Nice , good product , with few issues that could be corr4ected
I know BOSS product very well.This is a nice new example of good quality, however I believe, tgaht BOSS did not finish the homework with the software. In my case in the BOSS Editor, there are several bugs, eg. DELETE function dies not work. The linear arrangement of the effects is not very practical, the patches cannot be freely rearranged into groups. The sound quality and the ease of use on the other hand has nothing to be claimed.
