Korg AX3000G demo and tour - some great features

[@ujjalbhuyan6191]

I am using this AX3000 g since 2012.. It's working fine..I have satisfied with clean and distortion effect of this machine..It's very good ..

[@gearfacts]

Yep I think it has some fun sounds

[@npartridge12]

Excellent review. My favourite guitar multi-fx pedal. I bought mine new some years ago and still my go to unit for great guitar tones. Really easy to edit and intuitive to use too. Plus you can download thousands of different patch presets for different songs and styles to transfer via midi and they all sound really good. Well done on a well presented review of a top fx unit.

[@gearfacts]

Thanks Nigel, I've been trying out a new camera lately and I seem to be getting a lot of focus problems. Price definitely doesn't correlate with suitability when it comes to cameras and KZbin... But back on topic, yes I think this is a really interesting pedal with some great features, and the workflow is just so easy. Thanks for watching Gearfacts :)

[@ferdy6642]

Can you suggest me the link to download patches

[@peterstephens5438]

Nigel Partridge were do you get your patch’s from I have been looking for hank Marvin please could you tell me many thanks p stephens

[@Millennial_Mike]

Drone effect is amazing. As I recall it mainly worked in E major... creates an Indian style drone effect

[@gearfacts]

I'll be doing another video about this one so I'll remember your advice about droning in Emajor :) #Gearfacts

[@leandrocesarmaccan5655]

Hi Gear! I finally have an AX3000G since a few days, and it was easy to configure the major part. I've noticed some limitations in comparison to other multieffects that i have, a Boss GT5, like changing the order of the effects (may be there is a way?), and not all the parameters can be assigned to the control footswitch, or the lack of momentary footswitch which is a shame. But the step sequencer is fantastic, and the synth for videogame sounds is really good. Just only for that is awesome, but at least it has some few more glitch sounds that makes it great, even not being able to do all the parameter assigns.

[@gearfacts]

Yeah I"m not aware of any way to change the effect order, but there's not doubt that it's original and very fun. Thanks for your comments!

[@rgbplumbinghilton]

I use one of these and am shocked that Korg didn't put a drive or boost on the unit. It would be a good live tool if it had those. Tons of weird effects that most purchasers would never use. I do like the unit but it lacks a few standard features. Amp and cab sims are pretty good.

[@gearfacts]

Yep I see what you mean. I could never grow to love this one tbh

[@ottovombaum2993]

This part has many settings and sound variations that many modern devices do not have today! Really great part! :-)

[@gearfacts]

Yep it's good, I'll be doing a follow-up video about its sequencer soon. Thanks for watching Gearfacts :)

[@ottovombaum2993]

This paddle is good too for Background Sounds or strange sounds like Synthesizers. This gimmicks have no one another paddle I think - no, I know it! I have the same! :-)

[@gearfacts]

I love gimmicks, and threads like these!

[@ottovombaum2993]

I love it too! This board is quite useful if you know how to handle it. You only have to know how! That's the secret of such effects. It does not fit everything for each thing.

[@januvkumar3684]

Such a good fx pedal.. Got one.. Very simple and awesome sounding.. MayB I'll add a TS 9 with it.. Otherwise.. It sounds awesome

[@gearfacts]

Several Gearfacts viewers have contacted me in the past saying that the TS9 works well with various multi effects systems. seems to be a popular choice so I say go for it :) Glad you liked the video. Gearfacts

[@indianvoiceover587]

BOSS bd-2 better than ts 9

[@Millennial_Mike]

No brand gets a better filter wah effect. When I was a teenager I used the AX1500 - clearly the tech is old / dated compared to Helix etc... but if Korg brought out another newer tech version of this I'd be all over it.

[@peterstephens5438]

I have ax3000g and I see that some one says their loads of patches but clan not find them some called Nigel partridge l would like some for hank Marvin and the shadows please could tell were to get them peter stephens

[@tommybrookes3066]

i like to play along to backing tracks and I find that the echo on this machine is second to nothing ,its antique yes but still a brilliant machine.

[@gearfacts]

That's cool man, I stilll need to make one more video about the AX3000G, it'll be a more detailed tutorial.

[@indianvoiceover587]

VIDEO QUALITY BACK US TO 1984

[@gearfacts]

Yes. Indeed it is :) Gearfacts

[@CollapseReport]

I don't understand why they didn't put a Midi sync function in for the delays .

[@gearfacts]

Yeah this machine could have been great with a just a few changes. But as it is, it's somewhat mediocre.

[@CollapseReport]

@@gearfacts Yes it is a very great multi fx for all kinds of stuff . I use my Ax3000 on my old MicroMoog .

[@Dave-qy1fn]

Nice review..can anyone tell me how to save a effect I made ? Thanks

[@tommybrookes3066]

ive had one of these for 4 days and im still trying to fathom it out,will somebody do a vid of how to actually use this machine.

[@gearfacts]

You can get the manual by googling "AX3000 pdf" ...it does take some time to gain insight into this one :) Gearfacts (and thanks for watching!)

[@gothicofficial5766]

Great review, i still own and play with an old ax300g (also nicely reviewed btw), back in the day i used to play death thrash metal, now i'm more into postrock, electronic-experimental, avant-noise, and i was thinking in getting this one to expand my search in sound weirdness, would you recommend it? or any other (cheap) one?, thanx

[@gearfacts]

Actaully I preferred the old AX300G. That pedal is wonderful. The 3000G seemed a little bit moody (in a bad way) to me. If you want to go more modern than the 300G then maybe look for a Line 6 PODxt? They are brilliant and I think the sound would suit what you're looking for. I've reviewed it a couple of times + a tutorial. I think you'd like it :) Gearfacts

[@gothicofficial5766]

Thanx for your reply, indeed the ax300g is really good, and about the line 6 one i was checking some vids and i'm aiming more for the pod hd300 or 400, i just found out you reviewed that one too and that convinced me regarding the modulation weirdness exploration i can get out of it, greetings from Mexico City

[@dibyendumondal6147]

What can be recorded in it? Or have drum bits?

[@gearfacts]

No USB recording, no drum sounds. Sorry!

[@kristammer8054]

Where are the links to the 3 other FX units you mentioned?

[@GuitarDoco]

Had this... sold now

[@gearfacts]

Yeah I sold mine too, there' are better ones out there :) Gearfacts

[@wolfgangtrubshaw5549]

So how much did you get / what's the current realistic value? As I'm toying with the notion of getting me one of these.

[@GuitarDoco]

@@wolfgangtrubshaw5549 I got INR 9000

[@deandee8082]

teh pedal lights are actually functional, specially for pitch transposition and or just how much effect you want to add, its ancie touch you can watch the light and say sounds good up to 5th light that's it, or for pitch transposing you can say like first light is a half step, 3rd is a full so on so forth so very handy in that case, this one is very well thought out, and my guess is there are functions one may never find that builders put in like gamers do.. yea very nice doesn't sound to bad either for practice someo recordable stuff.. never heard anything about it in the day.. but there was so much gear back then, when they actually made so much right here in the good ol' US of A.... remember Digitech? Harmon? Keely,HArtman, so many, then all your boutique stuff, we need to get that back, stop funding these freeks who just want violence and terror.. get on with making music again like we used to do for the freeks took over..

[@Dipankarkarmakar.]

This processor is very good

[@gearfacts]

Yep, I'll be making more videos about it soon :) #Gearfacts

[@Guitarraeficaztutorialesytabs]

Hello, I had this one, and due to economic reasons, I was considering getting it again, although, a friend made me realize that this device compressed the sound of my guitar. I have a Roland Cube 40 LX. What are your thoughts on that, Do you reccomend this one better than Digitech GNX for instance? I used to like it, but this MF got inside my mind and I sold it. The roland has effects but I do not have the footswtches and they are expensive.

[@gearfacts]

I think the GNX is very smooth and 'real' sounding, but the Korg is more versatile and a little bit more crazy. So it depends on your style :) #gearfacts

Anyone knows if Delay Time can be changed via Midi?

[@gearfacts]

Yes it can

[@thierry.lavallee]

Great. Can you specify how this is done? Thanks

[@alistairhosie652]

How does this compare with a modern unit say Mooer boss zoom etc

[@gearfacts]

In my personal opinion, this unit has never compared all that well to other multi effects units. It's strange becasue its little cousin, the AX5G, sounds awesome for such a low price. I couldn't get anywhere near as much feel from the AX3000G. My favourites (and I've tried pretty much all of them!) are the Zoom 3030 (very old), the Boss GT-6 (also pretty old) and the Digitech RP360. Thanks for watching Gearfacts :)
