Looking to get a multi-fx. Either a used ME-50 or GT-5. Any opinions?

I've tried both of those. I liked the ME-50 more.
The GT-5 was harder to figure out and I didn't need to built in amp simulations anyway.

I tried the ME-50 out. I hated the distortions. Too fizzy and full of bees. The Korg AX3000G has way better distortions.

telemike.
Just to confuse the issue even more,
I have (2) GT-3's and they both sound different.

Same settings - Same ROM revision - Same patch.

I still like the GT-3, but have never played a ME-50
But I did try out a friends ME-30, and I was disappointed to say the least, but music is all very subjective, I am sure that there are many people that love their ME-30's

I have just repaired a very old ME-6, for a friend of mine, I have been playing it, & it has some really nice distortions & patches.

In my case,
I find that the sound of various distortions, seems to be very dependent on my mood.

I wonder if any of you other guys, seemed to have noticed this?
