It's digital, pedal released in 1994 I think. So not exactly super digital.
There are all kinds of effects.
UTILIZATION
Probably the easiest to use that I've had multi-effects. See my old and new gear to have a point of comparison, I've had quite ...
SOUND QUALITY
I sold this pedal after 1 or 2 years, I think, so around 1995-1996. Suffice to say that my memories are vague. I was replaced by a Digitech RP6 and a GX-700 by Boss. Then I got a Digitech Studio Quad. In short, a long series of toys before putting the budget and move to TC Electronic G-Force, circa 1999, I always today 15 years later.
Briefly, 50 € secondhand I'm not sure that we can ask for more. Is it transparent? Probably not, but when you buy this kind of thing almost as vintage as my aching knees, it is not for transparency.
Distos are pretty rotten as I recall.
OVERALL OPINION
I got 1 or 2 years from 1994 I believe. I've never regretted it, as I have never regretted the slew of other multi-effects I had the following years. I was changing every year. Not because I am a dissatisfied but because it was really terrible eternal.
If you are 50 € is not a bad choice: complete, easy to use, I think rather reliable (Made in Japan, I guess, something unthinkable today where everything is made in China and lasts 2 years). If you have 500 € or more opt for TC Electronic (archi intuitive, its really pro). It seems that the Lexicon MPX G2 is also very good, but very annoying to use; however, it would be more transparent for a guitar that TC.
Otherwise, there is also the POD, in the same price, at least there good distos and amp simulations correct, things totally absent from the ME-6.
