Zoom RFX1100 Effects Customer Review

Overall: 4.5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Overall this is a great effects processor with most of the effects you'd expect in this class. If you're a budget musician and are tired of cheap Behringer effects, then this is a good choice for quality reverbs and unique effects.
Sound
The soundquality is good, realistic reverbs and clean sound.
Features
It has many useful effects (like the rind mod, yikes!), but a little lcd display would have been nice. I like the XLR-input in the front, handy for the built in vocoder.
Quality
The finish is smooth, and the knobs are very comfortable and easily tweakable.
Value
I payed 1750 NOK for it, about 200$, and its worth it. More expensive than e.g. Behringer fx-processors with the same features but the RFX-1100 has much better quality effects, suitable for professional recording.
Manufacturer Support
Only judning by their website.. which is ok.
The Wow Factor
The design of the unit is quite clean, the design is black and white, with blue text. Sexy with the analog-feeling knobs.
