They call this a 'budget' multi, but in truth, it's just plain great for the price.
Amps/cabs are varied and all are usable depending on taste and style and adding more IR's is easy enough.
Every effect has a blend, so no losing any low end when you don't want it to. Plenty of preset slots.
The looper is useful and has enough varied rhythms to keep you improvising for a while. Even more useful is that you can add your own (drum)tracks onto an SD card and play along with it. Perfect for preparing for band rehearsals.
There are a few minor cons you may want to consider:
- The foot switches are relatively noisy. All newer zoom product seems to suffer from this. My MS-60B+ has the same type of switch and is just as loud. It not loud enough for the audience to hear, but you will.
- The UI takes some getting used to. Using the 'edit all' is really the only one you need when you're building your patch. Ignore the rest. The free PC software makes up for a lot of minor annoyances within the UI of the device itself. Creating sounds is much easier this way. Editing is easy enough on both. Just click/tap the effect and change. Preset ordering using the PC software is super easy, but less so on the device itself.
- Changing modes between board, patch and rhythm mode can be a bit of a tapdance. Personally, I almost exclusively work in patch mode for my cover band, but change to board mode when playing my own music. Changing modes in between songs, while possible, is not something I'd recommend unless you really have to.
TL;DR:
Great device if you can get past a few minor UI inconveniences.
