First thing I would do is ditch the HX One.

And Transistor Tape.

+ having any other HX effect I want in front of the amp.

Has anyone been able to power it from a their pedalboard psu yet? Just wanted to see if it needs the 1.3amps I saw it listed with. If it does then a Cioks Dc7 should power it I think.

Yes, I’m powering it with the Eventide PowerMax no problem, which is a rebranded Cioks 7. Using the doubler cable.

Perfect. I've been shopping for power supplies and was thinking the cioks might be the one. Good to know it'll handle the VP4 when I get one in January.

Looks like 1320ma. 660 per output.

Anyone know how to erase the factory presets? I think I remember seeing it but now I can’t find it in the manual. Thanks!

Thanks, but no.

The HX is absolutely killing it in front, as a do-all, midi-controllable utility pedal.

So I’ve got the VP4 running four types of delays for my main gigging preset, sounds awesome:

1 Light DM2 for solos
2 Zephyr for wetter solos/texture
3 2290 with high mix + lots of mod for echo-y/trippy goodness
4 2290 with lighter mix + medium mod for delay/chorus on cleans

Also have a second preset going with 80s chorus + delay for Police/Cure covers.

The VP4 is a beast in this application!
