Hi all,

What fx pedal do you use with your MPC? I want to spice up my MPC1000, not really feeling the onboard fx. Looking for cheap fx pedal or multifx pedals.

So, what are some cheap good sounding fx pedals you love?

I was first thinking of the Zoom MS70-CDR. It sounds good, but I don't like the menus.
I'm looking for things like: delay, reverb, bitcrushing, compression, overdrive etc. Do you know any other multi effect with more knobs? Preferably small. :)

Is the NUX PG-2 any good? Or the Line 6 Pocket POD?
It doesn't need to be multi fx. Multiple relatively cheap fx are good also.

I'm thinking of buying the CP-26 Snake Bite reverb. Sounds really nice.

Thanks

I use a bunch of outboard effects with the mpc 1000 to resample. Works really well
I have built some pedals - phaser, delay, tremolo, envelope follower and chorus
I also have a lexicon lxp5 multiple effects unit. Really useful. Cost $100.
Outboard multi effects units sell for little and seem great value
Pitch shifting on bass is very useful
