since ive been prowling over money recently, and am in need of a new live rig setupm ive been scowering the internet for cheap ways to set up your live sound, so far, this is the best ive come up with

the VT for its boutiue cleans and amp models, and my blackheart set up and pedalboard for true tube tone, and an EHX switchblade between the two setups. (A/B switch)

what you think?

Cool! :)

I like the bio armour though. About the setup, it's over my head as I'm always using multi-fxs. From what I can see you a/b to two amps, one clean and one with fxs. Now you have a lead from the vox amp to the vox box, I don't know what that is.

the lead from the amp to the footswitch is jsut me illustrating that its using the footswitch =]

and yeah, my BH5h is giggable but its not clean, so i thought i could use the boutique clean and the FX to make some interesting clean presets, then use the A/B switch to go back to the FX chain and my BH5H for dirty/driven parts.

Now I recognize it, yea it's a foot controller.

I have two amps I play with but it's drums and me. I usually use my BH15/1x12 and my Fender Rumble 25 for drums. Sometimes I switched the amps because I like the sound of the 25 for my guitar. I know it's a bass amp but sounds good with a guitar. :)

hmm ive had a new idea.

i forgot about the valvestate head, its old obviously, and some of the pots cut out, but i ordered some electrical contact cleaner, i was thinking pull out the old VS head, clean up its pots (again) and get something like a floor pod for £100 to add some FX and amp models. and get a footswitch for the VS head.
