                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[yeah, a jam along input would basically only work with a neutral poweramp, so tube amps (for guitar!) generally won't have one. And if you're playing with a 100W amp it seems kinda logic to assume your band has a PA system, which is perfect for amplifying. Besides, who jams along to a cd on a stage through a huge stack anyway? :D]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Look, an amp has different stages. To keep it simple, lets assume there are two: a pre-amp which shapes the sound and a poweramp which makes it audible. If you send a MP3/CD input into the Vox input the pre-amp would modify the sound. So you'd get an distorted/reverb song, or something else, depeding on yoru settings. Using the jam input of a MFX is only usefull if you amplify it relatively neutral. For example, connect the MFX-unit to a Hi-Fi set to amplify both the guitar and jamtrack.<br><br>And have fun with the 707. :D]]></content:encoded>

Arjen, You've really gone way over my head now (Not that it's hard to do :-))  What I was thinking about is something very simple:<br><CODE><i>
</i>           |-------------|            
Guitar ---&gt;|RP200        |            
           |             |--------&gt;VOX
  MP3  ---&gt;|(jam inp)    |            
 player    |-------------|            
                                      
</CODE>

- I would continue to use the VOX for the amp modeling<br>- I would either use the drums for practice from the RP200, or my MP3 player for Jam-along songs, but not both at the same time<br><br>Does this picture make sense?  Maybe you were thinking I want to do something more sophisticated? <br><br>(And in this case, my concern is whether I have any control over the relative volume of the drums or the jam-along-input wrt to the guitar volume? If not, then it may not be very usable; not that I want very fine control, but I would want to do things like make sure the guitar is louder than the drums, and the song is heard over the guitar if using the jam-along input)<br><br>In addition, as a bonus, I could:<br>a) Use the tuner in the RP200<br>b) Experiment with the effects in the RP200<br>c) Use the RP200 as a portable "practice-amp" with headphones. Now I have to be at the vox to plug in the head-phones, the RP200 would be more portable.<br><br>And, if I can get a used one for around $80 or so on e-bay, not too bad..<br><br>However, from various reviews here, it sounds like the RP200A does many things, but none too well.<br><br>- Modeling is better in the the VOX or the V-AMP 2<br>- Effects are better in zoom multi-effect pedals<br>- Drums are better in dedicated drum machines<br><br>etc.<br><br>So, I am still "Lost and confused".]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[You can't run an aux-in from the modeler into the Vox, since the amp model will be put over the backing/drums. You'll need an amp with a aux-in, which the vox doesn't have. I definitely won't suggest the G-dec as the sound quality of the Vox is, IMHO, miles beyond that of the Fender.<br><br>You could get a miniscule mixer board and put both the backings/drums and the Vox into it. either mic the Vox or use the line-out (you might want to look into a speaker sim). Adjust the volume of both signals and hook it up to your stereo. For drums you might be better of with a drumcomputer. The RP drums are nice, but if it's all you're after you'll be paying a lot for it.<br><br>Another option is getting a Tonelab and putting the backing into the Tonelab's aux-in. Then hook the tonelab into your HiFi set. A tad more expensive then the RP200 btu sounds infinitely better. Remember that the RP is really almost vintage in digital-land. Still need a drumcomputer with it though...]]></content:encoded>
