MGR/RockingChristian « Behringer VAmp 2 »
Published on 12/15/02 at 15:00Bought 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
