poncin « It could have been very well »
Published on 02/14/14 at 12:46There are 16 guitar models, body types 28 and 40 + 1 physical effects equalizer.
Nothing is editable via the pc
The technology is digital.
There is an XLR / jack for mic input jack for electro-acoustic headphone output or to a mixer and an amp or 2 outputs for stereo output.
USB connector for possible update
UTILIZATION
The general configuration is not very simple.
This is not very intuitive.
After when you have understood and retained, it va.L editing becomes even easier.
The manual is pretty clear and yet I could not find the boost setting before asking someone :-(
SOUND QUALITY
At first you must choose a model and then a guitar body.
And then I find little difference if not almost nonexistent.
Yeah. I say or rather I write.
I use it with a harmonica but I first tested with Lag Tramontane.Ben here.
For me, the simulations guitar and microphone is useless, I hear no difference.
Against the effects by 40, then it's ok.
The reverb is very very bien.Compresseurs chouettes.Les delays, Equalizers, chorus, flanger etc. .. well.
I like pretty much everything
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for 1 week.
I used zoom G2.1u, g7.1u RP355 and nothing to do with audio but for the harmonica RP355 emulation dreanough jumbo and it was not so bad.
Features that I like most:
compact, robust connectivity and effects
What I like least:
NO SOFTWARE to control the multi purpose and LA is not bien.Parce I do not play live and that it is much easier to make adjustments on screen rather than on the pedal because the buttons are small and few practices (I shoot, I shoot I shoot I also returns ...)
MORE as there are only 20 presets savable I guess I'll have to get pen and paper for the first preset recall me when I pass in the 21st because you do not buy this unit to limit yourself to 20 patches
A2.1 The zoom was a software dedicated to him.
If you look on the website of zoom, I think the A3 is the only one not having a pc program.
Perhaps updating the firmware but it's been a year since the unit is out and it does not seem to be anything planned.
Last negative point others have already written there are only 2 simultaneous effects in use.
Which is a bit low if you use a compressor or Equalizer.
Value for money can be a bit expensive.
You do again this choice?
I could buy a 80 € A2.1 I thought I put a "little" more to get better.
I do not know the A2 and I suppose that sounds A3 must be more efficient, there are some differences between years 2 but the A2 had a dedicated software, a backup option and 8 simultaneous effects (good c is perhaps a little too much)
3 effects and software for backup and settings I could go up to 8.5 or 9 because the effects are very good but it just 2 effects and it's frustrating for 170th I put 6.5.
Perhaps we judge me severely, but the product is not completely successful.
Edit:
It seems that I plant at the A2 and does not dedicated software.
I have fewer regrets the kick but it does not prevent it lacks A3
