0175westwood29 Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 (edited) i was looking into getting a tc g major 2 a while back some awesome sounds, delays, reverbs, pitch shifting, modulation! and loads more but no dirt but its an amazing effect! in the end i went with pedals as im only gonna use delay, reverb and some modulation so it was a bit over the top. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_njX52NyaA the video is a guitar but very cool unit. andy Edited November 18, 2011 by 0175westwood29 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolverinebass Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 How about an old Yamaha spx90? They're reasonably cheap and good gear. My guitarist has one and it sounds good on bass as well. I think Duff from GnR used one for years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiamPodmore Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 Line 6 POD X3 Pro or maybe one of the new HD Pro models. All the amp/cab/mic sims are defeatable and both have good effects (Except the synth) that aren't too hard to use and program. Liam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winterfire666 Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 yamaha rev500 - super clean, far superior for bass than the cheaper spx units and they go cheap on ebay too. awesome unit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmccombe7 Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 I picked up a Lexicon MPX200 for buttons on ebay few months back and its pretty impressive although gtrist has pinched for use with the PA. I was only using it at home for messing around. Some really good sounds though Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acebassmusic Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 I've been using a TC Electronics G-Major rack for a number of years. Lots of delays, chorus, wah, flange, phase and also built in compression. Its so good and flexible that I've just upgraded to the G-Major 2......which means my original will be going up in the For Sale section soon......

jensenmann Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 For seriously creative effects there are only few boxes that allow you to dive very deep into creating algorithms. Eventide rackmount processors are very wellknown for that (H3000 or H3500, DSP4000/GTR4000 or DSP4500, H7000, Orville, H8000, Eclipse) as the TC Electronic Fireworx is. All these go beyond the abilities of standard multieffects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
