Hot or Not? Hotone

This seens like a pretty cool pedal. Anyone any experience or any feedback as to the sounds?

 
Seems to have gotten mixed reviews from what I’ve read - not so much the effects themselves, but how it operates overall.

I was curious about this pedal, intil I realized you can only load one effect at a time. May as well just get a M5 for that.

How does the M5 sound? I also heard there were reliability issues with it

There are combination patches iirc, but overall,I concur.
 
OK, NOW they have my attention:

Each one at $150 or less...

:hmm:

That's very interesting. Added to list of stuff to check out at Gearfest. What I know of, nothing is good except the two notes for $500.

On the one hand, this part does not give me much hope:

"Loaded with 100 classic cabinet models, Binary IR also boasts 11 studio microphone simulations as well as eight power amp simulations — you can even manipulate the virtual microphone placement with the X, Y, and Z knobs."

Sounds like too many options and a pain in the ass. On the other hand:

" Best of all, the Hotone Binary IR pedal works with 3rd-party impulse responses, so you can easily upload your favorite cab sims via USB."

That could be a game changer.

Grown out of next-generation XTOMP technology, the Hotone Binary Series lets loose versatile pro-level effects in compact cases. Based on the same modeling/original effect library that amazed XTOMP users worldwide, Binary Series are dedicated to gather a bunch of high quality effects in a box with more affordable, competitive price. They feature compact casing, dual-footswitch design, versatile inputs/outputs and bright, clear OLED display, which blur the line between “classic pedals” and multi-effects.

At the core of all Binary Series pedals, a powerful dual-DSP platform and CDCM (Comprehensive Dynamic Circuit Modeling) modeling system ensure a realistic playing experience. The CDCM system is built on an extremely complex dynamic variation matrix, able to realistically express every detailed change that occurs during the operational process of actual circuitry: Everything is ALIVE and performs like its original.

The Hotone IR Cab is an impulse response-based cabinet simulator effects pedal that delivers 100 authentic legendary (vintage and modern) guitar and bass cab models. In addition, the IR Cab features CDCM-based legendary studio microphone and power amp models, as well as a variety of detailed mic position (X, Y, Z) and room simulations.
