RE: recommendation anyone?



IMHO, that's no longer the case.

However, you'll probably want to stay away from the usual guitar effectors;
roland, boss etc. I have a couple of 2120 in my stick rack, and there a
loads of fun, but I wouldn't call them high fidelity, especially the preamp
section.

Say 'extensions' and then '56789' to get to bIz's house of fun.

Hi-I find that "high-quality rack-mountable multi-effect units" is an
oxymoron-if you really desire high quality I find single purpose dedicated
boxes cannot be duplicated in any way!If you really need *REVERB* you have
to look at tubes or LEXICON etc. You have to choose between simplify and
high quality IMHO  Good Luck...STANNER
