The end of the PC sound processing is near....The damn thing sounds crystal clear. I must admit that I'm pretty impressed by it's clarity, especially on the reverb tip.

It's depth is pretty good also. Much better than the VST's I used before. Every single beat sounds way more alive and crispy now compared to the mixdowns from my PC.

However, I noticed that when an FX is applied, the stereo field is widened pretty much. I guess I should figure it out sooner or later but is it because I am applying them on stereo samples?

Anyhow, I wonder how the good FX units sound since most of the people inside here say that the EB-16 is nothing more than a basic entry-level fx processor.

It's not entry level but not pro either imo. I've made some incredible fx's on beats only using my eb-16. All in all, if it fits what you need to do then do it. Don't listen to everyone else, just do you.

try adjusting the q in the filter part if you want to mess with reverb. it took me a while to figure out that sometimes that extra reverb was coming from the filter part of the eb 16

you can adjust the width on some effects in the mix options, maybe only the phase effects. Also level and pan for each module of the effect chain. also try re-arrageing the fx chain for different effects.
