Thanks Khazul!

I wanna be quick to say though, these were really nothing compared to what you can achieve when you program sounds (on a chosen synth/noise maker) together with the AMP sims on this thing. I spent a good few hours after recording this little demo doing exactly that and I am really, REALLY impressed with it. For amp sims it's amazing!

As it really reacts to volume levels (maybe you could tell with the last 3 or so sounds on this demo) you can program sounds to really react well depending on how loud you play them (very different to any other amp sim I've played with).

Also I spent time today programming the SE70 and VF1 to fit along side (or be routed through it) and fuck me it was great. Using something like this for the amp sims (and maybe a little OD) and then using the 100% digital stuff for everything else is a very nice combo. Although some nice old school pedals running into this thing has to be tried (unfortunately not by me at the moment as I don't have any).

As far as the amp sims go on the V-Synth, I have to say I don't use them that often for a couple of reasons:
1. My VF1 and SE70 combo seems to beat it most of the time.
2. I usually use all the COSM sections of the V-Synth to build filters, or compress. Please add some more filters Roland!!

Anyway for the money I do really like this thing.

Two thumbs up!
