Keys ran thru EH Freedom Amp??

Post by JB » Mon Mar 06, 2006 1:01 pm

Anyone ever ran a keyboard thru the Electro Harmonix Freedom Amp?? Curious how they sounded?? I'm looking to pick-up a small amp such as this to play a Nord Electro thru on stary nites outside. Open to other suggestions too!

I dunno anything about the Freedom, but I've had some positive experiences with the Crate Taxi. Listenable if not flat frequency-response, rechargeable, runs for six hours on a charge, lightweight.

I've personally run keyboards through it, but I've also heard it on electric violin and basses of various types (including 5-string, yup, it even reproduced the lowest string admirably for something with an 8" speaker).
