Re: How are the distortion effects ?

2001-12-29 by no_neo

In my short experience with the VF1 I don't think distortions are the 
strong point of this unit. I find it difficult to get a "modern 
distortion indie-rock" sound or a nice valve emulation or a warm fuzz 
tone. I'm working currently with a borrowed Big Muff which is fine 
and I'm going through a Crate Vintage50 valve amp.
But then again I'd love to know the opinions of more experienced 
users.

Thanx Tharbin for your previous answer. It helped my sound a little. 
I'll investigate more the patch issue thing.
