As per title, need a cheap hardware outboard to run live vocals through, with echo/delay/reverb settings.
Signal chain will be running as;
Mic > EFX > Mixer > Output
So don't need to worry about send/receive compatibility. Ideally <£100 second hand...any suggestions?
Thinking something like a cheap Kaoss Pad would do the business (and look pretty, bonus), just wondering if there are any alternatives I'm overlooking.

Plenty of guitar peds that would get the job done. Maybe something from Boss? I really want to recommend Electro Harmonix pedals. But there shiz is botique prices.

The 303 can do this. Don't know if that's why you got this, or the 303 is doing something else.

Interesting hadn't thought of using the 303 as it was already assigned to processing the samples from Cool Edit so would mean I couldn't use them in tandem.

They VD400 is only $25 online, so it's worth a punt regardless, cheers

if you dont like it, ill buy it off you, no worries. im going to put 3 in a rack, get crazy internal routing.
theyre very good. bit short maximum delay is the only (slight) issue, but that can be tweaked internally too...
