Value For Money : Poor
Everyone connate the small red bean Line6, everyone knows what it is, everyone knows what it offers. In short, rehashing what line6 unintelligently offers clear on its website is nothing.
on the other hand I'll comment!

Dj on the physical aspect, it is cool, red, it makes trs vintage, but it is easy to install an amp on a shoulder of a computer table to the computer music etc.. The buttons look good. For cons, I find the version envisaged line6 "basic" of X3 Manir too restrictive, perhaps so as not to overshadow the X3 and X3 Live pro. Indeed, no XLR outputs, not of Variax, no MIDI for a box stall it rhythm synchronizes with the taptempo pod. In short, I'm tired of.

The sof is not rev it abounds modlisations complicated, effects of all kinds, not too hard to handle, should read the instructions (and again) once to understand the management and Dualtone c ' left.

Another big point dcevant is the absence of loop or loops to jam. On this point, stay on my hunger.

UTILIZATION

In his rle of computer music bote tools, it is great, but I often find it difficult to synchronize my ordis (iMac or netbook) for the management of audio inputs and outputs.

It is easy to use for anyone who is not too bte.

Something I'd like to set up, but I would need a ca pdalier (which the passage is unaffordable). It's a place to voice tone1 guiare (or low), and the other song. And not the touch of a switch on the pdalier, change and his guitar and his singing, ideal for a small bridge between two ostinatos. Besides if I could bnficier between the Variax, I free myself from the Casing Power ddi and even synchronize once a modlisation an amp mod Lisati guitar, and radically change its by the touch of a switch. FLEXIBILITY Flexibility and traditional hardware that would not.

SOUND QUALITY

I play several instruments, so I exploit fully the potential of the pod. For the guitar, I have a Variax, but I had the opportunity to plug a Cort semi-hollow jazz (big flat shooting son), a Gibson SG '61 rissue, a gibson flyingV, explore a LTD. I plug the pod into a power amplifier transistor and a firm not great. Each time, I released a trs trs sound good, except for the LTD, which had a flat rendering. Active pickups? violin average? I do not know how to explain it.
I also had the opportunity to plug the pod into a lamp with a good amp cab in Mount clestion (vintage80 I think). No Difference normment of my amp ... I speak honntement are my ears are the only judges, the appearance of pcunier trick is the least of my worries. My verdict is intgre!

So everything coming out of this beast is amazing. Absolutely fantastic. Make blind tests, and you go to tape more than one! The sound of the Vox AC30 and Orange are my prfrs. The marshall is the bomb, the jazzchorus for clean is terrible. Fender are all singing trs. I do not know the e MODELS original, I can not say whether the modlisations Fidler are, but they sound and I think it's essential. The choice abound, and we can tailor a sound CRER. Possibility dcuple with dual tone!

Regarding the bass, I have a Warwick $ $ 5c, and I remain a little. Some amps sound good, but the ampeg is modlisation trs average, and that of the mesa idem. I'm not as good as the original MODELS. Still, the bass sounds on offer in not sound, or at least not easily.

On acoustic, not bad or terrible, or horrible. After all, a sound is dubbed by micro point bar. Possibly a microphone in front of the rose, the pieso in the pod, we gre balance with the dual tone!

The vocals are not EMDU, it's always fun to stall full effect that would not normally do. The pod we offer them, so why not try, and possibly keep them. To progress in music, one must be curious!

OVERALL OPINION

For the price new is the BOMB!

Cons:
Not-noon
-Not of Variax
-No input / output XLR
Price-prohibitive pdaliers

the most:
-Sound of a multitude of high qualitbr trs />-selection of a range of unusual effects
FLEXIBILITY-in the use of sounds

The report is qualitprix normissime: for the 300th, having a sound as good as that of a large lamp. O On the gnashing of teeth of the "purists"!

Re-what would I choose? Yes, but for the pro version X3. I have a prfre pdalier spar and put my pod away from dbordements of beer in Caf'Conc '.
