| Subject: | What a deal!!! |
| Quality:
| Decent. I have used it for over a year in my rack and have had no problems. |
| Reliability:
| No problems after a year of use so far. I take good care of my equipment so I have not given this abuse that would break it however I do use it a lot and everything is working fine still. |
| Overall:
| For the money this is probably one of the best deals out there. Unlike another comment on this product, I have had no problems at all using the Behringer FCB 1010 MIDI Controller Foo Board with this product. It works great! Just download the FREE PC or Mac software editor from the Behringer or Yahoo user groups. Simple. It does take some learning if you have never used something like this but then so would any product you are using for the first time. Duh. The factory Preset patches have some great tones and both the factory and user preset patches can be tweaked to your liking. I have a very nice all tube expensive rack rig. Still I find this V Amp Pro VERY useful and way beyond worth the money. |
| Playability and Feel:
| Very light! 2 space rack mount. If you wanted to travel light then the V Amp Pro, a light Power Amp and a 1x12 or 2x12 cab and you would be amazed at the variety of tones available. I use and have had no problems with the Behringer FCB 1010 MIDI Foot Controller. Makes changing patches/tones a one step process. |
| Tone:
| Amazing variety. Lots of amp models and effects. All tweakable to your liking. I am running this thru a two channel all tube power amp so that does not hurt I imagine. |
| Finish:
| Decent enough. |
| Action:
| It would be nice to have a "super" model of this with metal knobs and also a tube or two in the path for those persons not using a tube power amp. Also a more compact version of the Behringer FCB 1010 MIDI Foot Controller would be really great [one or no expression pedals] and a larger LCD display. |

| Quality:
| Excellent...especially considering the bargain price. |
| Reliability:
| I've used this unit for nearly two years in my home studio ( and in other studios as well) without a hitch. It's solidly built. |
| Overall:
| This unit will give you every sound you could need or want in the studio, at a fraction of the cost of a comparable Line 6, Roland, Boss, or Digitech product. I have only one issue...Behringer's FCB1010 Midi Controller does NOT work with this product. It doesn't work with the combo amp versions (LX1/LX210) either. Bad move, Uli! That would have made all 3 products unstoppable. Bummer! |
| Playability and Feel:
| Responsive, tweakable, intuitive...no brainer! |
| Tone:
| Any tone you need, you'll find here. A monkey could figure it out! |
| Finish:
| I happen to like the blue finish...others may not. Are you going to LOOK at it, or LISTEN to it? |
| Action:
| Everything works as designed...except for that midi controller issue. |
| Skill Level:
| Semi-Pro |
| Do you own this product?:
| Yes. And I don't plan to part with it any time soon! |
