«  Versatile as hell! »

Published on 02/10/12 at 02:37
Value For Money : Excellent
Amp simulation, hp's, many effects. (See the site zoom)

A rudimentary drum machine (but really more fun than a metronome, it also has-)

A small looper damn good that syncs to the BAR.

A tuner with some specific tuning options (open, DAGDAD ...)

Connectivity is comprehensive for the price (XLR, Jack, USB).

Special mention for food that can be chosen by: battery, USB and supplied transformer.

UTILIZATION

Operation is ultra-simple for a while a box that provides a max function.
Publishing is a feast; live: on the pedal (it's the same thing on three dedicated pedals); home via free downloadable software: a mouse too simple ...
We can fix everything at home in computer music, produce patches on his computer. Save its setting to "drag and drop" and completely reconfigure his foot in two seconds.
It there's even some interesting patch lying around on the net for free download.

Depending live still remember the looper and the BAR, it IS meant to repeat at home to manage because it resembles the quick feet of Fred Astaire.

I used it some day, before opening the users manual, just to reassure myself of having nothing to forget. This was the case.

SOUND QUALITY

Sound is subjective and personal, for my part I am pleased, we listen very little to the side "digital electronics" device. Effects, simus are clean and well restored.
Relatively speaking with other materials more expensive, this is a very good value for money.

OVERALL OPINION

This is a very versatile, it does not necessarily used in the same way at home and outside:

at home I plug my guitar and I have everything: effects, simulation, metronome (or BAR), tuner, looper for Jamer, audio interface model for little ...

Can place and everything ready.
Ditto for an ox anywhere he would like in the cover of the guitar, he walks to stack my Vox DA20 also: this is Royal.

live: I put it in my pedalboard and I have three more pedal.

I would do this choice, obviously, I personally have bought new roro 155, divide the price by me all these functions ... NO PHOTO!

NB: Zoom follows the updated product, we are notified of new firmware when available. They add features or remove bugs (although personal, not seen a bug).
