Multi FX with a wide range of effects available (reverb, flanger, compressor .......).
Model with XLR input and output, plus SPDIF (which allows you to use it as an external converter!!!).
Classic 19" 1U rack

UTILIZATION

Extremely easy to use, very comprehensive 200+ page manual (which is not common for this type of gear).
Very easy editing with a drop-down menu (one edit button per channel).

SOUND QUALITY

Marvelous reverb (the renowned TC), which has become a favorite in the audio world.
I use it live and to mix in my home studio.

OVERALL OPINION

I bought it new in 2004 (for over $900 all the same...)
Unbeatable value for money, far beyond the poor quality of entry-level multi-effects (Behringer, Lexicon, Alesis...)
I would buy it again even today!!! Nothing comes close to it, in my view.
