Members BradWilbanx Posted June 18, 2008 Members Share Posted June 18, 2008 I got this a few years back used at GC for like 50.00... So while doing a thorough cleaning of my excess gear closet I saw it and started thinking now that I have another rig Guitar Rig going why not put it to use for FX? But when I bought it, they didn't have a manual or anything... So I guess I'm wanting to know if anyone knows anything about this rack unit... I want to know if it's possible to bypass the amp settings and just use the effects in it.... Thanks a lot in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members BradWilbanx Posted June 18, 2008 Author Members Share Posted June 18, 2008 Thanks man, didn't know if it would be there, seeing as I've never heard of it thought it may be a discontinues model. Was this a popular rack unit or not so? And what did it sell for new? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bhsbhswarp Posted June 18, 2008 Members Share Posted June 18, 2008 it was really rather costly for its time,but uses the same logic as all digitech processors,it aint a bad fx unit if you tweak it a bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BradWilbanx Posted June 18, 2008 Author Members Share Posted June 18, 2008 Cool,Well I went to the Digi site and see a lot of Manual's but it's only for the newest stuff (IF you go to the Resoure>Manuals from the Home Page) and it's not showing up just the 1101... Any other places I could find it? Or is the 1101 similar enough?Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Heineken Posted June 19, 2008 Members Share Posted June 19, 2008 I have used one of those back in the 90's for about 6 years. I had a rack setup back then. Unfortunatly it's a PREAMP/effects processor. So it sounds only good in front of a clean head or in front of a power amp, i used mine with a Marshall 9200 power amp in stereo back then. The Effects (Delay/Chorus/pitch shifters etc.) on it are FANTASTIC. Great spacious sounds on it, especially in stereo. The distorted/preamp sounds sound really digital and thin, hence the tube. And since you can't bypass the preamp section it doesn't sound very good in the loop of a good tube head. Sucks tone like hell in bypass mode since you only bypass the FX section and not the preamp. Nevertheless i really miss it for soundscape FX stuff and all, but the preamp section was just a major pain. Just my experience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
