Behringer VIRTUALIZER 3D FX2000 Multi-Effects Processor: Why I Use It 

@Mee Omi I’m not familiar with the previous model, but I would generally recommend the latest model in this regard. As fast as technology advances these days, most electronics companies can’t wait to release their next generation devices so they can stay competitive. Thanks for watching.

I had this multiFX in chroshairs for quiet a while. I dont realy need it because I already have BOSS GT-100 and plenty of software FX on my computer. But I dont have any FX for my rack unit and using guitar pedals for everything feels like doing something wrong. So, this still stays on my crosshairs and it can do amp sims and distortions so it is also a guitar friendly unit. It would be cool if it also had USB out for recording but I can just use USB on my Studio Live mixer or my audio interface.

It was explained to me that it can only string two effects at a time. So for s guitarist not helpful at all really. Someone tell me Sweetwater is wrong

Glad I could help. Thanks so much for watching.

I will do that 😊. Thanks for watching and wishing you the very best. 👍🏿

Your welcome. Thanks so much for watching. 👍🏿

The unit is just a crazy good bargain for the money. Thanks for watching and sharing. 👍🏿

Thanks so much for watching and sharing. I really appreciate you taking the time to explain your prespective. You may want to also check out "Behringer VIRTUALIZER 3D FX2000 Multi-Effects Processor: Vocal Effects" and "Behringer VIRTUALIZER 3D FX2000 Multi-Effects Processor: Guitar Effects" on this channel. Those videos offer even more insight into this cool unit. Wishing you the very best. 👍🏿

It really is a great buget unit and then some. Thanks for watching and sharing.👍🏿

lol. 😊 Thanks for watching.

Check out my video called "MIDI System Exclusive (SysEx): Quick Summary" on this channel. That should help. Thanks for watching.

You should give it a go. 👍🏿

You can control Parameter Algorithms via MIDI on this device. This is extensive. Parameter Algorithms are all assigned a MIDI Control number that allows you to control the value range. With this, you would need to play with this functionality to get the desired results for a specific effect. I hope this information helps.

@@PowercoatMusic so you can basically controll everything in this unit but not the delay sync ? And if it's midi-sysex compliant, is there a pc midi editor or something like that? Tnx for all the infos :)

@@testohtoby I’m not saying that you can’t control the delay sync via MIDI. I’m suggesting that you should play with the unit to see what it can do in that regard. It appears that this may be possible, but I have not done it. If it works for you, share it with the thread? Also, just about any MIDI SYSEX librarian PC software program should work (many are free). Some DAWs have them as a function as well.

@@PowercoatMusic I use some CTRLR panels but I know almost 0 about sysex, I'll try it once I'll buy it 👌👌👌

​@@testohtoby No worries. Check out my intro to SYSEX video (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-50PacyJmXuY.html) on this channel. Lots of good information there. 👍🏿

Yes. It's suggested that you place the BBE last in your signal chain. Thanks for watching.

@@PowercoatMusic Thank you! I'm looking for a compressor for vocals. Cannot decide between Behringer, DBX, Alesis 3630 or even Art Pro VLA II. It's just for home karaoke.

I use both as needed. This unit is also a part of my external mastering chain.

The bottom line is if you like the way your Quadraverb sounds, keep it and use it when you feel it’s required. However, if you want to add more power and dimension to your guitar tracks, budget-wise, the FX2000 is a great investment. After using it if then you feel like the FX2000 is more of what you want, then you may want to sell your Quadraverb. There is a saying that I haven’t heard in a long time…”You can never have too many effects in your studio”. 😊 Thanks for watching and sharing. 👍🏿

@@PowercoatMusic nice one, thank you for your reply, think I shall buy one next pay 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁

Agreed. I does take some getting used to. Thanks for watching.

@@PowercoatMusic thanks very much

For details on how to do this with the DP-24, watch my video "Tascam DP24/DP32 Digital Portastudio: Using External Effects", on this channel.

You could control it with a MIDI foot pedal. Also balanced TRS is strongly recommended. Thanks for watching. 👍🏿

Great catch! The unit is a vocal harmony processor. I have had mine for more than 15 years. It has a vocal algorithm that produces a smooth analog sounding vocal accompaniment that is just unique, realistic, and rich and I love it. The newer units just don’t sound that good to me. It generates up tp 5 part harmony and has MIDI. I used it on the song “Linger” on this channel, especially on the chorus. I'll review it in the future. Thanks for watching. 👍🏿

No, they are not Event. They are Mackie and M-Audio speakers. For more information check out my video "Mackie CR3 vs M-Audio AV42: Which is Best?", on this channel. Thanks for watching. 👍🏿

Yes you can. Thanks for watching.

​@@PowercoatMusichow would the set up work? Cuz surprise I bought the unit and it doesn't sound good going through it. I have the record player plugged into the unit, then into my speakers and all the bass and "quality" get washed out severely. Any advice for a better playback? Perhaps I need receiver, or a better record player?

I'm just trying to learn about this myself for live vocals... but I think your limited two just the 2 that are already linked together from the factory. I also wanted to know if you can run a delay into reverb then another delay, etc. I'm concluding you can't really STACK, you can only select a setting already consisting of a single delay and reverb combo. Unfortunately, most of us haven't gone to a trade school to have the tech groundwork of what the manufacturer assumes you already know. This video is definitely helpful though.

I don't think it supports dual function?

Yes you can. Thanks for watching. 👍🏿

@@PowercoatMusic Thank you for your response! So I can set up some of the fx in series? How do I do this? And how many fx can I combine in one user preset? (ex. can I have eq, distortion, reverb, and delay all in series in one preset?)

Effects 61 to 71 are multi-effects algorithms, which allow different effects to be used simultaneously. Effect 61, for example, can make a solo guitar “wider” with chorus and simultaneously add a room reverb. Please note that you can modify the structure of a multi-effect (see below). CHORUS & REVERB: This algorithm combines the popular chorus with a gold plate effect (as in algorithm 2). FLANGER & REVERB: The combination of flanger and reverb effects. LESLIE & REVERB: The input signal, modulated to a degree that you specify, is then processed with a reverb effect. This effect works especially well with keyboards and guitars. PITCH & REVERB: The pitch shifter can be detuned in semitone or cent steps. The reverb, on the other hand, can be controlled in time and mixing ratio. DELAY & REVERB: Delay and reverb are the most common combinations for vocals, solo guitars, etc. The reverb used here is a gold plate, a room that features a distinctive brilliance and can be used in many ways. TREMOLO & REVERB: The intensive variation in volume of the tremolo gains more depth and wideness with the reverb. PHASER & REVERB: The combination of a classic stereo phaser and a reverb effect. CHORUS & DELAY: While the chorus can contribute to a wideness of the signal, interesting repetition effects can be adjusted with the delay. Vocals can be given a distinctive effect without making the voice sounding blurred. FLANGER & DELAY: This effect is just right for creating a modern, slightly “spacey” vocal sound. PITCH & DELAY: A repetition of the audio signal, with an oscillatory effect added by the pitch shifter. TREMOLO & DELAY: A fast or slow, intensive variation of volume, which is additionally processed with a panorama effect. Thanks for watching. 👍🏿

Thank you so much

Please view the DP-24 playlist on this channel. I explain in one of those presentations exactly how to do it. Also lots of other good information there. Thanks for watching. 👍🏿

Yes. That's part of what it's designed to do. Thanks for watching.

A wise purchase. Thanks for watching and sharing. 👍🏿

I enjoy your channel very much. Keep up the good work.

@@fldrummerman I will do my best. Thanks so much for watching. 👍🏿

Usaría los envíos y retornos de efectos en el mezclador para hacer eso. Espero que esto ayude y gracias por mirar. 👍🏿

I did a sound demo of this unit on this channel. Check it out to hear what it sounds like, and thanks for watching.

This unit adds effects to audio. For more information about what it can do and how it works, check out my videos “Behringer VIRTUALIZER 3D FX2000 Multi-Effects Processor: Guitar Effects” and “Behringer VIRTUALIZER 3D FX2000 Multi-Effects Processor: Vocal Effects” on this channel.

@@PowercoatMusic can I use it for vocal also?

@@salinkumarsk Most definitely 👍🏿

@@PowercoatMusic thank u

This video was not intended to be a sound demo. Please watch my video, "Behringer VIRTUALIZER 3D FX2000 Multi-Effects Processor: Guitar Effects" on this channel. That video has a guitar sound demo. Thanks for watching.

Yes Im disappointed too, yap yap yap ! I WANT TO HEAR IT !
