With the exception of Paul Tanti's cool reverbs, this is my favorite third party FX in sound quality and graphic originality. In one convenient round package you have flanging, delays, distortion and phasing. Orbitone's FX are pretty good but with all apologies to Orbitone, personally, I would give the slight edge to this device.

I'll second that. The Zorba is a great package. One thing I really like is having all the effects in one interface promotes creative use of the effect interactions. That and being able to sync the whole thing to a MIDI clock make it one of my most used effects processors.
