Diezel VH4-2 pedal tones

Hi guys,
d'you have the 2-channel version of the VH4 pedal? Could you please tell me if it's capable of reproducing low gain/edge of breakup tones with the gain know as low as possible?

I'm looking for a 2-channel portable solution able to nail the VH4 tones but, since I also need lower/almost clean tones, I'd like to know if that's possible to get from this pedal somehow.

Thanks a lot

Old post, but maybe i can still help you. As many here im a big Tool fan and since i only own a small amp which can't reproduce my needs i wanted something heavier. Lots of time spent on Google and other forums and since the VH2/VH4 were just to expensive i went for a Marshall JVM205C + VH4-2 Pedal. I gave them 1 week to show me love, but they refused Amp and pedal are going back tomorrow as i'm within the return time. That's not really helpful at all, isn't it? On the JVM205C you have 3 possibilites to add a pedal but since the VH4-2 isn't just an ordinary distortion pedal, you can also use it as a preamp. To do so, i used the "To power amp" output of the VH4-2 pedal and went directly into the JVMs "Power amp in". And only in this configuration it almost sounded like i wanted but with the downside that i couldn't alternate between the Pedal and the Clean channel of the Marshall since the JVMs preamp is deactivated when it has a cable in the "Power amp in". The pedal did sound very different in the FX Loop and when put in the front guitar input - so no solution for me. Maybe i could have brought that stuff to work as intended but with the money i had to spend for that was just showing me the path for a VH2 or VH4 head which i'm looking at it at the moment.
