awesome bass effects

This multi-effects is awesome,first ,ease of use ,I didn't have to use the manual to get the sound I wanted ,though I know there's more into it if I will use the manual,secondly the sound is terrific,all those patches and presets are sweet in the ear,I'm definitely looking forward in trying out the other zoom effects out there...

"ZOOM" into style!

The Zoom B1x is an AMAZING pedal! Sound quality is exceptional and very capable for recording aplications. The "ZNR" feature is essentially a noise gate that is very effective at keeping pickup "hum" at bay. This pedal has some very nice amp models that are very close to the real ones and sound very believable and "tube-like".
Programming is very easy after reading the manual and some very creative "useful" effects are possible. There are great achievable "wah" effects in this as well as very nice reverbs and delays. Many of the effects are in stereo which has been great for recording. The drum samples sound very good and powerful in a mix, too! I am very happy with this B1x and I can't wait to use it on stage. This was my first "ZOOM/Samson" purchase and I am very pleased with it's sound quality- especially at this low price point! Even though the case is made of plastic (very tough) the two switches are very solid feeling and the effects switch instantly without any delay.
I recommend this highly- you'll enjoy many hours of experimenting with the sounds. Enjoy!

Awesome

It took a little while for me to get use the this pedal,but now that I undrstand hoe to operate it,its great,I use it on stage hwen I play out with my band,and I use it alot at home to piss off my neigbors.The exspession pedal comes handy to adjust my chorus effect,and the EQ helps bring out the high end notes of my bass with the active EQ, you really cant beat the price of this unit,and even though its constructed of plastic, you can definitely knock some one out with it.
