About Rackmount Guitar Effects


Looking for something for your studio? Rackmount guitar effects are often used in pro and home studios, and they are an excellent choice for stage rigs. When buying rackmount guitar effects, you have a choice between units that are dedicated to a single effect and multi-effects units that give you a range of effects and sound tweaks from which to choose.


Is a vintage sound more your style? Some rackmount guitar effects are great at emulating the characteristics of speaker stacks and individual amps. Want to mix in some pre-recorded sounds? They can do that, too. Look for rackmount guitar effects that can be hooked up to a computer or smartphone via USB. These are made for musicians who do solo gigs or those who play on the streets.


The biggest advantage to rackmount guitar effects units is that most have MIDI in, out, and thru, giving you total control with a single push on the board. Unlike pedals that can’t easily be adjusted mid-song, rackmount guitar effects are easily accessible. While they can be complex to set up, their creative and sonic freedoms more than make up for it.


Rackmount units are usually the largest type of guitar effect, which makes them well-suited for a studio. For reference, a typical rackspace unit is 1.75 inches tall by 19 inches wide. Road case racks may be a better fit if you’re always on the road.
