* A New ClassicBased on a painstaking analysis of vintage effect units and guitar amps that have becomeclassics, KORG's proprietary "REMS" modeling technology succeeds in faithfully simulatingthe tone of vacuum tubes and the resonant characteristics of speaker cabinets. Effectparameters can be edited immediately simply by rotating the knobs, for analog-likecontrol. An expression pedal is also provided, which allows 11 types of pedal effect tobe controlled in realtime. The exterior design features an extremely sturdy heavy-dutymetal body. Additional functions include a Phrase Trainer for learning new licks, and ametronome. On top of all that, the AX1000G includes both an Auto Chromatic Tuner andSample and Play feature.* What is REMS?REMS (Resonant structure and Electronic circuit Modeling System) is KORG's proprietarymodeling technology for digitally reproducing the complex tonal changes caused by theresonance of an acoustic guitar, the cabinet of a guitar amp, the effects of the airthrough which the sound spreads, and the electrical characteristics of a vacuum tube ortransistor circuit (effects).* 56 Types of Modeling EffectsThe AX1000G's 56 types of modeling effects cover numerous vintage compressor, overdrive,distortion, echo, reverb, and wah units that are expensive and difficult to obtain.Numerous simulations are provided, including the fat sound of tube amps, the raucous fuzzsound of the '70s, and the metallic distortion of the '90s. In the drive-ampsection, "REMS" supports the hybrid gain structure developed by KORG. You even get uniquelo-fi effects such as a tape echo that simulates the unique distortion produced bymagnetic tape and the unstable pitch caused by irregularities in rotation speed. TheCabinet effect gives you a wide range of simulations that cover both vintage amps andmodern designs, down to every detail of cabinet shape and speaker characteristic. Theexpression pedal lets you control eleven types of pedal effect in realtime-not onlyvolume and wah, but also unique sounds like pitch bend and traveler (filter).* 80 Instantly Accessible ProgramsThe AX1000G contains 40 preset programs that combine high-quality effect models. Anadditional 40 user programs can be stored, each of which allow you to utilize up to eighteffects simultaneously to create virtually any sound you can imagine. In Individual mode,each effect can be turned on/off separately by foot switch, meeting the needs of anysituation.* Easy EditingBoth sound parameters and effect types can be selected by rotating knobs. Parameter namesare printed on the front panel, making operation so simple that even beginners can startediting immediately.* Sample and Play FunctionUsing the Sample and Play function, you can play and record a phrase of up to 8 secondsand then play it back. Then you can play along with the recorded phrase. By usingfeatures like reverse playback with variable speed and many others, you can even producespecial effects such as "scratch" or looping.* Power-Paced Practise with the Phase TrainerYou can record up to 16 seconds from a CD/MD player or cassette, and then slow down theplayback to as little as 25% of the original speed without affecting the pitch- an idealway to learn rapid solos or difficult phrases by ear.The recorded phrase can also belooped for playback, allowing you to listen repeatedly. Plus, you can even hold aspecific note. The built-in metronome is also ideal for fine-tuning your sense of rhythm.* Auto Chromatic TunerThe auto chromatic tuner functions automatically when the AX1000G is bypassed or muted,so that you can tune without audible sound on stage. Plus, the AX1000G's backlit LCDscreen displays the program name and shows detailed parameter values during editing.
