i bought a rockman, way back when....
was it 1982?
i still have it somewhere.
have some demos recorded with it.....
the cleans on it were really nice...
and i liked the distortion without the chorus effect....
but found that every single track ended up sounding the same using this thing.
same eq, same sonic fingerprint.
but at the time, it was like a magic miniature studio.
actually, the best of all the products he put out, was the Distortion Generator.
run that, into a programmable EQ, and you are really onto something.
