    Hmm that's an idea, never done it, it being targeted towards keyboards.

    I have tried a few of the VKFX on a guitar DI - they sound pretty good actually.
    I was thinking of trying the overdrive - which I do not yet own - in the same fashion.

    Haven't tried that yet, but I will.
     
    Given that these are keyboard effects I really wish they would add a Leslie simulator to the bundle.  Good for both keyboards and guitar.

    Good post, one I was meant to ask but kept forgetting. With the HOLIDAY voucher was thinking of getting this but as I don't play too much keyboard, was going to look to see if others had used it on anything other than keyboard. May well give it a crack!
