If you like how your korg sounds I would tell you to try the AX1500. I just tried it in a friend's music shop and I find its sounds and effects to be really good. Another machine compared to the AX1000, too. To my hear at least... The thing I liked most of the unit was changing the delay times with the tone knob way down and the feedback to the max. The result sounds really analog to my hear. Similar to the sound I obtained with a very old analog delay. I've tried to do the same with both my rack multifx units and couldn't get even near this result (I tried it with a Boss VF-1, a Digitech Valve FX and a Korg A1). No clicks or pops while turning (quickly) full down and full up the time knob. Only sound swirls. Loved this. And the other fx are good too. Loved the tremolo and the chorus. Plus it has some weird fx in it and a (not so good to be honest) whammy effect, too.
