Lowly guitar player here. Long-time Fractal guy - Axe-FX II and AX8.
A good friend, a truly great bass player, wants delay and chorus FX for his 8-string. This guy plays a lot of notes, mainly a jazz-ish vein. Once he has the options, he might enjoy the other blocks. He does not want amp modeling.
I'm doing some research for him and think for what a high-quality delay pedal will run, he's halfway or more to an FX8. And the Fractal should be the ultimate unit, right? I'm thinking he needs ducking, maybe some mod, and ability to save patches.
Assumed is there is FX8-Edit that runs a lot like my AX8-Edit? And that the bass' input isn't an issue. I'm assuming active pickups, but don't know that.
Any advice for me? I'm pretty savvy with gear, but bass is out of my wheelhouse.
Thanks!
Greg
