UTILIZATION
This was my first "serious" amp from Line 6. I used it with a Mosvalve power amp into a Marshall 412 cabinet, and it sounded pretty good. The settings are easy to edit, store, and access, it's not too hard to dial a good tone, and it is super easy to go direct out for recording purposes. Great features all the way around. I like how each function has a knob, so no screen is required. The manual is required reading due to all the ways this box can be set up, but it's not too deep to just dive in and get some good tones out of it.
SOUND QUALITY
This sounds pretty good. Not fantastic, but pretty good.. It sounds a bit better live than recorded, although the sound isn't bad. Newer models of Line 6 products and other companies have made giant strides in improving the sound quality of modeled amps, so I can't give this one top marks in comparison to those units. The effects are decent - the verbs and delays are nice - and the amp models are useable. The Treadplate sound is the go-to distorted sound on this rack unit, and the clean settings are pretty good.
OVERALL OPINION
I'm giving this an 8 overall. I like how simple it is to dial in a working, usable tone, and also how easy it is to route for direct in recording or straight to a PA. This is a little Swiss Army box, and if you can find one for cheap and have some extra cash lying around, this would make an excellent back up preamp to any rack system, just in case your main pre blows up. Also, this would make just a good all-around processor for a budget studio. This is certainly worth it if it can be found under $150.
