I have personally tested almost all new digitech models personally (got a shop in denmark street selling digitech stuff), though not as thorough as you could get (the shop keeper give the 'eye' after about 15 minutes). The modelling is ok and quite some good high gains models. the artist series is crap to my personal liking(sound horrible). the name implies digital but you can get good tones out of it. still, i played through a headphones thus i dont know how it will react to amps or direct PA. i heard you can get more parameters to tweak for amp and cabs modelling.


Still, I reccomend pod xt live again. they have a new version 3 update which gives you more free amp model! yay...

Hehe coz I just get to find out

I don't want to limit myself just from 1 or 2 or even 3...

Since I am not a rich persons.. I can only choose 1 and sacrifice the others.. so I hope to make a good choice of it... and even given the opportunity to test it myself.. I would still love to understand more of these babies.. tongue.gif
hehe I hope you guys don't mind  blush.gif
sometimes maybe not in term of sound but oso about others which I may not being able to read or find out.. hehehe so u guys' words can mean alot to me and also the fellow musicians here.. biggrin.gif

hopefully all these advices, recommendation and opinions will help our fellow musicians if they happened to have the same dilemma as me.

I just heard about GNX3 from a friend.. so juz would like to know mroe although i am reading reviews online at the same time. juz wish to know more..

thx smile.gif

Seriously, go for the GT-8. There may not be upgrades, etc. like the XT Live, but the fact that it has its own effects loop means you can "upgrade" with new pedals etc... maybe the sansamp like gapnap et al say.

And many people have been selling and are selling GT-8 second hand, so you may want to keep an eye out for it...

And if the RM1.9k is in reference to GT-8, no way... that is way way overpriced...

Yeah... I juz got the latest price from Swee Lee.. the best price is S$D 787.50... Convert back to RM is far more expensive..... Ish.. sad...

Some ppl selling their GT8 but the price isn't fit the price of the 2nd hand. No offence to them but RM1400 for most of the 2nd hand used over 1 year and yet a new one just costs RM1600. I understand they bought it much higher than RM1600 during that time but everthing also have to follow market price.

Now I am just biting my luck and hoping to find any shop have any stock left on the GT-8. Seems they are all out of stock. Short of Supply

1550 new??? dude... where u got the price from??? brows.gif
But as I know... they are earning on percentage... and most of them usually give customer a 15% discount....
Maybe their earning is only 5% after the discount

hmm.gif

Last time could get for RM1500 new... I think Bents also was selling around that price. And it wasn't old stock either because the GT-8 came with the latest firmware version (1.03 at that time)...

Price difference could be because our distributor here got a better deal than the one in Singapore...

they dun have

I called them up oredi

WORST news is.....he told me... Estimated 2 Months needed for the new batch of stocks

Have a question to ask

if I buy from ebay... U.S stuffs
Can I use it here? coz their AC is 110v and Malaysia uses 220V...

so it is just only changing the adapter or.. there is anything can direct set on the effects?

it's just the adapter. The frequency is also different if i'm not mistaken, but 10 Hz difference should cause any big difference. If anything affects the effects, you can try to get a stabiliser for your power supply, the same type you use for your computer.

The PODxt LIVE is RM1,500.
The list price is RM1,800, but you can bargain till around RM1,500~1,550.

What is troubling your decision anyway? Is it the tone of them? Or other reasons?
