the gt-8 is better than the line 6 (haha flame away) but it does take a lot more time to get used to. my advice is get a nice clean set up on the amp, and then find a simple clean patch on the gt-8, cant think of a number off the top of my head but some of the jazz ones are ok, then turn off all the extra stuff leaving you with the just the patch, then start building it up a little at a time. maybe just an overdrive and then set up the eq and you will get some decend sounds.

also make sure youve eq'ed your amp nicely to get yourself a good sound.

i have one right here with me and im playing it, iv had it a good few months and theres still loads i dont know how to do but bare with it

Now i'm start getting use to with adjusting setting on GT-8.. thanks Rogue for that. :)

And another thg that i would like to ask you guys is.. how can i connect to amp to get clear FX sound?? to Input plug or to Loop> return? some said if we connect to Loop> return can get the pure FX sound.. is it true? but when i do that i can't use any function of normalsetting on Amp (eg. master volume, gain, built in effect, bass, mid tremble etc etc).. is that normal? or how can i sort this out?..

Thanks ahead

now i know why ppl say GT-8 is awsome.
with that we can do a lot of thing..
but it may b it's too much options for beginner (and dumb) like me.. :D
need a bit more practise to refine mastering and mic type etc etc...
but i will b get by eventually.. (i hope)
and I really really appreciate you guys help..
Cheers
