Monckyman Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 These are great, I`ve been checking them out recently and two of the three bands I did on Frid were using one. They sounded good to me in the FOH, no loss of tone or digital artifacts, nice verbs and delays. The harmoniser is pretty impressive too. A must have for any singer interested in tailoring his fx to suit the song. Good luck with the sale. MM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudewheresmybass Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 just thought it would be worth mentioning that my wife uses one of these to great effect (!) with haer saxophone - a very versatile unit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monckyman Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Davy, just one point, does this unit come with the power supply? The stores seem to be selling them without a supply, which is £20 on top of an average price of £170=what you paid However the ads don`t mention it so the list price looks like £165 which makes your unit look overpriced. Just thought it might make your unit more competitive if you mentioned this in your post. Regards Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
