«  Terrible! »

Config and editing sounds very simple via the HD edict
very easy to use it is a treat, not against by the software,
I prefer not to think about it.
and everything is programmed need to touch the volume settings from the pod

I love the fact that it is under the feet have the opportunity to direct four pedals (comp, overdrive, modulation fx, delay ...) + the volume and wha!
And still below 4 switches to wander through the presets!
Indeed, there is nothing better!

Nothing to say about the effects everything is well thought of is upscale and beautiful reverbs and delay are
The loop 45 seconds is very nice just need to understand the functioning and it rolls after you can without

I use a lot of sounds and effects, I like when the sound is clean and not too busy and the result is stunning!
on the other hand do not use the factory presets but must spend time on the machine and presets from vacuum is the best means
So you'll understand a little time provide early
this machine mla demand management!
but what a joy to be able to operate directly on any preset compression, delay, a TS9 to boost a JCM 800 or a soldano for solo ...
can load 8 effect blocks EFIN and feels free to do whatever you want in these three overdrive 8 blocks, no limits!

In terms of style I play pure blues to albert king through the gary moore from hendrix, sometimes metal and also jazz!
A very good versatility

UTILIZATION

sounds are very clean and clear, the guitar fit perfectly into the mix and the bass is always delicious.
This is done to plug into a PA or speaker monitoring.
behind the connector is really complete

-In the studio I use on monitor speakers M-Audio BX8 D2 and it suits me perfectly.
The USB is used for recording because it also acts as a sound card
(In cubase sx3 for me and it was perfect)
In-concert live on the sound, and it is a treat
(Especially if it is a high quality sound)

SOUND QUALITY

I tried most simus market boss GT100 in eleven rack!
and it is this one that I prefer for realism and clarity to line 6 really an incredible effort from the beginning of the simulation
on the other hand I've ever tried fractals.

OVERALL OPINION

So you understand I'm satisfied, it is a surprising machine then
spend some time on it and lots of doors will open!
