What are the effects or types of effects available?
Noise Gate, EQ, Compressor, Modulation, Pitch, Delay, Reverb, Filter

Are they edited? Via a Mac / PC editor?
Each effect can be edited via PC / Mac or directly on the device

What technology is used?
Digital

What is the connection?
MIDI IN, OUT and THRU, input and output mono or stereo

UTILIZATION

The general configuration is it simple?
Well, we still have a little time to configure, including global and MIDI settings when you are not too familiar in there (which was my case with purchase).
But using manual rather well on this side after some settings requires some tests in the preamp or amp head used (parallel effects loop or in series in particular)

The manual is clear and sufficient?
The manual is very well

Editing sounds and effects is it easy?
Yes, very simple!
Just go to the section that contains the effect changed and after simply circulate in the menu and change each setting with the small wheel and then it only remains to record by pressing 2 times the button store, so very simple.

SOUND QUALITY

The effects are they effective, responsive and realistic enough?
On this side I have not had to complain, very good digital effects including reverb everything, delay, modulation.

Which instruments do you use?
I use an ESP Horizon III, an Ibanez RG and Sebaston.
The G Major is plugged into the effects loop of an ENGL Invader

Which ones do you prefer, you hate?
There are no effects that I did not like but I'm pretty happy with the reverb, delay and modulation.
The also appreciate the Noise Gate, EQ and compressor that I use on many presets.

OVERALL OPINION

How long have you use it?
I use it for more than a year

Have you tried many other models before buying it?
Not, in any case there was no real equivalent in this price range except for a rack rack effect Rocktron has not really good press

What is the particular feature you like best and least?
The editing via PC, because it takes a midi / usb cable and coincidentally that I took did not work with the G Major II ... (some MIDI / USB cable apparently compatible)
I do not understand that TC Electronic has not had the presence of mind to a direct USB connection ...

How would you rate the quality / price?
Very good! Allows for full editable quality effects that can be controlled via midi.

With experience, you do again this choice?
Certainly, unless a new version came out
