Re: latest reasonable price echo unit with stored patches

Just to say Ecca modded my Eccamatic eTap2HW in recent weeks and the automation kit was added. It makes all the difference where storing your own echo settings are concerned having easy access to these patches and the display is really good and clear.
I also own a Zoom G3x and as Dave says they are great value for money with lots of modelled effects on board and a volume swell pedal which controls many of the effects as well if you want. Lots of options and EQ and amp simulation. Like Dave I did my own echo sets and got great results. The only thing I am not too keen on is the amp simulation as it is not quite as good as say a POD. For £130 approx. it is a serious contender for a budget echo unit. Well made too, not heavy, but light and portable. IOt will run on a set of rechargeable AA batteries as well.
