This could be a regular feature video series for you. "Leo Builds a Pedalboard". Pick a multibox, pick a couple of extra effects that would compliment the each other, put them in the Vangoa and show us what can be done with it.
Thank you!!! Yes, I do agree...it would be nice to build pedalboards...maybe specific pedalboards for each brand....like a NUX pedalboard or a Strymon one... Thank you!

@@egorshatalov9473 i would 100% use this live. i'd need to compare the AA to the Joyo American sound for a twin sound. I dont think one is better than the other just different.

I've never played any of the Soldanos/VH4/Dual recteifier etc in real life so have no idea. all the channel A amps sound great to me! and channel B, well, styrmon iridium doesnt do any high gain amps so this is half the price and the option is always there. Oh yes the IRs it came with are fine. I just already had the York Audio ones so just popped them in for the Twin and the JCM800.

@@LeoGibsonGtr Thanks Leo. Your original demos on it helped. And this video came at the right time as I have done the same thing with a small pedalboard. However, I couldnt find the phone app? Maybe its on iPhone only? is it an official NUX app?

@@LeoGibsonGtr I will have to share your videos to get those subscriber numbers up! Only to clarify, when I said, “you didn’t get this good… in your studio,” I meant, “you must have much experience outside your studio to play/record this well.” It makes me curious to know how you came to be the player you are today.
Hi Jacob, yes sure, please share the videos...it would help the channel! Sorry I didn't get your message right...😀...Yes, I played live / outside of the studio. Well, I think (maybe) that one of the thing that characterised me as a player, is that first of all I see myself more as a composer than a guitarist, and second that I have played in different styles for extensive periods of times...for instance I have studied classical guitar, I have played Jazz continuously for almost a decade, I have been into rock / pop guitar for a lot of years....These are the things that have for sure contributed to my playing style. Thank you so much for your interest in the channel and in my playing!!
Love the demo song! And the Vangoa seems to be a nice little pedalboard. It should be mentioned that the integrated power supply is fully isolated, so it helps to avoid electric ground noise.
10:26 or maybe run the delay / reverb into the effects loop of the Amp Academy and use its DI out for long cable runs. Would lose the STEREO signal though I'm guessing.
Am i wrong that It seems it's not so noisy with esternal overdrive /distortion? You built a great chanel! Edit: In the meanwhile i bought one and it works very well with external overdrive /distortion! The mobile app also works great and is very usefull to change something on the fly. Great solution for an ampless pedalboard.
Hi, it is perfectly fine to record the Academy via USB, but in the pedalboard I'm using in the video there are effects placed after the academy, therefore I was obliged to record using the analog I O. Thanks!
Ciao Leo. Il mese scorso ho preso l'Amp Academy, complice una buona opportunità sull'usato, insieme ad un Cerberus, sempre usato. Ho provato l'Academy sia in combinazione con il Cerberus, sia con alcuni pedali che giacevano in garage (Nova Drive e Zoom Cdr). L'amp Academy mi è sembrato interessante e ben suonante, ma ho faticato a digerire un paio di cose: software acerbo, la DI out ha un'uscita troppo "hot" anche al minimo, per usare l'xlr out si deve quasi azzerare il volume delle Ir sulle singole patches. Inoltre troppe cose sono demandate al software, tipo la scelta degli amp (per capirsi o Friedman o Jcm800) non attivabili dal pedale stesso, ed io sono un chitarrista.....vecchio!! In combinata con il Cerberus soffrivo invece la mancanza di un display, per capire dov'ero... Alla fine ho messo tutto in vendita, L'AA l'ho venduto subito, così i pedali. Il Cerberus non ancora, anche se ho qualche richiesta, al limite lo tengo come spare. Penso che andrò su un multieffetto all in one compatto, tipo Headrush Mx5 o Boss Gx100, almeno litigo con una macchina sola.....Tieni conto che ormai fuori non suono quasi più ed il poco che suono a casa devo avere un set up pratico. Buona musica!!!!

Dear Mr Leo...i just saw this video. My question is., how did u power up the NuX Amp Academy? From what i know, the Amp Academy requires at least 300 mA @ 9V but the built-in power supply of the Vangoa VPPD-S is 100 mA for each of the 8 9V outputs. So, how did u managed to power up the Amp Academy?
Hi, Vangona told me that it is important NOT to overcome the total amperes offered by the unit....but each single outlet can supply more than 100mA. Thank you!
Hi, I have asked Vangoa, and basically the pedalboard has 800mA in total, and each outlet can feed more than 100mA, but the total has not to overcome 800mA.

I'm happy you have solved the problem!!!
iOs version 2.2.1009, current latest version, does not work with iPhone. The app does not see the device, no matter what you do
Hi, thank you for sharing...I have to check it out...Are you using an iPhone or an iPad?
Thanks!
@@LeoGibsonGtr I use iPhone 11, iOs version 16.0
Hi Dmitry, are you sure that you are using a camera link and not only a USB C to Ligthing cable? it's kind of strange...if I remember it well, it worked with my iPhone 12 with iOs 16.1
@@LeoGibsonGtr Camera link? I connected my iPhone to usb c port via original usb-c lightning cable. Do I need to do something else?
Yes, as far as I know you need something like this: www.apple.com/it/shop/product/MD821ZM/A/adattatore-per-fotocamere-da-lightning-a-usb
Which is a camera adapter.
Thank you!
Where I can find the app for he amp academy For android.
Hi, I'm sorry but I use an iPhone, and I'm not sure how it works with Android. If someone knows, please drop a message here.
Thank you!
@@LeoGibsonGtr I think that they don't make an android app for amp academy. Maybe later. Thank you for the response and thanks a lot for all the reviews.
You are welcome! Thank you for sharing the info!
Latency please?
Hi, tha Amp Academy has 1.1 ms of latency, the Xotic basically 0, and the other two units are time pedals, therefore I don't think latency is an issue...but I have not tested.
Thank you!
Nice....thank you..😉
You are welcome!
