lidl e Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 Odd question i know. I prefer analog distortion, but i need a smaller pedalboard that i can bring around if I'm taking public transport. I dont love amp sims. Ive never really explored them tbf, but im not sure i need that functionality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fretmeister Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 There's quite a few without amp sims, but most multi effects include overdrive / dist. There's no point in the makers removing that bit of code! Line 6 HXFX is an example. No amp sims. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassmidget209 Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 If your wanting compact then I would say the plethora (TC electronic) X5 or x3 if you want it really compact 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do have a TC BH250 that i really like. Im just worried that will tie me in to the TC sound too much. I guess that's the name of the game with multi-fx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassmidget209 Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 That's what's holding me back as well. ...Well that and a complete inability to pay for either. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Franticsmurf Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 +1 for the Plethora X3 - I've just added it to my board and while there's tweaking to be done, I love the sounds I'm getting after only a few days. It does have a cab sim built in to the global settings (i.e. doesn't take up a pedal slot) but you can switch that off. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
