I just bought an HD300 (impulse buying hehe) from PP park square. Ok yung service and all, kaso di ko na test yung amp sims kasi walang aux in/ send return yung amplifier na pinapagamit nila for testing. But I still bought it anyway. I think the FX are decent. At least at par with my ex GT10. The distortions are...meh. Haven't really tweaked it yet though. The only thing that disappoints me with the HD300 is the lack of Amp Channel switching. Walang channel A or B yung mga amp models. Akala ko meron eh. Nalulungkot na tuloy ako dito sa unit ko. :(

Functionality di talaga pwede icompare hd300 sa gt10, if you want to get something na at par or greater sa gt10 eh get the hd500, but infairness sa hd300 mas ok para sa akin ang amp sim/models nya compared sa gt10, i've tested them both sa isang low-end amp using line-in then after direct sa mixer
Mas ok amp modeling ng hd300 esp on the heavier side.. Just my oppiniOn  :-)

ngayon ko lang nalaman. sa hd300 and 400 nakabracket pala ang effects like usual multi-effects unit.  fx1 = distortions, fx2 = modulations fx = 3 for delays, correct me if im wrong... unlike the 500, pwede kahit anung effects basta up to 8.  :wink:

ok sana yung behringer powered speaker.
but for me its kinda awkward looking na you play onstage na walang amp sa tabi mo dba.

so i found this one that solves the problem.
mejo pricey nga lang and wla pa ata available d2 pinas.
but it looks like a real amp minus the coloration of ur tones kasi flat response pa rin.hehe

Powerengine. It can be obtained thru Audiophile. Kung walang stocks, baka pwedeng special order. Another thing are Atomic Reactor amps.  :-)

Yes bro TOMO ka!! :lol: Kaya GASsables pa rin para sa akin yung HD300 and HD400 for simplicity!!! Kaasar lang yung HD300 walang dotted 8th note delay!! Or baka magkakaroon naman sa mga future firmware updates. :-D

I'm loving the amp sims. Medyo naaccept ko na na wala talagang channel switching yung hd300. Sayang lang din na walang 'boost' switch yung amp sims. Bibili pa tuloy ako ng booster pedal.

Pwede mo gawing booster pedal bro yung distortion pedals ng HD300 tapos yung gain ng amp sim yung gamitin mo pang distortion. Solve na solve yun!!! :-D

Tone boost lang pala yung tinutukoy ko. Yung volume boost feeling ko para magawa yun sa HD300 set nalang ng another patch na same settings pero masmalakas ng mga 3db.

TOMO!!! Nitry ko yun last time sa perfect pitch hindi ko matagpuan yung dotted 8th eh. Tapos nalaman ko wala pala talaga. Pero sa tingin ko sa mga next firmware updates magkakaroon ng dotted 8th ang HD300.

Ang best bro go for HD500!! Sa isang tapakan pwede ka mag-on ng 1-8 FX sabay2x!!!

Yeah. Gumawa ako ng ganyang patch. Yung Mesa model, + para EQ for the boost. Yung nga lang, wala kang clean mode. So kung may song ka na may Clean and Dirty parts,  mahirap na. Pero oks lang. I have an OS2. From your experiences, san ba maganda ikabit ang external distortion and boost pedal? Before or after?

Nakagawa ako ng volume booster. Mesa amp sim + Equalizer (in Post). Kelangan nasa post position yungbooster mo para magkaroon ng boost effect. Pag pre, walang volume change eh. Hassle lang magtimpla ng equalizer sa interface ng hd300

Pasensya bro malayo ako ngayon sa HD500 ko. Isang buwan ko siya hindi magagamit nasa probinsya ako eh. Hindi ko dala yun HD500.. :cry:

Kung external distortion bro, ikabit mo sa harap ng HD300. Kung volume boost pedal naman, sa likod ng HD300. :-D

Walang .8th delay? Sucks meeen. Big time. Oh how kewl .8th delays are.
HD300 = NO dotted 8th delay = SUCKS(for now)

pero

HD500 kahit walong cascaded delays na magkakaiba ng delay notes PWEDE!!! Hay miss ko na HD500 ko!!! :cry: :cry: :cry:

Feeling ko bro kaya wag ka lang magdual-amp. Pero ako usually dalawang cascaded delays lang. Isang echo na 8th note delay na super konting feedback lang tapos cascaded sa delay with mod na dotted 8th note delay na marami feedback. Ang result ayun busog na busog na galloping delays talaga!!
Buti pa kyo reunion na kyo ng HD500 mo. Kami baka late March pa. Ö
