I bought my zoom 1010 from this guy who had absolutely no clue as to how to use it.I borrowed it for a day and figured the whole thing out......i bought it for a mere 120us$$(Indian Rs6000).......it's definitely worth the money:) I bought it coz i didnt have an effects pedal.

I acquired the 1010 about 6 months back and since then there has not been a dull moment with the guitar.....the kind of fine adjustments that can be made in the zoom 1010 coupled by the cost and fine look makes it a semipro's dream come true.It has all the basic effects like flange,chorus etc.....but the level of variation that can be made in each of the effects is phenomenal.It has 8 basic amp distortion's which can also be simulated....so an overall of 16 distortion's.It also includes in its list of effects a compressor, pedal wah input, delay, hall, room and an amazing equalizer with presence control.
There are 30 presets and 12 user defined channels in the zoom 1010.the zoom 1010 is a must-have for someone looking for quality and diversity in music.

Probably, the only fault with the unit is relatively less compression in comparison to the zoom 505 and zoom 3030.....and ofcourse a lack of autowah......that effect kicksass.....apart from that,it's cool:)

The quality of sound from the zoom 1010 is far better than the zoom 505 and the cleanest of tones can be achieved.i've got some patches which come as close as possible to some of the stuff played by steve vai(except for the sustainence).
The construction is no big deal.....it's the sound which matters......and the sound's great:)

The bottom line is that it is an amazing unit for the price you pay.........if youre looking for something affordable and kickass, this is the one:)
