By now we all know it's not the guitar, the amp, or the pedal; it is completely about the guitarist. A good one can make any piece of equipment sound good. Just like you do Mr Herman! I wish I could jam like you do. I've been practicing my 3 string CBG, but I developed tendonitis. So now I have to curtail my practicing, but I am not giving up. Be even if I practiced 24 hours a day, I would never be as good as you are. But that doesn't matter, its about the love of music creation. And I do enjoy that part very much. So I will keep playing even though I am not very good at all. But again I enjoy music and playing it is the best thing ever.

Good to see an unbiased review of the Donner Arena 2000. I recently purchased one for use in my budget home studio, and have been very impressed with the range of amp, cabs and effects on offer. I would like to add that this unit also features a really good mobile app, and can be controlled almost entirely through Bluetooth, making this even more versatile than many other much higher priced multi FX units.

@kenjicarlos8402 4 ай бұрын

does it allow for pitch shifting in the sense of a digitech drop? i ain't shelling out 250 for a pedal that only does that

@ensignbodybag 4 ай бұрын

Sadly, the one flaw in the otherwise brilliant collection of effects is the pitch shifter. This effect is pretty weak, to the point where I haven't used it in any of my custom patches. If you are looking to use the pitch shifting effect a lot, then maybe this unit is not for you.

Does anybody know if he is playing through amp/speakers and mic it up to computer or if he is playing with the effect unit as a USB interface/soundcard directly into the computer ? I was thinking about replacing my Scarlett Focusrite Solo/Studio with something I can use both to play and record to the computer while also bring it to band practice to use for effects and wah wah to the amp I have there and also maybe play live with it. I wonder if I use it as a DAW/USB interface to the computer if the quality is the same or perhaps even better than my Focusrite USB interface for recording and such. It also would be interesting to compare this to the Headrush MX5, it is double the money at around 500$ but has DSP core/cores. The Headrush MX5 is a pretty popular "budget" choice compared to the Line 6 Helix and more expensive stuff, but is it double as good as the Donner Arena 2000 sound and feature-wise, would be interesting to know.
