I'm not familiar with the RG75, but if it has a distortion channel, it should get you a workable heavy metal tone. You might have to adjust the EQ and Gain levels.I want to depart this world the same way I arrived; screaming and covered in someone else's blood

Dunno. Never used one. An older rack unit like the Legend will, or if it has to be on the floor, the RP1 (the Legend in the floor unit). Actually, the RP1 would be better because it's a rack in a pedal. The RP12 is a similar unit with an expression pedal attached.
Looking at the gnx3000 on Ebay, I'm sure it's a more advanced unit sound-wise (and not as old).I want to depart this world the same way I arrived; screaming and covered in someone else's blood

I have an OLD GNX, i dont even know i think its a GNX2. its not bad, for messing around at home. my biggest complaint is the split second of no sound when switching different presets. I think there are others out there that sound more natural and are probably better for live playing, since they dont have a dead second when switching. But for making noise and dicking around its not bad. if your RG75 is anything like the older RG80's or RG100's, you may just want to EQ it, its got enough gain to cover almost all metal.

All Digitech units did that until they had the S-Disc or dual S-disc brain. One chip "saved" the trailing sound until the new one kicked in.
Best way to work around the dead-note problem is to time your changes precisely, or do it during a drum roll.I want to depart this world the same way I arrived; screaming and covered in someone else's blood

btw, id say go for the gnx series solely for the fact that a: you can warp 2 amps together and make your own, and b: the whammy will shift your guitar down a whole step, so no more tune/retune in a set. just drop the pedal and go. and if you actually set it precisely in the exp. edit section, you can do 1/4 1/2 and 3/4 step down as well. itll also drop a 4th. e to b. its nice when you only brought one guitarLet me tell you about a porcupine's balls.... They're small, and they don't give a shit!
