Yamaha MagicStomp II

The Magicstomp II includes all the effects of Magicstomp: these effects in a small box is extra, and then the effects are really good trs. The list of effects on Intgr http://www.magicstomp.com/eng/audiodemo/index.html
It is noted that other effects can be downloaded from the net and the official website http://www.magicstomp.com/ among others.

on the other hand, this time, big improvement over the original: all custom settings are ditables effects directly from the pedal, without necessarily going through a PC or Mac. But the change is always more comfortable paramtres by a computer.

The connection is always made by usb (besides, I must say in passing that there is still no drivers for Mac OSX and it is always necessary to use Mac OS9: shame!)

UTILIZATION

General configuration very simple: you plug and have fun with it now!

As explained above, the edition of the effects can be made directly on the pedal from now (compared to the Magicstomp 1, where it was mandatory to go through one of the computer to edit). But the edition of Live Effects Pedal necessarily to scroll through effects for the rules: it is more convenient to go through a computer

The manual is complete plutt

SOUND QUALITY

I personally am not a connoisseur effects because I'm not a guitarist and I did not used to using pedals moult, but use it with an electric violin, I am fun!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for one month and I like the simplicity of use and small size.
I also tried the Magicstomp Acoustic (designed for acoustic guitars ...), but I found this last a little too wise to have left an electric violin, both look for other sounds!
The report quality-numbers effect / price is clearly outside.
The lack of drivers OSX is a real shame

SOUND QUALITY

Then something else,
All effects modulation, reverb, delay are superb. I do not use distos because I have on my pedal board the bulk (OD2, Shredmaster, RAT2).
My chaining is:
(PSU'S CIOK)
JAGUAR (fender) => VOLUME -> RAT2 -> SHRED -> OD2 -> Nobels TRX -> Magicstomp -> DD3 => Peavey Classic 50. For now, it is happiness.
Note: I use my 90% Nobels TRX (tremolo) as a booster (super transparent to 65 Euros)

OVERALL OPINION

That's exactly what I was looking for less than 200euros. I wanted to have a DL4 (different config Delay) and different phaser, chorus. I never used the DL4, but Magicstomp provides millions of opportunities available in 3 switches (total 99 user memory is enough to make).

The negatives are no TAP tempo and expression pedal insert, with that we approach perfection.
