Spider IV smart harmonizer/pitch glide

[Hawkbill1988]

Is this feature set of the Spider IV similar to a Digitech Whammy in it's capabilities? Can i make my guitar sound like a bass with it? Can i cover Jack White/Tool/Audioslave/RATM songs with it? After getting screwed hard on a used Spider III im considering purchasing a IV and would appreciate some user imput on this seemingly desireable feature.

I made my spider IV do this once. I wanted it to sound like a guitar and bass at the same time. So I could achieve a "Royal Blood" sound. I was able to do so for a while too. Then something unexpected happend. My amp stopped producing a quality sound. With master volume set to half. I was hardly getting a sound. Barely any distortion when active. I'm not sure what heppend, it just felt like the amp died. Anybody have comments on this?

Have you tried a factory reset?  Note that you should save your custom user patches (using an FBV MkII, a computer and Spider Edit) before doing this as all the user locaitons will reset.
