Hi - I'm getting an OTS soon. All my multi-effects are pretty old, and mostly for studio use. I don't have any good stomp boxes worth mentioning.

Now, I don't like a lot of heavy effects. I'm going to stick with a little compression, short delay, some chorus. A couple things I play I use tremolo, volume pedal, and reverb on. So I'd rather not have a separate stomp box for each function.

What's out there on today's market that's good, and would enhance, not detract from, the OTS? I would prefer it didn't have an amp modeler or preamp in it, unless it is 100% defeatable.

Thanks for your suggestions - Buzzer

I use a Rocktron Xpression.
Downsides
- Kind of hard to programm
- It suffers from occaisonal static pops.
- Only one type of reverb. There are no seperate plate, hall, room and spring               reverbs. With some tweaking you can get close to those efefcts but it needs some work.
- same with most of the other effects. you have to set them up
- no pc tweaking.

Positive sides
- It has an internal mixer. Yoy can switch the unit to parrallel. The dry tone doesn't go through an A/D converter. only the effects are converted and are mixed with the original signal. That way your nice OTS will remain the same and you can mix in the reverb/delay etc.
- nice effects
- it has a pretty good leslie
- you don't need to use a seperate fx loop to get the right signal
