    + Distortion of the really well (as long as they are working)

    - Effects are they effective, responsive and realistic enough?
    Excellent for a multi-effects pedal .. (Same as full of BOSS pedals in series) recess should not be a good Bouza and set it all before saying that the sound is no ..
    - Which instruments do you use?
    Gibson Les Paul Studio 90 '
    - Which ones you prefer, you hate?
    The Slicer is excellent, and the compressors are configured to niiiquel donf like everything else ..

    OVERALL OPINION

    - How long have you use it?
    1 year, I am satisfied Ascending
    - What is so special that you like most and least?
    All in one and an equivalent to BOSS pedals in series (so no need to piss off)
    The 4 presets per bank accessible to the foot, it's perfect when you have sounds like good job and you got not just a distortion and clear sound for your whole set.
    I wish they still have + effect (but the yen has already bcp bcp bcp)
    The less I see no ...
    - Have you tried many other models before buying it?
    Several multi-effects, the GT-8 puts them all in the street!
    - How would you rate the quality / price?
    Good value for money, especially if you buy it at Thomann (with the cover preferably strong enough)
    - With experience, you do again this choice? ...
    forever ..

    UTILIZATION

    So I am not at all agree with the opinions Previous! The pedals are so easy to use! I read the manual once (used ca be read a manual I remind you!) APRS and I knew it all! And yet this is my first pedal!
    Editing patches is simple and can hyper CRER an infinity of sound. We shall adopt to say there that the saturation is false, the clean is great with the preamp.
    The manual is clear and complete, a hundred pages and nothing is forgotten!

    EDIT 12/02/2007: time when it knows a little better stuff, it gets really second nature!

    SOUND QUALITY

    Everything is working except the section prampli that I have a problem:
    Pramp ax on distortion, the sound is really too bad except for color of mesa preamp, I find the rest bof, even by a custom preamp. The problem is that to get the sound I want with a preamp distortion, I have to adjust the equalizer 4 band semi Settings, and then add an equalizer sub blocks me a comic effect, then a comic tone that I change the second and final blocking effect. What is con is that the function of prampli boss is super ingenious (the stereo preamp with a different in each channel etc ...) and I find bah preamp distortion ugly, even by adding boost with the overdrive.
    BUT! I found the perfect parade! Make a clean patch with preamp, and another patch distortion without preamp, with only the distortion and the sound equalizer which builds! We can customize all the effects and inventing his own, quickly gives trs absolute perfection, it RULES equalizer, and the sound is perfect, even more powerful than an analog pedal (yes!) .
    Then I wish to emphasize the versatility of this monster: I play strictly by all, and clean preamp with a lil boost, and I get the sound of Lynrd Skynrd! Paf a special patch Disto: saturated transistor and a booming shot PANTERA! Go hop another patch and a small air bluesy overdrive hyper vintage. And yet I play with a BC Rich Platinum Pro JR.V! (Besides I need to change the pickups BC Rich becaufe in clean those bastards start drooling over the low frequencies if I is not a secondary equalizer ...).
    Next, show the versatility, I play directly connected to a Hi Fi at its neutral hyper so I the natural sound of the pedal.
    I love everything in this system is fully adjustable pedals parcequ'elle! + A little for Wah, they great for the people numrique! Everything is excellent except that I do not like preamp distortion, but it is subjective.

    EDIT 12/02/2007:

    Bouah I'll pass the note of September 10 becaufe APRS have tried several amps I realize how the pedals are going everywhere! Right now I play in repeated in a room on a Roland JC-120 and I have a TRU-the-MONS them disto! (On the power thrash opre tendency Death). O Clean and everywhere I went c'tait nickel chrome! The acoustic simulator rgl well done wonders without rotting grain of your guitar.
    I want the rest to stress this point: this could not possibly PDAL your instrument in the extent that you know to use it (the pedals eh ^ ^).
    I tried several guitars and they did not lose their personality on my preset: a "stew" was a "crap" (a style bronze warlock XD) and a MH-400 mounts in EMG G81 (bridge ) and G85 (neck) retained its personality! The treble a little survey of 81 was being felt, a silent rqualisation ncessaire, the dynamics of the guitar n'tait altre not (my friend plays with the scratching of a 100 watt combo H & K and I have a friend who plays with a 15 watt VOX, grain EMG is completely palpable, and the big sound that comes from the stringed instrument is felt in all three cases). As clean as it was rqualizer a bit and down a little drive becaufe a shipment of wood EMG ca ^ ^ sounds as guitars taient Try It really all trs DIFFERENT!
    If you really want a fucking her must spend several hours on the GT-8 to make it out all it has in the gut (that's also numrique;)).
    Then the story of heat, etc. ... it's tall tales! Y is the grain that is different, and again, the big favorite style preamp Mesa and simulation of 5150 that are trsrussis, especially the simulation of the MXR distortion +: with this last re, if only to play the intro riff to Crazy Train and you sentire IMMEDIATE Randy Rhoads haunt your sound ^ ^

    I put 10 because there is absolutely nothing to blame the pedals sound level, everyone can find his account, be less than a big lazy or to be addicted to p ^ ^ dales original purpose of the GT-8 is not to simulate the perfection of existing MODELS dj lev less money but really to indulge his imagination and to express its effects in crativit intgralements paramtrables!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for more than six months, I have toured several times, and it impresses me all the time! Changes in internal parameters by pedals it's nice: lean on a button and poof you got what you want all that lights will turn off, or qi, in handy when it was not a foot controller noon!
    I have not tried other models, but hey, apart from the pedal line 6 there is no other that make me want ...
    The report quality price: HUGE! Given the quality of the machine, the price is pathetic! When we see an analog pedal costs 120 times more, even if it's bah numrique, the sound is full and pedal nikel!
    I do it again this choice at infinity, unless j'tais well over a frica j'machterai set any analog or multi-rack! But for 450, a monster like this is perfect, especially when we do not have effects and we need more effects that are costly in analog!

    Basically: Pedal perfect (except preamp distortion wah) and the price super affordable.

    NB: I bought a Gator cover transport, because the cardboard box in the travel bag to go repeated it hardcore! 23 29 see the cover, it's expensive for the canvas but it is essential to transport the tank: D

    EDIT 12/02/2007:

    If I could I will pass the note 11, I think I will never leave the pedals, because I also t charm and it will place long in my effects loop. I think when I have my amp TO ME, upscale, with a real distortion trs type, yet I will use the GT-8 for modulations as Flanger, Chorus, Rotary all sound very s good, and Delay is damn good job. It will soon be two years since I use it, and it saved me more than RPET (when you come across a sheep galleuse type marshmall Valvestate fatigue: p ...) and it allows me to have a really his EX-CEL-LENT in RPET now that I play on a good amp ^ ^

    - Effects on in rain (more than any other pedal).
    - Dual channel.
    - Amp simulations.
    - Simulations of micro guitar.
    - Digital technology.
    - Crankset sturdy (heavy too).
    - The connections also very robust.
    - The knobs are well made.
    - No USB at home the competitors
    - The look pretty cool.

    UTILIZATION

    The general configuration is simple.
    The edition sounds pretty easy.

    The manual is fine (after 3 to 5 hours to familiarize yourself with the beast).

    SOUND QUALITY

    The preamps are very bad. There are all alike.
    The distortions and preamps, like all the Boss Metal Zone in, as has been said in another opinion.
    The sound is cold as stone. The distortion is cool "like granite"
    sometimes very aggressive and metal.
    The gain of the preamps and distortion is very hard to manage (very difficult to get a crunch sound)
    The preamp distortion and very well saturated and very aggressive at times have a bad attack and not amplitude.
    The preamps and distortion drool too much, unlike effects.
    Very very disappointing for the prices and pretensions of the brand.
    The sound of the guitar is not preserved.
    Sometimes even too often for my taste, the sound part in Larcena (sometimes even at very low volume).
    There is a function (an effect) on the anti-Larcena GT8. For me, Boss has added this feature to overcome this defect.

    For the rest the effects are good, in that they do what is expected of them in general and are quite sharp.
    The acoustic simulation is not bad or no worse than elsewhere at least,
    but still, this is tempered by the overall sound of the pedal too cold.

    For those who would tell me that it's a specific Boss (in the sense that we like it or not), I will answer them when they sell a pedal with 46 simulations of tube amps, it s' expect to find, even a little, the sound of the lamps. Missed.

    OVERALL OPINION

    Do not buy if you want good distortion, good preamps and a warm sound.

    For those who I would argue that the Boss GT8 is not intended for amp simulation (but for use with the effects loop send / return) is possible,
    What I am not sure of the result and even less interest *
    and suddenly, you wonder, why it is proposed 46 simulations.

    Boss is below everything on this model.

    I have not tried the GT-PRO, but I imagine that the results should not be so much better.
    I bought the GT8, tested and sold as soon as three days.

    This is the kind of gear you go try to find sounds nice, for I do not know how long qd and you find a sound that approaches + or - of your original idea, well, you n 'will not want to play. Why?
    By the sound does not want to play.
    *: In my view, the interest of a multi-effect lies largely in the pressing
    on one foot for a sound pre-programmed and not have the distortion on a foot-switch on one side and multi-effects pedals on the other (in relation to the effects loop).
    Otherwise, put all the pedals in series, one after another, as some do with Boss pedals.

    Multi effects pedal for guitar.

    Effects a little rough.
    Reverb with a bit of breath.
    Grain too far.

    UTILIZATION

    Manual draft.
    Config not very practical, buttons and calves in abundance, not very well thought out ergonomics compared to other products.

    SOUND QUALITY

    The effects are garish, and I still can not find what I want.
    The distos and preamp are moldy.
    The boost also.
    The compressor is sometimes overzealous, I do not know if we can fix it but it can be removed anyway.
    I criticize this pedal when I have not had much before ...
    But it sounds a bit synthetic at times.
    Sometimes it's okay.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use this pedal for a year.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use this pedal for a year.
    For the home studio, it can, but sometimes the quality is not to go (44khz.. ... Effects of compression too noisy)
    To live it is useless, the effects are never there or they are waiting, the settings must be thoroughly done before, not to make mistakes, gain volume levels that change ...
    It did not succeed.
    I prefer a guitar with a natural drive amp.
    Ok purchase mixed results.
    But I am perhaps not enough fun with.
    I am broke ears anyway.
    I am not a fan of this kind of pedal.
    Not as good a pedal that is dedicated to one purpose.
    But hey, when you're not a millionaire ...
    Try the pod in parallel with the GT8 for you eune fair idea.

    Hi,
    I'm talking about the GT Pro is the equivalent of 8 GT with 200 programmed effects and as available. It's a race to the amount I preferred to quality.
    Technology-nothing to say except it's very pro buttons not very practical at the setting "preamp" and plastoc not too clean.
    Everything is editable in PC & Mac.
    Complete connectivity but I have not found a solution to connect my studio of the same brand live??

    Finally big deal what's the point of having two engines and two channels so if you can
    edit the channel A?? me in my little head I thought "A rhythm channel, channel B riffs, solos solo channel ....... I may be ahead of my time??

    UTILIZATION

    I have already said all I can add that the manual is very clear and editing sounds and effects is easy.

    SOUND QUALITY

    For this chapter I add that there are too many effects "its scratch" and they would think to name them as those of the home studio of the brand.
    You have your great sound with your studio and thinks the show live with e GTpro or GT8 and well "nyet" no follow-up for the musician with that provider, we have sounds and we love them again right??.

    OVERALL OPINION

    J'utise the GT pro for three months.
    What I like most is from repeat with this thing under my arm without being forced to take my amp branch because I live on the sound system up and roll my chicken ...
    I have not tried it the other sounds of the AB 1200 "my home studio" which led me to this product.
    Do not tell me the price I will get angry. I found more than 500 (five hundred) Euros apart on the same new product, it's rather disorder and does not encourage purchase. Notice a thousand Euros, we do not want to rush either.
    I do it again this election bought at a price no more expensive and urges that the representative of the brand as its resellers with the product because they are very light on the issue in my area.

If we want the config is simple asser intuitive. on the other hand if we start to want him sticking effects in all directions there will have to be patient. It has great possibilities but you have to spend hours there is less familiar with the effects and how to place them and how to address them.
    Product for bidoulleurs, plug'n'players go your way!

    SOUND QUALITY

    Regarding the effects, if one takes the trouble to settle those are convincing, for if the scales against bulk bah there is soon a beautiful mess!
    Personal jsuis convinced of all the effects like delay, chorus, phaser, flanger ... the distos are too impersonal for my taste, they are difféerentes and at the same time are similar, the color is the same, jsuis less convinced. When the amp simulations, there bah It all depends on the use you make of it and the qualifier of "simulation" is not for nothing; to the recording studio is not bad (with good basis of his you can get something correct, I test with a pod I was disgusted m'enfin tastes and colors ...).
    Personal j'lutilisai repeating and paronychia is not to have an amp STAP and which saves space and upgrade its bah pretty happy, although he transcribed the personality of the guitar (not as it could of **** pod or you got the same sound if you plug a telecaster squier or!). satisfied on that point.
    As against the use with an amp, there is the deception, that you pete relationship that may exist between your guitar and your amp, it's frustrating! With an amp from sticking to the system of the track (I test with my telecaster 78-F30 on a mesa, marshall TSL100, fender hot rod, and an Ashdown head, the disappointment every time while its plugged in live is so enjoy!)
    Basically not live with this creature as you do not find the ideal configuration to the risk of feedback that you understand why they are there and sounds pouraves

    OVERALL OPINION

    I buy there 1 year and a half because I needed all kinds of effects and I had more imperatively amp so it was almost the ideal solution. Anyway he gave me great help. Jme lugging a zoom707II before the change was so radical as you can imagine. It is Assé robust, we mean that a 100kg guy will put his own before the damage (I have a pti glitch with mine with the volume knob general ass who has no guts, he by the garage>>> We regret a bag.)
    Given the current market products, jpense it is good value for money.

    If I Devaya again the choice of a multi effects in its class I will opt instead for the ToneLab SE, but I do not regret my choice

    The qualizer it will turn ugly and horrible little distos into sounds monstrous and standards

    I leave for qualisation low normal, I cut a little middles from a 800 KHz and cons I turn a lot of acute (type - 10dB) to 4 or 5 kHz, plus a low-pass 8 or 11 kHz.

    And it's magic

    OVERALL OPINION

    Very good stuff but for those who love the look and sound hack for hours
    I deprecated those who not want to take the lead as the GT8 MUST be taken out of the head sounds good

    SOUND QUALITY

    The effects are effective but do not have the same fishing with a set of pedals and then the rest of this digital so it sounds pretty cold at the base but hey there is something truly love.
    I use it with my guitar for home, rehearsal or concert I think there's nothing like a set of pedals, is less to the experimental or very thorough with the synthetic love.
    I love electro effects, the different wah and funky gadgets etc.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I IT CAN BE USED for about a year.
    I love the wide range of effects, like the little side synthetic and congestion when traveling.
    Before buying it so I board not tried to effect abortion and wanted a lot of choices and see all guitar effects before creating my set.
    The price / quality ratio is very good because it was a real plant that gives you all the same for your money.
    I would do this choice because it is a good start to engage the effect, play at home and be able to have a package of possible sounds.
    But the few negatives mentioned, and after hearing the sound of pedals simple I should not put more than 8

    UTILIZATION

    At the beginning it is clear, but it ca palm APRS is his instinctive use of the bte

    The manual, uh bah in fact I have never read it all xD but I can say that it does not explain all of the functions ...

    SOUND QUALITY

    Then, it trs simple if you want to get something you have interest be patient, even if it's not worth thinking you can resell dj .
    I made it my at least 3 or 4 months before we know him to get these guts (I've had seven months), now I can guarantee you that all the sounds of the can (I mean ALL) are usable the clean sounds like distos trs are good bills. With a little delay and chorus added a disto (I forget which), I make a clean sound for solos. For clean sounds, it is little bah prs same except I do not put a delay, but the reverb and a little chorus and it's killing her!
    But I advise you not to put too much gain, put in the bare minimum, do not bother to make the big redneck and to put the max ...
    A good outside, there are many effects that are not used much like the sitar, 2xchorus ...
    Update: I have a new amp, an Ashdown Fallen Angel DSP 60 and the GT-8 sounds of thunder and Pali lack of midrange and treble of the amp
    The effects sound perfectly

    OVERALL OPINION

    Strengths:
    - Very practical when it is known to use it,
    - The quality of sound that can be achieved by fiddling,
    - It feels solid under foot joints jump xD

    Weaknesses:
    - Difficult to ACCS in the beginning,
    - The sounds unnecessary

    I use it now for seven months, the report qualitprix trs is good, I had a multi-purpose behringher (I know how his s'crit) cot 80 euros but the boss Vidament it does not measure up xD.
    Exprience with (and a little over Thun) I bought a combo while non-xD lamps. DCON just no experience with the course that I do it again this choice ^ ^

    And I repeat the two words-cls, the two key words that any user of GT-8 must remember: Patience and Perseverance

    Modification: The pedals are much better with a good amp, it leaves all these guts
    and it is beautiful

    SOUND QUALITY

    The prampli is, at the same level as the POD, but sounds DIFFERENT. It seems to ring less than the POD to beginners, but with the hack it is more versatile. The distortions are nice, sounds less than their analog equivalent, but the distortion pedals 30 in a machine we do not pleindra too. The effects sound''studio''in the sense that they sound clean and prcis, lacks a bit of''vibe''and warmth, but this is not standard prs all multi-effects. What I drang most is the color it brings to her is loss of precision, the sound''veil''. They could have put better converter.

    OVERALL OPINION

    In gnral, the GT-8 is a good multi-effects trs. It sounds good, built solidly and possde almost all that can DSIR. Trs good report quality price. On the next version (if they make one) is that "they amliorent the quality converters, adds a signal lamp (why not) and they do sound effects more''vintage.''Tr s good buy if you like tweaking, I prfre the POD, Tonelab SE or zoom.

    UTILIZATION

    The basic functions are intuitive trs, I loved the Manual mode that allows the pedals of spare change patches in individual pedals example: the first pedal enables or disables the preamp, the second is the overdrive, the delay the third and so on. In other words it's like to get a brand of stomp box pedalboard consitutents. The assignment of effects pedals to control and expression pedals for me a t-puzzle.Peut be true because c'tait pdalier my first multi-purpose.

    SOUND QUALITY

    Losrque I used my gt-8 for the first time I connected to my Mesa Boogie Nomad 100 combo. Silent sound good but only low volume. Aussitt I rode my volume feedback FORT dsagrable was still on. Then I heard about the 4 mthode cables.Cela given me a better rsultat but there was still some feedback and what your exact n'tait not that I wanted. One day I shall decide to plug into my computer and check me to see her. WOW I found his vocation. The sound is fantastic if you configure the right, and more by connecting it through the afternoon, you can Tlcharger full of patches of good quality available on the net. Pdalier this gives me a hell of a condition that it is connected either to register in my computer or a console went directly into the monitors. The tube amps are not strong, may be a transistor amplifier with the rsulat would be better. I put 9 / 10 because to use that I made, the sound is nickel.

    OVERALL OPINION

    "I should have more versatility ESPR for connection (I can use AIM on my Mesa)
    Cot-sound, there is a tural versatility, you can play anything.
    "That's when even a good quality price. It is much cheaper than buying individual pedals.

    For cons, I regret that this transition from a patch is done in the other Manir gnrale is - that applies all the patches, not just individual patches.

    UTILIZATION

    In beginners, a sound complicated but once you read the manual, it's pretty simple! It just takes time to find its rglages. Otherwise the manual is still lacking a bit of precision (What is this paramtre ?...).

    Custom settings for each effect are really trs complete!

    SOUND QUALITY

    Trs trs good effects and good quality for that price.

    Sounds Overdrive / Distortion plutt are bad and too dirty with a gain lev a little too artificial (except that I love Booster). It is better to use with the Preamp.
    We can customize its own distortion and the HP but no agreement with The argument [output Select] on 'Line / Phones. "

    Otherwise certain effects are double complter sound:
    2x2Chorus, Sub Eq, Limiter (FX), Compressor (FX), Auto Wah, Touch Wah

    OVERALL OPINION

    Many possibilities with custom settings effects and assignments!
    I also love the design and the color black.
    Report qualitprix trs reasonable!

    See above descriptions.

    UTILIZATION

    - Multi-Effects Complete, so complicated and so it's like that and it makes sense to me.
    - This pedal requires patience and requires an adjustment of all its patch after amplification equipment on which it is connected (amp, sound ...).
    - Fortunately, the instructions are clear and very detailed.

    In my opinion, this pedal is only recommended for musicians who already have a good knowledge of the effects.

    SOUND QUALITY

    - The effects are nice when you take the time to respect the chaining logical fit correctly each parameter (including individual volumes).
    - I use it with Gibson Flying V on a live PA.

    The whole is a bit cold, Digital oblige.

    OVERALL OPINION

    - I have this pedal for 4 years and am only used in multi effects with a tube preamp in the loop.
    I finally decided to put his nose in it and I use the preamp section proposed.
    I'm surprised because you can actually find everything you want. / "\ I think, the coupling preamp and equalizer is required to cut the side of saturation despite nazillard simulations speakers.

    I find the possibility to put 2 amps to the left and right EXCELLENT! The sounds can be huge!

    - The factory presets are not good, as usual!
    - Objectively, it is impossible to judge this pedal without actually having it programmed, I'm talking about programming, and yes!
