Zoom Bass Effects

I Bought this unit at The Music Works In Anchorage Alaska Retail $145 and paid $99 I acquired The unit for a headphone practice amp with stereo effects once I opend it up and put power on I was amazed at the sound of the unit and the fact that it can be used for up to 17 hours on one set of batteries the sound was full and the effects were great and the controls are easy to use pluged in to an amp the stereo effects were gone plastic stomp box with a two button foot switch fair quality it is a great practice unit for private playing and the sound is great a lot of fun for the begginer or pro This review was originally published on http://www.musicgearreview.com

I wanted to get a Digitech but i didnt have the money so i used my old friend ebay and got this unit dirt cheap YAY! this is a great unit especially beacuse of the znr(zoom Noise Reudction) makes my halfstack sound like its not even on Dislikes humm i dont know the only thing i noticed is that on stage it gets noisy beacuse the base is made of plastic and every time you change you hear a big click but its liveable and i love this unit Ohh yea one other thing if you play and switch alot the only other thing is that the swich buttons are small like i said its a plastic unit (like all Zooms) but its well made. ive herd that the 1/4" jacks mess up but not on mine yet thank God I LOVE THIS UNIT BUY ONE IF YOU GET THE CHANCE!

I bought zoom 506 in a local store near my house for the price of $100, I think, I can't be too sure on the price. I bought it mostly because of his price compared with the ones on single efects pedals, and I was just a begginer The zoom 506 has a considerable number of efects, the most common are all there, and throught that we can achieve some really nice sounds from the box. It's very light and small, basically very easy to carry. Another thing is that it is very very easy to use, in about one day you become very at ease with machine. It has big, and I mean really big, problems with noise, so much that the things that I liked about zoom 506 goes down the drain. When we use compressor or limiter you can forget about sound quality, there's nothing to do, it just doesn't go away. Another thing is that we don't have parameters within the efects, so you don't have a lot of space to play around with. The equalizer is very limited and changing banks on live gigs is a very risky work. It's very well built with exception of the buttons on the sides that get stuck very easily. I bought zoom 506 about 4 years ago and it still works without any problem, I never had a malfunction. I recommend zoom 506 only for begginers, to get at ease playing whit efects, zoom 506 certainly does the job. It's very easy to use and you can make really nice sounds with it, the big problem it's his noise, it becomes your worst nightmare. for it's price there's nothing better.
