I really like endorphin and BLOCKFISH from http://digitalfishphones.com/ for being free I get a lot of use out of them.
I've got a Squier Bronco bass that I put a humbucker from a Les Paul in. It gets used quite a bit. It's weird to play because it's short scale and it ends up sounding like a dull P-Bass. Really neat sound.
I get the most mileage out of Oktava MK012s and MK319s. I think I could reasonably do an entire project with one of them.

Yeah Oktava stuff is great for the money. I've got a set of 012's and a set 219's. Which incidentally the 219s will frequently sound than my baby bottle on vox.

Both probably in the $200-300 range, but don't disappoint in the long run.
Digitech GSP 5 -- grainy and evil sounding, in a good way. In it's intended form as a guitar processor it sucks. Try it on other stuff and you might like it.

Behringer Edison (no.....really)
Little Smokey guitar amp
I'll second the Ashly SC-50. I have the SC-55 stereo version, very cool but a little noisy. Used to get constant usage.
I'll also add the Ashly SC-40. Very underrated unit IMO.
The blue over black faced units for sure. I have a black faced one that just doesn't cut it. I don't know what they changed but it was a change for the worse IMO.

never heard of the sc-40....unless that's the instrument pre amp |
Yep that's what it is. Since we were talking ashly I figured I throw it in. Underated IMO for on the cheap. 4 unbal outputs, FX loop, bal mic out. Many still in use.

Hint: you've had one staring you in the face the last few times you've been in studio.

API 512c modules (c'mon at $500 a pop they ARE cheap)
Zoom RFX-2000 (I call it the "Destroyer of Sounds" good if you need to mess up things pretty badly)
Boss RPS-10 (Just feed something through and watch it mess up everything as a pitch shifter... it's... unique
)Safe Sound Audio P1 (Very cool preamp, borderline genius design... seriously)
DAV BG-1 (Great little pre, I prefer the rackmountable BG-2 but it's three times the price)
Ashly SC-50

........ Only bad feature is the name "Peavey". Maybe I can cover the name with duct tape. JP |
I feel the same way about my Peavey Companion 15 amp.
It's small and battery powered amp (8 D cells) and it sounds really good. The only problem was having to see the Peavey name. Instead of covering the name w/duct tape, I built an oak box w/a cane speaker grille for it (ala Mesa Boogie).

Love it on bass and gtr amps and great for vocals you need out front. I traded for mine but I hear that you can pick em up pretty cheap. Way better than cheap dbx and behringer stuff.
