So i'm looking at picking up the Vox Tonelab modeler, as I move between electric violin, acoustic 12-string, and an archtop semiacoustic electric during a single show. If not patching straight into a FOH mixer, it'd go into a Fender Acoustisonicwhateverthehell junior twin, so I can use a single amp for all three instruments, but with their individual sounds (clean when I need it, warm and tubed when i need it).
I'll be honest, I hate every multieffects pedal i've sat down and played with. I haven't tried this one yet, but not only am I a great fan of Vox, but it's got a Tube which encourages me, and every review i've seen says this thing just rocks for the kind of noises I'm shooting to make.
I was going to use it primarily for amp modeling, sounding like an AC30. With the tube, i'm sure that alone will sound great (tho I'll check it out first). But how do the rest of the effects sound? Anyone tried this with the VC4 foot controller? Is the wah and delay worth a damn? Or would you prefer going Guitar -> Wah -> Echo (or whatever) -> ToneLab, so it serves only as a virtual amp/cab ?
Would appreciate any insight.
