Anybody tried the Vox Stomplab?

Evening all.

Does anyone have any hands on experience with the Vox Stomplab pedals yet? They seem very cheap for what they claim on paper - too good to be true or genuine bargain?

It looks like they are an updated/repackaged Korg AX1 series, but [u][b]if [/b][/u]they do contain the same sounds as the tonelab series then they should be better than the AX1s.

I hadn't twigged Vox and Korg were part of the same company. That's quite reassuring - Korg know their digital onions as it were. They've certainly been doing it long enough to figure out how to avoid "tone suck". Now, if only a shop within 50 miles of me had one to try...

I have just bought one, to be honest for the price I cant fault it! Straightforward to create your own tones with 20 available user presets.

It is a surprisingly small unit, but thats what i was looking for anyway, something to pop into my gigbag or guitarcase. One of the reasons I bought it was because I have the vox amplug for bass and I really liked that tone and thought for the price, i might as well give it a go.

I sold my GT10B to downsize and i wasnt using the unit to its full potential. After looking around for a cheaper and smaller alternative, this was my choice.

Soundwise, it doesnt muddy my sound at all, even with the valve amp sims it keeps a clear crisp sound. The effects are pretty good, especially the fuzz, flanger and chorus, decent sounding synth too.. all in all a brilliant piece of kit for £69!
I may try and do a video demo of it as there is nothing on youtube yet.

There is no point in using the Stomplab along with a Amplug. The Stomplab runs on batteries, and you just connect your guitar and headphones and you're ready to go! It's like an Amplug with effects.
