Hey! Newbie here

[TwistedTape]

Very informative. This answered all my queries.

Gonna take a nap now for 6 hours.

One thing that can mess with phase quite a bit is EQ,. Thats one reason why extreme eq setting can sound weird. If I were starting my gear journey over again, I would start with an HX Stomp, get that going into an interface and get a decent pair of studio monitors. Thats how I run and I love the sounds I get. Also, you can ad some nice finishing touches in a daw like this.

If I ever get a multi effects unit, it will be something like the old Boss ME-50.

I am clumsy and impatient. So instead of diving into menus and icons on a big display, anything with enough knobs would be easier to use for me. No hidden features. Added bonus of being able to tweak settings on the fly!

I have never owned any of the ME series, but the knobs are a plus. I had the Digitech RP360. I miss that thing sometimes, it had an lfo you could put on anything.

You should look at the new boss ME unit then. Seems like it’s well received by people.

I am not a big effects user. I checked out the units released after ME 50, and they kept getting bigger and bigger.

I only use tuner and overdrive pedals. At the most, I would use another Overdrive, Chorus, Delay, Reverb, maybe a volume pedal. So theoretically anything like the ME 50 is perfect :)

I am currently using only a tuner pedal and a volume pedal. I also have an overdrive pedal (Boss SD-1) which I will never part with.

After some research online, I found out that there are some simple-to-use multi effects pedals, which have knobs like the one in the pic I have enclosed below. No menus/ screens. No hidden features. Nothing to worry about. They are kinda expensive though.

I have decided to keep some money aside every month, so that I can buy something like this after a few months.

Hopefully these will be as reliable as Boss units.

I will only buy it from a place/ online seller who have a good return policy, and from sellers who offer warranty.
