Digitech GNX4
Posted: 3 Jun 2009 9:31 am
I have a custom rack to make the GNX4 accessible at the same hight as the guitar off my right side for making mid song patch changes and the StroboRack visible. I feel I can get a Don Helms tone, a Norm Hamlet / Ralph Mooney tone and a more conventional modern tone with the 3-way parametric EQ plus with all the distortions and amp modeling. Using my second pickup I can get a good pedal dobro (for under $20,000), a David Lindley crunchy lap steel and a good Duane Allman Les Paul slide tone. I can a get good Billy Gibbons tone with all the harmonics with the built in Randy Rhodes patch. The only downside is that the volume pedal on the GNX4. I have yet to find a midi volume pedal that feels and sounds as good as my old analog '78 Goodrich. So the output of the GNX4 feeds the volume pedal and then back into the TC G Major and on to the amps so I can have a post fader send for reverbs, no reverb or use the GNX for prefader reverbs all midi patch controllable. All this plus it's in STEREO! Talk about Leslie(when you change speeds it ramps up), chorus and delays. Needless to say I'm very happy with the rig. Oh and once in a while I try to make this cheeseslicer sound just like a plain ol' steel guitar!
