Ease of Use
:
7
It took a couple of hours and sessions to really get the most user control out of the unit, but once understood, it now works great for many tasks and tones. I just love it, and use it on everything... (Kinda like the BBE Sonic Maximizer...)
Sound Quality

Running vocals, clean and distorted guitars, and MIDI synth signals through this unit into small Ramsa PA system. It's always clean and 3 dimentional, and adds a lush, warm overtone to everything that I apply it to. Has the ability to run straight without reverb, (Simple tube tone), or a multitude of room effects with alot of control over room size and quantity. And...it's STEREO TOO!
Reliability

So far, it fires up whenever I want it to, so there's no problem there...
Customer Support

Bought unit as a scratch and dent from MF about a year ago...(Dec. '01) and it was in mint condition except missing a control knob. The gentleman at Accutronics, Bill Wenzloff, sent me a small box FULL of new knobs, AT NO COST!!! I think they are the greatest.
Overall Rating

I don't believe these units are currently in production, but mine came with good manual, and great support. I would prolly cry like a baby if it were stolen, then track the jerk down and open the proverbial can of whoop ass on him, and make him eat a cup or two...
