Zoom B6 Bass Guitar Multi-Effect Pedal

I bought the Zoom B6 as I wanted a simple setup without having to buy £2k's worth of pedal board, including a DI, audio interface, compressor and other effects. Actually, I bought the Helix Pod Express Bass initially, but after three weeks I couldn't get a sound out of it I liked, despite some of the demos on YouTube.

The B6 has a large number of decent clean tones straight out of the box, which can be edited in a similar fashion to the more expensive Helix's and Anagrams. You have a choice of not one but for DI's that all sound good. A drum machine, tuner, built in audio interface and app you can use on your Mac or PC. It is quite a large device, but rugged so should fair well being gigged, and the screen is clear and easy to view with it on the floor.

The only issue really is that the firmware and software have not been updated since the initial release and there is no app for Android. In practice though, a good bass tone four years ago is no different from a good bass tone now. I can't think of any features it doesn't have so no updates are non-issue, IMHO, although I have only had the device for a month or so and haven't gigged with it yet.

I am very happy with my purchase and Bax Music had the best price I could find and with free shipping.

Zoom B6 Bass Guitar Multi-Effect Pedal

Très bon produit qui correspond à mes attentes. En tant que débutant, ne jouant pas la guitare même si c'est un appareil pour cette utilisation première. C'est une pédale multi effet avec deux entrées Jack stéréo et 3 entre Jack je ne connais pas trop leurs utilité. Il y a à un peut près une 100 tainne près programmé et de l'espace pour programmer soi même les effets. Il y à un looper rec qui permet de créer des boucles et aussi les enregistrer sur sd. ÉCRANS lisible et tactile. J'utilise se si avec d'autres appareils musicaux, cela donne un grin de guitare et défois y un niveau de guitare proéminent. Ce qui est dommage avec les deux entre Jack, on est obligé d'avoir un seule instrument active soit droite ou gauche mais pas les deux. Cette option où les deux instrument actifs n'existe pas.

Zoom B6 Bass Guitar Multi-Effect Pedal

Top apparaat. de preset effecten klinken erg goed. de looper kan lang opnemen, tuner is accuraat. je kan het gebruiken als audio interface (nog wel met een mini USB aansluiting i.p.v. USB C wat tegenwoordig standaard is)
touchscreen display.
