Hi all,
I'm on the hunt for a new effects unit to complement my RM4/RT2/50.
I've got a lend of a Lexicon MPX G2 for a bit and I'm about to try it out but in the back of mind, I keep thinking about the Eventide H3000 that all my favourite players use to have in their racks in the 90's.
Living in Australia as I do, there are not too many H3000's to try out so I'm seeing if many people here have had the chance to play through one, and if so what they thought of it.
Are they obselete compared to today's technology? Are there much cheaper new units around today that pull the sounds that made the unit famous?
I've also heard there is an issue with loading times when switching presets. How did players get around this back in the day?
Thanks in advance,
Rick
