... Sure and eq can be quite useful. I mean even if you change the amp one day you can use it as a boost pedal or as solo level/tone increase on the send/return. |

They look interesting but they 'street' at $250.00.
Their competition, at least for me, will be both my TC and Strymon pedals. The TC stuff is $100 cheaper with equal or better sound quality and most of the Strymon gear is only $50 more with infinitely better sound quality, better build quality not too mention super deep multi-function knob/switch options. Yes, the Boss gives you 4 presets, though with an external switch, the Strymon gear allows for 2. Depending on which Strymon pedal - sometimes 3 presets. The TC stuff boasts the Tone Print feature which I employ all the time. A lot of Boss pedals are cool but little of what they've made that's over $100 has ever really sounded like it's worth more than a hundred dollars. Maybe the DC-2 because of how unique it is.

I REALLY like their slogan. Simply sophisticated. You don't see many this clever nowadays. Seems like one of each would be enough for a complete pedalboard, but then isn't Kemper a better substitution since I presume these are all digital? Boss probably went towards the mainstream trends but I feel they are running out of ideas (you can't design new pedals because there isn't an infinite amount of possibilities. I see that after this announcement and the Waza reissues they launched recently. They could start developing tube-powered stompboxes though. Personally, I only find the EQ interesting but I'll try out GE-7 before moving on to larger stuff. I hear there are a few nice rack eq units, so there's a lot to choose from. mm I think that Kemper must be a better option since you have everything in one, but the price is very different. If someones asks me to invest the same amount of money on these type of digital pedals or go for a Kemper (or Fractal), I would definitely go for the second option. Even more, now that Fractal is releasing a new smaller version. -------------------- My lessons

They're basically breaking apart the gt1000 algo's similar to line6 with their digital fx. Only the OD200 differs a bit, seems to be a semi-analog device

They sound pretty good but as Todd says, "all the decent multi-fx units sound that good now". And the high end ones sound better.
If you like pedals, don't mind spending $50 more and want absolutely stellar tone - do yourself a favor and go the Eventide, Strymon and Source Audio route. If you dig the weird stuff - Earthquaker Devices. Unless you need money you won't sell them because so far, no multifx, modeler or profiler does time based effects this good (yet).
