    SOUND QUALITY

    The effects are of incredible clarity, and very rich. I find the acoustic guitar simulation and bluffing guitard ausi low. a range of configurable effects galore. j'utile me a Fender Stratocaster and I mangniphique.aucun sound is sound that I hate, that's good for me.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I been good one week, I like the build quality, very solid. I prefer a thousand times that my old digitech pedal. value for very very good price for a product to top technology and providing quality manufacturing. I do not regret my choice and I'm really happy to finally have an effective range of the most realistic, powerful and clear! I recommend it highly, it is a wonder!

    UTILIZATION

    It is a pdalier, so all information passes through a small screen with lots of little buttons! (With the feet is not gnial ... lol)
    remains even when ditable with little decision-head!

    SOUND QUALITY

    I tried the GT5, then the GT6, and this one, and I would like roland or boss out directly GT16! I find it does not much change from the prcedent and even better ... I had them a GX-700 there are a lot of time and apart from dj ... connectors, converters and put some effects up to date (24 bit / 96 kHz), I thought it sounded like Quazi said it well ... but it's all (still no lights !) for the 21-Century clger!

    good when there the same distortion, reverbs etc. that sounds good but I'm not surprised!

    OVERALL OPINION

    Good machine overall suit small purse ... a complete package of boss pedals in a few bonus + pdalier nice but no more!

    Just a page for the handling of the chain effect ... it's just

    SOUND QUALITY

    - Effects are they effective, suitable and adequate ralistes?

    The chain effect by default is:

    FX1 (a fact out of 22 available)
    CS (Compressor)
    Wah ()
    LP (LOOP effect send / return)
    OD (a distortion effect from 30 + 3 custom)
    PRE (up from 46 preamp 2 + 3 custom)
    EQ (4 band Equaliser 1)
    NS (Noise Suppressor)
    FV (Foot / pedals) volume
    FX2 (an effect from 22 (the same as fx1) or one among 11 other effects SPECIFICATIONS fx2)
    DD (Delay - excellent)
    EC (chorus)
    RV (Reverb - Excellent)

    So if the LOOP enlve FV and it's been more than 11 "effects" Whereas in the preamps as effects. FX3 and FX4 for the GT16 can be.

    The list of effects is pltorique FX1 and FX2 (33 total), not all are worthy of interest (Harmonist Synth, Octave, sitar sounding trs GT5)
    The acoustic simulator does not convince me at all.

    For the rest:
    The clean sounds are disont it, and my surprise really good (much better than my pod2). Some patches from the factory with two preamp with dual L / R, a bit of delay, comp and chorus, it jourrait all night.

    Crunch sounds, no effect is medium / correct on the single coils in position 2 and 4

    The distorted sounds, the patch of the plant are ultra dmonstratif and the level of drive always trs (too) lev therefore Premire approach when I compare my example it is POD2 first surprised and not necessarily in the right direction. From my point of view the cosmetic is not the height of line6.
    No effect, in accordance with the game it works well, alone is less convincing than the pod2. The definition / precision is lower, ca drooling a little, as its generally more granular view nasal.

    Now, we must recognize that with 2 preamp with dual L / R and a little effect is compensated for easily and quickly obtained a trs trs trs big sound, but not necessarily Fidler.
    One wonders also be the reason for the distortion pedals 30 when you put a left and a 5150 Correct right. Fans of death metal, trash and other find their account ...

    INTERESTED also the possibility to disable compltement preamp section, which allowed me to send in the GT8 POD2 bnficier for its effects (which are really beyond compare them with those of pod2) and is the best of both worlds for heavy distortion intermdaires.

    Jou a MusicMan LUKE 2

    Listen with headphones audio technica ATH/M40 'parliaments for analysis without outside

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for a week

    Cons: not in acoustic simulator
    synth effect and other effects of piping that clutters

    ways: the channels crunch / overdrive effect that no rendering is too dry

    most: definitely double preamp
    Delay, comp, chorus reverb, eq efficient trs
    clean sounds

    The report quality is still excellent price is 420 + 4 pedals power supply

    If I win the lottery, I do not have that choice would do in the meantime we will work the patch ...

I tried the GT6 and the difference is clear: quality effects, new (things that are useless but are also roar with laughter ^ ^), and dynamic sensing mode which, although set, promises long hours of frenzied rhythm! The price / quality ratio I think ... terrible! With experience, of course I would do the same choice! To those who leave comments on forums "distos medium / pathetic / cool ...." euuuuh ... will have to stop thinking about touching children eh! Certainly not worth gnagnagna analog effects ... but seriously to say what kind of stuff you refrain: it is clear that this is not the same quality but to qualify distos of unusable there is no one that I find rather unfair to pass!

    Especially since Boss had forgotten (deliberately?) Something big .... : You can assign any MIDI signal to a patch (from 1 to 128) ... that's good.
    .... But we can not assign the scroll of the MIDI signals to one of the pedals contained in the GT-8.
    Result: If, during a concert you want to run a series of sounds (no dancing like crazy on your GT8), you should invest in a small external MIDI controller. (See topic that I filed in the forum)

    The French manual is not in the box. Remember to ask the sellers, they are usually in separate packages.

    SOUND QUALITY

    A big damper on the effect octaver and shift: It's very convincing when it transposes into the grave, but it is much less in the treble. By connecting an acoustic 6 string, I would have liked to get a beautiful sound of 12 strings (with a bit of time and shift to the upper octave) ... But it's yuck :-(

    Also, I'm not a fan of distorted sounds .... and there is the overdose. I have turned many users in the banks. For banks factory, there can not do anything: they are there and they stay there ... For me it's just a waste of space.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had three weeks. Well now I master all the basic manipulation (edit, save etc ...)
    I am now trying to discover the more advanced features, and it sometimes becomes the puzzle: the pedal is fully configurable: it's great, but you really think about the toy you want to make ...

    The seller had taken the Vox Tonelab SE. I had two days at home, and then 2 days .... the GT-8 I preferred Boss (price, size, use more intuitive ...) Ironically, my choice was not too focused on the sounds, because for one as for the other, I did not like factory sounds ... (75% saturated sound ... enough is enough)

    Despite the criticisms above, I do it again this election easily, because for 450 euros (3000 !!!!), balls were a huge number of effects ...

    -EQ (parametric for high medium and low medium)
    -Possibility to change the parameters of existing patch (The strong point but requires hours of work)
    -The display is screwed up and readable (you can adjust contrast)
    -Tuner

    UTILIZATION

    The manual is provided in English, arghhh but it seems that there is one available in French on the Net
    ... Expect a few hundred pages auf if you go out of an old GT, your task will be facilitated.

    Dispostiion of the knobs and logical enough, not hard to dip, I do not think there too many buttons as some think. If we do not linger to return to the parameters pushed, Yes you can find a very nice type fast enough MESA channel 3, nu-metal in your fu ... powa 'n spikes teen ...
    The different effects can be configured quite easily, I admit it must be a little time to adapt well to be comfortable with the name of the effect parameters

    SOUND QUALITY

    I use it for a short week with a BC Rich NJ Beast on a Marshall combo (eurkk) hybrid. No I find that the effects really make it, but I have not had time to test everything yet. The rendering of distortion is comparable to the real kind MT2 Boss pedals etc.
    For simulation of preamp, I'm more mixed, there are good and bad for my taste (eg 5150). But it must be arranged by fiddling the parameters of the simulations. A check then.
    I had the chance to test it for a few hours with a Jackson Dinky United States ... and there ...... no I think it's best used with a skyscraper worthy of the name (sounds NJ still very good) and especially with a good combo or stack in order to assess the best opportunities

    EDIT of 10/01/06: for trying to exploit some of this multi-effects overdrive on a JCM 800, I was very disappointed, it colors the sound as not possible, either pre-or JCM in four cables, it is the big shit, the grain of the JCM is violated, and it's not a matter of adjustment ... SO: Use with caution if you do not want to lose the spirit of your amp. good ..

    OVERALL OPINION

    I find the value for money than convincing, I paid 430 euro in trading a lot. At that price it has everything sfaut underfoot ... for the price of 3-4 Boss pedals ...
    I tried the POD XT Live, even if it's not really comparable, I prefer the GT8. Also tried the GNX4, bofbof some metal sounds on the GNX4 not bad ... too many functions that had not useful ...
    I probably do it again this choice

    Other models: VOX? I hesitated a bit, I find the most VOX "Roots" but much less versatile ...
    Price / Quality: No complaints on this, we pay for, and more.

As for the rest, it is a exellent machine.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for 8 months and I'm not that I intend to possibly return to the good old traditional pedals. With a have not mistaken! Question qualitprix is ​​the best. Before aqurir a GT8, I SSAI quite all that it is on the march and in the multi-effects, it is the best. If I did not intend to buy traditional pedals, I would do that choice 110%. For $ 550 Canadian, was worth it!

    UTILIZATION

    After understanding the ways that you offer this "multi-effect", the GT-8 is an exceptional tool for playing "live" or to play alone. Better to buy a pedal like the `s rather than buy small compact when you play often" live ". Firstly, less than "jack" to aporte compact and small.

    SOUND QUALITY

    Corect except that the wah sound quality does not as such a Cry Baby. For a fan of Hendrix's better to buy a wah pedal. The Pitch Shift are cool and offers a variety of its distortion for any style of music.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it already for 6 months and I am perfectly satisfied.

    Ae!
    I test in my store just prfr APRS Vox ToneLab. With Vox, in 5 minutes, I understood how my sounds. For the Boss, even with the manual is the galre! Y has buttons everywhere, menus everywhere ... It is not at all intuitive and I do not have the impression that there any logic in the design of the contraption! bizarre home Rocktron, there are 3 knobs on their products, and with it all RULES. Too simple to BOSS??

    The effects are nice. BOSS has sounds but hey, we know what we achte ...
    For cons, the amps ...! My god! my old Digitech Genesis was better!
    It has one branch of my scratch on my amp. We did everything we could but can not get a good sound. and not to does not come from his guitar (Les Paul Custom)!
    I put 5 because the effects are good but I find that even when I'm nice.

    OVERALL OPINION

    The price that has cost, a cost worth the exception of OCCAZ. Prfrez Vox ToneLab him that sounds much better if you want a multi pdalier +.
    If you want a modeling, save your money and see the Line6 ct (I like it but not better quality even when ...)
    If you want effects, invest in an effect rack plutt not too expensive (G-Major, Xpression ...) + pdalier Midi (Berhinger. ..). It's a bit more expensive but quality level is something else too ...

The result is unstoppable, the passions of his heavy mtal apprciront custom settings of the simulator adjustable at will (microphone type, distance, angle) and those, indpendament properly and left.

    Note that I use the double switch marshall as auxiliary pedals, so it is possible to change the patch and the bank while having the possibility to switch the effects (on / off).

    SOUND QUALITY

    Nothing to say about the quality, except that the grain can numrique faile show these limits if the levels are poorly rgls.

    Also a weak point on the simulator, which is always a sound hp electronic diffiile correct (but far lpersonne did better)

    OVERALL OPINION

    More than pdalier is a real home studio, capable of replacing a hardware installation consquante, for me it's seen everything, how to do without it?

    - Which instruments do you use?
    I play a jackson dk2 (micro seymour) and a ltd mh400 (EMG: p)

    a mg100dfx: this amp sounds no matter what you plug dessu not worth
    a bass amp peavey Microbass are the madman I rgal (the mg100dfx a cot could not possibly match)
    APRS and now have sold my bandit I buy a 112 ValveKing 212 (100 w lamp peavey) and it sounds great (I keep the distortion of the amp WG8 therefore serves as the effects and the qualisation except for the clean and crunch blues or GT8 brings a big plus)
