flanger) are very good and are not too 'electronic'

This little trick and really the top to Register ... I plug in my sound card and presto, it works and the best part is that it sounds thanks to HP simulators.

Finally, very good point on the signal / noise ratio.

OVERALL OPINION

Voila ... I've had a molis and I can say that I am not disappointed by this little v_amp2. The value for money is unbeatable. For that alone, I put a 9. Yes it has its flaws, but I think that each device of this type also (eg the price of some ...).

What I love most: the feeling of using a real amp.
What I like less: the loading time between two sounds ... frankly painful at times
What I like to have: more buttons to avoid using two buttons at once.

Since I have, I put my MT and I rarely use my amp to shit me rotten sound. I use so I plug in headphones or on my channel (do not worry, it encaise well distos full of big bass and treble).

A consultant to all, including those seeking to start a multi purpose, except those who want wahwah. Although it is possible to add an expression pedal, the price of the pedal is so high that it is not worth the time. To these people there are two possibilities: either buy a separate wah pedal, or take the little korg (1000 I think) that contains a pedal. But in this case, you lose the quality of the vamp

In conclusion, it should be remembered that the v-amp is a multi effects but an amp simulator. I would say that the effects are just a bonus. For the price, do not deprive yourself!

Well it will be understood, this is an amp simulator similar to clebre POD did not think that any time soon .... dTRON error!
Modlisation rather Fidler for sounds in distortion / crunch. Clean sounds a bit limited ....
Everything is on a PC via ditable MIDI and a little app that fishing on the net and I speak after the rvolution because it is the!

UTILIZATION

Sounds very easy plant are properly calibrated, a small reading the manual is needed to tweak their own patches.

SOUND QUALITY

The effects are faithful their names.
My config Password: Lag Boss ME6 + the blues + VS100HR Marshall (in other words a small truck to move all a. ..)
My current config: Lag The Blues + + V-Amp ... c and not all! and everything is in my 206! What a joy!

OVERALL OPINION

I have this bug for 1 year, I've added a MIDI foot controller, behringer home to make it more easy in live. I hallucinated by downloading the models of 'sounds' on the Behringer site and all too easy by downloading the file in the blue thingy, a ring !!!!! Proof: I use my Marshall virtually no yet gave me so much happiness! And a funny little story: when I repeated, and I euhh hacks a little blue thingy, a guy came and told me 'c koi that stuff? Your sound Bertignac but spell o? I have a VOX AC30 and an SG and I never Russia to the EC! "

KOR

CHARACTERISTICS trs compltent see description.

UTILIZATION

The use is very simple to use studio, especially with the latest software for computer control of the bte tlchargeable free on the Behringer site. The edition is trs sounds intuitive and simple to implement. Only downside utlisation the two buttons simultanment to change a parameter, and no time value for rglage tempos (bp over thanks to the software control). Less convenient to play on scnes, its true place is in a studio.

SOUND QUALITY

Effects of good quality rverbs beautiful and large, delay and modulation without rglages utlise be ready or nearly so. The distortions are full and trsralistes MODELS from the amp they imitate. Respect the MODELS gain amp (no sound on the type mtal Fender Twin Reverb). Warning against by the gain on the amp modlisation a clear trend, because we get a sound less and less prcis slamming.
I use it with diffrent guitars: Fender Strato, Peavey Eddie Van Halen, US Steinberger, Yamaha AES 800, Fender Telecoustic and guitars for the most part cites Di Marzio pickups (Tone Zone, YJM, specially custom, etc ... Go Steeve
My favorite preset on modern Hi Gain, 4 X 12, 5 rverb and delay, and c for the tapping party ............

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for over a year, I possde of Boss pedals, Marshall. I had and use multiple effects and pdalier, Boss ME-33 Boss GT-6, 4040 ZOOM, ZOOM GFX 8, Digitech, TC Electronics G-Major, Korg AX 1500 G, Art, ADA MP1 and MP2 etc. ... The Behringer V-amp for the price is a imcroyable machine which takes a bit of all these machines and to allow guitarists or confirmed amateurs create their own sounds that can not afford to have a twin, of a Rectifier, one Roland, an Engel ....

32 amp simulations with Soldano, Fuzz, etc ...
15 simulations of HP.
16 effects, including self Wah-Wah, Compressor, Chorus, Echo, Delay, etc. ....
Adjustable Gate + tuner.

S / N ratio of 90 dB ...
Analogue / digital / analog.

Entered an asymmetrical guitar and a stereo auxiliary input ...
1 headphone, 2 balanced line outputs ..
Midi In and Midi Out / Thru ...

Foot Switch 2 buttons

UTILIZATION

Getting started not very obvious at first but I'm not
very good I must say ^ / / ^!
I spell better with the V-Amp Design software 1.2 download
the site of Behringer ... http://www.behringer.com/

SOUND QUALITY

Of his fabulous quaned it falls on the right set ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it since January 2004. I love the sounds I can get along with,
although I often struggle to effectively use the noise gate: ^ /!
This is my first multi-effects. I ordered it to € 139 in Hugoceps (http://www.hugoceps.com)
so I think having a great deal ^ o ^!

http://www.aremus.com/produit.asp?dep=&pid=887&aid=2564&uid=040205214212824230373
So much for the product description which is also very complete.
Carrying case and pedal provided a "serial".
It is well to buy a MIDI cable to be found in supermarkets to take advantage of the beast.
It is not to transfer presets and that's excellent.
(Cf. below)

UTILIZATION

The most is that creates a sound with the logciel pc is that happiness is fairly simple.
There are tons of presets available on the net and in addition there is a software comvertir presets presets in the pod v-amp 2.
The least, the manual leaves three and a half to complete a product as we would have liked more explanation because if you experience no effects galley is enough to understand everything about how to rule the beast itself ...
To use the beast, a twin or a sound if it blah and that's very boring.
I find the record sufficiently constrain (Fautré I say a pc and cubase and sound show serious distortion c chelou, but that's a blow on my pc ...)

SOUND QUALITY

The effects included are pretty good, but the great interest is being able to add presets according to these musical tastes.
The custom distos are rather convincing. I use little clean sound but nothing else matters is a wonder ...
The effects are generally good (at least those which I used).
the tap tempo delay in the solos, the fact serious ca ...
The wah is pleasantly correct for a modeler, I mean for a modeler ...
Although some (rare) use the presets really

OVERALL OPINION

I use the v-amp some me now and I do not regret my purchase.
The only real problem is the twin or the sound system to enjoy its plains.
Otherwise it's perfect, I do not regret my purchase.
We find the v-amp 2 150 pretty easily.

Srement it all, I dunno, I'm not a guitarist.

UTILIZATION

A lot of knobs your checks directly to rglages is practical and fast.

SOUND QUALITY

Well, no, frankly, not worth a POD. To have used the two as ING's, I refer the V-Amp directos behind the scenes!
The attack was drowned, The definition is filthy, it's a galre out of the mix without a scratch cover other instruments. Play alone, the guitar is bleuffante is true. The sound parat standard, it's flattering. But useless in most cases. What shocked me is that it compltement contrast to the POD. One branch, you can play, the volume rises and skyscrapers includes himself alone in the mix without having to do any editing.
With the V-Amp, you spend your time touching the volume. And even the guitarist complained to disagree in the back while he is dj stronger than all others. It does not happen with a POD.

OVERALL OPINION

If you want to play alone in your chanmbre is the trick for you. For a more srieuse, go your way.
I have no shares in Line6 but no one has made the diffrence in my studio recordings between POD and a real amp (and certainly not the guitarists who have recorded not long be bewitched s with this little bean, leaving ct their personal amp!).
