hello guys, I'm new to the forums, I frequent the rig-talk (most of the time) and Harmony-Central forums by the same moniker.
I currently own two amps, a Diezel Vh4 which I love and a Duesentrieb Little Joe, that's my custom made baby. I'm not looking to replace my amps, nor mimic them. I'm getting an Axe Fx Standard mainly for two reasons..... as most of the people here I like the idea of playing A LOT of dif. amps (versatility) and for recording.
I'm currently recording my debut solo album, and sometimes I cannot crank my tube amps, specially at night when I like to record a lot. The Axe will solve this I guess.
Now, for now, I'll get the Axe alone and record direct, and use the VH4 Poweramp to get that nice tube power sound, but I want to rack this baby and get a poweramp for it so it can be a rig by itself. I'll use it as my FX processor if I'm playing my VH4/Little Joe, but it can also serve as a backup rig if the amp fails, like it did a couple of days ago, when it blew two tubes.
Poweramps...... I want something "small" and not that heavy..... I've heard the VHT is very heavy and big, also I don't really want to spend much money honestly I already have a very expensive amp, and the Axe Fx ain't cheap either, so I just want a poweramp that'll let me play the axe through a cab instead of power monitors and/or FOH (I don't trust the P.A. and/or Engineers working at some clubs)
what are the poweramps out there ppl currently use with their axe?, If I rack the axe, how many rack spaces would I need? 1 for the foruman power conditioner, two for the axe and two for a poweramp? or just one for a poweramp?
