VOX VFS5 VT-Series 5-Button Footswitch

For $65 or so, this unit gives you freedom to change patches while standing at the mic or sitting on a stool. It's tough and simple. You can switch between two banks of 4 patches each. Comes with the patch cord. Self-powered. I wish it had the A/B toggle option to stay on one button for 2 patches, but you have to stomp every button individually every time, so set it up to have your most used patches grouped close together. Works great, makes no noise whatsoever when switching sounds.

If you have a VOX VT Series Valvetronix amp, this is a must buy (unless you preffer using your own pedals instead of the amp's built-in effects and sounds). It's amazing, works perfectly. You can control all your 8 saved banks (when the amp os set at "bank mode"), in "manual mode", you can turn "reverb" and effects on and off and use the "tap-tempo" function, for exemple, of the "delay" or "tape echo" effect. The only downside is that you can't switch between the "preset mode", "manual mode" and "bank mode" through the footswitch, so you have to do it manually in the amp itself. But you can get through it. Maybe it's a little bit expensive, but it's worth every penny!

Simple device with durable construction, nothing to complain about, its just a heavy switch

I have a Vox vt40+ and I must say this is a must, if you are just playing by yourself or use your amp for recording maybe you won't need one of these, but if you are rehearsing or playing live you are going to love this. Very well constructed, looks like it can take a beat, and if you are playing live, you know you need something reliable, there are always "accidents" You can switch through your 4 channels and your red and green bank, so you can actually have 8 sounds ready for you under your feet. Now, that's all it does, it's a footswitch, you can't control anything else. Some people complain "why can't it do this or that" it's because it's design to be a footswitch not a pedalboard. The cable is long enough.

I bought this to use with my Vox VT40x, which I'll use for home use and small-ish gigs. The amp works great for this application but to get the most out of it for a live gig I really needed this pedal. I gave it four stars - I probably would have given it 3-1/2 if I could have. I'll tell you why - but first, the good stuff. The pedal is very sturdy. It works just as it should, and is pretty much plug-n-play. It enables me to choose from four main sounds and a second bank of four alternates. Switching banks is easy but I find I only really need to have the special effects in bank 2. On to the slight criticism...the tradeoff for this thing being sturdy is that it's big and bulky; heavier than I'd hoped. Also - and this is the main reason I did not rate this higher - there are no LEDs for the individual channel footswitches. It would have been great to be able to know what channel you're on without looking at the amp. Finally, and this one would have been nice to have - you cannot tap tempo from the footswitch or trigger the tuner. That would have been killer. Still - a good pedal that works just fine for what it is.

I’ve had a Vox VT40x for about 5 years now, and this switch really opened up its usefulness. Not only does it give you access to instantly switching your 8 user preset channels, it also allows you to toggle your 3 effect channels on both the user presets and the built in presets. The interface is not always the most intuitive, so make you sure you go to the Vox website and read the manual, which is not included.

The switch board I received in the mail was nonfuctioning, more or less a dud. I plugged it into the back of my amp like the instructions stated and turned the amp on, but nothing worked on it.

Love the switch. A must have for the Vox modeling amp

Ordered this item for a Korg rhythm machine that I purchased locally. Solid piece of kit and obviously built for road use. Worked without any issues and was just plug and play. One small thing though; the connecting wire is way too long! I guess it was designed for guitar players standing a distance from their amps etc.. but as a system pedal for my drum machine, I will have to open the unit up and shorten the wire which is approx. 15' in length.

Essential accessory for your vox amp

VOXの最新ValvetronixのXシリーズ、 VT20Xを手に入れてサウンドの切り替えを行う際に、 足で操作出来るペダルの必要性を強く感じ、 ほぼ同時に購入して手に入れました。 実際に使用したところこのシリーズ専用と言っても、 過言ではないほどに操作性がとても素晴らしく、 アンプ本体にある切り替えのスイッチ操作は このペダルですべて行う事が可能な上、 名称も全く同じなのでこのペダルとして、 完璧な相性を誇っております。 この最新のXシリーズの機能の許容範囲ですが、 いい意味で広すぎる事もあり個人的な見解ですが、 最新ValvetronixのVTXの必須アイテムだと思います！ ※2016年現在※

Perfekt!
