nusko Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Hi, I am looking to buy a vox ac15c1 to use with my hd 500x. Will it sound good if i put the vox at a clean channel and use the hd 500x as a pre amp (wich is basicly using the vox for amplification only). I play lots of u2, gun n roses, queen and other stuff so in certain song, I would use the vox as my pre amp and the pod only for the effect. Sorry for my bad english my main language is french and I realy appreciate any help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarrellM5 Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 If I understand correctly, you would have to use the HD500X for effects only. It doesn't look like that Vox amp has an effects loop so there wouldn't be anyway to bypass the preamp and only use the power amp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thx for you answer.So if i plug my hd 500x in the normal channel of the amp and use my sweet child o mine patch from the pod what would happen because this is what i am doing at the moment but i have a fender mustang 1.

DarrellM5 Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 That should work fine. I would just make sure the patch didn't model an amp or cabinet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If i use amp sim on the patch and just put the vox at the cleanest tone possible wouldn't that work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarrellM5 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 It should a long as the channel is really clean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
