UTILIZATION

Simple setup in my opinion, the manual is in French. Of course I have read for many things, but I think gloablement effects are relatively simple to edit.

Personally I bought mine used, it was purchased new in 2004, the beast has 7 years already. As I read in other reviews, the knobs are fragile, the fact is, they lack a little precision, but it does not bother me so far in my case. Just hoping it does not worsen. I let it gently in a flight case rack closed when I leave I do not use it, I think it's better to do.

SOUND QUALITY

Well I have not tried everything but for my part:
- The delays and reverbs are impressive;
- The pitch, Octavers very correct too;
- The flanger, phaser, are pretty mediocre. By using a very limited and discrete we know get good results but it makes the sound very metallic. That said there are so many adjustments to make it may be possible to reduce this unpleasant effect. But I have yet to find :-)

I have not tried the whammy, EQ, chorus or the compressor.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had a good month, I'm happy with my choice.

The pros:
- The delays and reverbs
- Easy to use (control + presets pm)
- Many possible settings
- Price

The -:
- The phaser / flanger
- Fragile knobs (flight case + suggested)

Used for 200 € with the flight case, I'm very glad I bought it while waiting to be rich to buy a G-Force
