What are peoples thoughts on these? listening to the video's they sound ace, with some amazing sound possibilities. I'm going to go and try one but I'm just wondering how folks have got on with theirs, you see quite a few for sale so I just wondered why.
What are they like to live with, for example are they easy enough to deal with live with just a few presets set up?
After going back to multiple stomp boxes I'm finding the tone loss and volume loss through my board a bit disturbing, the idea of a few high quality effects is appealing.
The most settled I've been for ages was with a Zoom G3 on my board, which I recently sold. The analog reality is not yet living up to the dream.

I'm bloody glad I went with it. The individual effect quality is the best ive heard in any individual effect pedal.
I was thinking just the same set up which would all nicely fit on my PT JR. I'm fed up messing with loads of patch cables and power supplies, this solution would be neat and sound great. Pricey though!
So I tried one for about 20mins today in Sounds Great. First impressions good, nice clean sounds, very clear and hifi with no noise and a fairly intuitive menu system so that I could get roughly what I wanted without messing about. Lots of possibilities.
I'd like to try one next to the Zoom effects, the latter from memeory were a little warmer, although the increased clarity of the Strymon may just make them seem warmer. The Strymon in no way sounds digital, it was just very clear.
Some of the effects did not seem to go very deep, but that could have been the way I was aimlessly tweaking.
So first impressions good, it certainly did nothing to make me not want a 2nd go.
Also tried an El Cap, that was very nice too.
