Digitech - Where's the love?

[d(r)umbass]

I have the bp200, and have some self-made presets that I really like.

The bypass is a problem, though. It sucks out your tone, so I'm avoiding it more and more...

 

[Jim Kernan]

As someone new to bass I find the bp50 useful for practice, especially since I realized it works with headphones.

The OD/Dist. is pretty cool IMO.

I really dig the Blend control to give me that real Vintage Ampeg tone but in the flick of a switch i can get a real clean signal. I go between this and my TS-9 quite often in rehearsal and at gigs.

Its also a great boost pedal

The BP200 was my intro to effects, and was my only effect for several years. I loved all of its modulation and delay effects (and the whammy). I hated all of its amp models and distortions. Overall, I think its a good box to start with and get your feet wet in effects. And I love that you can assign a lot of different functions to the expression pedal. Definitely worth the money.

 

[whoatherechunk]

not true.

Their Hardwire series is pretty nice, but pretty much everything else shouldn't be used outside your bedroom ;/

 

[jimmyjam]

Whammy!!!!!
also what about the incredible XP series?
Digitech/DOD are awesome!
Yes they do break every now and then, but they're generally pretty easy to fix!

The PDS-1550 (yellow double pedal from the 80s) is pretty much my favorite bass distortion ever.

 

[meatwad]

Not a pedal, but my GSP-21 Legend has been quite handy for both bass and geetar...

 

[shaolinwhat]

im always finding new uses for my bsw, everything from super subtle to over the top stuff. the digidelay is really good too, wish i hadnt sold mine

I love my Digitech Bass Driver. and i also have the RP 350 for my guitar and i love it as well.

 

[Nyarlathotep]

Well, I just got a BSW, and just lost the last 2 hours to it

I have a BNX3. Great tool for songwriting, the limitation is I find it kinda complex to work with. I've made friends with it and learned how to adjust and store parameters for my effects and eq settings. The recorder is pretty easy to use. All the banks and modes of the thing can get pretty darn intimidating. The manual is also not that easy to follow either, at least for me. I worked with a guitar player who had one and knew his way around it pretty well, but he told me it took him a year to even start to understand it. I use mine live all the time because I've saved distortion and chorus sounds I like, but the key to using it for me is to know how to hit bypass mode if it's not sounding right. It's pretty fun to work with, just time consuming.

I've pretty much given up on digitech bass pedals but I picked up a "Bad monkey" distortion" for my guitar and love it - too bad it rather cuts out the bass freqs, since it sounds cool with a bass otherwise...

As far as other digitech gear, I've been using a digitech S200 rack unit for years and it is GREAT....

 

[Kelly Coyle]

I have two PDS 1002s and one PDS 2020, all wired in parallel, each modded to as much lo-fi delay as I could stand, then mounted in a rack unit with a foot controller by Tim Kaiser of Duluth, MN.

This is me with a Telecaster, eBow, ring mod, and the unit, improvising:

I love my Digidelay. My bad monkey is pretty damn good on bass, too. I got thedigidelay for next to nothing from a GC display sale. I think I paid $25 bucks. The Bad Monkey was used for $25 shipped. Those two pedals are a steal.

 

[whoatherechunk]

that is awesome! wow! any way you can let us enlarge the pics?

 

[Kelly Coyle]

Not without taking new ones -- I stole those from Invalid Link Removed.

 

[Versatek6]

Acceptable?

Still have an RP-7 and Genesis3 in the cabinet, and regularly use a GNX3000 on my guitar gigs.

 

[Scorsa]

I dont use my bp200 live, but it is fun in the bedroom (thats what she said)

 

[ourworldisgrey]

I have a digidelay and love it, and I have hyper phase and don't love it. The guitar player in my band uses a Hardwire reverb and that sounds very nice too. So all in all I have love for digitech.
