Pdalier numrique multi-effects.
Many effects: boost, compressor, insulator, distortion, equalizer, modulation (chorus, phaser, wah, pitch etc. ...), reverb, cabinet simulation, and Noise Gate Intgr. Let us add that a sampler, a good flop and a rhythm pattern mtronome! It is trs trs complete.
60 user programmable presets + 60 presets wish plants (not good on the other hand, given the capabilities of the machine!)
1 headphone output, 2 outputs Stereo amp effects, auxiliary input, from a guitar.

UTILIZATION

In beginners, it will open a little manual to understand how to exploit all the background effect, but it remains pdalier trs simple as a whole.
The edition of the patches is quite fast (2min when used)
The manual is explicit trs, ds there is a problem, there are rponse, but all the same, fortunately it is because sometimes the ... it turns itself into the galre!

SOUND QUALITY

The effects are effective and of good quality for the numrique.
I use a Fender transistor amp and all lamp FM212R Sovtek MIG-50.
The distos are many, but not be appropriate forcment everyone (I buy a personal distortion pedals in part). It gnre quite a few blows.

Otherwise, you can make a good use for trs effects of boost, compression, modulation, reverb, sampler, drum pattern. For the price, it's okay trs.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 8months now, we apprciera the many opportunities it offers.
He did not blush before a Boss ME-50, I personally find suprieur. This is the direct descendant of the GFX-8, which is comparable to the Boss GT-6.
It's good stuff, and remind that has nothing to do with products that have made the wrong reputable brand (505 Zoom & co).

To see now replace her, the new multi-purpose G7, which looks terrible! (G9.2tt or if you have the budget)
Boss and Vox s'inquiter can begin!
