«  Convenient and easy to use »

I use it for less than a month using the time of writing.
I have not tested any other looper / switcher before twelve o'clock, there were not too many choices in this format anyway, the only one I spotted was gcx voodoo lab that is just a little more expensive.

What I like most is the rather simple programming of the machine, it just allows me to control my overdrive and distortion pedals (soon a compressor and clean boost) and therefore just need to control program change.
To initialize the device-this says it takes time to read the manual in English only (but not very hard to understand), otherwise you will struggle! After this step you just need to select the loops you want to activate this program change and press hop store and it's good!
I also like the side that gcx less sober, you know when this loop is active far.
The switcher in any case does not color the sound and generates no noise at all so good on this side!

What I do not like against it by the AC adapter (the same as the Voodoo Lab GCX) weighs his weight and also take up space on my rack drawer ... therefore obliged to fix it with the Velcro in a corner of the tray rack.
Then there's all the cables to buy back because you have to buy the jack cables to connect the pedals to the loops but also need jack cables to connect each loop them ... so you have a budget for that also ...
Therefore prefer solderless cables to have the least possible length of cable, which will prevent you from damaging your sound and allow you to properly organize your rack.

I think the price / quality ratio is very good and I certainly would do this choice!
