This is the ancestor of digital multi-effects. model 19 "rack
effects: compressor, overdrive / distortion, EQ semi parametric, filters, noise reduction, short delay, triple stereo delay, chorus / flanger / pitch / spaced (a kind of chorus), phaser, auto-pan, line filter, reverb
Unlike many of the effects can be produced strings in any order: a
possibility to chain up to 12 simultaneous effects
a front panel inputs and rear
2 balanced XLR outputs
Output in asymmetrical 2X2 jack 6.35: Output for amplifier A and B output amplifier, both are from stereos or 2X2
MIDI IN, OUT, THROUGH
owner taken to MIDI controllers and fc100mk2 roland FC100
can operate with two expression pedals (one for any parameter, the other for the output volume must)
Maping possibility of MIDI input and output
Front Input volume
no digital output: -1
It was not designed for use in a loop: -1. However, in the loop of my mesa raodster it works great: 1
not true bypass: -1
overall rating 9
UTILIZATION
The edition is a pleasure!
the manual is not it little more clear and very detailed.
in ten minutes you can handle the beast without difficulties!
it is an old model and all the buttons knobs and dials work parfaitemet!
Nothing to say: 10
SOUND QUALITY
I have owned this multi between 1996 and 1999 and then I sold it.
since I had a g-major ... then yesterday (2008) for € 80 I bought from qqn on AF nostalgia.
I'm going home lighter, repot the doc and the hack beast, I plug in my patchmate (looper / switcher noon) and I begin to compare with the g-major and then in true bypass:
it compresses slightly compared to the g-major, it sounds no one (but really nothing and it to be severe) over the digital g-major, however false in true bypass (no effect, but multi Inrush) it is much more transparent than the g-major.
Finally, and this is the most important, the quality is amazing effects! such as chorus / flanger / spaced and delays.
finally he has not aged badly at all compared to products "all public" today.
I asked a verdict announced illico to relist my g-major (which is a good cross by the way)
I think, beyond the stories very subjective taste: for the price where you can find it used, it is much more interesting that many products "great service"
you must love the sound "80 years" because it is really mind ... I personally am rather very modern sound, but even why it is very interesting!
for me (in terms of price or I bought it: the price of a pedal boss) is the best value prices FUNCTIONALITIES time.
I put 10 more without even thinking
OVERALL OPINION
Small detail that parrait insignificant but has a huge importance:
it is very robust. I have my own mug yesterday occasion (in 2008) and everything works to perfection! not a single problem to report.
I am excited and already I can not part with it!
9 and 10 and 10 if we add the strength it's going to make 10 in total score!
