Review on Empress Effects Zoia Multi Effects by Eddie Simpkins

It's best to think of Zoia as a complete software platform, not just an effects pedal or synth. His biggest limitation is your imagination, not his skills. If you're willing to take the time to learn the basics, you can come up with incredible sounds and effects and then bring them to life. Remember that even the simplest things (like a wah pedal) take time to create. Zoya gives you raw materials and you build from there. It's very similar to musical Lego: you get a set of hundreds of building blocks that can be connected in endless ways, and you end up with your own creations. Or you can join an extensive online community and download patches from others. I just love this thing and have a lot of fun programming it.
