Poor mans AxeFx: 11Rack or GSP1101?

[Anonymous]

I've just got the GSP1101 to use at small or flyaway gigs so I can leave my rack at home.
It has a few major flaws...
The tuner on the dedicated foot controller is terrible and doesn't switch in or out instantly
When you first switch it on the volume pedal has to be rocked to get it to work for volume.
You also need a press each preset as there's an audible lag at first.
Once done the lag disappears... very weird.
Finally to get the best from it you need to download some cabinet IRs.
I still haven't fully understood how that aspect works or what is available online but the one I did load really improved the tone.

Great but not fully realised unit in my opinion.

Digitech stopped updating ages ago. The only reason it is still relevant is due to the MustBeBeta team. They are helping to keep the 1101 love alive. With that said I wish I would have kept mind and really learned how to use it.

These threads crack me up.
The OP says he wants either A, or B. Without fail the morons come out of the woodwork and tell him he wants C.

Sometimes people don't know C is an option and is much better than A or B....

Except when C is not an option ...

C is always an option if that is what you really want
