«  particular amp »

Value For Money : Excellent
Two opinions: one very good and very bad, I'll try to give that will ;-) 50:50.
This is the simulation reproduce all kinds of sense amplifiers known and famous, all kinds of speakers, effects, microphones ....
The connection is ultra complete, more than enough power, but it is also possible to switch to half power, and lower the master, so to play at home. Also note the presence of a headphone jack.
The adjustment possibilities are legion, which is both an advantage and a disadvantage: it is far from "plug 'n play".
The huge bottom bracket allows you to access all the features you can get on stage and through a single cable: it's great (but it is optional and expensive, for that I will stoop down the note).
Contrary to what I read, the finish is very correct, everything is well put together, not untimely vibration even at high volume. However, the knobs are a bit "cheap".

UTILIZATION

The manual is clear, simple but well detailed, however it is quite complex to build a sound valid. It is essential to know the sound that research, because if one has to go at random, we will quickly find themselves facing a wall, especially as each parameter is rather effective.
If you like the single channel amp, do not buy a Vetta. But if you grind sound like is the amp for you.

SOUNDS

I did that for about two months, and am far from having made the tour. However, I have prepared some basic sounds that allow me to perform in a group. We can, I think, get all the sounds possible, provided not just to review the sounds "factory", saying "it's me ...".
In the group, we are two guitarists in addition to the bassist, drummer and keyboard, and violin, and repeat, do not worry to get out of the mix. I took this amp to be able to leave the bar without heavy artillery (head, effects rack, 2x12, pedals, cables, transformers ... an hour of installation). Once I have tested in concert situations, I will publish, but I do not see why it would pass in rehearsal and not in concert.

We play Hard pulling on the metal, and I use most often guitars with active pickups. It also sounds better with certain guitars than others.

OVERALL OPINION

As said before, I did that for two months, and I will state my opinion in a few weeks, especially after public benefits.
I tried've owned many amps (I have two "All Tube" very powerful with big speakers, very bulky ...), and it is really a special case, it has nothing to do with everything I had or I still have.
I love his side "Swiss knife", while one, not so heavy as that, much less bulky than my other configurations and above that can be installed in minutes.
I do not like the (too) many adjustment options, but if we lose because a little time to find the sound, it is recovered then arrived on stage.
Value for money very good in Cygnus.
My conclusion would be that it is very good illusion (yes, we talk about simulation), and that, properly adjusted, it may well do its job in any groupe.Je do not know if I would do this choice, because I like change, but it's a good amp.
