FM9 is certainly a better option (I love mine) except for the price.

Yea but odds are with boss or ampero youwill ebd upselling to get something better in the end so just start off with the best

My FM9 is practically hard wired into my studio with USB, SPIDF, tube amps, and pedals all connected for recording. I don’t want to disconnect all that for every rehearsal or gig. The GX-100 is an inexpensive and lightweight alternative that comes with an expression pedal built in. FM9 does sound better and has better switching options. But not that much better for me to be willing to pay up for a second one just for gigs.

And fwiw, I just bought a GT-1000. For reasons. And for the stuff I'll be using it for, an FM9 simply wouldn't work.

I just returned the Boss Gt-1000 core for the GX-10. I'm in heaven. The Nouns are great but the Verbs,,,Awesome

Very Tycho-ish. Very nice! Got lost in the music for a little bit.

NGL, I'm still considering picking up the GX10 or GX100 to mess around with in front of (or 4CM) my Orange amp. The GX100 is tempting here because it has lots of switches, has the expression pedal built in, and has an amp switching jack built in. I didn't like the GTK for stereo effects and lack of delays, but I'd run the GX in mono and it doesn't have the same fixed blocks. Also curious how the Boss amp models sound running into a power amp and cab (which I didn't try previously as I got the Orange amp and cab after I sold the GTK).

The GX100 is built like a tank and I am loving the foot switches and expression pedal.

Its hard to get away from boss.

The big question mark for me is "how do the models sound direct into a tube power amp?"

Sadily, I have a feeling that most of them have gone in the direction of sounding best to a PA, where they model amp saturation into the preamp section. Fractal models preamps 1:1. Not sure about the others.

Maybe not what you're looking for, but I did mention that it fits in the Boss softcase for the GT-1. It's snug and puts a bit more pressure on the zippers but nothing I would worry about.
