| Hi !
What do you expect, this thing is brand new. Yesterday I saw the first one in a
store. At the Musikmesse Frankfurt the demonstration couldn't be finished
because the guitar guy broke a string and since he had a locking trem (and no
other guitar to change to :-( ) they canceled the rest. So I just a ahort
impression and it seems that it's a bit more flexible, but sounds like an A3.
best regards
Richard

| The A2 is not brand new, at least not here. It's similar to the ART SGE in
that it allows for a number of effects including distortion to be chained
together. I heard one a few months back in a store here and it sounded pretty
much like a RECORDED guitar, not a live one, this was running it with a
guitar into a rivera tube head. The sound was good enough that I priced one and
decided to wait and see.

97 effect chains (combinations)

2664.4 | Bought one .... | KBOMFG::MARTINEK | Information Systems - KBO Germany | Fri Jun 21 1991 03:28 | 17 |
| Hi,
first thank you guy's for all of your information.
Yesterday I went to a music store and bought one.
I connected the A2 directly to the mixing console of
the PA. The sound was great! I think you're right to
say "it sounds like a recorded guitar". O.K
But what does we want? Has the sound to be as good
as in the studio? For my opinion, I hear a recorded
sound and I decide to have the same. Isn't it?
And what's the difference between studio and live sound?
Mostly it's very difficult to have the same sound on stage
as in the studio!

2664.5 | No A2 owners out there?? | KBOMFG::MARTINEK | Information Systems - KBO Germany | Thu Jun 27 1991 03:32 | 8 |
| On saturday I played my first gig with the A2.
(Not my first, but the frst with A2! :-) )
It sounds great!!! Great chorus, flanger, delay, reverb, ....
.... but even great distortion and compressor sounds.
Thats the thing that makes me happy!
