«  A good Swiss Army Knife for electro-acoustic »

The types of effects? has just about all the available effects (chorus, flanger, EQ, Delay, Reverb ...)

Not be edited on the PC, the USB port is only used sound card (ZOOM shame because the logic is not easy to understand)

Connectivity: USB, Jack IN / OUT, XLR

UTILIZATION

The configuration of presets is not easy but once understood the logic, you can quickly ring the beast.
The manual is clear if we can find it in French ...

SOUND QUALITY

It's more realistic for the price. Sure there are better but more expensive.
I use it with a Simon & Patrick SP6 which I added piezos. I have no pre-amp so I use the pedal with the HI GAIN option to increase the input level.
It's not easy because at every boot you have to press the left button to turn on the option ... But hey, it's waiting to offer a preamp worthy of the name to my great Canadian.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for three months but I is not done the trick.
This is my first model of multi-effect Acoustic-Electric therefore no basis for comparison.
I like the adjustability of the simulations (Sim 12 strings is quite interesting)
Adjusting microphones is complete, you can really play on the quality compared to the guitar pickups (I will test this pedal on an electric acoustic Takamine to compare)

Product bought used, and for the price it's a good deal.

Anyway, for the scene is good but for the recording studio, it is preferable by far the sound with a microphone directly in front of the 12th fret ...
