Sonicbar Rockstage

MULTI

Description

Basically, RockStage cracks his way into the multi effects' category. But if you take it apart, you can see it as something else, like: Sonicake RockStage gives you exactly what you want and need - that Marshall half stack type of distortion crunch tone. Adjusting the gain knob, you can get your tone from AC/DC's saturated Plexi break-up to Guns N' Roses classic JCM-800 crunch, to early Van Halen's fully over-the-top brown sound. Yeah, it has it all. Just get up on stage, and you are ready to rock! To make it quick and simple, and avoid using those confusing words like "luscious", "natural", let's put it this way: the reverb can expand your tone from a small room to a big concert hall; The delay is analog-voicing. They both run on digital algorithms, but they sound analog. Find any YouTube demos of RockStage, you'll know what I'm talking about. Personally I think, 80s wouldn't sound like 80s if without the chorus. To me, that's basically the cornerstone of the tone from that particular era. RockStage has a BBD-style, analog-sounding chorus in it, which I'm sure you'll dig. And here is a little hack on it: if you set RATE to minimum, and DEPTH to maximum, you'll get yourself a "Leslie Rotary" sound. Pretty cool, huh? The pedal is built like a tank. Heavy-duty metal casing. Well constructed. LED knobs indicating the working state of the pedal, which would make it easy for you to gig in a dark venue. What's more? RockStage has a cab sim in. Yeah, you can directly plug it into the PA system or your sound card, for gigging and home studio recordings.
