Feature:
Should come with a power supply. Making your own patches is quite difficult.

Quality:
After a couple of months I noticed a rattling coming from inside the case - opened it up and one of the screws holding the PC board had come loose and was rattling around in the case - ridiculous. Re-installed all the screws with Lok-Tite

Value:
Buy separate effects - the Boss ones are quite good, and the Behringers are an amazing deal. Or get a better multi-effects pedal.

Desirability:
I haven't used this in years. I really should put it on eBay.

Sound:
I have owned this pedal for almost 10 years. The sounds are just lame. Many of the presets outputs are at different levels, which makes it useless for live playing - you switch from one preset to another and your volume can vary by 50%.

Ease of Use:
I have given up on using this - bought a Korg AX3000B which is light years better and easier to use to boot, although it is about four times as big - and it came with a power supply.

Support:
Haven't used it.

Overall:
This thing simply did not live up to my expectations.

Feature:
most of the effects sound the same

Value:
It is the best bang for your buck@

Desirability:
It looks so great in pictures but it looks even better in the box

Sound:
most of the effects have a very muffled sound to them so you have to set everything just right to get it to go away.

Feature:
no power supply provided & on the bp200 the verification part of setting up the unit is a bit of a pain. It should automatically be pedal responsive to the units sounds output annd in bypass mode.

Quality:
tuning leds could be a bit more distinctive or have an led note display.Very roadworthy product.

Value:
yes

Desirability:
practical addition to my set up and sound.

Sound:
exceptional accuracy from the amp/cabinet sounds. With the option to model my own preset sounds I can make each song unique and even musos in the audience can't quite figure what is going on. he other band members love the sound too as it gives our band a sound/feel that is not easy to replicate.

Support:
Speaking to company reps they were fantastic.

Overall:
Would replace it with the same or upgraded model if one existed for bass.

Feature:
delay is good, wah is lame. chorus is shallow,octave divider is pretty good. Tuner can be a little jumpy untill you get used to it. Just hit the string ONCE with a good stroke, judge the reference about 1 second after you hit it.

Quality:
it is pretty solid. It has FAILED several times since I bought it,the dealer replaced the power pack and assured me that was the problem. (time will tell). I will not TRUST it for about another 3 to 6 months.

Value:
I think it is a little overpriced. its worth about a hundred bucks in my opinion.

Desirability:
I bought it because I needed a volume pedal and tuner. Seperately I would have paid about $ 60 for the ernie ball pedal and about 150 for a rack tuner. so I opted for this toy. looks and apperance had no influence on my decision.

Sound:
I use it mainly for the tuner and volume pedal. I was dissapointed with the chorus, it is too shallow. the delay is great. I edited two presets to give me a "solo" setting by adding more mids and highs and a little delay. the case is well built and solid. I do not use the amp or cab settings because they interfere with the EQ on my HARTKE 4000 head. Anyone who has a small amp or a practice amp might find these settings very usefull for geting a fuller sound out of what they are using. I have had SEVERAL occasions when the unit cut out and once the tuner froze up. My dealer said the problem was with the power supply, time will tell.

Support:
the local dealer quickly helped me when the unit froze up. have not contacted them myself.

Overall:
I will keep it untill if freezes up again. then I will probably "off it" on EBAY. I wish the lights on the tuner were either brighter or larger. I wish you could combine more than one effect at a time. there is some white noise output when you are not playing, if you are running high power (2x400 watts is what I use) you have to have to yank the vol. down between numbers or if your amp has a mute switch that will work too.

Feature:
the wah i liked but i was a little dissapointed with the fretless simulator, the reverb and amp models are also really good. shame you cant jump effects tho, and the scroll it to fast to stop with any accuracy. the tuner is also really jumpy and can be quite aggrovating when tuning in a hurry. there are also alot of gimicky effects ull never use in a band

Quality:
good for a multi effects pedal the fact that it is metal is also good cause you know it wont break. the expression pedal can creak sometimes which makes solos sound....wierd

Desirability:
looks pretty cool but doesn't have the sex appeal of having 5 or 6 pedals at your feet

Sound:
some of the sounds are quite good but you have to do some fiddling to get them really nice. alot of them sound like guitar effects which was quite dissapointing cause they dont suit the bass. i thought they could have done better

Support:
dont know i bought it in the US and i live in Australia so i dont think ill b using this bit

Overall:
good for what it is but i grew out of it quickly if i had my choice again id buy a row of seperate pedals. the best of the multi effects in the price range but its worth saving those pennies for a real pedal

wah pedal gets harder to press after a while, and one of the buttons doesnt click anymore

i got it

Sound:
nothing wrong with the sound

Support:
never had to call the company or anything

Overall:
small flaws, but great overall
