Yamaha is a whole different proposition. It would be interesting to see a POD/THR crossover. Line 6 also missed a trick by not revamping the Spider amps to compete with Roland's Cube range. I suspect that will be high on Yamaha's wish list as it would be an early win.

I changed the switches on mine - hardwired some SPST switches in place of those crappy actuators that always used to break. I used my DL4 live for 2-3 years solid, and it was a 2nd hand unit that had already had some years behind it.

I find it very strange. Never heard of it happening and never had that problem once with my pedal, nor has our other guitarist who know owns said pedal - complete with my ropey wiring!
I have had my Boss DD7's act weirdly though. On powering them up, sometimes they wouldn't recognise that an external tap tempo was plugged in, meaning I had to pull them off the board and re-insert the jack. Bit annoying, but only happened once or twice. Talk about odd!
I don't really like the looper on the Flashback X4. It relies too much on holding down footswitches to do important functions, like clearing the loop for instance.
If it had happened in the middle of a song it would have been either hilarious, or nightmarish, or possibly both .
Exactly. Software does weird things sometimes...
I have heard of a *lot* of other problems with the DL-4 though, and seen a few - not all switch-related. Basically I just don't trust them.

And, yes, pretty much every pro rig run down with a DL4 they have fixed/ replaced the switches.
The M series units were supposed to have regular updates but they stopped.
