Korg A3 worth it ?

[paugui]

The A3 is the same effects The Edge used on Mysterious Ways, for instance.
I have two A1s and they are really nice.
I guess the A3 must be pretty cool too.

How much is cheap by the way?
Either way, for 100 euros down is a good price, and the only reason why I wouldn't get one at that top price is because I have two A1s, or else I wouldn't hesitate

It's just under £100, of course i would need to spend some money getting a replacement backlight strip for it.

A3's are only overpriced because of the connection to the Edge and U2, that's about it.

Well... I think they are pretty cool effects on their own
And you get a cool interface with knobs, a huge amount of effects and you can use up to 6 of them at the same time (or at least with the A1 you can), so it's a pretty cool effects processor
So I wouldn't say 100€ or £ to be too much for one, even without the connection to The Edge and U2...

I actually used an A3 once and it certainly was 100 stories higher in quality then say an M1 Keyboard Fx. Guitarists actually loved the unit, it had a very responsive feel to the way you played and the FX unit replied, it was a bit "Glassy" though nothing a touch of EQ couldn't fix....Cheap, and $50.00 for a backlight - Yeah.....Go for it! If that's of any help?
