I am your doctor of love!
So I have went deep in this lately and round and round to pick the best one for me. Thank you all who provided input and suggestions! As I see it - here is the deal:
The Line6 M9 - This is THE box for those of you who crave vintage pedals, and the ability to program-up a board of up to six pedals, as long as three at once is all you want. The downside appears to be that "three" max issue, along with an emphasis on some heavy vintage boxes. Bonus - more parameters on many than you would typically have. This is the box for true stomp fans.
The Zoom G3n - This is the box for those who want to program some, but want to potentially string up to Seven fx into your sonic brew. Cool chain editing capabilities, and the ability to split and assign patches to pedals in chunks, or use as single pedals. Downside, on three on-offs at a time.
The Boss MS3 - This is the all in a box digital stage switching system for someone who needs the number of effects that can be chained like the G3n, but want their REAL vintage boxes in loops, and want to toss an expression pedal, or two, along with a midi line, as cheap "Houston Control" for the stage.
For me - they would all work. But the G3n, is probably the simplest with the most for what I want to do. I could use it for more if I wanted. And at $124 it is the cheapest of the bunch. Stay tuned for NPD. Just as soon as this storm thing blows over....
