There is no processor is this price range that can touch it.Loads of effects and options.It will switch amp channels and has full midi capability.The sounds are top notch and you can tweak them to no ... read more [+]end. It does have a steep learning curve as far as midi programming is concerned,but once you get it down its pretty easy. I would give it a 5 but the T.C. website doesnt offer much support for it in the way of extra patches,you are pretty much on your own in that aspect,but overall you cant beat it!! close [-]

A Rack by Any Other Name

by Tim from Central Missouri

Music Background: Ex-Pro Guitarist, Recording Hobbyist
I picked up one of the original G-Majors right after they came out back in 2001 (I think). Since the mid-80s, I'd switched from racks to half-stacks and back again several times, at least until '94 wh... read more [+]en I stumbled onto a Mesa-Boogie Studio Preamp with a stereo power amp. That was the 1st amp (of the 12 I'd owned by that point) that I was ever really happy with. I still love it, too, although it now shares my affections with several heads & combos that have been good enough to stick around for a while. But, I digress...

When I first got that Boogie, I loved the sound, but I still needed effects. I must've gone through almost every rack processor ever made, some more than once, before I found the G-Major. Like the Boogie it shares rack space with, it was the 1st processor that really did everything I wanted it to (well, almost)...

So, when TC came out with the G-Major II, I thought it sounded like a worthwhile upgrade. True to form, it seems to be a worthy successor. The reverbs are still just as good if not better, and the delays & modulation effects are top-notch. The switching relays work perfectly with my setup. And, I get the added bonus of being able to use it as a VST plug-in, if I need a new flavor in the studio. Maybe my favorite thing is that there's no modeling here. Granted, modeling has gotten a LOT better than it used to be, but... The G-Major II doesn't pretend to be something it's not. (Admittedly, I do own a PODxt, which has been a great practice tool.)

Still, though, it's not perfect. The intelligent harmonies are a good addition (it's about time, huh?). However, the compressor isn't that great (it's alright for studio use, though)... probably has something to do with the placement in the signal chain (e.g. after the pre-amp, not before). The phaser, well, let's just say that my old Arion Stereo Phaser that I bought in '86 for $20 is better. The Through-Zero Flanger didn't impress me much, but the Tri-Chorus is OK and the standard chorus and flanger are really good. The delays are stellar, though. It's nice to be able to modulate them, too, although it's a little tricky getting it to sound like a good Echoplex or Deluxe Memory Man.

So, while my pedal boards aren't in any danger of being sold in the immediate future, I'm pretty happy with the G-Major II. It does everything it's supposed to do, is really easy to use and program, and sounds excellent. Without spending several thousand on an Eventide, I doubt anything else will ever be in my rack (G-Major III, maybe). close [-]
