I've seen the Korg Pandora and I must say, I want it.

But I've heard that it isn't that great for gigs? Is this true? And what other do you guys recommend for gigs?
I thought the Pandora would be great and pretty "cheap" but if it wouldn't work that great for live play then it would be useless to buy.

What are your opinions guys?

Thanks anyway



edit: just saw I posted it in the review section in stead of the usual gear section, sorry for that

you can try some from boss or dgtech also Pandora is a good for small places

I want to record with it but I also want to gig with it.
We are just a beginning band so that won't be much and I have a Boss DS-1 for distortion but I want the cool sound that the pandora can give you

All you need for Pandora live is stereo channel on mixer or two mono channels.
I did many (smaller) gigs with it,works just fine.
But if you think doing large venues with Pandora..hmm,dunno.

You can go straight to PA system, but if you don't have good monitoring on stage , or PA system is bad I would not recommend it

Don't recommend, maybe for small clubs and such as a backup or if nothing else is present, but buyins Pandora strictly to do gigs with... better go for amp.

Pretty interesting because I've the Pandora as backup unit, but I've never used - luckily.
Do you put the Pandora on your strap?

No Jerry,haven't putted it on strap still.
Those were really smaller gigs,more like jam sessions.

Hmmmz and what do you guys recommend me then? I want to record with it and also want to play trough my amp...

I dont have that much money.

You can plug Pandora to your amp as well.

But the sound isn't that great or something? Because you say it isn't good for gigs.

You can plug it in amp but just avoid stereo effects

O ok

But I think I'll buy the Pandora (within a couple of months probably).
I'll use it for home playing, recording and on the bands repetitions.
When I do gigs I shall see what I'll do.

The Pandora is FANTASTIC for practice sessions at home, it really is the only tool I need. Its not really designed for gigs, but at the cheap price of the PX4D you cannot fault it !!!

Ok I think that says enough.

Its great.

Smart thinking.
You can even play a gig with it and see the results.

If I get beer over my head I'll know I should buy something else.

Thank you man,
otherwise you must change presets with your right hand, doing some crazy legatos with your left hand

heeheh that will be good for stage performance heheh

Yeah

I just put it near by,on a table or bar chair.
