Vox VFS5 Footswitch

Versatile

Versatile footswitch for many effects

It works as it should, but a very long cable.

It works well enough.

The super long cable is... well in my opinion unnecessary and can get in your way. Other than that the quality is fine, switches seem good.

Must have unit

this was a great buy. it gives me control over my sound with 8 presets, without going to the amp. works a treat.

Perfect with VOX valvetronix

Wouldn't want anything more from a foot switch. Good quality!

Good add on for your amp.

Sturdy footswitch, switching not reliable

I bought this foot switch to be used with my Vox VT20. The foots switch is heavy and sturdy, and large enough for my feet. Features are also good, with multiple banks and 4 effects to choose from per bank. At the start I was really happy with it, using it for practice alone or with the band.

Basically, it works fine, but after a while I found the switching is simply not reliable enough for me. Apparently the connection to the VT20 works with different resistors for each of the 5 switches, and any contact resistance results in either the wrong effect to be enabled, or no switching at all. After a bit of contact spray things seem to work again, until you are in the middle of a song and it just refuses to switch from heavy distortion to clean sound...

It gave me too much frustration, therefore mine is not getting out of the cupboard anymore.

goede pedaal voor Vox AV versterker

geen klachten, alles werkt naar behoren

Does what it's supposed to, but not a necessity

To really get the most out of the VTX series I find that it's best to hook up your amp to a computer to really play with the configs in a more precise manner. Generally, I don't think the footswitch is necessary and I personally never use it.

But, if you want a footswitch for hopping between channels and configs this one does the trick perfectly. Not my cup of tea, but definitely not a bad product.

Great

Works flawless, just as I like it.

High quality

I took it with my VT40X amp. Sturdy construction and stable. I think it's a little bit overpriced for a simple footswitch but anyway.

Nice footswitch

I just wish the price would be lower. Works perfectly with VT40x.
