Well, we covered el cheapo processors pretty well in this thread viewtopic.php?f=3&t=160389 and I am reconsidering on what to go with after buying a Lexicon mpx g2.
The Lexicon g2 is actually pretty awesome, but I am learning I am not a fan of 4 cable method setups like this, and the G system. While I am starting to learn the operating system of the Lexicon, I much prefer the simplicity of my G major 2.
My plan now is to sell the mpxg2 (hit me up if you're interested), move my G major 2 over to my Mesa stereo rig, and go with a high quality rack processor to replace my GM2 in my stereo Diezel rig.
So... what are you're guys thoughts on the Gforce, Axe FX, eventide? Something else? At first I thought "I'll go with a G Force" since I like and am comfortable with the TC layout and operating system, but it seems even the Gmajor 2 rivals the G Force now since it's a lot newer and considerably cheaper. After reading some stuff online, it seems the G force is getting old and new units like the Axe FX are superior. How easy is the Axe to use and program? I am not interested in the amp modeling and would probably want to turn that stuff off or bypass completely and only use the effects, is this possible and easy to do? How about Eventide? Seems though some of their stuff is really expensive though.
What would you go with? I'm looking for a high quality unit that is easy to use and program to match the caliber of my Diezel rig.
