What a nifty old relic. I wish the QX5FD's notion of "Step Sequencing" was more common.

Oddly enough, the 8-string has been easier to get used to than the 7-string I traded in for it. I almost settled for a lesser model but this one has EMG's and the binding looks classy. I really enjoy playing this in my metal band Crushing Complex. It kind of goes out of tune a lot but I probably just need to tighten a few screws.

This is a fun way to add a bit of weirdness to almost anything. I've even used it on vocals.

They're no longer my first "go-to" by any means, but I still use mda Detune quite a bit.

I love this thing. Realtime graphical frequency content display, scale knob... very useable.

One knob takes care of lo-pass & hi-pass. I like it. However I wish the sweep freq went a little further.

This thing is simple and free and I think it sounds really good for some reason. It's a "Baxandall Simulation Equalizer," whatever that means, "similar to the tone control of hi-fi systems." (from website). and the price is right for a low budget tweaker like me.

Sounds good, lots of controllability. Cool looking interface is always a bonus.

Yeah, fun way to make a pretend vinyl record. I made a whole album of acoustic blues and roughed it up and pretended it was recorded in 1935. Warp mode sometimes unavailable for some reason.

Gnarly. Rough it up! Just do it. Beware: Phat mode brings in a bit too much ugly when cranked to 100%.

T-Racks is fun, I like all the emulations and whatnot. They seem a little too "transparent" which is actually a good thing, I guess. They had a big sale a while back so I stocked up on some of the vintage stuff. Which was educational and makes me want to check out some of the real hardware someday! The standalone program is extremely buggy, however, so use the modules as individual plugins instead.

Ableton is enabling me to do a bunch of amazing stuff I wish I'd been able to do for a long time now. Like All the modulation, customizing effects racks and macro controls, etc. There are a few frustrating things here and there, like why is there no "No Triplet" button available in the arpeggiator? Many oversights like these will probably delay me from paying for the more advanced versions since I'm on such a tight budget. But I'm really super glad I'm using Ableton finally.

Sometimes Ableton stops responding to it. Other than that, it's great. I use it in the studio but I'd have to test it more thoroughly before trusting it for a live situation.

Fun Mystical Emotional Magic Sound. The audience always loves this thing.

The reason I bought this is because the built-in expression pedal is assignable to a variety of choices of destination effect, whereas many other effect pedals by other companies do not offer that. Also affordable.

Too many buttons, weird to get used to programming because sometimes this button is used for scrolling, sometimes it's a different button, etc. Other than that, I like everything about it.

Great Sound, Great Idea, I Wish It Used Batteries. I'll probably never get rid of it unless I stop using iPhones.
