Ok, almost every effect. So I decided to spend a few hours and record a song with no vocals (yet, hence the long intro) using my cheapest basses (used danelctro), cheapest guitar (used dearmond) and my $49 korg monotron through a bundh of effects. Took me about 2 hours with a Line6 UX2 using Live Lite. (In the Soundcloud link below). Best with headphones as I love to pan!

Everything is a live performance recorded direct except the drum loop. Feel free to jump past the long bass intro...which will have some whacked out vocals eventually.

Effects:
Zvex Box of Rock (Guitar / Bass / Monotron)
Swollen Pickle (Monotron)
Malekko Vibrato (Guitar)
MXR Bass Octave deluxe (Guitar)
Malekko 616 delay (Guitar)
Roland Space Echo 201 (Monotron / Guitar)
Budda budwah (Bass)
Holygrail reverb (Monotron)
Boss Micro rack RDD 20 delay (Guitar)
Boss Micro rack RRV-10 reverb (Guitar)

A little NIN sounding on purpose. I kind of like it and may record using a custom bass and les paul...just to see if there is a noticeable difference.
