SO GLAD I got that extra hole in my head.

I'm having a ball tweaking and re-tweaking this beast! The best part is ... I have off ALL WEEKEND to customize it before taking it to work on Monday. I play, I eat, I swim ... in that endless cycle ... "life is good today, thanx Zac"
Seriously .... this is the best designed effects processor I've ever seen. I was in love with the Nova system, but this has 90% of the Nova capabilities PLUS the vocal and looping ... it's so what I was waiting for.
I'm sure, there will still be lots of quick in-out opportunities that I will just use the on board effects in the PA900 (to save time, mostly), but for anything demanding, or if I NEED the guitar .... this baby is in the mix.
I'll finalize the setup options and take some pics later this w/e ... so far all it did was add another piece on the floor under my kb - everything else is the same.
I'm a happy boy(d).
