RE: Yamaha Magic Stomp



Title: RE: Yamaha Magic Stomp
I remember now. . . . .the effects editing - even at the demo at the store - was very tricky. Also, there was no tap tempo - important factor for me. Also, there is limited knob tweaking you can do during a live performance. The problem I have had in the past with multi-effects pedals, is I will tweak the sounds EXACTLY to my liking - but then when I play out the room environments are so different that the sounds end up totally useless. So then I have to go in and edit patches right before a show (which is never good) and then they aren't EXACTLY what I wanted. Then if during the course of the show I need to tweak a little more, I can't - because all the deep editing is buried in the effects pedal somewhere via laptop.
 
Many multi-effects pedals seem to get better at that kinda stuff (pod, Behringer V-Amp, and some Boss multi-effects), but as soon as I started tweaking the Magic Stomp, all that bad juju started coming back to me.
 
Honestly, it may work for you though. . . .give it a test run. You can always return it I suppose.

There was a definite reason why I didn't go with it, but I can't remember what now exactly.

I'll look around again when I get a chance. . .but I remember it was a pretty big deal for me why I didn't get it.
