Digitech BP90 vs. BP200

[djcarolino]

Hey guys. I was looking for just a basic multi-effects pedal with modeling as well. I've been looking at the Digitech BP90 and BP200 as a starter.. I just want to be able to experiment with sounds and different amp modelings. I also want to just use it for practice and for recording as well. I'm not looking to gig with this just yet too. I know there's others out there like the zoom and boss, but these two fit in my budget.. If any of you have some input with any of these, let me know! Thanks!

Well, obviously, the BP-200 has more to offer over the smaller BP-90. So, what was the question?

For the amp modeling and effects that are on both the 90 and 200, do they sound similar? Or does the 200 have a better sound?

I've had a digitech bp200. the bp200 does have more controls than the bp90, but it does seem to be more suitable for beginners. I don't own a bp90, but I would assume it's like the bp80, only with a sleek new design and a new chorus effect. and to answer you're question, yes they have similar sound quality. if you're an advance player, I personally would suggest saving more cash for a digitech bp355. this multi-effects processor has a larger variety of effects, amp and cab models. I do have sound samples of the digitech bp355 on my soundclick website. here's the link.

I have a BP200 and Boss Gt6b... sold my BP80
In Bp200 the amp modeling is a little digital,
but if set up, will sound better...
For amp modeling and records, look pedals with gabinet simu, it will sound better

However
Bp200 is a good pedals
See too the new digitech models and Boss, Korg, Line 6
If only to record and amp modeling, a pedal preamp with DI
can be a good choice
