Perfect for home recording and domestic bliss

This box delivers a quality tone for home recording. I was close micing my 30-watt combo amp, but that was waking up the wife and kid. Now I am now recording direct with this and the tone quality is very comparable to the combo. I agree it would be great to pop new/different tubes in and out, but the tube tone and speaker emulator make up for that. Once you add a bit of studio reverb it sounds realistic. I especially love cranking up the first channel up to about 3 or 4 o'clock .. great for front pick up blues leads and really hammering jangle chords on a tele or strat.

AMAZING tone

i own two tube amps, a soldano and a marshall both of which are amazing so decided i didnt need this pedal anymore and sold it..... HUGE mistake... a friend told me immediately after to NEVER sell tone and damn was he right... i miss it dearly because it just plain sounds GOOD.... the three channels give so many options i used it for a crystal clean, a clean boost and a heavy dist. and once i joined a band with another guitarist i bumped up what i was using as a clean boost to a smooth overdrive and the third for its designed solo usage... honestly get this pedal it is expensive but it is worth it.. and once you get one NEVER SELL IT... also works well in front of your tube to alter the breakup a little... just get it....

where's the power switch and XLR out?

This thing sounds excellent. I've owned the Vox Tonelab and original Pod and have heard some others. This gets about 90-95% of a real tube amp sound. It's built like a tank, but for this much money though where is the on-off switch? Ditto for XLR out, after all it's for recording isn't it? That's a glaring omission IMO. Also no instructions for changing the tube. Other than that, I love it.

sounds great! the only critique I have is about the power supply it comes with. The adapter plug-in on the tubeman wont fit any 12 volt adapter other than the one supplied by H&K. So if you lose or break the adapter then youre screwed unless you can find another H&K adapter.
