alesis air fx

[Brett Maraldo <plexus@sympatico.ca>]

i just picked up an alesis air fx. i got it at saved by technology in 
toronto for $240CAD (equiv to about $150US). my first impressions are 
good - there is a lot of versatility here and the fidelity is great. 
since the fx get 'played' i would call this an instrument and as such 
it will take some time to master it. it is certainly fun and i think 
it will become an important addition to my set up. like most pieces 
of gear, the airfx isn't a bandaid for creating more interesting 
music: you have to have some interesting stuff going through it first 
before you can make things even more interesting. very cool little 
instrument and i look forward to getting into it.
