Katana Air : Good compact solution

2 years ago

Pros:

- wireless system working with active pickups

- a good set of classic effects and amplifiers

Minuses:

- lack of effects loop (not critical)

- suitable floor controller and expression pedal are expensive

- the expression pedal (wireless or connected via a wireless footswitch) can only control volume or the Wah effect, although in other versions you can assign it to the Pitch Shifter and other effects via the desktop application

- very limited effects chain options

As a result, a good portable solution for practicing. Due to strange limitations (mostly software ones, which can be easily fixed with firmware) the device cannot be fully used.
