Value For Money :
Poor
I have on loan for the second time in a year, and it does not always stick, so I share my perplexity about the value of such a product ...
First of all, you can not directly call its presets (to choose MORE TBC) and worse recall the switch does not like other Rocktron pedals to switch between the last two presets used. It is absolutely ZERO.
To make matters worse, so no MIDI cul-de-sac. Rocktron thank you.
4 preamps, unfortunately required me so I can not use the g100 for EQ and effects with my SansAmp pedal triac, for example. Or a simple distortion of the rule g100 clean, well ...
Incomprehensible gibberish on most parameters arranged ergonomic disaster (6 manipulations to lower the master volume only, not ...), and I see no y'en trimmings into sub-menus to life sentence!
Outputs well regarded, in the always fun, but very special power supply so you mess up.
In fact if the old brand products were quite daunting, it is fifteen times more (if I am using my Intellifex).
UTILIZATION
An absolute horror! No tap tempo or the foot or elsewhere, no direct access to presets or the rest either, because by 3000 issues, to become completely crazy.
The terms used are not always standard either, impossible not to be mistaken in fact.
Imagine: global module, module mix, more guitar sound module on properly so called, all without any activity indicator is unmanageable. Lots of sub-menus to any manipulation, I've seen worse in the past 20berges Guitar Effects ...
SOUND QUALITY
There's getting better, I leave aside the ergonomic disaster. The effects are cool, fast, Polish, shrewd Brief of high-tech stereo is perfect. The parameters available are legion, is enough to fight. No tap tempo sucks, especially when it must choose its delay time in milliseconds (right, left, right mix, mix left, and it contiue to infinity ...), and in fact not high-tech.
The preamps, mandatory, brr are icy in the idea but can be used for the ball or the fusion I guess. The manual clearly states that it is not the sound of Grandpa, does that have put a z'auraient only 4 preamps (boss and zoom are three times as much) and only two have done much z'auraient most musical in the proposed 4.
What I got with the G100 is certainly high-tech, but fairly cold and synthetic, that lack of grain and musicality. And it's not a scoop, it was no better at the time (if zavaient at least put a tube in the signal).
Positive note not to sink into depression, his ruler clean with your favorite distortion pedal in front is really good, nothing crashes, good terrain and all the details are. Not the case with most of the pedal multifx, a good place for the G100, we feel the processing power of the speaker.
OVERALL OPINION
This time I go and I drop the plan altogether, this machine is useless and adds nothing to the landscape guitar. Even at 60euro I want to, no thank you.
In fact, was bought by Rocktron GHS, and these so-called new products are just the warm (cold) of which was designed before the redemption, updated packaging.
The good thing is that they will highlight the patchmate, a looper 8 midi loops simply awesome (we leave the pedals wired into the rack, and driver with a simple pedal noon to distance), but in the case of g100 step ahead ...
The G200 has at least one direct access to presets, but it's still dark to edit.
I would say that with the progress of competition is not worth dwelling on this product, which is ultimately no guitar or studio or nice, very expensive for what it is. It makes koa? Utopia ...
