Just watched Leon Todd's video describing the just announced Boss GX-100. Honestly, I'm a little confused by Boss's move here. It's got some nice bells and whistles and has a built in expression pedal. Holy cow, Boss actually has a colorized touch screen (I hated my monochrome Boss display)! It compromises on power though. I was watching LT build a preset and (despite maybe some previous comments by myself and others that the Fractal UI could be improved) found myself missing all the options for any given block. It just felt very dumbed down and they try to make up for that by dressing it up. Overall I wasn't very impressed.
EDIT: Just found this review. If you go to the 11 min mark they explain that this unit is more for guitar enthusiasts and, without using the words "dumbed down", do indicate that is the case. One interesting thing these guys bring to light is the flexibility of the DSP in this unit.
