• Pro Keyboardist Gakushi Reviews the WARM AUDIO “Warm Bender”!

  

  2025/06/30

  Pro keyboardist Gakushi is known for performing and arranging with artists like AI, EXO-CBX, Takuya Kimura, Toshinobu Kubota, Daichi Miura, and ONE OK ROCK, and for forming the funk band “Funkzaurus” with Shikao Suga has now shared his thoughts on the WARM AUDIO “Warm Bender”!
  
  The Warm Bender’s biggest appeal is that it combines three flavors of the legendary Tone Bender fuzz into one unit. It’s also attractively priced, making it ideal for keyboardists who want versatile tone options in a single pedal. It covers a wide sonic range, from Funk and R&B to Rock. If you're looking for a mid-to high-gain fuzz, this is one to consider seriously.
  
  The review features two demo videos—“Warm Bender + Clavinet” and “Warm Bender + Moog Little Phatty”. With the Warm Bender, already-great tones get an extra wild and cool edge!

• Pro Keyboardist Gakushi Reviews the WARM AUDIO “WA-C1”!

  

  2025/06/30

  Pro keyboardist Gakushi, known for his work with artists such as AI, EXO-CBX, Takuya Kimura, Toshinobu Kubota, Daichi Miura, and ONE OK ROCK, and more recently for forming the funk band “Funkzaurus” with Shikao Suga, shares his review of the WARM AUDIO “WA-C1”!
  
  The Warm Audio WA-C1 is an excellent chorus pedal that captures the texture of vintage analog chorus while offering modern functionality.
  Despite its affordable price, it delivers rich, deep tones—perfect for stereo, Hi-Z, and preamp-based performances. I highly recommend it for keyboardists who value vintage sound.
  
  With insightful comments from a keyboardist’s perspective and three demo videos—“WA-C1 CHORUS VIBRATO + RHODES”, “WA-C1 CHORUS VIBRATO Prophet5 Pad”, and “WA-C1 CHORUS Prophet5 Bass”—this review is sure to help you make a smart decision.
