Korg A3 Performance Signal PROCESSOR Multi Effect

This is a Korg A3 Performance Signal Processor. I'm assuming if you are looking at the listing you are at least familiar with what it is and does. I have owed many of these units over the past 30 years. They have all the effects you would want and are capable of being "expanded" with ROM cards to add new effects, (more about that in a minute).

This unit is very capable of reproducing the guitar tones of the 80's and 90's.
The Edge from the band U2 uses this to get the guitar sound on the song Mysterious Ways.

Many of these units sold today have a dead internal battery, and the backlight for the LCD display have gone dim. NOT THIS ONE, Like I said, I've owned many of these, and on each one I have replaced the backlight with an OEM so it looks like it did when it was brand new. I have also replaced the internal Memory Battery. Your set for years to come.

Ok, lets get back to the ROM Card thing I was talking about early. Yes there are many Expansion Cards to load new effects into the unit. Here's the problem: the cards are hard to find, and very expensive( usually going for $100 per card). Not to worry, there is a great way to have ALL of the cards, without actually having the cards. I have the sysex files for All of them, and you can Easily Upload them to the A3 all you need is a Good MIDI to USB cable. The MIDIMAN UNO from M-Audio is what I have been using. (Not Included, sorry you have to buy your own)
