Valeton GP-5

Just leaving this here! Super compact and just £80 for a multifx, amp modeller and IR loader.

Yup. Crazy amount of tech for low dough. Also loads NAM (Neural Amp Modeler) files, which replaces the amp & cab modeling blocks.

Probably using serious data compression, but the guitar NAM captures sounded pretty respectable.

Would love to see a bass demo using 3rd party NAM from the Tone3000 library.

Here's an Anderton's review that goes in depth.

A first review on bass, looking at just the presets...

 

 

Maybe just a couple on there that I might be tempted to use e.g. 49 T-Wah, but I suspect the value-add, as with many multis is going to be from creating our own patches.

I mean for the price it’s worth it simply to use as an amp & cab modeler - you’ve got an insane amount of free open source NAM models/captures out there. From what I can gather you can run 9 fx blocks too making it more powerful than the Stomp (I’m not actually surprised, cos as great as it is, the technology is a decade behind). There is midi control too so you can presumably set it up so you can control those fx blocks via midi? I think this is a sign of things to come - over the next couple of years (or sooner!) the technology for all this stuff is going to fit on a tiny chip and it’s going to be able to be sold from manufacturers in China for buttons. I know you’re paying for all the R&D with something like the anagram but I think the days of paying a grand+ for modelers/digital rigs are coming to an end - the technology is going to be too good and too cheap elsewhere
