Sorry for the whiney topic, just doing a brain dump I guess. I want a Quad but it seems expensive for what it is. Plus I would need to buy a new PS to integrate it with my board. We're talking $2000, I am not even sure if I would like it and I see quite a few folks buy them and dump them, reports of problems with the hardware, etc. On the surface it seems like it would fit my needs for a live DI rig, good sounds, good effects, lots of switches, highly programmable, but that price. For the record I have an FM3 that sounds amazing but my problem for live use it making tweaks on the fly is a pain in butt, so it stays in my studio. On my desk I have a Valeton GP-200LT which sounds great and serves me well for practice and learning songs and whatnot, but it's not 
ble enough for live use and the effects are kind of meh. Then there is my trusty Boss GX-100 which I have done many live gigs with over the years and it has served me well. I also recently bought a GX-10 to use for a backup and for rehearsals and jams where I don't want to bring my big board. I play in a southern rock tribute band and we tour around Florida and are doing a little jaunt up the east coast in a couple of weeks. Anyway I would love to try a QC but I can't get past the initial cash layout. Let me know your thoughts on this and how you justified the purchase. Thanks and rock on!
