Talking Roland GP-100 owners UNITE ! !

What can I say Roland got this one right, and this guitar preamp signal processor will be the last one I buy till it breaks. Now I can sit here and kiss the GP-100's ass all day. Effects galore, speaker sims, amp sims, several types of distortion, overdrive even FUZZ? but lets get to the good stuff. SOUND SETTINGS...
This is a sound I called EarthDog after my alternavite band back in 95. I used this sound for almost every song giving the band a distinctive sound around the the Tri state area of NYC... This is a FAT THICK sound, a live sound, but I have used it in the studio as well. Tons of chunck for the grind, and the slow flange gives the lead notes a wicked evil scream behind them. Crank it and enjoy!!
here is the EFFFECT SEQUENCE:
CL-PRE-S/R-SP-EQ-NS-FL-DD-RV
CL-compressor limiter Sus-50 Att-50 Cslvl-60 Tone- -5
Preamp Mode-Patch Type OD-2 Turbo(distortion)
Vol-80 Bass-70 Mid-75 Treb-100 Pres-51 MstrV-35 Gain-middle
I use a BBE sonic Maximizer with my S/R so if you dont have one your sound will be very different then mine. Just tweek the mid-hi to hi end EQ to your liking.
Speaker sim- Metal stack Mic lvl- 100 Dirlvl 22
Eq settings ( ill leave these up to you )
noise supp thres-50 release-50 Env input guitar
Flanger Rate-6 Depth-20 Manual-43 Reso-4

I played through a Roland GP-16 once in a guitar store for like 6 hours. This was when it was new. Ever since then I have totally drooled every time I see one on eBay. I havenlt bought one because it would be of pretty limited usefulness to me, and would probably actually jsut be a play toy I used once in a while.

In your opinion, how does the GP-100 stack up to the previous models (GP-16 and GP-8). I know it's a pretty different set of effects...

And do you have any tone samples I can hear?

Exclamation TONE samples?

Theres boat loads on my mp3 site, from clean to the one have posted here. I never played the GP-16 or 8, so sorry I cant comment on that. I did own the GSP-21 Legend. The Legend was great for what it was but good god did your sound clip out if you changed form one sound to another. Which is why I got the GP-100. I really wanted it to be my last piece of guitar equipment. I was tired of buying stuff for that killer sound.
One of the greatest features about the GP-100 is that you can change the EFFECT STRING around... So I can put effects before or after the preamp and in just about any order I want, major selling point for me.

Listen to it in action!
