Korg ax1500g
KORG’s REMS
Technology
KORG’s REMS technology, that’s Resonant structure and Electronic circuit
Modeling System, enables the AX1500G to deliver truly great sounding effects—and
a lot of them! The amp/distortion sounds go all the way from warm classic-tube
overdrive to extreme high-gain metal. You get the sounds of a closet full of
classic stomp boxes plus spring reverb, tape echo and more. There's even an
acoustic simulator that models an electric-acoustic sound. With vintage and
modern, closed and open-back cabinet models that run the gamut from 4x12 stacks
to 1x8 combos, the AX1500G is one incredibly versatile tone machine.
Easy
Editing
With the new AX1500G, versatility doesn’t come at the price of complexity. The
ToneWorks’ design team wanted to ensure that getting great sounds was quick and
easy. That’s why the user interface will be familiar to any guitarist whose ever
used a stomp box: knobs and switches. Creating and editing programs with the
AX1500G is very intuitive and the vintage-style “chicken head” knobs are cool,
too!
96
Instantly Accessible Programs
The AX1500G comes with 48 preset programs plus the ability to store 48
additional programs of your own creation. Up to eight effects can be combined
per program and you can turn individual effects on or off with the AX1500G’s
foot switches.
One of the unique things about the AX1500G is that it gives the guitarist two
selectable channels per program. Like a channel-switching amp, you can change
channels instantly (without moving to a different program) and go from a rhythm
to a solo sound instantly.
Built
in Expression Pedal offers Real-Time Control
The AX1500G’s built in Expression pedal provides real-time control of eleven
effects like wah, volume and pitch bend. The Expression pedal can also be used
to control the AX1500G’s Sample & Play function. Sample & Play makes it possible
to record up to eight seconds of your own playing, loop the recorded phrase and
play along with it, play the phrase in reverse and do other kinds of wild studio
effects.
Power-Paced Practise with the Phase Trainer
The AX1500G also boasts a Phrase Trainer which makes learning riffs by ear
really simple. Say you want to copy a guitar solo. The Phrase Trainer lets you
record up to 16 seconds from a CD or cassette; slow down the playback speed to
as little as 25% of the original without changing its pitch, and loop the
playback to repeat the phrase over and over ‘til you get it! There’s even a Hold
function that lets you extend a specific note. The AX1500G even includes an AUX
IN feature so you can play along with an external audio source.
Auto
Chromatic Tuner
Korg invented the first hand-held electronic tuner and continues to be the
leader in the field. In fact, many of the world’s “guitar heroes” rely on guitar
techs who rely on Korg tuners to keep their guitars in perfect playing shape.
The AX1500G features a built in Korg auto-chromatic tuner that functions in
Bypass and Mute modes. The Mute mode, which lets you tune silently, is ideal for
tuning on stage. And there’s even a built in metronome!
The AX1500G is one great sounding — and great looking—multi-effects processor
that’s packed with cool features. Try one. Whether you’re recording or playing
live, you’ll appreciate the AX1500G’s versatility and truckloads of tone.
