To GT-10 users:
How good is the board? I know I have to check it for myself, but would just like to hear what you think.
It kills! Seriously, I never bothered buying a Pedalboard before, I was more of a Stomp-box fan, but this baby just got it all. Some say the POD units are better for studio and homerecording, but I've yet to find something the GT-10 can't do, besides obvious stuff like polyphonal synthesizing.
Some ppl also clame that high-gain sounds either have "Fizz" (a word to describe the brittly sound you get from CPU amp-modelling) or a cocked-Wah sound (a nasal sound you get from leaving a wah on) but both of these problems are easily solved via the several EQ functions.
What's important is, that you shouldn't expect the amp-models like Rectifier or other high-gain amps to sound like real tubes crancked-up to the max. Instead of using just an amp-model with full amp-distortion, you get a much better result if you put the amp-model's distortion to a more modest level, but put a distortion (also out of the board) in front of it. The resulting distortion will sound much better.
But anyway, as far as FX and overall versatility go, there's nothing the GT-10 can't do. But 2 seperate channels, 2 FX blocks with over 30 FX each, 8 Assign-parameters, global settings, 2 Ctl pedals and a dual-function Exp-pedal are easy to learn but hard to master.
But the board has a sheer endless potential for creative and fun sounds.
I'll happily provide more info, but I don't have my board here with me, so I cannot double-check things...
