This is a handheld multi-effects for guitar and bass (there really are dedicated amps and effects on bass, it's not just a marketing argument).
In different ways, so we can shape the sound according to six sets of parameters:
<ul> Dyna: Dynamic Sound (compressor, wah, etc ...)
Amp: Amp Type (guitar or bass)
Cab: Speakers from 8 to 18 inches!
Mod: Modulation (chorus, flanger ...)
Dly: Time
Rev: Reverb </ul>
There is also a Noiseless.
In addition, we also have a drummer and a bassist capablent to beat a hundred paces. The drum machine is not editable, you can not compose their own rhythms, but a track of 16 measures is dedicated to the composition of a line by combining existing patterns.
Finally, the machine allows 30 seconds to register and to listen to a CD to play back play with the possibility to adjust the tone of it.
Well, in a small box, it's pretty amazing
UTILIZATION
This thing is a great working tool for string pinch
From my point of view because it is not a tool designed for live or recording: ergonomics does not intend to (you can not plug in the footswitch for example), and sound, a Once amplified, is not sufficient for a quality recording (there are more or less blows to the level of distortion in particular). However, amplified by a stereo, the sound is quite listenable. Through a guitar amp for cons, it is less good, especially the lines of batteries are terrible!
But this is not a criticism!
This is why it is, it does so well: to help scratch their instruments to work, to work their sounds, their hit, their phrasing, their rhythmic ... piss off the headphones and without the world
You can play in his room at 3am in the living room during the football game, in a car en route to Amsterdam, on the train, in the garden on Sunday morning ...
Operation is both simple and complex. Complex because so many functions to put in a little box, we must have plenty of buttons whose functions change depending on what is is now set. Simple because once we understand the principle, we no longer need the manual: one rule, there is a sound that suits us, it stores it in one of the 100 user presets, and voila!
Rythtmique section is well thought out: it is very neutral, so it gives the general tone of a style, no more, and it encourages improvisation and without constraints parasites, such as an unwanted break in the middle a solo. In return, it is not an original dirt ... but this is not what is asked.
The bass line is adjustable in pitch. Apart from the Blues presets (or bass plays the classic 12-bar blues), the bass repeats the same pattern on the same basic agreement (always this neutrality). It is possible to improve it, either by scheduling a rhythmic line on the track customizable (you can then change the agreement for each measure), or by changing the agreement directly with the small buttons suitable.
Edit: I found a computer version of the manual (Here (https://www.korg.co.jp/Support/Manual/dl/PX4D_EFGJ1.pdf), page 96), which lists the bass lines is one of the things I would have liked to have before buying!
SOUND QUALITY
I said, the sound quality is quite good to work with headphones or a stereo, not to save (at least with my requirements), or to play live.
Considering therefore the orientation of the tool, the sounds are excellent ... almost too
The Pandora has everything that is done on the subject: amp in abundance, combined with many cabinets, and effects you want, almost.
In short, we can work very fine in all its sounds tyles: compressors are good, the modulations defend themselves (with headphones), the reverb is very average, but effective ... etc ...
Why is it too much?
Because if it is a tools, we do not need all that: a dozen sounds would have just typed. Well, it's not serious, who can do more can do less: The user presets are there for that.
Finally, we note, for fans of sounds from outer space, the presence of less common effects on the pedals: ring, etc. synthesizer ... We can do things quite surprising that no longer really a guitar or bass, but usable for example for the house.
OVERALL OPINION
With experience, I'm sorry ... not to have had this box before
It is a décupleur work, which eliminates the constraints of the amplification. More reason to leave the guitar at home, starting with WE, not to play because the little sleep, or because you just re-connect!
The rhythm section allows for its range of far more enjoyable than a metronome (there is also a metronome for maso)
Warning:
As multi-effects, it is much better and more convenient.
As a working tool is a must have total
From my point of view, therefore, the Pandora is for those who already have, and looking for a working tool carried anywhere.
Those looking for a multi-effects used in live classic and must find a tool more suited to this function.
