You can adjust the volume for the mic input and also apply delay/reverb effects to the input signal. Also, you can select the VOCODER amp model for a talking modulation effect that sounds as if you’re playing a talking guitar. The amp also features an AUX IN jack for your music player or another external sound source, which gives you three simultaneous input channels including the signals from your guitar and mic. Further, this amp has a built-in cabinet simulator, which you can hear through the PHONES jack. This cab sim adds the characteristics of a guitar amp cab to the output signal just before it reaches the power amp. This is perfect when recording to an audio recorder or when practising with headphones. | Built-in looper functionality (Vox Mini Go 10/50)The looper on the VMG10 & 50 amps lets you loop the playback of phrases you record with your guitar or mic and then play along for a jam session, or overdub again and again in real-time performance. When using the looper along with the rhythm machine and then recording while the rhythm pattern plays, the length of the loop when you stop recording is adjusted (quantized) to match the length of the measure. Also, when you play a rhythm pattern while the looper is playing, the tempo of the rhythm is automatically set to match the loop’s length. Use the optional VFS3 (sold separately) to freely mix the three loop modes while you play. |

Purchased this as a travel amp when I go on vacation. Got a super deal on it from Amazon which was selling it at around $100- about half the typical selling price. I usually play through a Fender tube amp and quite frankly, there is no way this little digital amp can compare to the Fender, But, for the purpose which I punched it, it fills the bill. With a modeling amp like thi, I normally play with a clean amp sound which this amp provides two model selections. The volume is adequate (at max volume) for either of these selections but not very loud, unless you really crank up the Gain. Most of the other model amp selections are somewhat louder. A nice feature with the amp selections is a Line option, which works great for an electric/acoustic guitar. The amp effects take a lot of fiddling around to get dialed in the way I like. The amp also has a drum rhythm feature. I previously had Roland Micro cube which, I feel, is a better and louder amp despite the fact that they are both rated at 3w.
Vraiment un ampli super, surtout pour les guitaristes solitaires, le top pour perfectionner le jeu en rythmes, jouer en mesure il y a un mtronome, il y a un bote rythme largement suffisante pour se faire plaisir et mme jouer devant un auditoire ( rue ou petite salle).
Pour l’alimentation; cble secteur fourni, il faut vous procurer une petite batterie recharge usb qui n’est pas fourni avec. Voir infos sur la page. Et franchement a fait le taf. Je joue dessus avec une guitare lectrique Yamaha 311 . le pied.
People are missing out if they don’t use this amp. So many features – microphone, looper, models, & drums! I put a battery on the side (velcro). I use this amp constantly.
Controls are easy. Volume is very nice. Models I like.
great little amp plus battery capable many types of custom sounds. Excellent buy A+++++
The amplifier is perfect for what I want: outdoor use. It has with separate inputs for guitar and microphone. Plenty of power to produce enough decibels for a small gathering outdoors, street busking and the like. Built in effects for reverb that can be separately set for guitar and microphone. Can be powered by a mobile battery that produces 5volts and a minimum of 1.5 amps. I bought Portable Phone Charger with Built in Cables,VRURC 20000mAh USB C Power Bank,5V 3A Fast Charging Battery Charger,5 Output 2 Input LED Display External Battery Pack Compatible with iPhone,Samsung,Tablet to power it outdoors and it works fine with VOX mini GO 50 too.
Easy to use – great leaning toll for playing with drums. Effects sound great too!
So when I saw that this amp had a looper built in I wanted to try. And it works great. It also has a drum machine which can be synchronised with the looper track which is a huge help.
I subsequently bought the foot pedal to control the looper which works fantastic.
Overall I am extremely pleased with the amp.
Only issue which is really really annoying is that the looper only runs for 45 seconds which is not enough for a track. It’s ok for a quick riff but not for a track. The TC electronics runs a loop for 5 minutes which is more than enough. But 45 seconds is simply too short and it is a real shame as I imagine it is simply a question on RAM somewhere in the electronics inside. Would be great if it could be upgraded with a larger capacity.
Three position switch makes it easy to adjust volume – so as not to overwhelm unamplified singers/piano during practice. Compelling reason I chose it was to be able to power it from external jump start/ mobile battery charger into its USB-C socket.
