KEMPER/AXEFX for $80 on Amazon!? | Lekato Tank G Review & Demo

[@Electric.Flamingo]

QUICK NOTE BEFORE YOU COMMENT: The guitar I used for this demo was the Epiphone Yungblud SG Junior, which has a P90 pickup (sorry I didn't actually show myself playing it), but that explains any "hissing" or extra noise you hear. I've been seeing a lot of comments about the unit itself is noisy, that is not the case at all, I promise. It's simply some 60 cycle hum from the pickup. Remember that is also has a noise gate built in as well and works great with other pedals, so if you have your own, you can use that as well!

Does the thing have a noise gate built into it ? .. Sounds real noisy going through an amp !

[@BlackSun3Tube]

When the buttons are binking, it means the value indicated by the button is not the one actually playing. So when you tried différent amp simulations on your amp, we had no idea of how the bass/mid/treble and gain were setup ... I've got the cube baby, excellent for the price, this one too :) Thank you for the test :).

[@georgeflowers3730]

Without a doubt, beginners today have it easier. They have access to good and cheaper gear than when I was a teenager in the 80s😅

[@Electric.Flamingo]

I've heard that a lot. Growing up with a dad who was raised and played through the 80s, seeing the gear he still has kicking around, I can believe it firsthand. lol

[@jeanguion3223]

I remember renting pedals renting different types of amps from my local music stores and absolutely losing my mind when I finally could afford to buy an old beat up late 70s early 80s Ibanez rack unit that had distortion reverb flange Chours and delay in it..Completely changed my perspective on my own playing and I began to study much harder and advanced much quicker... it’s no wonder the guitar players these days are getting so good so fast..

I have kemper and also had this. Fun little product that is great for practice and even direct “quiet” rehearsal. BUT it is far from a kemper killer. Actually made me appreciate my kemper tone even more than before.

Fantastic video! Thank-you for taking the time to demonstrate this unit. For the money it seems like it's worth it. I wish that it had some way to edit/organize patches with a computer.

[@Electric.Flamingo]

No problem! That is something I wish you could do too.

[@rebeccaabraham8652]

I've just ordered one of these as an upgrade to my Cube Baby - which is an excellent piece of kit. The extra reverb, delay and modulation modes - in conjunction with 36 preset slots - are going to be invaluable... and I've already got a set of IRs to load. As far as noise levels are concerned - there's the noise gate to play with and I'm not all that interested with any amp models beyond the clean and slightly overdriven, as I play folk, jazz and blues - and I'd rather hear the music than a 'wall of distorted noise'. As far as the output goes - I've got my lovely Orange combo... and a big 60W bluetooth speaker with an 'aux-in'; I'll be fully sorted for a mains-free portable solution - just what I need for a night out at the local music club!

[@Electric.Flamingo]

This is gonna be perfect for all of that!

[@vondragonnoggin]

Thanks for the review. You’re providing a great service with the gear demos. All the gear you used is on the more affordable side. It sounded very good. The 70/80s aren’t my favorite but they actually do good with modelers going into power amp and cab because they have a more full and mild range of guitar frequencies. At least that’s what I hear around the block. $80 modeler with effects is crazy.

[@Electric.Flamingo]

That's what I said, for the price, it's a great piece of gear. I have legitimately been playing it every day. I've written stuff I normally wouldn't since I have the effects right at my fingertips!

[@DavidMorisset]

For beginners or anyone wanting a nice back up or travel rig, this is awesome for a gig bag.

[@Electric.Flamingo]

Precisely!

[@herboffiresidestudio9053]

A lot of players overlook this price level of gear and think if they don’t spend 2k it’s no good but there are some great pieces of equipment out there at a very reasonable price

[@Electric.Flamingo]

Exactly. For the price, it's a killer piece of gear. As is a lot of things I look at on this channel. Is it the greatest? No. Is it awesome for the money? Hell yeah.

[@emach07]

yup lol I took out all of the Seventy 80's out of all the 2X12 Marshall cabs I bought because Vintage 30's cut through so much better so loaded them all up with those. BUT! I had two other 2X12 cabs with v30's and finally decided to just get two more Marshall cabs so everything looked more professional on a stage So I swapped and put the Seventy 80's from those Marshal cabs into the two other cabs and tried to sell them. Sold the Avatar for dirt cheap ($175 slanted) and couldn't sell the CGM which was louder and had more bottom. One day I was trying out some solid state bass amps with my guitar modelers and plugged in a 200 watt Dark Glass micro amp into my Bugera 1X12 and I never could get that 1X12 to sound worth a hoot. Too loud for quiet practicing and not loud enough to crank. So I plugged it into that CGM loaded with Seventy 80's and holy !@#$%! well put it this way, I took it off Craigslist immediately and I'm holding on to that thing!!! And they now kept right up with the 2x12 Marshall cab loaded with vintage 30s!! I still prefer the tone of the 30's but they mostly sound different not necessarily better. Prior to that I thought they were really crummy speakers. But not anymore

[@mistersniffer6838]

I am gonna buy one just for the blinky green light!

[@Electric.Flamingo]

$70 well spent.

[@DoctorMandible]

FYI the amateurs in your comments are saying it sounds bad because they're unaccustomed to hearing a guitar without reverb. Even most other reviewers keep some reverb on the entire time. It's dumb but there it is. I appreciate the isolated tests. Sounds fine.

That explains a lot, actually.

Wow! Thanks for your video. I do very much appreciate how much you put into these and this kind of kit would have been excellent when I started guitar many years ago.

[@Electric.Flamingo]

Yeah, I wouldn't necessarily say this replaces amps or anything, but it's a fun piece of gear to travel with, record demos with, things like that. There are better options for professional recording/playing, but for the price and what you get, I dig it.

You were limited by what was available and how little cash you had to spare, but it was a completely different world. Now you can get one of these in your teenage dreamer hands and not only have almost every effect you could imagine, but also great amp IRs and the ability to record direct into your computer.

[@Electric.Flamingo]

It's kind of like an amp modeler thing, so it compares a bit, I think.

[@psychorat5]

This comparison often comes from the ability of Tank-g to load trained profiles in the preamp slots along with custom IRs in the IR slots. You can capture Amps, pedals, vst plugins or full rigs using the SincoANN software, or get some from the net. This is great for a 60-80 bucks pedal

The only thing stopping me and the only 3 other punk rockers in my entire high school….small remote west TX town… back in the 70s was gear being obscenely expensive. If we would have had the cheap but good gear which is around now, plus with DAWs to record with, we would have been able to have a band. Owning a decent guitar/amp, a drumkit, etc was something most people only fantasized about. There weren’t Squiers and affordable versions of anything like there is now. It took over a year of flipping burgers and scrubbing urinals for me to wind up with a Fender Mustang ( cheap used, cos the more arcane types of guitars then weren’t prized the way they are now; in fact the hippies in the music store laughed at me for buying it, lol. Hey, as long as I offended hippies, all good) and a used Peavey Pacer, which was the worst-sounding amp they ever made; any other Peavey I played later was 500x better than that one. Better late than never on the eventual arrival of The Golden Age Of Gear.

Having to click 2 buttons at the same time to switch patches/banks is a serious flaw. Everything else is decent. Thanks for the review.

[@Electric.Flamingo]

A lot of pedals like this are designed that way, from what I've seen. Not really a bad design unless you HAVE to switch that way while you're playing live or something.

[@BAND-MAID-USA]

@@Electric.Flamingoand it’s a design flaw on all of them. Maybe a separate 2 or 3 button footswitcher could be plugged in on this but I doubt it. If you’re a live player anything that requires simultaneously pressing 2 buttons or switches is just a massive, NOPE. It’s an extremely simple programming code to make the switches long press and short press. They could have easily made it a long press instead of needing to simultaneously pressing 2 different buttons. Switching patches/scenes etc live is basically the most important part of the setup. I know you can’t get it all for $80 but this would have been a 10 second programming change that would have made this thing so much more useable for live shows. Again, it is only $80 and having an XLR is pretty cool. And if the IR’s sound good that’s pretty sweet too. But having to press both switches at same time makes it unusable for most ppl live. Shit even at home it’d be a pain in the ass. But then again. Only $80 and I can give them some serious credit for that.

[@BlackSun3Tube]

@@BAND-MAID-USA You change patches through only one button, it's the bank change that requires to hit two buttons at the same time. You've got so 4 patches per bank.

@ anything that requires needing to use 2 buttons to change functions is a pain.

[@BlackSun3Tube]

@@BAND-MAID-USA It gives you the ability to change four preset sounds with only one button, that should be enough for most songs :) Then between songs, you have the time to use 2 buttons at the same time to chaange bank ... And note that it's just a question of .habit : you do only require one move to change patches or to change banks :) Buit maybe you play guitar one note at a time too? Or are you able to do chords, pressing more than one string at the same time? :)

[@onusgumboot5565]

Is the battery replaceable, or is it basically a disposable effects unit? Not having to plug it in is one thing, not being able to is different. I stopped using batteries years ago. I got a pedal board with its own power supply. 9 Volt batteries got too expensive. At least it looks like you can turn this thing off. Pedals are always on until you unplug the cord. Which leads to dead batteries on the second night of a two night gig, when you forget to unplug something. Running around at the last minute to find someplace to buy 9 volt batteries kind of sucks. If the battery is not replaceable, I can see a time where the battery is dead before the gig is over. Now what do you do.

[@Electric.Flamingo]

Not a replaceable battery as far as I know. It doesn't run on 9v or anything like that, so if you want to call it disposable, that would best describe it.

[@onusgumboot5565]

@@Electric.Flamingo So if you want to rely on it for gigs, you better get two. For the price, I guess that's possible. Seems like another step in the wrong direction though, if you are at all concerned about the environment, or the health of the planet. Being a disposable society is already creating real issues.

It must be rechargeable via the usb port, surely? Still, it's more electronic nonsense the world doesn't need.

[@onusgumboot5565]

@@sunnshiner That's the way it recharges, sure. But if you're at a gig, and the battery goes dead, you won't be playing again that night. That may not be a problem when it's new. Make sure it's charged before you leave for the gig. But as these batteries age, the charge goes away quicker all the time. Plus I'm sure these are lithium ion batteries. So once again you are supporting slave labor to have the minor convenience of not having to plug it in. I agree that it is more nonsense the world doesn't need.

I actually like it when compared to Mooer, NUX, Valeton. Won't say it's better or worse, but I like it better for the simplicity and stompboard it has. It's right there along with the other budget modelers brands imo.

[@SoloSi2024]

To be honest, the expensive units all have far too many models! You're never gonna need 50 different metal tones. Once an amp is overdriven, you'll have a tough job distinguishing it from another. You would never use that many live either.

[@Electric.Flamingo]

Very true. With this, you have like 8 amps and 7 IRs with 5 effects. And it does the job.

[@jeffmora9832]

Another spoiled KZbinr with there state of the art studio and gear doing demos of gear most of us common folk could ever afford… 😊 No for real I love the pink decor and plastic flamingos just goes to show that if you’re good at what you do, you don’t need a bunch of fancy shit just use what you got and be grateful for it. Love your video and I will for sure like and subscribe.

[@Electric.Flamingo]

You had me going in the first half...lol. It's all about using what you got and gear nowadays is so much better than it was years ago. Thank you! ⚡️🦩

[@alexhuevera939]

no fuzz no deal

[@Electric.Flamingo]

It works with other pedals. Put a fuzz in the chain, problem solved.

[@Bret_Sanor]

Epic fail to not have an option to run an AC adapter. I don't trust battery only and it will stop holding a charge over time.

[@Electric.Flamingo]

Yeah, but for $80 and if you take care of it, you would more than get your money's worth out of it.

[@jeanguion3223]

Anybody that’s even slightly tech savvy, could drill a tiny hole in the back of it and install a pin jack that you could hook up an external AC adapter to it , plenty easy to do..

[@jackprice7828]

Interesting but I am not a fan of any gear that operates only on a battery.

[@Electric.Flamingo]

So, plug the USB-C in and use it as direct power. 🤷‍♂️

[@brianpark492]

​@@Electric.Flamingodrum roll...badumcha!

[@HardwiredQ]

Amazon listing says you can direct into a computer with usb c too did you try that.

[@Electric.Flamingo]

I did plug it in, but I don't have a set up to record through USB-C. I tried to see if I could load my own IRs in or anything, but didn't figure it out so far.

[@HardwiredQ]

@@Electric.Flamingo I’m kinda hoping I can get it to plug in straight to my iPad Pro and use through garage band in place of going through an interface, would make it a killer mobile recording set up. We’ll see once Amazon drops it off this weekend

[@Electric.Flamingo]

@HardwiredQ oh, it's capable of mobile recording, if that's what you're asking. It will absolutely work with an iPad! The instrustion manual should detail how to do that more!

[@HardwiredQ]

@@Electric.Flamingoperfect thank you!

[@eearts]

So inexpensive for so much yet the sound quality is the question . Better off with saving for something better?

[@Mikee535]

Pfft... I think the $69.00 Zoom G1 FOUR sounds a lot better.

[@papakrailanuarhajiisa]

Copy MVave Tank G Green Color Ann File n Sound I try all out The Black Box Better... Thats All Price Also Cheap Then Lekato Website

[@ChitThaePwe-vt5ll]

My memo...

[@shido00000]

Sounds meh, very digital. But comparing this with Kemper, never. It’s a decent pedal for beginners. A Kemper is for professionals.

[@redkurn]

honestly it sounds like hot garbage. flamma fx100 being only a bit more would take you further.

[@Electric.Flamingo]

Not quite sure why everyone says it sounds bad. 🤷‍♂️

[@mutizen1392]

This little effects unit can do amp profiling and load IRs, so with a little bit of work, you`re obviously wrong.

[@TheMcmansilla]

cool playing, but awfull sound, sounds like something from 2010, you play like the gods bro, no hate

[@Electric.Flamingo]

Sound is subjective, I think it sounds pretty good for what it is. I appreciate the kind words, though! ⚡️🦩

[@JL-rj5jx]

Useless, noisy and does not come out in stereo ,good its under 100.00. Keep strumming ❤😊

[@Electric.Flamingo]

If you're recording, you want to record in mono, so I'm not sure why that is such a big deal, honestly.

[@mickenilsson]

So you're a swinger 😁

[@Electric.Flamingo]

Evidently so

[@ronabrams63]

Isn't this Pedal the cheaper version of this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qmawh5d6m9uNjJo

[@Electric.Flamingo]

I would have to say they look very similar so most likely, yes.

[@Nizodizo]

That crapy sound sounds wonderfull to me.

[@Electric.Flamingo]

Sound is subjective, so it you like it, awesome!

[@Aisuarisa]

I have 2 Tabk g and bb sound very suck Vox tonelab ex is better

[@josephbailey1995]

The hog ring is distracting

[@Electric.Flamingo]

Sorry that a piercing ruined your viewing experience. 🤷‍♂️

[@petedambski3792]

I have not heard one usable tone. Nice toy though

[@Electric.Flamingo]

Well, they're there. 🤷‍♂️

[@aymanibrahim9736]

Sounds like the 40 dollar Zoom and not in a good way.

[@neilduty8448]

Mono and no midi this is a toy then

[@Electric.Flamingo]

I think it's a legit piece of gear, but to each his own. 🤷‍♂️

[@BillVerdon]

Nope!

[@Wrguitar941]

Wish reviewers would just use the device without going through any other then the pedal this video pretty much useless

[@Tonetwisters]

What the crap izzat?

[@g43s]

That’s a generic multi fx unit, I’ve seen maaaany brands put their logo on it

[@JohnBaker-vm1wf]

Claickbait isn't going to get you anywhere. This sounds nothing like, nor has anything close to an AXEFX. Clickbait gets the downvote, everytime. make better videos and you won't need to do this.

[@Electric.Flamingo]

Well, the video is at almost 100k views, so it's gotten me somewhere, thank you for your contribution as well. My videos are fine as is, it's called "drawing you in."

[@JohnBaker-vm1wf]

I'm not trying to shit on you dude, but you know you can do better. Sorry if I come from a time when people looked at dishonest advertising and called it for what it was. I could have been a sub for a mediocre channel, but when there are better, honest channels out there that don't rely on bullshit nefarious tactics, I'll go there. Money is hard to come by when you don't live at home with mummy and daddy.

[@Electric.Flamingo]

How exactly can I "do better" though? I demonstrated a product pretty well, I think and gave an honest opinion. Is the thumbnail and title clickbaity? Yeah, but that's the game. Obviously, the Kemper is better than this. But, for someone on a budget or just getting into this type of stuff, it's great. Maybe someone who is looking for an alternative will search for "Kemper alternative" and this could come up. Is it truly? No. Is it kinda? Yeah, kinda in a way.

[@Mrlz56]

Whether you like this kind of digital gear or not, it is a testament to how inexpensive or cheap SMT / surface mount technology is to make. 99% of FX pedals made today are SMT builds. Boutique gear means nothing today, I digress. Think about $12.00 per unit but you pay 199.99 Cheap micro parts that can't be repaired. I find these greedy #$$%%^ disgusting. A EYE has taken over the industry because guitars, amps, pedals , keys ETC. are dirt cheap to make. The only ones who benefit is them. Do your research. They play on your ignorance, don't be a dumb as.
