Everything has been said on previous opinions. I would add just turn solid and reassuring.

UTILIZATION

Very easy to use, if you took a moment to read the manual. The "easy" is very useful because it allows us to approach quickly the type of sound can be searched and then refine. Apart from selecting the type of effect you want change, it works as separate pedals. The big advantage will be the memory (30 memories)

SOUND QUALITY

The OD are to my taste and allow to find a warm sound of harmonics. The compressor is excellent. The distortions are, in my opinion, a tone lower: a little loud (but this also depends on the amp that is used) The modulations seem very suitable for a multi-purpose. The delay and reverb are very powerful words, the compact and quality quite acceptable given the volume and price of the beast. The difference compared to individual pedals seems very low (at least those I could compare to having, namely CS2 compressor and delay DD2. Ditto for the OD that the heat of my TS10 but that grows more below)

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for one month I have a few individual pedals and a multi purpose (Tonelab) The big advantage of this product is its simplicity and the possibility of a multi effects without modeling (as ToneLab) and which distorts not the sound of his favorite amp. This is by far my favorite multi all the ones I used: - simplicity - his guitar and amp undenatured - very nice price! - Volume and reduced size compared to an equivalent set of pedals (not to mention budget) In short, you understand ... I like the BOSS He did not play it ... remains in sobriety ... but ensures at what he does. That he ask for? I note 9 for perfection does not exist ...
Small addition of 7 December 2010: I always corny. Although it sounds worse than my individual pedals, I must admit that when I go out ... I took it to him. I've never been disappointed by the Boss. I especially wanted to add that I leave the master level between 15 and 20 max: the sound is much cleaner at all levels, breath ... very small (it's true that I do not use large distortion), and OD ... with a tube amp ... should not complain ... it sounds very correct.
In short, I'm still happy.
