Effects newb

Ok so been playing bass for 20+yrs tons of gigs under belt but am a complete monkey when it comes to tone crafting....

 

I'm currently getting a project off the ground for weddings/functions and we're looking to play a variety of styles.  The playing I can handle but many of the tracks demand different dynamics and tones....

 

I'm not experienced enough to craft a pedal board so was thinking a stage going multi effects unit that I could load with a few tones I'd setup in advance could be a solution...?

 

Maybe have a one click Funk sound - then switch to a blues sound, rock sound etc...  Looking for ideas please guys , any help greatly appreciated :)

To find your feet on this so to speak a Zoom unit would be worth looking at, they’re pretty cheap, have many different effects and are pretty easy to use. From there you can find out if effects are your way forward or not (I depped once, got a load of different sounds as per the recorded tracks sorted and when I rehearsed with the band it sound disjointed so I settled in one decent sound).
