Ease of Use : 9
Once you know the deal, Programming is easy. The manual explains it all. Editing-same.... The foot-wah controller is a good feature to control one parameter on any effect. Easier to use than the EMP100 Actual programming takes little time at all and is very direct and real-time.

Sound Quality : 8
The gap between switching patches is embarrassingly long, or would be in a live situation (half a second) Chorus is a bit weak but when up full makes a cool swoopy stereophonic noise. The Touch-wah is heaven but thee distortions are to cheesy, like a Boss pedal and noisy (but thats just me). Delays are OK, The Amp simulator is cool for tube/stack/combo try-hards.

Reliability : 9
Apart from the small gap when changing sound patches, the pedal is incredibly reliable as a foot controlled multi effects. It is virtually indestructible.

Customer Support : No Opinion
N/A but replacement memory battery is easily available according to the Manual

Overall Rating : No Opinion
Never seen one elsewhere or heard of someone who has seen one, and I got it as a store-worn model, so I would buy it again. The T-wah is dreamy and unparalleled. The sounds don't sound at all "processed" as most multi effects do.
