That's funny... not exactly what you usually hear when someone's talking about amps... :ROTF::ROTF::ROTF:

I know it has a noise gate, but I've not noticed any cutoff. I will check this over the next few days...
I played with it last night, and yes I can hear the gating. It's not annoying by any means and it's a soft gate. It doesn't just clip the sound. If this were a big expensive tube amp, I would complain about it if there was no way to switch it off. But it's a practice amp and it's barely noticeable at practice volume levels. In fact I had to tell myself to listen for it on sustained notes to hear it at living room volume levels. I hadn't even noticed it before.

The Cube 30 and the Cube 60 are also great
The Cube 30 is footswitchable for channels and effects. The Cube 60 is absolutely good enough to gig with providing you mic it in a loud situation.
I used the Micro Cube tonight for the first time in our practice room, previously I've only used it in my apartment at low volume levels or through headhpones. I was already happy with this little practice amp, but man, I'm impressed with this tiny box tonight. The other guitarist has an older Line6 Flextone combo, I believe it's 60W in a 1x12 cab. I was using the recto and classic stack models on the Cube with a fair amount of gain, and I had no problem keeping up with the Flextone at practice volume... and the Cube vol was only at 40-50% most of the time! On freakin' batteries!!!
Sure, the tone on almost anything bigger is better than this tiny box, but damn it is amazing for what it is and for the price. As I said earlier in this post, the distortion is very nice.
