Does anyone have experience with tc electronics m-300 or m-one.

Im looking for a way to justify spending more money on the m-one. I also know that there is a new and improved version of the m-one called the m-one XL. I am recording vocals and acoustic guitar. The unit will be used mainly for vocals. I wish the people at the music store would act like real people instead of salesmen. I would be a whole lot more comfortable. Seem like they are always trying to lead me somewher else. They say things like , "No this is what you need. I only have one left so you better buy it now."

So thats why yourhelp is greatly appreciated.
Thank you
 
Tonally they are about the same. There are more sounds in the M-One and you can customize each sound more extensively. The M-One XL has XLR inputs and even more sounds. That's about it.

The M300 is a great unit for $199. I was going to buy one but decided on a used M-One for the programmability and low cost on ebay.

Hope this helps.

I've never used the M1 (other than a rifle), but I've been using the M300 for some time without a hitch. Not only does it provide solid basic reverbs, but it really isn't a bad auxiliary compressor, and a fair A-D converter. I'm mostly recording dry tracks, so I don't use the reverbs much, except when I'm playing around. It is, however, the A-D convertor for my Avalon AD2022, and it has performed like a champ. Other than the RNC, I can't think of another $200 rack unit that is as useful. No wall wart, no transformer hum, and quite a bit of programmability. I also found it more user friendly than the compareable Lexicon unit. Just go to Guitar Satan and read the owner's manuals to an M300 and an MPX200.-Richie
