Effects for Violin??? (Zoom A1X Reviewed)

Those of you who have been part of our community for a while know that we don’t review effects processors or pedal as they don’t have string specific features and because there are so many thousands of guitar, bass, and keyboard players who are already doing a great job reviewing this gear.  Last year at NAMM however we came upon Zoom’s A1X Four with presets and effects specifically for acoustic and electric violins. In this video, well not only review the unit from a string player’s perspective, but we’ll also discuss the entire concept of bowed string effects:  is this snake oil and (if not), how well does this unit pull these off?   And of course, we’ll deep-dive into each effect letting you hear every preset and patch for yourself.
