I looked at the toneports but picked up a Lexicon Omega for 199 at GC due to MF price matching. GC wanted 300. So far I like the unit a lot.

I will have to figure out how to attach clips to this website. So far I made two CDs and sent one to a friend of mine in Washington state. Fairly sloppy and raw but has some nice parts in it. I still haven't figured out the program I'm using: Sony Acid. I like it, some people don't. The Omega came with Cubase le, but it has limited mp3s, twenty, things like that. You have to upgrade to get more.

I think I'll stay with Acid and buy some of the plug ins like the drum parts to songs, things like that.

Big Rob: I notice you have the v tone 2 x 60 amp. I have the v tone gm110 and like it a lot. I was wondering how you like your v tone? I thought about getting one. Lots of power and the analog modeling on mine is really nice. Never thought I'd buy a Behringer. Didn't think I'd buy a Fender either.

Anyway, that Omega is a real nice thing. Bar meters on the front, stereo, lots of inputs, 20 db pad button for condenser mics, external or usb power, lines out to my PA for monitoring and playback. I run my Digitech RP350 into it, switch on back for mixer or amp output. I think it does a good job. Just the learning curve on the Sony Acid is long. But it is fun to try to figure out. I bought another mic so I can sing and mic my amp at the same time. Try that out and see if it sounds better than the RP straight into the Omega.
