At first I really did not like this pedal but after doing some tweaking and getting more comfortable with it, I'm now very very happy with it. The sounds are great and it really is very easy to use. I have used it on 1 gig so far and it was very easy to change modulation and settings between songs using my iPad. This unit is very sturdy and each type of effect has its own color with the exception of compression and distortion which may be confusing at first. Just like any other multi effects pedal, there are immediately use able presets and presets that will have you scratching your head and asking why??? However, you can adjust any preset to your liking and save it.

I was looking for something that I could run a 4 cable method with that wouldn't rob my amp's tone, but rather enhance it. I was thinking of getting a Boss GT100, Line 6 M13 or a Line 6 POD HD500X. I went with this because it was easier to use than the Line 6 POD HD500X or the Boss GT100, offered more than the M13 and is operated by a simple Android device. I like to keep my signal chain simple so for a 4 cable method I didn't need a ton of effects in a certain order. I don't like spending hours tweaking for the right tones either so this unit offers me the best of both worlds. I can use it for gigging or jamming with a live band, home practice and even I can go to Line 6's online library to find the tones I'm looking for if I can't can then on my amp. I was able to set up a great personal lead, rhythm and clean tone for my own original material and get tones for cover songs within seconds by using the Line 6 online tone library. If I have to say there are any cons they would be if you don't have an Android device this unit won't be nearly as easy to use and you can't access the Line 6 tone library. A lot of people say the screen display is too small, if you're using the Android app I don't see that being an issue, if not then it would be. Your signal chain is limited if you're using the 4 cable method, you can run 2 stomp boxes before or after the FX loop then you only have delay and reverb. There's a compression right after the amp, but you can't assign it in front of the amp so you'll have to use another stomp box compression if you want it before the preamp. The EQ is a pain in the butt to use and requires a lot of trial and error. What I do is run a separate EQ in the FX loops instead. The noise gate isn't too bad. It's not the best, but if set right it will get the job done. The some of the cab model are good and some sound bad, but again you'll have to find what work for you. If you want a unit that's easy to use through a modern Android device and you keep a simple FX loops this is it , it's great in my opinion. If you are very particular about your tone and want a FX loop that you can assign anything anywhere than go with the Line 6 POD HD500X or the Boss GT100.
