yep indeed! the xp300 imo is the best out the range. but the reverb one and the whammy wah has something to offer also. Defo a great package to have all in one. I checked out the guys mod inside the pedal and it is all very neat and tidy.
The reverb side is pretty noisey(as in it adds hiss) but it is pretty kool for what i need. the wahs are great because the pedal has a great sweep better than other wahs i have tried. the wammies are a great addition to my board, I have the ps-5 on there but I dont use it with a expression pedal. so having the wammies is great. the modulation is fine...but unless it is ehx I'm not really interested in modulation.(miss my clone theory) basically with the xp1000 the ps-5 and the oc-3 I am getting closer to my goal of sounding like an synth/piano/organ instead of a guitar! greaaaat!

thats wicked hurb, glad your finally see that ole light at end of that ole tunnel boyo.
i'm still westling with my setup at the mo.

current i've got on the board,

blues driver>digital metalizer>lbp-1>echo park.

i really want a tremelo pedal and some kind of octave pedal. i used to use a boss lesile sim pedal, but the bypass is shite on it, knocks off loads of top end.

out of all the pedals i have, i keep coming back to my digital metalizer, i really wanna get another one.

There is no light dude, the guys on here will tell you i have been messing with my board for years now...and it changes all the time. I am never 100% happy. the more I add the closer and the further i get away from what I want. It is frustrating but I love pedals so what you gonna do?

I put off and put off bringing my IRL worries to the board as A) I dont like doing that, and B) I felt like it was cementing that I wasn't getting it. but as soon as i did..it turns up.

i always say to myself, i've gotta try and cut down, only use what i need to, but then i hear something i wanna do or feel somethings missing from my board. plus i feel that it looks empty sometimes, so i fill it up with pedals that might only get used for a brief texture or something.

the tremelo is something i miss off my old vox i had, but i'm now torn between the tuna melt and the new cool cat trem. i'm after that kinda soupy trem sound from how soon it now by the smith, even though that was from two twin reverbs in snyc or something like that.
