Hello!

Up for sale is the wonderful Zoom Studio 1204 !

Multi-effects rackmount processor with TONS of (i.e. 100!) programmable / editable presets. Digital device. The main effects categories this unit has includes Equalizer, pitch modulation, delay, and reverb. All effects can be used at the same time, which is great. Within the modulation category, you can set the unit for flange, chorus, phaser, tremolo, just to name a few. Connections are dual inputs and stereo outputs, a midi input, as well as a connector for power supply. Power supply is not included, but we have tested the 1204 unit with my personal power adaptor and have found the processor to be completely and fully functional. The front panel also has a mic in input. 

UTILIZATION

The actual face of the processor is easy to understand and utilize. As far as actually navigating the presets in order to tweak them or modify them, the unit takes some playing around with. This is where the manual, though long, comes in. (I would put the link to it here, but ebay unfortunately does not allow this.) The manual is very self-explanatory and explains the operation simply and easily. The only reason the manual is so long and why it takes a long time to figure out the extent of this unit's capabilities is because there are so many options/sounds that can be coaxed out of this little unit.

SOUND QUALITY

For being digital, the effects on this little unit are very solid, and many of them are sufficiently realistic. The reverbs are very top notch and sound great .... I would say they are very much comparable to the famed Lexicon rackmount reverbs ! If you want to sound like standard Eddie Van Halen, or if you want his "Unchained" flanging sound, this unit can give you both, and is pretty much right on the money. Even has some cool off the wall effects like a vocoder and rotary speaker type effect ! Overall, you've got so many sounds at your disposal with just this one unit. Much cheaper than buying several pedals, or even worse, several amps. I use this unit with my Limited Edition artwork Epiphone Les Paul Junior as well as my Gibson Vanguard (both for sale here on ebay), and it is a perfect combo !

OVERALL OPINION

I have been using this for a while now. The more I get used to it, there is nothing I really don't like about it.  Even if you are more of a purist, plugging straight from the guitar to the amp, this unit will make you such a tonal chameleon....you have so many options for changing my sound depending on the song, it's great! I have played so many similar units and this seems to be one of the better ones. Most Zoom Multi-effects are, in my opinion. As soon as I plugged it in and played a couple of chords and arpeggios, I was already sold. You can end up playing hours on end before putting it away, that's how much fun this unit is! This may possibly the only money you'll have to spend on effects equipment.  You really won't see yourself needing any other pedals, unless you upgrade and replace the ones you have currently, or if you want to integrate them with this system, which you can. So many sounds and options all in one unit.  You will probably not regret the choice to buy this !

Please read the condition description in addition to reading this listing description as well as look at the pictures of the item carefully.

Thanks so much for your interest and I hope you buy it now!!!!!
