Alesis AirFX Demonstration

This took quite a while to make, so please leave a comment if you have the time. Skip to around 2:00 if you just want to see the effects.

There aren't too many videos of the Alesis AirFX... So I thought I'd make one. It's a pretty cool unit, and there's a lot of fun to be had playing with it.
This video shows only the effects presets, and not the synth ones - i'll possibly do a video of them some other time.

Also - I forgot to show the 'hold' feature, which I mention in the intro.
Presets 1 & 41 were omitted from the video, as there was no obvious effect to be heard at all on the recording i made.

If anyone wants to request a demonstration of anything else it can do - feel free and i'll see what i can do.
I've effected guitars, a kaossilator and a few other things with it, as well as put it in a feedback loop... some results are more interesting than others...

cool machine, thanks for the demo, wish i was laying on your bed with your hands moving over me !

@lsapienz Okay...

Is it possible to connect a guitar to this somehow? So I can play a chord and mess it around using magic alesis air fx?

[baacardi]

@secretmiggles Yep - it can be a little awkward to set up what with the connectors being phono but as long as you have the right adapters it's fine. It's cool, but pretty difficult to use effectively (unless maybe you attach the thing to the guitar itself - I think there might be videos where someone's done that...). Definitely something worth experimenting with though.

hi this very good video demonstration that but just wanted to ask mmmm how to connect the air fx alesis step by step and you need to have sis only place where you can listen or if you need a mixer I have one is the XENYX 802 but the fact is that if you could help me connect thanks you find the best ..............................­..........

@soundshitrecords You can see at 0:40 it has a stereo input and a stereo output which requires phono cables. So that's all you need - phono cables... As long as you have the right cables or adapters you can plug it into anything.
