I had originally suggested a look at the Stealthplug because of it's extreme small size and the fact that it includes Amplitube 2 plus recording and eq'ing software. But for computer recording only.
But given the fact that the Valvetronix sounds are so good and you already know Vox quality, why not the Tonelab? The newer version is supposed to be great for recording, live use, everything.
There is a SE and the newer LE. I'm thinking on one or the other myself, but I don't know that the LE is such a greater bargain than the SE, aside from a few extra presets. IRS refund not that far off.... must .....wait.....GAS taking...control.....
