OVERALL OPINION
opinion below is excellent and I share everything that is said about the quality of the GT8 as a multi-purpose. The interface is particularly excellent, the delays and reverbs are very successful and it is really value for money. The only drawback is the lack of looper worthy of the name but after all it is a vintage cheaper than ME 70 and much better for the effects - with the great advantage of the GT ie free chaining effects. Also, a funny effect of retaining the note called "sound hold", although a less EHX freeze, but still.
on the other hand, what made me sell mine shortly after buying it the very average quality simulation models, and especially the one I use most, the Bassman. Not to mention the original amps, compared to Guitar Rig, a Vox Tonelab or a AdrenaLinn, WG8 does not sound at all, it is flat, hollow, without dynamic, soft knee, especially with headphones or live card sound. It is possible that it is me who has struggled to settle, but as I got to find a / sounds that I like very easily on simus mentioned above ....
