The backup for the amp thing can be nice, but other than that I have zero interest in amp modeling. My Bogner XTC is all I ever need.Just shouting into the vastness of the internet and didn’t read 46 pages. As a FAS Wh*re myself, I do not understand why someone wouldn’t just buy an FM3. Sorry if this was discussed for 20 pages and I’m late. The FM3 is only a few bucks more and just has more of everything. Plus it’ll serve as a great backup for your amp should you need it in a pinch.
For me the VP4 was much more appealing than the FM3. It's smaller and fits nicely on my board, can be powered with my board's power supply and has a simpler interface which is good for live use.
Because the device is designed for effects only, all the CPU power is used for that and it allows you to run more instances of the same block - you can run 2 Pitch blocks (virtual capo + dual detune, for example), 2 ultra-high reverbs, 4 multi-delays, 4 delay blocks, etc.
Even if the price was the same as the FM3 I'd still buy the VP4.
