The AC15 model had a robust tone to it.not clean.just on the edge of break up. Z - now I get it! Now, I see that it's a lot like the original Supersonic.and it sounded brilliant. One preamp that was a standout was the Dr. Even the Fenders sounded nice but lacked that body like the 800.

Wow! The cleans are full bodied and have character, and when used with the Chandler Tube Driver just sounds fantastic.
What I wanted to find was one preamp that could be clean, and then use pedals to dirty it up.
It seems to me the purpose of the AC30 preamp was its overdrive tone.I guess Line 6 figured, when you have Fender cleans at your disposal. The output is so low, if you wish to keep a clean tone. I say "almost" because ironically, the Line 6 AC30 preamp was my least favorite. With AC30.almost all of the preamps were outstanding in one way or another. With the Valvetronix, my favorite preamps were the Bassman, the Park, and the 800. The switching between the Normal and TB channels meant adding more gear to the mix. It seems a bit shameful not to use the Vox's real preamps.but the problem there is you really need to crank an AC30 to get that tone! Truth is, I can't play that loud at home, or at practice.and stage volume would be too loud if I used the AC30 at "full speed".
What I decided to do was not use the 4CM but use the Vox simply as a backend, just like I was using the Valvetronix AD30VT before getting the Vox AC30. Or, you could resolve to use the normal channel only using boosts and OD pedals from the HD500 for gain tones. The HD500 can act as an AB switcher (two pan effects set to turn on and off alternately with a FS assignment, input B set to "same" into an FX Loop effect) but this blows up when you stick a mono effect before the FX Loop.or you could use a hardware box to do this.but it reduces the all-in-one solution of the HD500.

The HD500 into the AC30 sounds glorious! I'd say the biggest issue in using an AC30 in a 4CM is utilizing both the Normal and TB channel in a 4CM is how to go about selecting either channel. I can't respond to the OP, or others who replied so I thought I'd do it here. I was Googling "HD500 FX Loop Vox AC30CC" and came across this post in the old Line6 forum:
