Tech 21 SansAmp FlyRigPL1 Paul Landers

I tried the pedal directly on PA, in return of my amp and with headphones.
At the time I use it for rehearsal in return of my amp, combined with NS Boss. Used in this way is a little bit noisy. In fact is designed to be used directly in PA and no NS needed. Soundwise, is KILLER!!! Can be tweeked very easy from clasic rock sounds to metal.
I like both channels, with their features.
I fully recommend you to try.
I made the right choice when I decided to buy.
Is what you need for a good sound. I managed to fit in the mix, easily.
Pros: perfect choice if you want fast setup for concerts, if need a lightweight rig without compromising the sound, back up for your gear, to practice late night with headphones,
"Cons": I wish to had a chorus inside :)

I love PL1 Fly Rig! Ive got also Line6 Helix, but PL1 is much better in direct solutions (PA/speakers/headphones). Helix sounds good, but its really hard to get sound wich works perfect in home and in the band context (for ex. ive got 5 clones of this same presets, each one with totally another eq freqs)... with PL1 this all diffuculties just gone! It sounds perfect with this same settings and it doesnt matter that you are plugged in mixer, PA or headphones! Zero latency and cool ambient knob - this things make me fell like im playing real tube amplifier! It's impossible to get same result with Helix or high quality VSTs.

Now im playing in the band only with guitar, cable, PL1... and thats it! My band mates absolutely love my current guitar sound. With PL1 buying i made best decision that i could!

Important!: DONT LISTEN TO YOUTUBE SNIPPETS! It sound a way way way way better in real! On some YT snippets PL1 sounds plastic-like and the reason is that this guys set level knob to some about 10%. If you turn level to about 12 o'clock you will get huge sound with fantastic balanced midranges.
