UTILIZATION
Easy setup. Very clear manual. Editing sounds is very easy. Only major problem: the controls are not reliable after a while. That's why TC Electronic launched a new version equipped with standard controls.
SOUND QUALITY
Very good effects: TC Electronic always made high-quality effects. No comments. They are excellent.
OVERALL OPINION
I've been using it for nine years. You can really assess the quality of a product after many years of use.
In spite of its high quality, the G Major has the following cons:
The controls are not very practical to edit parameters: the values spring and you'll have to turn back the controls to find the right value! Grade: 0/20!
After nine years of use the display has started to show some faults. It gets on and off, and on, etc. It also freezes... And it's a huge problem since the display is needed for all settings.
I give it 5/10 because the sound quality and the effects are great. But it's not acceptable that a device made for on stage applications has such problems...
How long will the life of the G Major 2 be? It's too early to answer the question. It's a pity that the manufacturer didn't equip the new version with a USB connector... Bad!
