"I use this in conjunction with a Boss GT8 floor effects unit. I am still using the Boss GT8 for studio and stage work: it's most especially handy for when I work in Europe as I have the unit programmed for all my favourite sounds. Of course, as we are never sure which amplifiers we will be given at any one gig, believe me it is a very useful tool as at least I get to keep my own sounds regardless of what type or make of amplifier."

"As I've mentioned many times before, those clever people at Roland just keep coming up with more and more goodies, and this time I have added to my arsenal: the Roland DR880, which enables me to have some bass and drum backing for when I'm doing solo gigs. The great thing about this is that I don't have any arguments from crazy drummers and argumentative bass players! Only kidding, lads - come back all is forgiven! Again thanks to Roland, cheers guys - good work!"
