Amp simulation
simulation hp
effect (flanger, chorus, wah wah, volume ,....)

UTILIZATION

Very easy to use. Used to it very quickly. As against the display and very low especially when there are games of lights in concert: a lot of glare on the screen. And the case is rather fragile, very Gnant regulirement when playing on stage, and even more Gnant when we tend to jump all over the place, rolling on the ground ..... (It's been more than rafistolle do because I just had a lot bouji tendency on stage)

SOUND QUALITY

The diffrent distortion (amp sim pedal or distortion of) are very effective: the blues, metal, hard rock, jazz, brief .... everything is there: you just take the time to make his rglages.
Some Effects "bizare" as the Filtron (its a duck) "octave ",..... can very quickly turn your guitar into sythtiseur. Pity there have any more.

OVERALL OPINION

It's been 2 years that I have. Frankly it's a good little machine for its price. But I strongly discourages the person playing regulirement on stage (or so the scene very very quiet) because the case is not very costo. The selectors are also very low (compared pdalier the boss of the most costo Marchetti: I have a boss distortion pedals of unbreakable =) But Sonnora the distortion, the effects are very nice. Using very easy, and the number of bonk enough. Nothing in this exeptional case, but it's a very good way of discovering the rack multi purpose, and make people want to have a lot llus performance, see even to buy all the pedals INTERESTED effects.
Do not hesitate, but be aware that this is temporary toy that will make you want to have better, or that you will quickly break (hard life in my opinion no more than 3 years, even if mine maintenance I would be the content)

The Korg AX-1500G possde a pletord effects numrique dj Describes other fans of this little bomb ..
For my part, I find trs complte, much more than the ME-50 BOSS, more opportunities for combining the noise level are much more impressive!
Level connection, we note the prsence a headset and a hifi out what s'avre handy!
Longer need a guitar amp!

UTILIZATION

Well, in use, if we stick to the factory pre-sets, it's not too complicated but when you get into the Fast Fashion of his personal, it's dj more complicated (if you're a perfectionist sre well!)
level documentation, there is a definition of each DIFFERENT effects in the leaflet, which is enough for me.

SOUND QUALITY

Then the ca dpend! In fact for the sound, we must find the tips!
Let me explain, for example, I want a straight forward its amp electric and super-charged, well I put:
A disto-"metal", with gain 10, treble 8, medium 3, 10 bass
A simulation-modern amp 4x12 with 4.7 in the presence and especially between 7 and 9 "air" (my Premire trick, I do not know what it is but the sound has changed compltement , the ca energizes a max (I just discovering!))
-And the second trick is to put a wah-wah bass "traveler" at the same time, giving a more dirty, hot, and extremely precise and powerful (do not forget to keep open the pedals!)

In fact, for the sound of egg, you have to use the bte shuffled and sometimes make weird!

Otherwise, for the best sound possible, it is better to connect the AX-1500G fi directly to a string (of tough best), the sound is much better made than on any amp, colder than a can of those lights but prcis with distos more biting and gain more lev.

Oh yeah! The rvrbes have done everything gniales, trsralistes and the most beautiful effect in clean!

OVERALL OPINION

Sincrement, saw its price (which has + down lately, because of its quality, since The definition of the effects from the price, I think it's a compulsory purchase if rve effects of a multi cheap, efficient (especially connects mixer), friendly, and that the tank is not too ide have to learn self-same matriser gear! !
Personally, I took six months before the matriser perfectly.
Well ok, some say (especially one who post just below) that this effect is multi plutt fragile, personal, I did a small concert with, a will he held and had a right some beer, but on the other ct's true, one compartment is not hyper rsistant boss!
But when we made the scne you do not have to jump feet attach to the equipment not?! It's the same, me when I play with my BC Rich Platinum Pro Beast (that bites a max ki hehehe), I do not have to send my guitar in the air and the same opportunity to skewer few spectators in passing! A multi-effect is like a scratch, you must take care

That says it all ...

UTILIZATION

Comprehensive manual, easy setup.

SOUND QUALITY

I use it on a mesa f50: I use just the effects of bases but before buying the f50 I did all go through this pedal, and his silent more than correct: you just need to spend some time it ... I even do two concerts and I play the sound directly without going through an amp.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for over 4 years ... buy 2500 francs! the era the year of his total output guitar: never had any problem with it's solid ..
Only thing annoying: if you are on stage and it is day ... remember much of your patch because the screen is unreadable in the sun ...

Full effect in the Bo-bote ... Amp simulator (saturated, clean, acoustic ...) speaker simulation, classic modulation effects (up to the Univibe) effects on the expression pedal (with an interesting tap tempo) and spacial effects (reverb , deadlines)
It's modlisation numrique REMS (pork is like salvation, it says it!).
Lack a reverse time limit and a real intelligent harmonizer (but even if there silent li I do not serve).
And it's Stereo! And for the same sound, you have a channel A and channel B (ie two distos to the same effect)!

UTILIZATION

Oh yes! Me, Personal, I do not like the multi-effects, but the c'tait OCCAZ I ratchet my redneck Cheap!
But the t is clear, intuitive and easy to use (much more than a boss ME-8 I had the chance to possder before). A guy not too c # # does not need the manual, everything is described above, and more buttons are fashion "pedals" (Chickenhead knobs). it is the easiest to use of all multi-effects I had the opportunity to try a long time (and the other a silent Korg also the know-it-over-what-G with p dale "PRESSURE").
It's a quick what we want.

SOUND QUALITY

The distos are, for this price range, plutt pretty good with the words "Big Fuzz" which hangs in the Agues well (and what is asked). C'st warmer than Boss equivalent of the those years.
The problem is that live, even using channels A and B, there is always a significant diffrence between sounds, is not a natural ... but the same default for all multi-effects.
I use it only for the effects of modulation and space vehicles with pedals Bypass, above I have a EU 300 (Tubescreamer) Ibanez fuzz face and a tinker!
While the pedal is not at all expressive is an even m # # # #! in consquence, whas the traveler and talk and effect are pretty bad! The Univibe is anecdotal, I've heard better (chorus EU 300 does it better).
For cons, the two phasers are trsrussi (that's why I bought it and the "classic chorus" too (trs EH small clone). The tremolo is nice but not so extreme rglage me in the end (with the chorus then you can emulate the sound of Nirvana to beginners Friendly Unit Shifter Radio or something like that). Nothing wrong on rverbes and d lais trs cool except that the tap delay is not that I love and the stro ping pong delay is not that I love tap! (the reverb mtallique "Tank" because of wonders in his "Surf")

OVERALL OPINION

Same for the use that I did (phaser, chorus, reverb and delay from time to time the Univibe) the purchase is fruiting (after the purchase of three four pedals and you'll see). He lowered then, if you see one cheap, jump on it!

Everything has been said.

He'll have been interesting if we can connect the pedal via USB to a computer to look for settings. Also, there is a smaller community that use this small community that KORG DigiTech-ienne or Line6 Pod-Ienne, so that you must have the ear if you want to dub the sound of another artist!

UTILIZATION

The manual is perfect! This multi-effects pedal is one of those the simplest to program. I have, with the delay function in, improvised psychedelic effects, completely live, and because I know what this pedal by heart! 10/10!

SOUND QUALITY

Big downside here: this pedal is far from true bypass! Even if they put it in bypass mode means a hiss very tiring, in addition to making the sound a bit tacky ... very bad!

Finally, if it is full of positives. The effects are great. The chorus, flanger and phaser are really excellent! The ring modulator effect is very successful.

The distortions are very good, or even surprising, mostly at last!

The amp models, however, are not up to the famous pod! But, personally, who cares full of amp simulations! Buy a tube amp, it's urgent!

The expression pedal is average ... I rarely heard a wah wah wah that was not ... The effect is really cool traveler mixed with distortion! Volume ... does what it has to do ...

Finally, 8 / 10 to bypass the most unfortunate (if you do not believe me, well plug this beast in a tube amp!)

OVERALL OPINION

I used this pedal about a year and a half before starting to buy several separate pedals. I still use it sometimes sounds which I do not have pedals.

Défénitivement I love the ease of use! But this poor true bypass, sniff ...

I tried several models that other guitarists have. This pedal beats any DigiTech pedal! But many rivals pod ... especially the Pod XT-live for a little more.

The value is absolutely excellent! Not unbeatable, but excellent!

I would do definitely the choice. This is a great pedal that I used too, but is not as much as a single pedal! But it is a multi-effect we speak, not of paradise!

Well I spend on technical points that have been developed over and over again in here.

UTILIZATION

So often you read the wah is weak. Mooi I find it quite acceptable! Bon ca CryBaby is not a true but it does model the wah with the pedal! No really it is one of the best effects!
While I was in against some top modeling "cabinet". In fact there is a choice between several models of boxes for the resonance amplifier. But I have not understood the value and the difference between "firm" is actually being obvious.
Otherwise, there was another point that frightened me before I bought it was the latency between the effects, I am pleased to announce that it is almost zero! Yes I was pleasantly surprised to find that when I press a switch, the sound changes instantly.

Thing I forget to mention, I purchased second-hand (thanks to the site: D) and has already 2 years. I received it yesterday so I know not every corner!

Sinan I go to a function that m'attrayait: "sample & play" which records sound for 8 minutes max then repeat loop. I was very pleased and already imagined the rhythmic register to play the solos with rhythmic in the background as I am only guitarist in my band. I was quickly disillusioned when I see that there is a blank of about 0.5 seconds between loops. Basically the rhythmic stops and it does not. but it can be used for repeated riffs.

SOUND QUALITY

I can not speak too much on this since I mostly play with headphones so forcing effects go nikel amp simulations, but lose their intensities

OVERALL OPINION

Well in conclusion, I do not regret my choice and I wait to test it on the good stuff (yes, because I had my amp 15W jpeut at hand and not push the volume, my neighbors are boring.

For technical, everything has already been said in the previous opinion!
A little extra anyway: the multi-effect has a stereo output, and plugged into two different amps, it does! the sound is larger, denser, more what?

UTILIZATION

The use is quite intuitive, we choose a distortion, an effect and go! However I have found very few factory preset really interesting ... well everyone can personalize their tastes! And that's the point that the problem: find a sound that really works is not impossible, c is just very long! I spent a bunch of after-noon to the top floor ... finally seen the price of the beast is really a minor problem ...

SOUND QUALITY

The distortions are really interesting, I find the overdrive really excellent! However the "fat distortion" and the acoustic simulator seem really unnecessary and ... ugly! for others nothing wrong, it can really work the sound with EQ and gain, for those who do not like to take the lead is great!

simulators hp does bring me absolutely nothing, maybe I do not use it ...

the modulation effects are very effective, indicating the tremolo! Again, it is not useful, Filtron (used with the expression pedal) and the auto wah I was not really convinced ...

the wah is nice, no more: I compared with the cry-baby of a friend, and there really is no comparison: on his own the pedal travel is more regular, the sound is more enjoyable .. . but good cry-baby = € 100, ax-1500 g = € 200 so we'll say anything ...

the reverbs are excellent but I still gasp! can not be used in conjunction with the sampler! and as I always scratch my friends on hand, it's quite irritating: I'm playing alone with a pure sound, or I run a loop of the agreements, but I miss a reverb!

OVERALL OPINION

I use this multi-effect for 2 years! the integrated sampler phrases is by far what I like in him! but I repeat, at this price point, the sounds produced by the korg are really excellent! I had tried other types of effects (mainly single pedals), but the ax in 1500 is really the most economical and less hassle! one branch and we play for hours!
value for money is truly amazing, although some effects are really unnecessary ...
Since beginning on the acquisition of this multi purpose, I would definitely do it again this election!
or maybe the 3000 ax who knows ...

96 programs with 8 simultaneous effects (56 different effects)
48 user programs + 48 factory presets
Expression pedal
2 channels with footswitch selection of six banks for a program
4 footswitches
Phrase trainer for 16 seconds (with up to 25% slower speed without changing the tone)
Sampling 8 seconds
Chromatic tuner
Backlit LCD display
Connections: input jack, stereo output, an auxiliary mini jack headphone
9-volt adapter included

Too bad there's no switch OFF / ON.
Lacks a bit of connectivity especially in relation to the MIDI that would interesante for PC!
Too bad also that there is no possibility of adding a memory card (which is done on Zoom 7)
Under the projos or strong sunlight must have the eye for the LCD screen

>>>> But is a good price do not complain !<<<<<

UTILIZATION

Use very intuitive!
Fortunately though, that occasionally the user manual is very comprehensive, because some settings are not obvious at first (after you get used) to the enormous possibilities that offer us the AX1500G.
Small flat for changment bank (downshifting) when you have to press 2 cumutateurs foot simultaneously.

Note the very nice headphone jack, CD input super convenient to repeat complex sentences, and of course two output amplifiers (super).

It will also highlight the repeater phrases really nice & expression pedal that finds all its interest!

SOUND QUALITY

This pedal is very versatile. We play everything with!
The program is very diverse and defined for all tastes. Some are very strange. Something good too are the predefined groups of sounds zik: Stones, Beatles, Led Zeppelin ... or genre: blue grunge ...
In general the AX1500G is more focused on distorted sounds but deliver very nice clean sounds!
As for the publisher it is super complete. We choose and we make the sounds you want: choice of the original sound, amplification, effects, atmosphere and the pedal associated with the creations. Each of these parameters can also be changed (air, presence, bass, mid, high, volume ...) thanks to the knobs! It's great results. That's why at the beginning is to find the sound cho! In addition to your creations you will, for a sound, have two variants by changing the channel (A or B switch on the left).
High possibility of stokage in banks!
Nice also the noise suppressor for the breath of notament distos or "click" microphones in his clean!

OVERALL OPINION

Great value / price: € 200 for this beast>> please.
The quality is there, the more you seriously expanded panel of sounds and effects you can have on an amp.
No hesitation, you can do anything (a 2 or 3 exeptions loans).

Bon others all said

UTILIZATION

The configuration-gnrale asssez is simple even if it requires a small learning curve to understand all subtilit.Tout what you do is indicate on the small screen.
-The edition and sound effects is really very simple and intuitive trs
-The manual is clear but a bit pointless

SOUND QUALITY

Distos them, the amp simulations, chorus, flanger and delay are trsralistes. But I regret that the wah is not too wah, auto wah, too.
Recorded programs are great (one, Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Van Hallen .......) but some are a bit unnecessary.
-I used to start shit with a guitar and a ca 100euros corrected quite sound crummy guitar. Today I play with a strato deluxe american and I redcouvert the bte

OVERALL OPINION

In use for 1 year
Do I like most is the ease of use, effects and qualkit distos (yen for all tastes) What I like least is the wah that is not wah.
The ratio quality-price is great
-Yes I do it again this choice
I put 8sur 10 because of the wah

All t dja said the technical specifications.

UTILIZATION

Gnrale configuration is somewhat complex even if I never had the opportunity to compare it with other pedals. It is hard to rtrograder bank (press 2 switches at the same time be somewhat difficult, especially CONCERE) and the interface is so-so (I prfre widely int breakers my pdalier peavez).
The edition is not too complex, however, and is pretty fast if you want an effect prcis.
The manual is not one of the best but he correctly explains the functions of the prinipales AX 1500 G, a good point: some technical terms are explained well trs.

SOUND QUALITY

The effects are really dcevants, some are correct but most are of same quality chapter in a long time Galise from the sound and work the intensity of the effect (I think notement reverb, trs synthetic, and the chorus that sounds somewhat vritable).
sounds are too vamp too hot, and when trying to have a warmer sound you leave trs poor (poor quality bass and low medium), I confirm that more high power is the quality of acute dteriore.
I played with a Jackson Dinky DKMG (EMG-HZ) and I put it in effects loop on a Peavey Bandit 112 with clear sound and distortion when it is well satisfied with me RULES more than the effects of the pedals. Thus, I find no big distortion on it, at least none that can rival that of my peavey (though not among the best in its class).
This finding is the same when the pedals are branch SERIES (breath and parasites within: the signal to noise ratio is rather mdiocre).

OVERALL OPINION

It is indeed true that on paper this PDAL Submitted a report quality price just standard, but personally I'm breaking my head trying to find the sound I like and I do find it (I play every style of music, and I play in groups), it will do more than two years since I bought and I have never used in CONCERE (notement causes of usability problem).
If you had this purchase again, I do not do it again, and I m'achterai plutt a Line 6 pedals that Boss or to have them heard in dja throw more (line 6 POD and Boss EC 2B, Boss CE-1 et seq etc ...).
Finally I have a wha wha pedals, crybaby is increuvable and whose effect is inconparable
with wha wha or self of AX1500G.
short, even do a little more expensive: korg ingnieurs home (with all due respect I have for you) it is unfortunately necessary to review your copy!

CHARACTERISTICS have the dj t ennonces ...

High accuracy: if you read around the net advice as how the multi-effect is worse than the effects spars, well knowing that the loss caused by the number of connecting a pedalboard (twice each end) and a source of great loss of quality. in other words if you just utiliss distortion and wha-wha is advantageous because the effects are better but otherwise a good multi sachs effect and as effective as a group effect ( and certainly easier to use).

that's why Dave Murray, whose guitarist is rpution longer uses a multi purpose!

UTILIZATION

The configuration is very simple (a small APRS adaptation time) and arrive to find a good sound quickly. you can easily edit and save an effect to the position desired. so it is simple to position effects depending on the setlist of a concert. for example, Bank 1 = 1,3,6 and 7 songs.

The transition from a bank because the other is simple. but downgraded to be a rvele vritable gym when you're barefoot. the buttons are well spaced (one not support two at a time) and use well thought out.

SOUND QUALITY

Yes! The effects are effective as long as you plug it into an amp correct (I have a head mg100hdfx and a jackson DK2 SK). On a guitar amp "normal" is not without function room (no need to simulate what is the relement) but it becomes essential for a direct connection to a mixer (and if the amp simulation n is not intgre in direct box) it avoids the need to return to his amp with a microphone. if the sound seems too synthetic, but it is a problem that has nothing do with the MODEL of the pedal. (I have the Tenai prciser certainly appears here as unknown function) and the ones they surment dja seen at concerts, some return to the enclosure with a condenser microphone and the other not.

I like all the effects but I do not use them all because the pedal is versatile and can rev to have corresponding sounds accsa has many styles DIFFERENT

OVERALL OPINION

I have been using ending for one year. I would say that this is a good compromise between "shit" and a factory. So perfect for most guitarists and amateurs in their prs. trs good value for Q / P, then! I test in a lot of conditions is really nice. I counsel every guitarist I know
