    - GOOD POINT: even if the amp simulations are trsrussies, we can put all counters to zero back on the legendary tone of the amp (I did not want to have 50 amp simulations while I love the sound of my own!)
    So it is really a good point to create your own sounds FROM the original sound of the amp, just by adding a touch of a particular purpose.



    SOUND QUALITY

    The sound quality is up to its reputation, out of this world !!!
    Well above anything I've test including my old pedal, yet not bad at all (ZOOM G2.1u)
    The effects are almost all very soigns, it sounds very professional, nothing to do with its competitors: We are no longer in the same GRADE!
    I play a little amp Blackheart lamps with a Strat (Lace Sensor single coils), or an Epiphone Wilshire (PAF humbuckers), although both sound very diffrentes beautifully with this pedal.
    The effects are well doss, it's beautiful ... HOWEVER I regret just a little as 64 prsets, we stuck with a good 50aine distortions (admittedly very good) and very few clear sounds ... SNIF!
    I like clean sounds that hover and distortion crunch / blues, and one has a majority of distos hard / Mtal ...
    HAPPILY: after qqes minutes hacking one begins to find everything you want, and YOUPIIIIIIIIIIIIII !!!
    I put 9 because only with more clean sounds pr-enregistrs, I would have had more bases from which I would have said my personal sound.
    I have gained a little time, but it happens when even have the sounds you want, that's the main!


    NOTICE GLOBAL

    I use this pedal 8 months ago
    The sound quality is by far what I better test multi-effect, really beautiful.
    I possd ZOOM 4040, a Digitech a ZOOM G2 and quality ("extrieure and intrieure") is well above.
    160 Euros bought secondhand, it's a great deal. That said we can now find new less than 230 Euros and even that price was the worth the shot, if only for the hard life that seems long enough

    It is true that there are glitches in design ergonomics (qqes rglages avancs not easy to do without the manual), but forgets completely ds Premi re rating out of this magical little bote ...

    With experience, I would do this choice eyes closed, plugs in the ears and feet and fists reading!

    Multi-effects pedal.

    UTILIZATION

    SOUND QUALITY

    Many sounds without interest, as with many multi-effects, but you can create the 3 basic sounds: clean, crunch, big distortion.

    However, the machine is poorly suited to stage performance; So, for this purpose, I strongly advises.

    64 factory presets and 64 user EXPLOITABLE.

    UTILIZATION

    The config is very simple, especially since the manual is very well done).
    The setting is still accurate, efficient and sometimes requires subtlety, the parameters are still quite numerous.
    Everything happens with only 3 knobs editing (section / parameter / value), it is far from the headlock of some competitors: the grip is really intuitive!
    You can assign one or two parameters to the expression pedal, or else to a pedal and a knob to change preset (helpful during hacking sound)

    Be careful to change system patch: there is no concept of bank / preset, just 3 buttons Up, Down, and Recall. Think playing "prepare" the next preset in advance and press to change its recall.
    But in practice, it does not prove more difficult than juggling buttons to change bank and preset selection (IMHO).

    At construction: the Utopia is built like a tank, all metal.
    Pedal like a rock-solid. The 3 footswitches for switching patches are kind of rubber, small and flat, it is surprising but it is ultimately comfortable and less fragile than a basic inter plastoc.
    The display is quite small, but very readable white on blue.
    The editing knobs seem fragile, but are protected from inadvertent kick by a recess in the body of the beast.

    SOUND QUALITY

    So there ... I was on the ass! (But I think Raphhh has already said that lol)
    This little trick there, with three buttons and the pedal I was completely amazed!
    Live on the sound system (and stereo), the sound is monstrous: o)))

    The effects are small but excellent and really does not "puff" no sound, and the whammy wha are also excellent (the whammy is 4 in 1: pitch shifter, detune, and Octaver harmonizer).
    The Hush is devilishly effective: the channel Mega, a 10 gain can drop the guitar: no noise.

    The clean sounds (clean channel) are beautiful, transparent, the texture of the Air Norton I particularly like is respected.
    The British Channel is very good too, good hard-rock distortion of the heavy-metal.
    The distortion channel is just monstrous Mega, especially by using the Scoop which as its name suggests widening the mediums.
    I have not tested the channel from Texas to the factory presets, so no reviews yet ...
    The simulation of HP seems very good too (I have little experience, but given the results ...), with a lot of settings to change the sound reproduction (HP type, position the microphone , reactance ,...)

    Big plus for the factory presets are for every exploitable and often very good (long live the Recto-Fried!): Just a little down sometimes the effects and / or gain and that's it.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I was looking for a small multiFX / simulator that I can stroll around without a trainer and a rack 4 * 12 50 kg. I bought a little blind, have found little info and was not able to try it.
    I use it for two months, connected to anything and everything (PC, HiFi, PA) ... it sounds, it makes you want to play, it's a real treat!
    I play mostly prog-metal, I use an Ibanez RG7620 with DiMarzio Blaze rise and Air Norton and with my Swiss Cheese, I am extremely satisfied! (Actually, I do most of the rack is used almost lol)

    What I like in Utopia: "only" 4 channels and effects "basic" but all of excellent quality, rather than simulations approximate 50 amp that does not interest me and 312 cumulative packet of twelve that useless ...
    And a sytème editing simple and intuitive, rather than a gas plant.

    Weakness: The changing system type patch up / down will not suit everyone. I did some point before ordering and I realized finally that I do that six or seven different sounds, which is very manageable with this type of interface.

    Price / quality ratio, I think all the buried Utopia multi / simulators down to the edge of € 400/500. I would buy without hesitation (unless in the meantime a lot Rocktron "improved" version with a few more footswitch)
    In two words: it's solid, it is easy to use and it sounds that you ask for: o)

    Between an MP3 player and headphone output, two stereo audio jack that offers a lot of interresting possibility (pan effects etc. ..).
    The bottom is but it's true that there is no possibility of mass-level connections.

    UTILIZATION

    Everything is easy to use, it is simply in spite trs e fact that there is little buttons the interface is trs bine think.
    Ldition is really easy and the effects are quite easily set but with much paramtres possible.
    The manual is good and trs trs clear.

    SOUND QUALITY

    Frankly the quality of the effects is Sidr. The clean sounds are great leads as ANSI (the delay and the reverb does not eat up the sound). As against the crunch and distos, although good, are a bit plasticky COMPARED AT ToneLab (similar to the pod in a way), but the sound is clearer easier to configure.
    I think once in my amp lamps pass the sound will be comparable to the ToneLab.
    Level effects is the ToneLab Exceeds I think.
    Many effects, many parameters without going into the gas plant boss or digitech way. Here is the simplicity maitresss. The pitch is a bit shitfer 4 in 1 (whammy, Octave, harmonize and detune) one can draw a lot of things and a dozen epreset do with brillio.
    The hush is effective trs sound is clear. Even with the largest distortion I have ZERO noise ca me even a little strange to beginners because I think it's not normal!
    Beauoup I liked the construction of the chassis and particularly the pedal, which I find superior to that of the ToneLab (which is concrete yet)

    The wah sound is better too, and the Wammy / shofter pitch is absolutely monstrous with a total of ten presets crazy devoted to it. All custom settings are assigned to the pedals (gain, mix effects etc ...)
    To know that I chose to buy the pedals because it costs little more than the price of the whammy, and I just wanted one. For that alone I got a good deal.

    I find the presets well above what is seen elsewhere, here the goal is not to suggest the sound of Led Zeppelin and Metallica (although they are lol) but mostly inspiring presets with unexpected and sometimes use inspiring effects.
    There's really chelou stuff, sometimes it is Pink Floyd and JM Jarre. But it's not bad.
    As a fan of vai I find my happy!
    No fake stuff like the infamous boss me-50, which costs the same ..........
    I found it usable. GOOD 64 presets. Just moving a little qualisation.

    I am also enjoyable surprised that everything is EASILY hack and turn a few knobs relement change the sound.
    For example the channel controls the mega "bass" and "middle" relement sculpt the sound. It's great to spend a little time you can easily get any type of distos.

    The "British" is really not bad. the mega is great (despite the fact that I was not a fan of mesa), but the presets are too low, but hey I quickly fix that by drying the simulation of HP. The scoop is super aggressive mode is to sound more modern (like Dir En Grey or deftones ...)

    Texas by the cons I find quite average. Not bad but average. Nothing to do with the crunch of the ToneLab.
    The clean is really great, he lets the guitar do all the work and microphones are particulirement highlighted. I think of the micro of my single jem because I draw authetication sounds of country and surf, and with the evolution of cleans I draw funky phaser with really excellent. No imitations, the real thing.

    OVERALL OPINION

    For that price one can hardly ask for more ...
    All competitors in the range less than 300 euros are buried.
    I pay 190 euros (ebay us) for shipping and included adapter (45watt = 9x4 for the latter)
    Versions are more compltes prvues to overcome the lack of features but in reality it will be the same product with three buttons, I think this one is perfect at the moment.

    I tried the prophesy and it is true that it is not far away. The sound is not quite as good but the spirit is there, and then the price is not the same.
    Voila, a recommended purchase know you want a modern sound and full effect
    I have tried or have the Tonelab, the ME50 (yuck), a digitech, POD XT, and the Boss GT5 (the good and the trs is analog, nothing to do with The models include as GT8 ....)
    I sold the ToneLab VCAR sound and it sounded pretty tuft n'tait not adjustable. Trs good to play at home but live recording or nothing to do to get in the mix. Even with one of epdale qualisation has sortie.Il seems that ToneLab LE model will offer more of options to adjust the sound output has ......
    The Rocktron has nothing to do with the ToneLab, the sounds are the most modern vintage coubvre tnelab him. I like both.
    I hesitated with gt5. I do not boss so I took it but I will maybe buy 2 for comparison.

    Compared with the pod and other simulators, the highlights are:
    - Is not lost with 200 simus amp a little simplistic and insensitive to the setting. Here the sounds are well chosen and we draw what you want.
    - The coup could no attempt to imitate "the sound" but rather a good point bar. It's like an amp rather achte.
    - The effects bury the pod and the ToneLab six feet under.
    Only boss and digitech peuvet compete. Normal c'esty their craft at the base ...
    - The distos and clean sounds are good, better than some bosses I think.

    Weaknesses:
    - No choice of simulation, so we can not have "sound"
    - We must bend down to turn the knobs (no software or module)
    - Only 4 buttons is a bit limited. This interface is extremely well conceived says it is doing well with trs.
    I read the mod job (very light) to PDF prior to receiving the product and the minute I Premire Pourva navoguer lese in custom settings to find what I wanted. I can not say the same boss and digitech home.
    - Not a great choice of outputs and connections. It's not me drang then I record directly to the jack but for some it can be a problem.
    - The sounds are rather modern. That said I would add that you can have clean fenderien of the most beautiful espce.
    UPDATE: NEW FIRMWARE IS ON RESENTED G100 New later, now it is possible to assign the BYPASS THE MUTE BUTTON AND CHANGE PRESET DIRECTLY AT THE FOOT!

    So I put 10, I do not see what we can expect more ..........

    Everything has been said precent, it has tremendous potential, whether in the effects of bases or of the program.

    UTILIZATION

    - The interface is very bad I think, because given the level of sounds (very low for the price range) just a beginner should be able to use all the features of this pedal.
    - The button selection effects is very inconvenient as well as the selection buttons at the bottom, a lot, but then much too small for a proper speed and accuracy.
    The pedal is when she has a little too hard and not adjustable.

    SOUND QUALITY

    - The effects here are very modélidés unconvincing, I find the sounds of metal, just not good enough and eclectic in their field, namely the Rock, Hard Rock, Metal and other styles require good distortion ...
    Here the distortions and the effects are "plastoc" and not enough fat and powerful for modern styles.
    At the pitch or trying to effect a little eclectic at all, they are mainly there to have fun (just Gadget dare I say).

    I mainly use my Warmoth Firebird (or rather typed very modern style classic rock ... even if the split pickups allows great versatility) or my little John 5 telecaster and this pedal does not suit me at all!

    OVERALL OPINION

    Although the value for money and the ergonomics of the product are improved, the utopia is really a good choice for beginners but mainly because the sounds are not the author of all for the studio as the stage.
    A product to be tested to see if it suited his game, and buy in the U.S. (like all things American when you're a little bit clever!) On Ebay for example!

    Incomprehensible gibberish on most parameters arranged ergonomic disaster (6 manipulations to lower the master volume only, not ...), and I see no y'en trimmings into sub-menus to life sentence!
    Outputs well regarded, in the always fun, but very special power supply so you mess up.

    In fact if the old brand products were quite daunting, it is fifteen times more (if I am using my Intellifex).

    UTILIZATION

    An absolute horror! No tap tempo or the foot or elsewhere, no direct access to presets or the rest either, because by 3000 issues, to become completely crazy.
    The terms used are not always standard either, impossible not to be mistaken in fact.

    Imagine: global module, module mix, more guitar sound module on properly so called, all without any activity indicator is unmanageable. Lots of sub-menus to any manipulation, I've seen worse in the past 20berges Guitar Effects ...

    SOUND QUALITY

    There's getting better, I leave aside the ergonomic disaster. The effects are cool, fast, Polish, shrewd Brief of high-tech stereo is perfect. The parameters available are legion, is enough to fight. No tap tempo sucks, especially when it must choose its delay time in milliseconds (right, left, right mix, mix left, and it contiue to infinity ...), and in fact not high-tech.
    The preamps, mandatory, brr are icy in the idea but can be used for the ball or the fusion I guess. The manual clearly states that it is not the sound of Grandpa, does that have put a z'auraient only 4 preamps (boss and zoom are three times as much) and only two have done much z'auraient most musical in the proposed 4.

    What I got with the G100 is certainly high-tech, but fairly cold and synthetic, that lack of grain and musicality. And it's not a scoop, it was no better at the time (if zavaient at least put a tube in the signal).

    Positive note not to sink into depression, his ruler clean with your favorite distortion pedal in front is really good, nothing crashes, good terrain and all the details are. Not the case with most of the pedal multifx, a good place for the G100, we feel the processing power of the speaker.

    OVERALL OPINION

    This time I go and I drop the plan altogether, this machine is useless and adds nothing to the landscape guitar. Even at 60euro I want to, no thank you.
    In fact, was bought by Rocktron GHS, and these so-called new products are just the warm (cold) of which was designed before the redemption, updated packaging.
    The good thing is that they will highlight the patchmate, a looper 8 midi loops simply awesome (we leave the pedals wired into the rack, and driver with a simple pedal noon to distance), but in the case of g100 step ahead ...
    The G200 has at least one direct access to presets, but it's still dark to edit.
    I would say that with the progress of competition is not worth dwelling on this product, which is ultimately no guitar or studio or nice, very expensive for what it is. It makes koa? Utopia ...

    They will explain it all much better than me.

    UTILIZATION

    - It comes quickly to create their own sounds from a pre-recorded sounds (such presets are also all well pre-set, contrary to what use such a lot of other brands), one can find incredible sounds by changing just the presets, avoiding to spend 3 hours editing effects. Easy to adjust (for basic adjustments, at least)

    - The manual is not used at all for the basic settings, for cons it is useful when you want to fiddle with sound depth.

    - HEFTY: The pedal is designed to last and endure massive, all-metal ...

    - HEFTY: The pedal is designed to last and endure massive, all-metal ...

    - Good point: no amp simulation type copy of this Marshall amp "or" copy of Vox 4 channels but really different (from light to more saturated) and of course configurable at will, which can be sounds very polished, BEGINNING WITH THE SOUND OF HIS OWN AMP (I did not want to have 50 amp simulations, so I love the sound of mine!)

    - Small negative point = 3 buttons to full function, it is not always practical for editing effects (my old pedals were kind of an effect button = 1), but you get used quickly once that we know better pedal and editing sounds has become very fast for me.

    SOUND QUALITY

    The sound quality is up to his reputation to die for!
    Well above what I have tested multiple effects, nothing to do with its competitors: it is no longer in the same category!
    I play a little Blackheart amp tube with a Start (single coil Lace Sensor) or an Epiphone Wilshire (PAF humbuckers), and although the two very different with this great sounding pedal.
    The effects are measured is super professional ... I just regret that on 64 presets, there is a good 50aine distortions (admittedly excellent) and very little sound clear ...

    I put 9 because only with more sounds clear pre-recorded, I had more bases from which I published my own sounds clear = I gained a little time, but it's a detail ...

    It's really a good place to find, behind the effects, the original sound of his amp, and it is very rare in multi-effects which tend to mask the sound of the amp
    Of course you need an amp to correct the magic, if you want to hide a crappy amp with amp simulations in shambles, this is not the pedal for you!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use this pedal for 8 months
    The sound quality is by far the best I've tested in multi-purpose, really beautiful.
    I have owned for ZOOM, BOSS and DIGITECH, and quality ("external and internal) is well above.
    160 Euros bought secondhand, it's a great deal. That said you can now find new and at least 230 Euros and even at that price it is well worth the time, even if only for the life of seemingly endless

    It is true that the interface is improved (qqes advanced settings not easy to guess without the manual, 3 for 1000 based button that is not always practical either), but we completely forget all the little faults in the first Release notes for this big magic box ...

    With experience, I would do this choice with your eyes closed!
