My new endeavor is to go for the rack. When I get enough money, I'm gonna ditch my dinky foot pedal and get the real stuff.
I ordered myself a Joe Meek MQ3, so I have the pre-amp/compressor aspects of things filled. So in the next few months I plan to purchase myself a rack unit to complete the upgrade.
I use some reverbs, delays, doubler, chorus, and perhaps for some experimentation a little flange/distortion.
The problem I'm having when it comes to deciding on which one to buy, I see all of these ones with these dynamic effects and preamps. I spent $200 on a comp/preamp, so I figure that I have that pretty much covered. I think that getting to get some of the same options I already have is a bit redundant.
Are there any like straight effects units that presume that the user has already bought themselves a decent pre/comp? I just don't want to spend money on something that I already have. I'd rather that the money went into manufacturing and engineering the effects that I would actually utilize from the unit.
So are there any ideas here? Am I just being too picky? Help me out here. I'd say that my budget was a max 400-500.
