"Ladies & Gents....I Present the AX3000G"

Feature:
feature wise its great.... minus the fact that this unit does NOT have an on & off switch (which I have overlooked the penalty) I havent had it long enough to find out more about the features. but reading the manual they all seem pretty sweet! :D

Quality:
this is one of the most well made units I have ever seen

Value:
I got it fo 120UKS :P

Desirability:
this unit rocks.....so long as reprogramming half the preprogrammed sound banks doesnt scare you

Sound:
After reading so many good reviews about this I bought it to replace my aged but still decent Zoom GFX-4. sound features wise its perfect from bedroom moshing to live performance. the only reason why thsi fantastic product loses marks is.... 1. Acoustic Sim is nowhere authentic & thats the biggest downfall of this product. maybe I need to tweak it a little more but belive me Ive spent the last 30mins doing it or itleast trying to improve the authenticity. I recently borrowed a BOSS ME-50 off a mate & the Acoustic sim is perfect! best Ive ever heard! 2. pre-programmed affects patches are boring. there doesnt seem to be anything interesting about the lot asside from the few distortions & somewhat the sitar patch but its still seriously lacking authenticity

Ease of Use:
faily easy to use once u read the manual, otherwise takes a little getting use to

Support:
N/a as I havent had to use it

Overall:
I expect to have this unit for a fairly long time but it somehow cant compare with the my dated Zoom GFX-4 somewhat. maybe beause Ive managed to master itlol & possibly because Ive made some good sounds which I have featured on most of my bands music. The GFX-4 still feels like the "frontman" but once I managed to get the sound banks programmed with some decent sounds on the AX im sure phasing the GFX-4 out wont be a problem. but until then the AX will make an appearance now & again

"The Korg AX3000G...The Ultmate In Guitar Processors"

Feature:
The product included quite a few features. It has a MIDI jack on it. It has another port where you can connect another effects processor, it has to outputs for the Right Channel and Left Channel. So for i havent played around with the features much...but i find the metronome, inbuilt tuner very VERY helpfull.

Quality:
the product has a solid sturdy finish. The finish is so awesome with not a single dent or mark on it. the parts or all fit and easy to use. i do not worry about it breaking but i do take excessive care of it (because it is new) :p. The processor is built for the road for sure!! i'm sure it will last for at least another couple of years.

Value:
i think its the best buy for such an awesome processor as compared to other effect processors

Desirability:
it has a great appeal. it has a gothic black finish and all its LEDs look like something out of a sci fi movie...people keep checking it out everythime o go for a gig....i wud just want this for the way it looks even if it didnt give me a good sound

Sound:
The sound from the AX3000G is so bloody awesome for any kinda stage or amp. i play heavier stuff like mudvayne, lamb of god, flaw...the processor is perfect for them...i'm also into leads of bands like scorpions and GnR and the wah wah and lead sounds are perfect. With just a bit of tweaking you can easly achieve your desired sound..its so simple to edit. We're also recording an album...and its perfectly suited for studio recording....it also has a MIDI port and an internal memory which is so bloody cool!!!! my distortion effect sounds good only with a certain amp setting...otherwise its sounds pretty muddy. I use a Schecter C7 Blackjack with this processor and the effects of the pedal suit the sound of the schecter perfectly.. I couldn't dream of a pedal with a better sound!!!

Ease of Use:
its like taking candy from a baby to try and get a good sound from this processor. users new to korg may have to read the manual...but users familiar with korgs older products dont have to even look at the manual. editing patches to get your sound has never been so easy. and incase you dont want o edit patches you can just plug and your guitar and use the wide variety of patches already available.

Support:
so far i havent had any reason for support....

Overall:
i cant imaine when i may need to buy another processor. i ccompared this with other products...mainly the Zoom GT6 and GT8...i didnt like the way the zoom handled and i preferred the sound on the korg. if this product was stolen i would find the theif, pnd the pulp out of him, then get my Korg AX3000G back or go buy a new one. I love its expression pedal and the way the patches are selected. The sad thing about it is its a bit heavy..

A New Standard in Effects
Every guitarist craves a better way to satisfy his hunger for ultimate tone and control. The new AX3000G satiates that need with a powerful multi-effect processor that reaches far beyond its predecessors. Featuring Korg's proprietary "REMS" modeling technology, the AX3000G delivers high-quality modeling sounds and numerous ways to control those sounds in real time. With an expression pedal, a control switch, and an expression step sequencer, the AX3000G Modeling Signal Processor has all the elements a guitarist needs to fulfill his expressive vision.

Technical Info

Main Features
Korg's REMS modeling technology delivers 72 realistic classic and modern amp, cabinet and effects models.

Assignable control switch and expression pedal with 8 point LED pedal indicator for real-time parameter control.

New ESS (Expression Step Sequencer) automatically controls most effect parameters in a fixed or random step function that can create radical sound changes.

Sixteen types of drive and amp models cover everything from vintage overdrive to high-gain metal.

Eleven types of pre-effect, cabinet, modulation, delay and reverb modeled effects deliver a broad sound palette.

Transform your guitar with pickup, acoustic body and top, plus synth modeling effects.

Thirty-two preset programs are provided, plus the internal memory can hold 96 of your own original programs.

Send/return jacks let you connect your favorite distortion pedal or other effect unit.

MIDI IN/OUT allows you to edit and store original sounds on your computer using the dedicated editor/librarian software (Windows and Macintosh are supported).

Up to seven effects can be used simultaneously.

Amp/line selector is included for maximum output versatility.

Heavy-duty metal chassis stands up to the rigors of travel and stage performance.

Auto Chromatic tuner with highly visible 8 point LED allows bypassed or muted (silent) tuning.

Backlit LCD ensures easy visibility.

Knob-based interface for quick, intuitive editing.

Effects Models
Korg's legendary REMS technology delivers new amp, cabinet and effects models. The AX3000G packs 72 types of amp models and effect sounds delivered by Korg's world-acclaimed "REMS" modeling technology. In addition to true-to-life reproductions of a wide array of vintage and modern guitar amps and cabinets, REMS also provides standard effects such as chorus, delay and reverb, in gorgeous detail. These effects transcend the stereotypical concept of effects, and open up completely new vistas of sound for the electric guitar.

There are synth effects that model a guitar synthesizer, and completely new effects such as the Filtron that goes far beyond the conventional auto-wah. You can use the Acoustic effect to transform the sound of your electric guitar into that of an electro-acoustic, or Pickup Modeling to transform the tonal character of your pickups without switching guitars. The AX3000G also provides send/return jacks that make it easy for you to connect your favorite effect unit There's even a digital output (S/P DIF optical) jack so you can digitally record your playing without losing any of the amazing sound produced by REMS.

Expressive Power In addition to using the AX3000G's expression pedal in standard ways, such as to control volume or wah, you can freely assign the pedal to a variety of effect parameters for unrivaled expressive control. For example, if you assign the "MANUAL" parameter of a flanger to the pedal, you can use the pedal to control the sweep, creating a highly distinctive sound. By assigning the pedal to control the delay time of the "ECHO PLUS" effect (which models the sound of a tape echo), you can use the pedal to control delay time. There is virtually no limit to the new sounds you can create in this way - the pedal can control the reverberation time of a reverb effect, the modulation speed of a chorus, flanger, or phaser, and much more.

The AX3000G also provides a control switch that is a great asset in live performance. For example, you can use it to switch each effect block (such as the pre-effect and insert effect) on/off, to set effect parameters such as tap tempo of a delay in real time, to switch the rotational speed of a rotary speaker effect, or to control the Expression Step Sequencer (ESS). The possibilities are endless!

Expression Step Sequencer
The Expression Step Sequencer (ESS) automatically controls most effect parameters in a fixed or random step function. You can assign up to eight steps of effect parameter values in the step sequencer, and specify one of seven ways in which the sequencer will play back these steps: Forward, Backward, Alternate 1/2, Random, Forward (one-shot), and Alternate 1/2 (one-shot). This lets you create sounds with complex movement that were unachievable until now.

For example, use the ESS with a pitch shifter effect to specify the pitch shift amount of each step and produce sounds that are reminiscent of a synthesizer's arpeggiator. Or use the ESS with a wah effect and create wah sounds that move in stepwise fashion. Of course there's also a Smooth setting that lets you produce a continuous change between steps. Vary the ESS speed in real time with the ESS expression pedal or a control switch. Eight Large-diameter LEDs give you a clear visual indication of the total number of steps in the sequence and location of the step that is currently in use.

Thirty-Two Amazing Programs
Korg's team of tone technologists have poured their decades of unrivaled tone-creation experience into every one of the AX3000G's 32 wide variety of preset programs. Use the internal programs or save your own in the 96 program locations that are provided for you to store your settings. There's also an Individual mode in which you can use the foot switches to turn individual effects on/off just as if you were controlling a row of compact effects.

Analog-Feeling Ease of Operation
Because the AX3000G is so easy to use, you can select, edit and use all of its features effortlessly. You can select an effect model just by turning the effect select knobs provided for each effect block. And you can edit each individual effect simply by turning the knobs of the familiar, analog-style user interface. Effect parameters are shown on the panel as a clear, understandable matrix.

Built-in Auto Chromatic Tuner
The built-in auto chromatic tuner operates automatically when the AX3000G is bypassed or muted. Simply by selecting Mute mode when you're on stage, you can tune without producing sound from your guitar amp or other connected equipment. The note name is shown in the bank display, and the pedal indicator and name display provide an accurate pitch indication that is easy to see even on dimly lit stages.

Designed for Maximum Ease of Use And
The Ideal Playing Experience

Since the Output of the AX3000G can be connected to a variety of guitar amps (all of which have a different tonality) - or a mixer/recorder - four different equalizer settings are provided so you can ideally match the output of the AX3000G for the best results. The output choices are AP1 for connection to an opened-back U.S. combo amp; AP2 for connection to an opened-back U.K. combo amp with a distinctive sounding mid-range; AP3 for connection to a stack with 4 x 12 cabinets; and Ln for use with the Line output (including S/P DIF OUT), to go directly to a mixer/recorder or the power amp input of your guitar amp.

Key Lock
The Key Lock function lets you prevent the switches and knobs from being accidentally changed during live performances. Every aspect of the AX3000G has been designed with the utmost attention to detail in order to ensure the ideal playing experience.

Extended possibilities via MIDI
The AX3000G can receive program change messages, and can also transmit MIDI messages in response to pedal operations to control other MIDI devices. You can also control the AX3000G from your DAW software, making it an ideal addition even to high-end recording setups.

AX3000G Sound EditorThe "AX3000G Sound Editor" editor/librarian software lets you graphically view the many parameters of the AX3000G and easily edit them, as well as save and organize programs. This software can be downloaded from the website of your regional Korg distributor. Operating requirements: Windows 98/Me/2000/XP, Mac OS X v10.2 or later.
