RE: [Harp-L] using amp simulator

Hammer,

There have been extensive threads here on harp-l and also on harptalk
recently on effects boxes that can simulate amps, like the Digitech
units. I'd get on the websites for these lists and go into the archives
and search on 'effects' or 'digitech' and you will see lots of opinions
on both sides. Some excellent players like Richard Hunter and Chris
Michalek are advocates, while other feel that effects boxes kill tone.
But using one of these and say a keyboard amp that doubles as a PA
system is one way to get the job done, have a complete rig, and yes,
when you travel to gigs you can just bring the effects unit and plug
into the PA there, so lighter travel.

Subject: [Harp-L] using amp simulator


Hi  - 
I have been experimenting (so far just at home, not live yet) with using
an amp simulator/multi-effect box (zoom 505II), with the idea of
plugging it direct to the PA when playing live, rather then using an amp
onstage - I got the idea watching Paul deLay, who has a similar setup
Does anyone on the list have experience with this kind of thing, or any
useful tips on the subject? Thanks Hammer
