WITH THE SORT of "extras" we've been looking at here, it would have been quite easy for Alesis to justify the release of an entirely new effects unit and left owners of existing Quadraverbs to hawk their machines around the shops looking for a good part-exchange deal or chance their arm in the classified columns - in other words, upgrading the hard way. Similarly, it wouldn't have been difficult for them to justify adding at least another 50 quid to the price of the Quadraverb to cover all the extra features, and put it down to inflation. That they have done neither will, I'm sure, reflect very positively on them and ensure some loyal customer support in the years to come.

Though by no means the last word in their respective areas of operation, all these effects are extremely usable and as in so many other areas of hi-tech equipment, help blur the line drawn between creative and non-creative instruments. Recommended.
