Boss VF-1 Effect Processor

All,

I am changing my whole guitar setup to 19" and looking for a good 
replacement for my GT-3. I tried the GP-100 (which is a very good 
device) but it doesn't do the job.

I am a guitarist who does a lot of soundscaping and making over-the-
top effects and the amount of effects and possible combinations on 
the GP-100 just doesn't do it.

I read the specifications of the VF-1 on the web and it looks 
promising. It has twice the effects of the GT-3 and with the same 
digital quality.

BTW, my setup is:
- Ibanez Universe guitars
- TC Electronic G-Force (I'll get in this week I hope)
- FC-200 Midi controller
- Digitech Whammy
- GR-33 guitar synth
- Morley Bad Horsie wah
- GP-100 (not for long I hope)
- GT-3 (not for long I hope)


Please advice if the VF-1 is an option. (Please don't advice the GT-6 
as it is no option!! Only 19"!!)

Thanks!
Marc

Marc,
If you're selling, how much for the GP-100 ?

I own a GP- 100, I agree it has it's limitations but its a very good
machine.
The presets of the GP are very bad in comparision to the presets of the
VF-1.
After a lot of tweeking my user patches are a mix of (shitty) factorypresets
and a lot off good sounds (sometimes they are a little bit "over the top"
which can result in "Digital Clipping", adjust the master volume, not the
master volume of the preamp section but the master which comes after the
Reverb).

Also the patches 001 and151-160 are off no use for You because they are set
up to work together with my ADA MP-1 tube-preamp.
The syx doc contains the complete memory off my GP-100, try them out if you
like.

These patches are setup for home-recording and I almost always use
Headphones, try them out if you like and maybe you'll change your mind and
keep the GP-100.

The VF-1 and GP-100 do have an overlap but I think they are that much
different (sounding) so I wan't them both,

My gear:
A japanese Fender strat (1983 or so), I almost only use the bridge pick-up
or the bridge \ufffdnd neck pick-up combined, this sounds best whit the GP-100
IMHO.
An Ibanez Artist acoustic guitar (1982) whith a Fishman "hot rod" pick up
build in (later).
Roland Gr- 30 guitar synth
Roland JV-880 synth
Yamaha PSR-500 keyboard
ADA MP-1 midi programmable tube preamp
Boss VF-1
FC-200
Ibanez DM 500 and a Zoom 2020 I almost never use anymore
