Do any of you feel strongly about having two Direct Out's? Also, the Rosette is the only amp that I've EVER seen that gives you the option of running the pre-mix or post-mix on the Direct Outs. Is that feature as cool or as useful as it seems?

If you are interfacing with a mixing board for live or recording it can be a signiciant advantage .. the idea is that you can have separate channels and tracks for each input channel, whether that be for different instruments or a dual pickup system... You can isolate each on the mixer...
As for pre/post eq... This allows you the ability to fine tune the tone of your instrument to the sound stage where you are listening and not effect what is being sent to the mixer...
Both of these features can be significant in for live and recording... I would not consider purchasing a system that did not have these features... Unless you knew you were not going to be sending direct signals to a mixer
BTW,this can mostly be accomplished with outboad direct boxes, however having this integrated makes for a very convenient and practical ssolution...
