Watching That Pedal Show off and on I always liked how the pedals seemed to sound better to my ears especially when used together.
So, I just ordered the QMX-8 system. I don't need the G3 system!
I was considering the Boss ES 8 switching system years ago and thought it was a bit too much money at the time.
Definitely liked the tones though!
As much as I like my Helix (with FRFR amps) and other amps just plugged strait in, I was too curious to pass this up!
I guess I'll always be a pedal junkie to some extent LOL!

I've been VERY happy with my ES-8 - I was a day one adopter of the thing, as soon as it was announced I ordered it.
It's made things possible that frankly aren't without - the parallel routing and LFO expression out are worth the price of admission!

reverendrob-I do remember you buying and liking the ES-8 System!
Got the QMX-8 a few days ago and didn't realize it needed a PS so I bought one today.
Yeah, I should have known that!!!
They say it requires 50mA for each pedal and their is 8 pedals (that can be used) so, 400 mA for power.
I got one that does 500mA.
They wanted quite a bit more coin for the one that's their own PS.
I'm thinking I'll need to get it as I'm not happy with the hum.
If I can get rid of the hum I believe it will be pure frickin magic!
Definitely a work in progress.
For any work I do right now with band guys I'm using the Helix or just a few pedals and A/Bing amps.
I do like it!

Not coming with a PSU sucks in that price range, honestly.
It's the one thing I love on the Boss, it eats a One-Spot and doesn't care.
It came with its own but I don't want to waste an outlet, and didn't have to.
Threw the 250ma PSU it came with in the pile of extras.

Yeah the PSU thing blows chunks but, I'm good with getting it right!  |
