There are all the basic effects like all full effect psychdliques trs that sounds good when you know rgler. As against the pramplification little less, the sound is too modified the 3 bands EQ preamp is not very precise, and the gain needs to be a minimum 12 to hear the sound, whether clean or a preamp distortion. I will discuss APRS.
In terms of connectivity: GENIAL! Stereo output, digital output, connectors noon for the exchange of give and connect to the foot controller is the fte!
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 ^ ^
