Life and music are always a loop cycle that’s why you need a looper pedal!!
No I’m not crazy. Loop pedal is good for learning, jamming and live performances. If you’re trying to move against technology you’re behind all of the music revolution that is happening before your nose. There’s no coming back, and analogue and digital have made some babies and they sound good. Judge me! This loopstation has great professional effects for you to jam and look cool with. You will beatbox, play synths, sing, plug your guitar and sing until the neighbor complains with you and call the cops. I had to build a sound proof window because of that. I was loud, but loud and proud so my sound should move on. I’ll wait for the neighbor from the other side to complain and still not going to sell this pedal. You should watch the product teaser that Boss released on youtube featuring the musician: Youngr... Hes going to sell you this gear way better than my words. But id did not get paid to write this for you and he did. Give the loop a try and embrace joy in life.

I sold my soul to the iPad and I had some fun with it... Buy one first, judge me afterwards.
As an Android and open source philosophy lover I hated Apple’s market arrogant strategy and the huge price tags of the products. I still love philosophy and dislike that but now I know that I got what I paid for. They are ahead of their time about quality and product design but they suck so much on making cables. Just buy from other brands when you cable dies on you... I have to say tha Apple also doesn’t recognize that all musicians in the world are in love with the 3,5 phone jack. But, ill keep on with my honest review. Their products definitely could be sold for less penny’s but it will change your music perspective, productivity and inspire you with the pletora of professional sounding apps. I’m also an app developer and I know that Apple took care from the latency issues of their devices since the release of their first iPad. That being said, the Android hardware partners such as Samsung did not believe that music was something very important and priority on a phone. They whore so wrong... The iPad is bringing a revolution to the music production putting full studio solution at the tips of your fingers. The musicians in the world did not know they needed multi touch interfaces with pressure sensitivity to express their feelings. And all the synths apps from Korg, Roland, Yamaha, Novation, the list is huge. I cant forget the incredible DAWs that are changing oppinions off very skeptical famous music producers that build the songs you love. Trust me Apple music environment is now a mature environment and is here to stay. Boy ow boy, if you’re not sold by now, just ask a musician friend that owns one. Just do you a favor, save you pennies buy one and prove me wrong. Or else just embrace the joy of music technology revolution and move to a new era. You wont be charged by this free tip but you will remember me...

You can pair this effect unity with any playable gear and get professional effects!
This gear is a nobrainer to use with symple interface and tons of amazing pressets of effects that are going to take you to another world. If you like to experiment with lots of different sources of music and sound this small thing will take you to music enlightenment. I’m not kidding! Korg made something very wright when gave birth to this equipment. I’m not the only one that backs up this portable wizzard of effects in a box. I have plugged this thing to my electric guitar and got amazed with the new peofessional sounds it produced. If you don’t believe go check it out on youtube the Ibanez Kaoss Guitar with one of this unitys built in on the body. For me music is about experiences and a constant search for new sounds. The korg Kaossilator is something that brings all of this with a small footprint and have one of a kind expression control with its X Y Pad. Thumbs up for Korg for this acclaimed product. I did not got paid to say this and would criticize it if I have any cons, but I don’t. My only wish is that Korg keep on with this family of products and improove it with memory, with more patches, midi in and out, usb C connectivity and integration with Apple, Android and Windows devices. But keep it small! The volca series of synths will need a better companion.

You can’t go wrong! This small portable gear will make you inspired in no time.
If you have never tried a Kaossilator before and want to give it a try buy the Android or Apple iKaossilator app before buying this one. I did this myself and now I have the hardware as well. The app is amazing and this one is even better because of the touch pad X Y. Its hard to explain in words what happens to you when you touch the pads for the first time and start to zigzag your fingers randomly and still get good sounds. It’s no weird at all... In fact this pad concept is something to be studied and improved by all music companies. Korg did it wright and there is a lot of fans out there on the internets that will agree with me on this one. If you find a used kaossilator for a good price plese make a favor to yourself and get one. But please don’t go for the new model, the Kaossilator 2s. The “s” version is a complete design failure and very criticized by the musician community on the Kaossilator facebook group. It appears that Korg decide to remove one of the two loopers and with that removed the hability for a musician to make a live jam switching from one loop to another and build the song. Some times innovative companies take bad decisions. But if you buy this one instead you will have lots of fun cheering mini electronic parties to friends. If I’m correct, after some time you will fell in love with this gear, take it everywhere you go and start write good reviews without being paid by the japanese company. I think you will have at least some fun with it!

The only thing is that this beast cannot sing alone for you... But it tries hard and gets close to do it!
This versatile pedal is a small powerhouse for gig musicians with amazing tones for voice, electric and acoustic guitar. The Tc Helicon harmony algorithm is something that will blow you away. It’s almost like if you have a full band choir singing with you. And the start and stop in sync with you by the flick of a switch. It’s magic! If you don’t believe just go to youtube with a good pair of headphone cans and listen for yourself. The most luxurious sounds of the best effects of Tc Helicon are also packed inside of this box that also have a looper to help you on days of lack of imagination and study. I have got so many music ideas just nodding on the knobs and experimenting with amps and sounds of the hundreds of well crafted presets it has. On my honest opinion this pedal only has one rival on the market in 2019. Its big brother! I’m not being paid to say this but this guys are doing it wright and shaking heads with their gear. Big thumbs up to the brand evolution on the last years!! Big fan!

This thing will make you dance while seated.
Yess, its a box that makes a lot of sound. The cajon is an amazingly versatile percussive instrument and this one is no exception. With great tone wood and deep fat base this box will make your hear pump like thunder. I have mine for many years. It opened for me the doors to the percussion world and taught me a lot of the importance of time and rhythm and silence. Yess silence. Every experience musician will get to this conclusion some day. If you have the chance to get your hands on this instrument, go for it. No regrets! Just embrace it and take everything it will give you back with new friends and joy of life.

My first step into music... Never let me down in 25 years.
Man, if my harmonica could talk. It would tell you a story of a boi that fond it on a back of a pawn store in New York. It was love at first time and a marriage that lasted for all those years. If you have an opportunity to buy a harmonica to see if you are gonna love it, just do it. This brand is the most respected name in harps in the hole world, played by so many great well known musicians that have inspired many generations of kids. Trust me, open your wallet give it a try and never look back into your old self when you didn’t believe if you have the guts to hold an instrument. Harp is the most easy instrument in the world to start with. You just have to breath hard on it and the rest of the story you will learn on youtube for sure. You have my world!!

My first string instrument.
If you think this classical guitar is just for kids looking for a god acoustic to rise into a classic concert you are wrong. I have it for 25 years now and boy, this guitar can talk loud. After all of this years playing and learning blues and classic rock this guitar have matured on tone as much as I in musical knowledge. If you have any well made wood instrument for that much time you will understand and believe how much can a guitar grow with time. This Yamaha has more sustain, tone and volume than a lot of expensive ones on the shelf. If you have one, take care of it and pass it on to your kids, friends or anyone with interest in music. My yamaha has enchanted many newcomers to the music addiction. There’s beauty and some magic in instruments with lots of stories.

Awesome hybrid electric acoustic and a god bang for the bucks!!
Very useful instrument with great tone and looks. Both pickup and piezo sound very good with the right set of good strings. My suggestion is 0.11 or 0.12 gauge Elixir strings for electric guitar. I’ve learned thar acoustic guitar strings does not work very well to magnetize the Kent Armstrong lipstick pickup. This is not my first guitar and nowadays is my goto instrument for gigs. Crafter does not sell this guitar anymore but you’ll find it laying down on a flea market one day. Just pay the price and take it to a luthier. You’ll not regret. If you look for a new one Crafter does make the model SAT that is the substitute of this one with P90 pickups. Totally recommended!
