I would certainly hop on the VG-88 thing if they had it in a rack. Part of that may be because I was listening for it knowing it was the vg-88 but it sounds quite quot plasticquot especially compared to other clips I've heard from him. I dunno- it's just it sounds so dry that I can just tell it's modelled. I've heard entire albums done with podxt that sound better The effects sound great and the models are pretty much on par (to my ears) with the VG series. I was actually looking very closely at the VG88, but with 5 guitars that I usually take to shows, outfitting them all with hex pickups could get pricey. I think Boss is doing great things with COSM technology. Not really amazing sounding by any stretch of the imagination.

I have too many controllers on the ground already. I have been using Roland COSM for a few years (GP-100 and now, the GT-Pro), and I would certainly hop on the VG-88 thing if they had it in a rack. The VG series is amazing, and i think the hex pickups needed to get many of the functions like individual string tuning actually scares people. All of the lead guitars are (gasp!) done with the VG-88. go here from : localhost//music.html and play the song PLAZA DE TOROS. I may do a demo specifically targeting the tonal capabilities of the VG-88, tho, when I have a couple of spare hours. Originally Posted by DeadSkinSlayer3Care to post some clips?

I'm using it to dial in a simple JCM800 style patch. If you use a guitar with a GK pickup, then you open up the whole other side of what the VG-88 can do: virtual acoustics, mandolins, 12 string guitars, hollow and semi hollow body guitars, dobros, and others await. Hook up a MIDI controller and you have an insane amount of control if you want. Setting up tones, effects chain and parameters, is a snap. The VG-88 never fails to amaze me! It's clean, dead quiet, and has some really great tones in there. For all these tracks I used the Roland VG-88 as a modeler - just taking my analog pickup (Gajic Hellchild in this case) and running through the COSM modeling. I've been tracking guitars this weekend for some new song demos, just very simple one guitar for the left amp one for the right stuff, minimalist drum mic'ing, etc etc. I have a Korg PXR-4 myself, and it's great for day to day use: sounds good, can take a lot of abuse, and all that. I know many of you use modelers such as the POD, Johnson, or Korg Pandora.
