I can't recommend it enough. While the quality of the effects aren't
exactly Lexicon, they're pretty darn good. Plus you've got very nearly
every Boss effect ever made all in one unit. You can use up to, I think,
15 effects at once. Here a brief list, from memory:

Chorus, Delay, Reverb, Noise Suppressor, Leslie, Compressor/Limiter,
Cabinet Simulator, (Analog) Distortion, Vocoder, Wah-wah, Envelope
Follower, Flanger, Pitch Shifter/Harmonizer, Vocal Eliminator, EQ,
2-channel virtual mixer, etc. etc.

Plus it has a built-in tuner and metronome, and is extremely MIDI
controllable. All in a one-half rack space. For its price-point, there
isn't any multi-effects unit (that I know of, so far) with so many
features.

I've used mine on the road for a solid year and I've never had any trouble
with it.

hey mark,

you might want to check out this site: 'http://harmony-central.mit.edu'.
there are some effects reviews and a bunch of other stuff.  BTW, i bought
an SE-70 about a year ago and am pretty satisfied with it.  i usually use it
only for chorus, reverb and echo through my amp's effects loop.  it also
works well straight into a four-track.
