"Great Mastering Effects!"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
I gave it a 10, even though it doesn't have a optical input. But, overall i love it.
Sound
The effects have a good sound, but,I bought the pfx-2200 for the Final Mastering banks & let me tell you it's worth more than $199 just for this effect alone. Also it add a clean punchy sound to the bass guitar. To me the only down side to the pfx2200 is i wish they would have put an opitical in.
Features
The Final mastering effects are great!!
Ease of Use
Easy to use. But, i would read the manual before using it. The manaul has charts for each bank, this is real helpful, especial for the 4 edit knobs.
Quality
Built to last, knobs/buttons feel good. I have the zoom 512 effect unit for about 20 years. I don't use it anymore , but, it still works. Do i need to say anymore about zoom quality.
Value
It's worth every penny.
Manufacturer Support
Never had too.
The Wow Factor
it's doesn't matter how it looks to me, it's how it sounds.
