Feature:
It is absolutely necessary to have the midi controller to access presets in live situations. The wah filter characteristics are too wide & make a bad wah sound. The volume pedal is great to control dynamics. I wish there was a 2x12 version of this thing. I can't for the life of me figure why Behringer did not do this. I want a portable, (read no 4x12 cab) setup. It could use just a bit more coverage power & 2x12 speakers to be perfection.

Quality:
I have been gigging this amp for 4 years running it at 2/3 to 3/4 volume. The only problem was a cmos battery that went dead (lost all the settings) It has been bulletproof, but i take care of it. The pots, (more accurately "encoders") have plastic shafts & will easily break so i built a 1/8" plywood cover. problem solved. It still looks & works like new.

Value:
Compared to the competition this was a no brainer. In all fairness I'm using the competitions modeling guitar, but for the amp I think It is the best value presently. The amp & controller are priced much less than the competition.

Desirability:
It looks nice, but i wish they would take the "ear" off their logo. Playing a Marshall is like driving a corvette, but then playing this V-Ampire sounds way more like the cover material we are trying to create. Forget about status symbols & be concerned with the way it sounds. This is so well done I believe all the amp companies will have an offering similar to it in short order. It is the future..now.

Sound:
The V-ampire is an Excellent value. I have used it gigging for the last 4 years. It takes a LONG time to get this thing where it is at, but it is worth it. Some of what I have learned, Run it in L2, turn off the cab models. The software to set it up is a must. Within the software it is easy to manipulate the drive,noise gate etc. which is almost impossible without it. Almost any sound can be emulated. It is powerful on its own. Last gig, the other guitarist told me I was too loud. He plays a tsl 100 & the bassist uses an SVT. The clean sounds are weaker than the overdriven ones but can be suppliented with the compressor. If the job is larger than about 200 people it needs to be miced. I do not like the way the direct outs sound live through the PA.although they are not bad for recording.

Ease of Use:
This is a digital modeling amp & the learning curve was long, but if one cares to take the time by reading the manual a few times, go to user groups and spend a lot of time with it, it will be worth the effort. I have about 8 amps that are heavy, one trick ponies that require all kinds of outboard stuff to get a palate of tones. This is one 48 Lb self contained unit that does it all. At $250 I dont know how they do it.

Support:
I needed a firmware update for the foot controller FCB1010 to make it work properly. Behringer was friendly & fast with a new chip & it has worked flawlessly since. How often does that happen any more.

Overall:
I cant find anything else quite like it for the $..... I keep looking at the website for the 2x12 150 watt version of this. If it disappeared, I would buy another immediately. If they could put a bit more volume in the clean models it would be welcome.

Feature:
Each bank has 5 pre-sets available, and you can create your own amp and sound for each amp in each bank and the foot pedal will allow you to move from one pre-set to another within each bank of amp selections. If this amp had the FX effects that are in the GMX amps it would be even more KILLER! The onboard effects are not that good, but not that bad; you have to spend the time to tweak each amp and effect selected.

Quality:
This is the second Behringer I have owned. I found a few loose screws on the outside of this amp. The plastic knobs stand out farther than the ones did on the GMX210 I previously owned,so one would need to be careful when moving this thing around, but most people I know who have invested in an amp treat them like a lady.

Value:
For the money, you will not find an amp anywhere near this one for the same money.

Desirability:
This is a really cool looking amp, all those red LEDs glowing against all that black. Really cool.

Sound:
The sounds this amp is able to produce unbelieveable. With 32 amp choices it is impossible not to find the sound you want. The VOX sound requires a lot of tweaking. If you do not take the time to read the instructions several times and mark the places for easy reference that pretain to various aspects of configuring each amp you only make it harder to do.

Ease of Use:
If you want to get a good sound from this amp you are going to have to read the instructions and actually spend the time required to tweak each of the setting associated with each amp you select in a bank. I X-ed out everything in the instruction manuel that did not pretain to the LX112 so I did not waste time while reading and adjusting my amp selection. I have tweaked and re-tweaked the 95 amp selections several times so that I have exactly what I want. Another important thing; I created a document in word processor making five cap "O"s across the page and then copied it all the way down the page in banks of 5; and then I printed it out and used it to draw in each amp selection and the exact setting for Gain, Vol, Bass, Mid, Treble, and then at the end I put what effect I chose and the setting of each of them. This way I know exactly what each bank contains, and exactly what each setting is.

Support:
I have had no trouble at all in communicating with Behringer. If I run into a tech problem I send them an email and they answer my question within 3 days. You actually create your own identity with Behringer and you go to their website to view all emails you may have sent them and their response to each of them. My GMX210 developed a bad rumble inside the cabinet about a year after I first purchased it at Zzounds; I sent off an email to Behringer informing them of the situation. After a couple of exchanges they refered me to their Replacement Warranty Dept and I packed it up and sent it off. It took longer to ship my new amp than usual because of the end of the year inventory, so I got a phone call from someone in the RW office and they offered me an up-grade, so after looking at what was available I chose the LX112.

Overall:
I have everything I need right here. It would be nice if it had the 99 FX effects that the GMX V-Tone products have, but good grief, with 32 amps and the ability to set the Gain, the Drive, the Presence, the Volumn, the Bass, the Mid, and the Treble on each amp, I am fully satisfied with what I have. If you do not take the time to tweak each amp, and make a chart of each setting for each amp, and what amp is in each bank you will make a lot more work for yourself

Feature:
This thing came with a foot switch that allows you to switch up and down within a bank of 5 amp settings. It is useful.

Quality:
I love this amp. It looks cool. I think that care needs to be taken if you had to move the amp around a lot as the knobs stick out about 9/16 of an inch. My amp sounds just as good if not better today than when I first got it over a year ago. I never move it, it just sits and looks purdy, so it looks like it just came out of the box.

Value:
For the sound I get and the 32 amps THIS IS A STEAL!!!!

Desirability:
To me this is a great looking amp, solid black and all those red lights. It is just a really cool looking amp, whether it is on or turned off, it just plain old looks cool.

Sound:
The sound of this amp is great. I only use this amp at my house but my neighbors 3 houses down say they can hear me playing and I have never set the volumn over half way up. I do have the Drive set to 1 on every amp setting. I think the effects are much better on the Behringer GMX 210.

Ease of Use:
If you spend the time to tweak each amp you can get great sounds. I have had mine for over a year and I have finally tweaked 22 banks of amp sounds just the way I want them. Having had this amp for this lone I have done a lot of changing on the sound and effect of each amp and finally have shaped each amp sound just the way I want it to sound. I left the last 3 at the factory setting as they have some really cool double effect sounds. Changing the sound is very simple, but the varity of nuances you can get for any amp you select is limited only to how much time you want to spend dialing in till you get that golden sound.

Support:
I have had some dealings with Behringer reps and I find them courtious and very very friendly. When I had a problem and had to contact them, I told them right off how much I liked my amp, gave a few details and asked them for their help and I got it immediately.

Overall:
This amp is all I need. It has all the amps I want, so I get all the sounds I want, and it is plenty loud, and clear. I love this amp and should it be lost I would get another one just like it. I do wish this thing had the effects package in it that is in the GMX 210, 99 editable effects. The combining of them with the 32 amps in the LX112 would be my dream amp.

Feature:
im giving these all 10s to make up for the dumfuks... otherwize i would rate it a 28

Sound:
Your not going to find an amp like it. I bought this amp and have had it for about 5 months now. I just read these reviews, and have to say some of these people are retarded. The one intitled "laughing" ... talk about one ignorent sob. My friend has a marshal 80w and this amp blows it out of the water without a doute. The sounds this thing can produce are endless. The volume is no issue. I have a set of drums as well and its no where neer drowning out the guitar even at half volume. Just wanted to inform anyone that is thinking about buying an amp that you WILL DEFFINITLY NOT be disapointed AT ALL. KEEP ON ROCKING.. and dont let these idiots make u think 'maybe this isent such a good idea'... it maybe a possablitly that they are actuly def?

Feature:
I wouldent know where to begin. Too many features maybe a down side? not for me tho...:D

Quality:
Seems to be good nobs maybe a litle flimsy but as long as your not breaking guitars over it or somthing it should standup to what u can dishout.

Value:
Value is the best thing about this amp.

Desirability:
I would very much like to make love to it if it ran off 1" inputs hahaha

Sound:
Its not uber loud but it sounds very nice.

Support:
I donno? 1 year warentee thats good right?

Overall:
Wow, I just bought one thinking it would be a nice practice amp, but damn I dident think it would be so good. The Sound is beautiful even when its so loud that you vibrating off your seat lol. The effects are amazing people say the wah wah sounds cheasy, i dont know what they are talking about, it sounds great, maybe not your normal wah wah but its nice. If you got the cash, or are even planing on spending 500, dont waste your money this is the amp man. this is it. lol. You wont be disapointed

Sound:
A lot of 'Bang for the Buck'! This amp by itself with the 1-12" Jensen didn't sound that great to me at first until I plugged in another 12" 8 ohm cabinet and 'Man' did this thing open up. It got 3 times as loud and produces a great stereo spread on many of the presets. For $299 you can't go wrong but remember to get another 12" 8 ohm cabinet to go with it.

Feature:
No doubt, features stand high and tall,

Quality:
Its f'ing tuff. And you will be too after carrying this beast. lol.

Value:
Unbelievable how cheap this head is. I was using a marshall head and that didnt stand a chance against this head.

Desirability:
Average looking, but 9 bc the digital lights are what give it its look at night. As long as behringer keeps producing like this I will be standing by their side.

Sound:
Well, everyone has their own opinion, bc every1 has their own style of playing, I use this HEAD, not this actual amp lol.. running on 2 4x12 cabs, take a listen to just one sound type you can use out of many at www.myspace.com/huntinggroundband. If your looking for the best sound in "my opinion" would have the head set to L1 "Live 1".

Ease of Use:
Heres for my under 10 rating, the footswitch is a big issue. There is WAY to much of a delay between switching. Unless you buy the effects board also this might become an issue. Although I prefer as close to a raw sound than tons of effects so thats why it isnt much of an issue 4 me.

Support:
bc I havent needed it in over 2 years of having this head.

Overall:
I would simply replace it, knowing I own the pedal board by them also.

Feature:
Great features.

Quality:
Seems very sturdy

Value:
$300 bucks! Comon..

Desirability:
Cool Amp

Sound:
Not very loud vs Fender, Marshal

Support:
Great web site!

Overall:
Is a great practice / studio amp. Super for the money.

Feature:
the feature that i use the most is the compressor and the auto wha as for the amp sim. i use fozz box and modern gain

Quality:
i dont know ifit was damaged in shiping or at the factory

Value:
i have some regrets but i like it

Desirability:
i think its just a average amp

Sound:
i like the fact that you have so many effects but i cant use any of my other multi effectes pedals without gitting monster feed back and some of the diffrent channels are imposible to git there volume to match but other than those draw backs its not a bad amp(good distorion)

Support:
i had to send back my first one because of damages and they didnt give me any problems

Overall:
the amp has so many effects and diffrent sounds i think i will be f***ing with it for awile
