There is an equalizer, delay, Ducker, chorus, reverb and a hush. Harmonizer effects, etc. are among the swells in menus and effects previously mentioned are indeed present, 150 presets.
All effects are editable in degrees loan with audible influences at each level, the top.
I have not tried to connect to pc via midi, but it is controllable via this principle can not be edited but it seems to me.
It is a rack, no fan noise etc. ...
There are in l / r out l / r midi in / out, simple and necessary. No input into facade ...
I do not see what's missing. I put 9 ... An output line out / line out would have been the best for the recording.

UTILIZATION

The general configuration is simple?
Uh .... No
Editing sounds and effects is easy?
Uh .... no, no manual is the loose, a lot of parameters that directly affect the end result, careful I'm not saying it's bad! On the contrary! This is not a marshall reverb, 0)
The manual is clear and sufficient?
TT & F is awesome but a bit elitist if you do not know the technical terms you'll be a little lost, everyone does not know what the damping, etc. regen ...
I found a manual in English, being bilingual I am the fart, but otherwise I'm little suicide ...

SOUND QUALITY

To top it's effects, reverb and delay are to die, they are actually being part of the sound (I do not know if you understand me .. but hey ...) they are not reported and form a whole with the distal which are before the sound has an amplitude impressive. In my closet GT10, the Rocktron is cheaper and better!
The chorus is beautiful and the EQ is a killer it gives body to your sound is really what was missing in older versions, I can do death metal with my HT Dual ... Cool ...
For the hush without comment is the top.
In summary there is no 60 effects but what quality!
I use it with different types of guitars, EC100, Egen8, VGS, Explorer, it colors the sound without biting on the texture of guitars.
I do not use any effects (say 80%) but none seems superfluous.

OVERALL OPINION

I know the intellifex to be used in the past, I returned it today for the quality / price and its ability to blend into a rack. The XL version is top view they added EQ.
In format rack I did not use much else, apart from a Line 6 XT Pro when I was younger, not possible comparisons. Not even use either what is more plug and play ....
Regarding the fact I know myself a lot and I definitely fallen leaves Boss and everything that is not controllable via midi.
I put 9 for all criteria, it's worth.
