Actually, I like this unit even less than before. There isn't much to like.
Where to begin. As noted in the prior review, this unit died after two hours. I later discovered that using the onboard controls to tweak settings while having it plugged into the computer resulted in a "fatal error" fault--shutting the thing down.
Basically the computer editing software is worthless. Even more so, if your computer uses the Vista OS. And forget about it if you're running any version of Linux.
DigiTech claims to have addressed the issue of Vista compatibility with a major firmware and X-Edit Revision. I just spent two hours trying to install the revisions. As I anticipated, the instructions provided by DigiTech's website do not work.
The hardware construction is superb.
Unfortunately, the firmware and software are worthless.
If I had this purchase to do over, I would not purchase this unit. Other units in this price range have on/off switches and operate on batteries as well as having superior features.
Pass this unit by. There are better units out there which are less trouble.
