Which multi efx pedal ??

[t3rr3nc3z]

Hey guys.. Need help on choosing which pedal to get. A Zoom G1X or a Korg AX5G ?

 

[subversion]

from your options, the KORG would be a better buy since there's an expression pedal to manipulate the wah module.

however, what ultimately works for you depends on your needs, we can rattle off some reccommendations but they may not be what you are after

 

[t3rr3nc3z]

okay.. thanks for the info. The pedal looks so retro. cool !

 

[t3rr3nc3z]

Hey.. the G1X comes with a built-in expression pedal same as the korg

ok- imissed the 'X' there... but i tried both brand names, KORG has a better drive/ distortion definition in my books. the tube equipped ZOOM in the other hand has some of the best multi-FX drive tone (given the right amp) but i guess it's not on your list.

What i'm looking for in the pedal is.. a good distortion effect, over drive, acoustic sim, metal, and easy to understand and use.

ZOOM/ VOX/ POD stuff are relatively easy to use. my preferred tone might be different from yours but VOX has one of the best drive tones coming from a multi-FX unit but it can't do metal convincingly. POD does better in this light but it may be too digital sounding for some of us.

i've been through this multi-FX phase, i still prefer the guitar + amp tones rather than pedals/ multi-FX.

Okay, i'll go for the korg ax5g

Ah great choice.
btw i thik the Zoom Gfx series is not bad tho.
Tried the Gfx1 and Gfx5. prefebaly i prefer the GFX1. i really think its light and small to lug around for small jamming sessions. the modulations not bad tho. on the other hand. i really think the gfx5 is reather bulky and can see that the wahs working well.

Hmm lol i dunno why but i get sick of mmultieffects easily and now i had switched back to single stompboxes. guess multieffects is not for me tho.

its 8 times the price of an AX5g. we can at least assume his budget.

No need to go Swee Lee. The list of multi fx you have can be found in CityMusic. Furthermore, no long queue
