Lexicon MPX100, I've got two of em and a MPX500, but I mostly use the mpx100. It's simple, good quality fx & sound and is fully midi controllable. These should come in quite cheap second hand.

The lexichip is also used in 960's, pcm80&90's etc, all the high end lexicon stuff which is good...extremely good lol. So this is stripped down cheapest of all lexicon but with all the features to hook it up to an pc or mpc. The s/pdif comes in handy since most cards these day come equiped with it thus preventing loss of signal. The 20bit A/D - D/A converters funny enough sparked up the sm58 so they're oke in my book. I got 2 racked up the control room and we actualy use em on most of the recordings. www.bigmouth.com and hit up the portfolio for some examples of recorded bands. Any fx you'll hear would be the mpx100's or a Line6 pod, the tape delays on the reggae tracks or else are space echo's.
