Re: [korgbass] Re: PX4B and modeling


It sounds to me like effects are similar, the Ampworks basically being the
effect and preamp sections of the PX4B with analogic style controllers.
Following this logic, the AX-10 B is an ampworks with floor controllers.

Actually, I have to say that I was very disappointed by the AX-10B. Being
the successor of such a mighty box as the AX-1B, I thought it would be a
brilliant unit.
Well, it's average. It sounds ok but misses many interesting effects the
AX-1B could produce, such as the Drone or the Ring Modulator. The kind of effect
you only find in multieffects because they're not worth buying a separate
pedal.
Compression hasn't been really improved. Overdrives are much better.
It also lost fine editing functions such as patch naming and LCD screen.
It doesn't even have a real wah but instead a sweepable filter.

I was not impressed, which in a way is a bit sad since I've always supported
Korg units for their efficiency and musical qualities.

This list is a bit dead now. There are many many members but very littel
discussion so really I don't spend much time trying to make it live.

Anyone compare the PX4B to Ampworks? I now have both and am
interested in opinions.

Thanks,

Jim
