Multi Effect Unit

A multi-effect pedal is one unit that is capable of fulfilling the function of multiple stomp box pedals. In the past, multi-effects pedals have commonly been known to be less effective in producing quality of sound compared to individual stomp boxes. With advancements in technology over time, this is no longer the case. Even musicians with the most advanced pedalboards may begin looking for multi-effects units to add to their rig.

SYNTH9 Synthesizer Machine

The polyphonic SYNTH9 Synthesizer Machine transforms your guitar or bass with 9 presets that were precisely tuned to emulate the most sought after, vintage synthesizer sounds ever! From searing lead synths to spacey synth pads and deep, funky, synth bass grooves, it’s all accessible. The SYNTH9 is also super easy to use with DRY volume, SYNTH volume, CTRL1 and CTRL2 knobs that provide precise control over each preset’s parameters. If you dig the kind of classic synth sounds made famous on recordings by groups like ELP, EVH, Kraftwerk, Joy Division, P-Funk, Peter Gabriel and more, we think you’ll love the SYNTH9. TIPS ON GETTING OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE FROM THE SYNTH9 1. The SYNTH9 is generally best used as the first pedal in an effects chain. Place modulation, delay, and reverb effects after the SYNTH9. The unit will not perform well if placed in the effects loop of a guitar amp. 2. For optimal playability, set the guitar’s pickup selector to the bridge pickup and turn the volume knob all the way up (“10”). 3. Avoid placing a distortion or overdrive in front of the SYNTH9, which could muddy up the input signal and cause the tracking to be unstable. If you want to add overdrive or distortion, place it after the SYNTH9. 4. The SYNTH9 has a built in compressor that is active on the synth sounds at all times. We recommend you do not insert another compressor into your signal chain while the SYNTH9 is in effect mode.

FM4 Filter Stompbox Modeling Pedal

If listening to such neat names as "Mu-tron® Bi-Phase", "Korg® X911" (guitar synthi), etc., your mouth watering and if your guitar effects are not fancy enough, you'll need an FM4 ™ Filter Modeler from Line 6. There are 13 more effects in this part to help you catapult your guitars into unimaginable dimensions. Although Line 6 has been inspired by the glorious past for this promising device, the filter and vocoder experiments by Frank Zappa, Ernie Isley, Robert Fripp and Peter Frampton are still cheeky and fresh. With the synthesizer LFO of "The Throbber" (4 waveforms, including square and triangular wave) or "Tron Up / Tron Down" with the surprising auto-wah for the selected frequency band, "Synth-O-Matic" (superbrutal filters of the Prophet® 600 and ARP Explorer) is all there to give you a completely new sound experience. Sure, your wah pedal is also a filter (and the FM4 includes a süperbes "Q Filter" model, with the play "Parked Wah" effects of Brian May Queen and Prince can be achieved). It can be even more traditional: Plug in an optional EX-1 Throttle pedal and assign different "Q Filter" settings to the "Up" and "Down" pedal positions - you already have the most flexible Wah pedal of all time (thanks 24-bit signal processing) with true stereo signal path and completely neutral "bypass" function. Like all Stompbox Modeler Line 6, the DL4 is housed in a sturdy metal case and features four footswitches for storing and recalling your sounds. There are also six controls whose functions are based on the currently selected model. With Line 6's FM4, you can send your guitar to distant, unexplored sound galaxies, transforming it into a synth ...
