Well, it would be easier to answer if you told us what kind o' music you play...

Anywho... go with Digitech... I really dislike Boss. Probably the only pedals I like from them are their Delays. DD-3 and DD-7 just rock my socks! 'Specially a pair of DD-3's... *drools*

Anywho... Go with Digi...


:/

This post reeks of sooo much fail.


This.

Also, go with single stompbox effects whenever possible.

Once processing power reaches a certain point, it doesn't matter. Sample rates are now faster than the human ear can discern, and bit-depth is also beyond human hearing. Thus, there's no scientific basis to say that analog sounds better than digital. It's like saying film looks better than a digital picture; once the pixel size gets small enough, it doesn't matter. People who say individual stompboxes are better just aren't good at tweaking multi-effects pedals. That's fine, and stompboxes still sound great, but sound quality really isn't a valid reason not to use digital effects pedals anymore.

If you have a specific sound from a classic song that you want to recreate, digital effects will never get it perfectly. But if you want to create your own sounds, there's really no difference that I can tell. But each to his own, I suppose.

Personally, I find digital multieffects pedals to be more flexible and portable than their analog counterparts. I have no interest in spending twice as much money on a system that will cause me more frustration and limits me to the style I was playing when I bought it. I will, however, give you that multi-effects modelers haven't really nailed distortion sounds yet. That's why I'm probably going to buy an individual distortion pedal.

Go set a Germanium Fuzz out in the sun for two hours, plug it in and play some Yardbirds, then try and tell me digital is the same as analog, or play a Lunar delay and try to tell me it's the same as what you could come up with on your computer, or play the Comfortably Numb solo in a huge auditorium, and try to explain to me how it would sound better in a bedroom with a reverb emulation pedal. I might be a purist, but digital bullshit will never replace my precious tubes and my pure anolog pedals.

Again, I specifically said that digital will never perfectly simulate analog equipment. They may get closer and closer, but if you really want that sound then you'll want to buy the original equipment. But conversely, you could never get an analog pedal to sound exactly like a digital one. I don't think we should view digital processors as trying to emulate analogs; they should make their own sounds that are different from their counterparts. I hate "modelers", no matter how accurate they are, because they're just not putting the technology to its best use.

So no, you won't get the Yardbirds sound perfectly with a digital processor, but you will get your own sound that might even be better. And you can play both analog and digital in an huge auditorium and expect a good sound.

They both had a pretty badass sound.

Vox tonelab LE

"Guitar Player" rated it THE BEST multieffects processor in the market right now.

And we all know a profit driven magazine would never allow the add revenue from large companies to affect their opinions one bit ;P


But the OP already has the Tonelab LE... sweatdrop


Learn how to read.
Sheesh.

Go for the Vox Tonelab, they sound a gabillion times better.

I don't like The Who. They're cool and all, but the synths literally give me a headache. I have no idea why, but they do. I can listen to The Doors all day, but The Who makes my head hurt for some weird reason. I have no idea why.

Also I like the dark fuzzed out tone more then the bright overdriven kinda tone.

No synths in their stuff until the 70s though, their debut is pure garage bliss razz

However we all know the real secret to awesome tone is slashing your amps speaker cone ;D
