What is best multi-effects box for bass?

[gastric]

GT-10B is the "best" overall multieffects for bass. The M9/M13 stuff has better sounding drive effects, reverbs and delays IMO, but the rest of the effects are subpar compared to what you get with the GT-10B, modulation in particular. Also, the GT-10B offers amp sims and a ton more hardware options like XLR DI outs, expression, amp control, FX loop, and on and on.

Once upon a time I had the M9 in my GT-10B effects loop. However, now I'm happy to just use the effects in the GT-10B and pair them with judicious EQ and not need to haul some other large box around with me.

This reminds me of a practical joke my brother did with one of his co-workers. it's kinda pointless and stupid, but it's hilarious. he had a card or a piece of paper that says "how to keep an idiot busy? turn side over". and on the other side it says the same thing. that link reminded me of that joke.

For the budget and ease of use i would go with the Boss me50b.

I use a Digitech GNX 3000 for practice. It has both guitar and bass amp models, and the DI is pretty good. The chorus and delays are great. The filters are ok. Lots of built in FX.

i like the m13 if not for the size, i like my M9 which it has a effect loop but it is able to run stereo so a looper+blender u can chug in yer fave dirty box and blend them in nicely and yeah + a EB VP-Jr as a expression pedal. it works very very well.

Personally I've never found any line6 product good enough to spend money on.

IMHO if your actually giging & not just jamming at home for kicks the Boss stuff is the way to go .. they are bulletproof, especially the GT models.

The GT10b is for sure the best overall in the GT line but the GT6b is still very viable & you can grab them cheap these days.

+1 for the GT10B, the best hands down. (IMHO)

I would go with the BP355 from Digitech. It has lots of great tones and the looper is fantastic. Goes for 200 bucks and well worth it.

+1 on the digitech bp355.

It's an awesome multi-effects processor. you can create a lot cool sounds with this multi-effects processor. it's totally worth the 200 dollars.
