Which you can pretty much eliminate if you know how to program them.

in the 4 years I have used mine I have never needed to switch patches during songs. Nothing more than turning an effect on or off so the "delay" was never something that came into play.

I do have different patches setup for different basses, but again I don't switch basses during songs so your point is moot.

I wouldnt rush right into that. Behringer cabs arnt the greatest..

They are built solid, but use crappy (somewhat dead sounding) speakers and I have heard bad things about the horn tweeters. Mainly that the tweeter can only be on full or off completely, no in between settings.

Cant tell you anything about the power amp tho.

Anyways, I just suggest reading all the reviews first, focus on the ones written by people who have owned the gear for 6 months or more, cuz you won't hear the flaws from somebody who has only owned something for a day because they havn't owned that product long enough to have a problem.

Behringer has a bad reputation for their stuff becoming noisy, or breaking completely. Some of their products can be bad investments. some can be good, like the V-Amp. Im thinking of getting one myself.

OOOOH thank you very much

something pop-punk, possibly with a pick

....funky fingerstyle perhaps....

....perhaps some hard rock, with a lot of "Chuggy" metallic sound I suppose.

oh yea, and something with some overdrive would be nice

throughout my bass-playing lifetime, I haven't done so much with effects...perhaps because I've never really owned any fabulous effects. If it EQ's wonderfully, I'm totally sold on it. I still have the usb/midi cable I got for my Guitar V-amp2 ,so i can control it with my laptop (since my laptop is part of my rig, I'm just hightech like that ;D)

but I think my last question is, how is the color? Is it creme looking? I'm hoping it's olympic white
