TC G-major2 is a great rack multifx,as we all said:
-great effects,
-easy interface,
-better than G-major 1,
-very transparent for the price,
-in some situation can be an all in one solution
More expensive brands like Eventide,Lexicon,Bricasti..etc are:
-sounding of course better,
-complex interface and algorithm placing,
-almost no tonal coloration,
-no all in one solution,
-not so guitar oriented like tc stuff GM2.
Price is an indicator of the quality,but money not always can buy "tone" IMHO.
I will use my rhythm tone pure from the Herbert, a bit chorus on the clean and some delay on the lead tone.
Maybe some other effects for some special stuff, I want my sound with only one footstep, no pedalboard "stepping".
I am 24 hours into having a "one step setup" and am floored about it. So much easier to use. I am using a Herbert as my head, TC G major 2 for effects, and a ground control pro to control everything.
I just finished a few minutes ago getting some presets set up for when I step on button 1- I get clean with a little reverb, 2- hi gain crunch with no effects, 3- hi gain no effects, 4- mute on the herbert (to kill everything if I want too) 5- clean with reverb/chorus/delay, 6-hi gain reverb/delay/chorus.
As a side note to those using TC effects processors, what do you think of the on board noise gate? I am actually fairly impressed with it so far, is it really still worth using an ISP decimator?

This thing really seems to work perfect.
Is it that much better then the GM1, or just more FX ?
It´s 444,- Euro GM2 and 200,- Euro GM1 (used).
That´s what I´m thinking about...
It seems like adam uses a rotating encylclopedia of pedals on his tours some very subtle (like the mxr micro) and seems to change with every album, latest news he was using line 6 delay and modulation but I think he still is a boss fan. I could spend a months worth of income and still wouldnt even come close to being able to but a scratch on what that man does he is an effects junkie.

Good to hear! At first I thought it would be easy filling a 6 space rack but now between my Furman and GM2, I can't hardly think of anything else I need so far.
