Simply Awesome

I Love it. I am only getting started into guitar, but having been doing the midi and computer musick stuff so long, this unit is a dream for the guitar and a mod freak. It seems to have no end of an ability to be tweaked and though the Yamaha guys didi not do so well at supporting this unit with their web site, I am still thrilled with it as I can do my own tweaking. I was able to get all the sounds I wanted and still more. THe ability to tweak a set and save it, then tweak some more and move the sets back and forth from the pc make this a sound modder's dream package. For playing it has the limitation of having only the three switches, but set up right with some fore thought that can be enough. It has a headphone jack so you do not need your amp for practice and the signal can be sent out to anything. For the price, get this multi-switch. It can be daisy chained and will always be useful.

One Great Effects Processor

I bought this about a year ago and it truly is a great buy. you can edit the effects that come with it or update patches from the site. The tone is great, but there's no expression pedal like most processors have, so if you want to get expressionate just go get a wah pedal and run the effect processor through it, the magic stomp is virtually glitch free...great buy!!!!!

At this price, this thing is amazing. The reverbs and delays are outstanding. I'm using one for live vocals and one for harp effects. I especially appreciate the anti-feedback feature for harp. I have a Magicstomp 1 and this thing is so much better. The only limitation is that you cannot combine all effects as you'd like, but rather have to stick with the combos that they offer. Nevertheless, excellent quality!

Beware! Severe Programming Limitations

While the factory presets are exaggerated demos, that's true of every multieffect unit I've ever heard. The real problem is that, incredibly, you cannot program new patches from scratch, but only modify the existing ones, and only to very limited extents. Adding or completely removing effects from these patches is usually not possible, even with the software! This is an unbelievably lame way of rigging a device with the Magicstop's wide range of effects, and apparently explains its unpopularity and subsequent demise.

Does some things well, others poorly - good value

Given the programmability of this as a high quality reverb/echo/chorus/compressor/eq I find it to be a surprisingly powerful tool in a strange little package for a very nice price. I was very disappointed with the guitar amp sims / distortions - so I don't use them. With a Tech 21 TriAC in front of the Magicstomp I am getting some great results for guitar, and this box is still a great value when used for only what it is good at. I don't like the presets, I think you need to learn to set it up yourself - however I find this true with most digital effects.
