my bright onion switcher was half the price of the QMX6 .... (maybe... I just wanted to play )
I think a consistent theme of the Gigrig stuff is that it solves a particular problem, often very well - but at the same time introduces a whole heap more.
For example, the G2 is great - but it's MIDI implementation is really poor, so you buy a mapper.
You want the G2 not to use a buffer or anything, but it's high input impedance makes your guitar sound awful - so turn on the buffer/pre-amp and it's not 'untouched signal' anymore.
The modular powersupply I liked a lot, but for 95% of pedalboards you can get a single box to do exactly the same thing (just get a good isolated power supply)
I had persistant ground loop problems with the Quartermaster, solution buy a humdinger etc.etc
I expect this will be more of the same, a well made box - which solves a very, very specific problem - which you may or may not have.
This isn't meant to read bitter at all, I like how they've built the brand - well done to them, and they work really well if you work the same way as they imagined, but some of the design decisions I've found very disappointing.
Bit niche tho!
this is like Game of Thrones all over again!
fair disclosure: I’ve never watched Game of Thrones. I just know everyone’s disappointed.
@sgosden but you dont have lovely optical switches and a painted finish :-P
