Just looking for a little insight into the world of guitar pedals. I recently rented the DigiTech RP200, and am unsure about the sounds that it offers in terms of accuracy to what its trying to emulate. Then again, it may be something that I need to invest time into...any guitarists out there with any input would be much appreciated...cheers - Sun, 9 Nov 2003 9:27pm

it all depends on your budget and what you need
so, what's ur budget, and what effects will you use? - Sun, 9 Nov 2003 9:39pm

Avoid multi-fx units if at all possible. They are decent enough for giving a general idea of what differing FX can do but will _never_ sound as toneful as a dedicated stompbox; quantity, not quality if you will. You may find that with a couple of decent pedals, you can get just about everywhere you need to go. - Mon, 10 Nov 2003 2:01am

And every guitarist will tell you something different. Except me, I'm not helping at all. - Mon, 10 Nov 2003 2:25am

mad subwoofer is right...for the most part
i find that digitech is the exception though
i personally prefer stompboxes, and almost use them exclusively
i do have a digitech XP100 (whammy/wah)in my rig that would be considered a multi effects box, and the thing fuckin rules!

but anyways,
i'd buy stompboxes if i were you
the only reason you'd ever need a multi efects is if you want to save money, or you like having 75 watery reverbs and 40 flat sounding choruses - Mon, 10 Nov 2003 7:45am
