I got my AD-10 today , this box deserves a spot on its own among all the other Vguitars ones
A quick review , it transforms the sound into something very acoustic yet with the option of reverb , delay , chorus , compressor  , looper, fx loop , 4 band eq , boost , 2 notchfilters with scanning and the main ingredient acoustic resonance + USB recording


Very intuitive UI , great sound , small , 2 inputs,  works great with passive piezo or transducer piezo,
( haven't tried active PUs yet )

I'll try to record something later this weekend if the drivers will install :)

Info about the fx loop that actually can be used as a extra line out.

(Exactly what is sent out from where in the chain I don't know , I can't test it at the moment.
A good guess would be : after boost , acoustic resonance and compression and before chorus, delay , reverb and looper.)


From Roland / Boss support

QuoteFX-loop sender hele tiden upåvirket af om den er tændt eller ikke.

(Du kan faktisk kun tænde og slukke FX-loop på selve FX-loop knappen, hvis både send og return sidder i.)
Translated from Danish

[The FX loop sends at all times unaffected by whether it is turned on or not.

(You can only turn on and off the FX loop on the FX loop button, if both send and return are in.)]

I'm hoping to feed SY-300 from the fx send

I will be posting some audio clips later this week of my new " Acoustic " SY-300 setup.



2 inputs from my doubleneck to AD-10 ( they have individual settings, gain and EQ
FX loop to SY-300 send and return , direct signal mixable.
Works really great.

The Acoustic sound and FX are great in AD-10

3 complaints so far.
Fx loop is in mono
Expression pedal as volume is set after delay and reverb
No midi in or out on AD-10 nor sysex as far as I know.
(So if I want the SY-300 in true stereo and not just the fx on AD-10
I have to work 2 pedals)
