MGR/Steve « Johnson J-Station »
Published on 12/30/01 at 15:00I purchased from Musician's Friend magazine, and paid 150 bucks for it. I needed something for direct recording into my computer for my guitar students as well as scratch tracks for my band.
Some of the distortions as well as the cleans are pretty darn good with some tweaking. I really suggest getting the software for your computer to do the tweaking.
I don't think it's as versatile as they would like you to think. Many of the sounds are still quite processed, but what do you expect for 150 bucks?
The unit is sturdy although not quite as hardcore as the POD.
I recommend this unit for a few distortions and a couple of clean sounds. Not a ton of effects, but enough to utilize the unit. More high end than to POD for those of us who have lost that over the years. And you can't go wrong with the price. Again, in my opinion, better used for computer tweaking and recording than for live use. Not really intended for that anyway, I have to think.
