UTILIZATION

So my opinion on the use: I have a POD XT Live possd (hardware crazy! For the pros!) Just before the ZOOM G7. I can say that the zoom is 20 times easier to use and that it has not much envy the POD level sounds (I will discuss below)!
The edition of the effects is very simple and it can happen quietly in the operating instructions in French, which for me is good and sufficient Retailer.

SOUND QUALITY

Finally here we are! (Always compared with my POD XT Live)

The ZOOM possde effects trs trs good quality. The distos, overdrives and other loadings are clean, sharp and sweet desire ... the delays, chorus, phaser etc.. trs trs are good quality too!
(POD rev silent effects as well as distortion and overdrive but silent too ... drooling a bit too vintage for me, too much and not enough overdrive distortion and even when we get to have a sound not too bad there was an amazing and breath attacks mdiator Submitted too. This is not the case with the ZOOM G7). It must be said that the POD XT Live is too complicated for an amateur like me! lol!

Pre-amplification part is a little extra light INTERESTED! It "Global Warming" sounds a lot ...

I personally use with my ZOOM G7 the following hardware:

- Ibanez JS100 with DiMarzio PAF PRO micro DiMarzio Evolution neck and bridge
- Fender Stratocaster Standard Mexico with a kit of active pickups with a booster qualiseur low / mid / high EMG DG20 (David Gilmour)
- SAMICK Artist Sries with two singles and a double DiMarzio Fred bridge

I use a Marshall amp in VS100R.

I plug in the ZOOM faade of the amp or directly on my PC. Whatever! The sound is great! And I find that the sound of the guitar is very well although the refund notice diffrent this level. Fender has the sound of a Fender and Ibanez has a sound of Ibanez.

While there are some effects that I do not use effects ... a little weird but the advantage with this is that ZOOM is something for everyone!

(POD XT Live is a good amp simulator trs but that's it ... the zoom is certainly less complete amp simulation, but much more versatile)

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 2 months. What I like most is the sound quality and versatility. You can do everything with the ZOOM!

What I like least is the amplitude of the expression pedals (much shorter). That of POD had a good reach, like a real wah-wah which gave a better precision.
It is also necessary to saw the light of pre-amp back! Especially on the clean sounds, unless you love the sounds on the clean sounds Crunch!

Outside the POD XT Live I ZOOM G7 before, I tried a TONELAB SE (not bad at all but I stayed on my hunger).

I also long ago a ZOOM 505. Plastic, cheap, easy to use, good sound the era (now a bit when Exceeds same!), Not many opportunities but at least worked.

APRS all these tests from other manufacturers, even when I returned to ZOOM.

The ratio quality price is really incredible. ZOOM in progress they have made a standard of quality multi-effects! Quality both in sound quality in manufacturing.

In any case, I would do this choice with his eyes closed! This is an excellent multi-effects I highly recommend!

A + and "Let's Rock!"
