that thing is fun to learn about effects with. its definitely a beginners toy, but you can get some usable tones with it.

seek out a "feeback bleeding effects looper" on ebay. Simply run your boss unit in a loop, and bleed in plenty of dry signal.

never trust a line level / wet / dry control on a digital effects processor. but by using a bleeding looper you can maintain some semblance of your instruments tone

I meant to reply to this thread a while ago, but keep forgetting.  I picked up one of these a couple months ago and feel I have it dialed in pretty good now.  It essentially has everything that my normal board does, effects wise, although everything sounds better on my regular board, lol.  The reason I picked it up was to have an "easy" practice rig.  Something light and compact to bring to practices so I'm not lugging my pedaltrain pro around to every practice spot.

I'll post a pic tonight when I get home about what I have it set at, but I mostly use the clean preamp section, with the gain at about 2 o'clock, and then the blues distortion mode for extra grit.  I find the delays very usable, as I do the delays, phrase sampler and whammy settings.  IMO, nothing is going to trump a well put together board with the analog pedals you desire, but when I have practices for a certain show, I just bring this along, it's sweet for what it is.
