MGR/Kip Tallahassee « Korg AX1500G »
Published on 12/06/01 at 15:00I bought the unit earlier this year from The Music Store, Bexleyheath, England. I paid £200 for it on the spur of the moment after a couple of minutes of trying the presets.
What I like about the unit is the scope of effects available. Preamp models, Cabinet Sims, Modulation FX, Ambience Settings and an Expresion Pedal make it a Jack of all trades. It is ideal for recording or just Jamming and includes a useful Phrase Trainer and sample and play fuction. As far as I'm concerned I only really use the Metal distortions, Acoustic sim and Wah Wah functions but there's some good medium gain stuff in there too as well as some more off the wall FX.
Some of sounds can sound a little rough around the edges and the patch change buttons are rather close together.
Silver metal outer casing with various black plastic switches and pots to control and alter effect parameters. Expresion pedal on the far right hand side and a red LCD display center/right.
Overall this is very good value for money. Any of the problems mentioned are overthrown by the quality of the preamp section. I would say the unit is a good buy for anyone who uses alot of high gain distortion but likes additional effects on hand.
