Multi-Effects - Floorboards

The Boss GT-10 is a great floorboard at an excellent price. The sound and the effects delivered from the GT-10 are of high quality, but first of all the Boss masterpiece is the flexibility of this multi-effect. Parallel Chain is a great function.

The GT-10 has been a great success for Boss. The GT-100 is the heir of the GT-10 and introduces some new functions that extend the floorboard flexibility. For instance, the new version of the COSM technology.

340 patches, 140 for the user and 200 preset. Each patch can be modified in real-time via the pedals and the EZ Edit function make the editing of the effects easy and fast. The Send & Return is a good added value.

The GT-5 provides 28 different effects, the COSM technology for the emulation of guitar amplifiers, speakers configuration, mic placement and so on. You can use up to 13 effects simultaneously.

The GT-6 has been designed for a professional use, so this floorboard provides a large number of effects programs. 340 patches: 140 for the user and 200 presets. In addition there are 30 amp models.

The GT-8 provides all the necessary in order to play the electric guitar like a professional. The quality of the sound is good and the COSM technology with two channels allows a total flexibility.

The ME-20 provides the most used effects for guitar: Overdrive, Distortion, Phaser, Flanger, Delay, Tremolo, Rotary and Chorus. This Boss floorboard sounds well, it is very easy to use and the knobs allow a fast modification of the effects in realtime.

The ME-25 provides a lot of interesting features. One of these is the USB connection. Thanks to this feature, the ME-25 can be used also as an audio interface. The Cakewalk Sonar 8.5 LE software is included.

The ME-50 is a pure multi-effect but easy to use like a stompbox. Each effect provides all the necessary to dial in the best sound. Moreover, a compressor, a noise suppressor and a built-in tuner. Price is excellent.

The ME-70 is fast and easy to use, like a pedal and each parameter owns his dedicated knob. The sound delivered from this floorboard is rather good and the Speaker Emulator works well.

The iPB-10 is a new concept of floorboard. This Digitech product works in conjunction with the iPad and allows the creation of an unlimited number of virtual pedalboards.

With the 6 knobs on the front panel settings are easy and fast. The manual of the RP355 is complete and exhaustive about all the functions of the floorboard, but there are no information for the update of the firmware.

The RP500 is a very good Digitech floorboard at an excellent price. Four outputs, 1/4" and XLR, two inputs, for guitar and a player, many quality effects and a large number of emulations.

The RP55 provides 20 effects that can be used 8 at once. In addition this Digitech multi-effects is equipped with a compressor, a noise gate and an equalizator. 80 patches: 40 preset and 40 user.

Digitech, with the RP90, made a good job. This multi-effects can be a valid solution for a beginner that wants a complete device at a good price. 100 patches, a drum machine with 40 patterns and the Digitech quality.

The heart of this floorboard is the NDT (Nova Drive Technology), the analog circuit. The Nova System produces really a great sound and with 30 factory presets and 60 programmable presets turns out very flexible.

The A2 is an excellent multi-effects for the acoustic guitar. 24-bit and 96kHz, the 32-bit ZFX-3 chip and an advanced technology in emulation produce a valid sound and allow a good flexibility.

Zoom, with the G2, made a flexible multi-effect, with nine modules for the effects, and an excellent audio quality. My opinion, considering the low price, is that the Zoom G2 is a great product.

Thanks to the USB connection the user can record directly on a PC without any delay. The software Edit & Share allows the creation of new patches, that can be manually modified with a visual instrument.

13 amplifiers, 94 stompboxes and 100 effects. A multi-effects, an amp simulator and an audio interface. A looper, a drum machine and a tuner. Two softwares: Steinberg Sequel LE and Edit&Share.

An excellent floorboard at a very good price. The G7.1ut features a 12AX7 tube for the sound generation and a modern 32-bit chip for the effects, the ZFX-3. 92 effects organized in 9 modules and 80 preset patches.

The Zoom G9.2tt is an excellent multi-effect. The two 12AX7 tubes work very well and generate a great tone, with all the typical qualities of the tube sound and all functions through an high quality chip.
