Hey,

Check out this new web site. http://www.valvetronix.net.

This guy put in a lot of work putting it together. The site is aimed for all people using Vox® Valvetronix sound modeling equipment:

AD15VT, AD30VT, AD50VT, AD100VT
AD60VT/VTX/VTH and AD120 VT/VTX/VTH
Tonelab and Tonelab SE

I believe it answers every ones desires. I think some of us with VOX equipment should contribute to make this site a successful and usable site by all VOX users.

But this forum will still remain "Home".

Hey that's a sweet site. I like how they did the flash modeling settings like they sorta do on the real Vox site. The sounds so far are pretty close to their descriptions. Well most of the sounds. Some of them are a little off.

I also notice how much better the AC30TB sounds with Chorus on one file I heard. You figure Brian had gobs of guitar tracks laid down and so the Chorus effect will help mimick that idea. God I love the sound of an AC30......

Looks like the makings of a good site. They need more patches though.
 
I just added a patch for my Tweed 4x10 blues setting. It's called Basic Blues. I l.o.v.e. that tone with my Fender's bridge humbucker.

Update! And now also my Basic Metal setting!

Marnold,

I went and looked at your “Basic Blues” tone using the Tweed 4X10 settings. I even printed out a copy for my library. How did you figure out the 500 ms for the reverb?

From reading the manual, either the Tap button is used or holding the Tap button while turning Edit 1 knob. But, where does the numerical value “500” come from?

Thanks

It's 500 ms? I really have no idea what it's set at. I just know I like the way it sounds like that. I'm not sure where you're getting the number 500 from. Since 500 ms = 1/2 second you could just hit the Tap button twice a second. It'd get you close enough.

Go to http://www.valvetronix.net.

Find “Basic Blues”.

Hit the friendly print button.

On the print out, look under the left side of the control panel .

Tap: 500 ms
Category: Blues
Information: Blaa Blaa Blaa!

Weird. I entered nothing via the tap setting when I entered the preset. Edit 1 is the same as Tap anyway. It's got the same thing for my Metal preset too. Just follow what the Edit settings are. Maybe it automatically computes the tap setting or it just has that as a default.
