Dear Leo, congrats on your content and contribution. I believe you are the very first one comparing this units. We were all waiting after last Namm. In my humble opinion, the greatest deal on buying on of them is amp and cab simulation, for this reason I believe the Pod go, would be my choice. Still pricing in Brazil is an issue. Keep up with this formula buddy.
thanks for another great video leo, its a difficult choice to be honest and ive yet to make up my mind. can I also mention yet more brilliant work musically.
Overall, I think each unit is very good. I chose to go with the pod go mainly because I feel there will be more users who will be sharing more of their own presets for free or for small purchase. Also, I feel the line 6 service and commitment will last longer and be more consistent than Mooer. I’ve owned products from both companies having been very happy with both.
Same. And let's not kid ourselves, this isn't an opinion but truth from experience. Also, Line6 has a much better app for creating presets. Overall, everything just feels smoother with the Pod Go. In the end, you can create Mooer 250/300 every tone on the Pod Go but same cannot be said for the Mooers.
Hi Leo! I just subscribed to your channel today. I love your content and the demeanor with which you present. I appreciate the care you put into these comparisons. I am about to purchase one of these, but I am still undecided (I'm leaning POD GO). For me the top three factors are: 1. Quality of sounds. 2. Ease of use. 3. Portability (size and weight). And they both seem to perform well in these. I'll do a little more research and decide this week.
Hi Michael, thank you so much, your sub really means a lot to me. In any case, I think you are gonna be happy with any of the two and please, if you want, let us know your final decision. Thank you!
I would still go with the Mooer for one crucial reason: XLR outputs with a global EQ. If you want to hook directly into the PA, this is the best option.
Thanks for the video Leo. After having the Pod Go for a couple weeks and having it freeze and do all kinds of weird stuff even after the latest firmware updates I decided to send it back and get the GE250. Your video helped me decide it was a good thing.
The video that I was waiting for, I would choose the pod go for recording but I think I'll wait for a comparison between pod go and hx stomp. Your videos had been a great help. Thanks in advance for all your effort and dedication. I'm following your channel from Colombia.
Leo, this helped me to go to MOOER GE 250. I mainly use the typical amp, cab, delay, and reverb, so it's enough for me, and size is an issue for carrying in gigbag along with the guitar while commuting. Since audience don't really care the difference if any, GE it is... and XLR help out in certain stage with no DI Box provided.
I ended up getting the PodGo after countless videos and debates- I love it. It may not be to a professional musician’s level but for me, a long time student, it’s perfect.
GE250 is more flexible with use of looper and drums. In the Pod Go you have to give up an effect to use the looper, and it doesn't allow you to change patches while looping unless each patch is customized with the looper effect set up. GE250 looper is simple to use and allows for use with all patches.
If you go with the Mooer you are givong up numerous amps, cabs and effects. You are also giving up a better preset editing program. You also loose 2 usb which means you loose 2 midi controllable devices. Pod Go has sold much more so there are also many more custom presets tones available to download for free or small fee. Not to mention you can create snapshots with Pod Go so way more for yiur dollar.
not perfect though. Mooer ge250 doesn´t let you erase only the recent overdub... If record one layer over the first one and want to delete only the last one, forget it. You have to erase everything you recorded.
It was a pretty good comparison and well played! The only point I would add is how many switches can be reconfigured and for what. That might be an extra point to consider in the technical aspects
It can all be done on the edit program on pc, can change or more accurately assign colour to fx or pedal and any pedal/fx to any footswitch all on pod go edit , there's also a way to "jailbreak" the pod go so you can gain a couple slots by deleting code fir wah and volume but not the eq and then re inserting the updated code to user slot. Roughly speaking. I've just got my pod go so I'm going to wiat and get used to the operation if the pedal first before I consider imdoing something I don't know if it will be a detriment to the overall os
All switches can be assigned a purpose and the volume/wah can be assigned to pan etc I'm still getting familiar with the modeller. If you find anything I'm open to suggestions too.
The amount of time and effort that went into that video is remarkable ! Killer quality that leaves nothing to be desired and gives us all the info we need to know . Thank you for sharing this great video Leo ! Cheers !
@@LeoGibsonGtr It is really useful ! I am looking to buy one of those units and this comparison will help a lot ! Also the dual playthrough video trick is crazy ! Super well made !
I already bought the Pod Go. I am very happy with it. The stock patches are really just a starting point. It took me very little time to create 4 banks. One bank for my tele, another for my dual humbucker Kiesel and one for my acoustic and one for my bass. I can use my wireless dongle and switch instruments and go from full shred to mellow acoustic in mere seconds between songs!
Hi, thanks! you have put great time and energy into making your videos, reviews and demos, much appreciated 👍 I'm interested in the IR's for the pod go, I checked out your link to your shop, are the 4 essentials created by you for the line 6 pod go?
beautiful music n playing.loved the solo..i think as mooer 250 having the original rig capturing capability is much more authentic to the actual tone unlike the stock amps n cabs which is more important as many of us cant afford the luxuary of buying 2-4 amp heads n 4/12 cabs n effects so it'll be pretty useful..on the other hand pod go's stock amps cabs are much better than the mooers n some other youtuber's video says the tone is 99%similar as helix with more tonal options..so its really a hard choice to choose from...aboveall really great content my friend.cheers
@@LeoGibsonGtr by the way i bought the ge250 and your videos were very usefull for my decision on which one buy. I started thinking of the Ampero but ended up on the GE 250. Thanks Man! Nice guitars by the way...
Nice. I bought the Pod Go just last week, and I am loving every minute of it. Of course, its not the greatest thing since sliced bread, but, for me, just jamming at home or with my friends, it does everything I want, and tons more that I didn't know I wanted. Very happy with it.
Another great video Leo! Is there a place where I can download IR's that you have made for my new Pod Go that is arriving today? You are becoming one of my favorite channels. Your work and playing are exquisite!
Thank you Brian, your support and appreciation is really important for me. I purchased the IR from Redwirez. This is the link: redwirez.com More specifically it's an IR of a Marshall 1960 G12M miked with an SM 57 at 1 inch. Thank you once more!
GE 250 sounds more realistic, more amp like and rounder. Depends where you GO, if you go to other room for practice, plug and play - then GE 250, better looper and also rythm - my choice.
Great Channel !! I think that legacy actually means something here as well. Line 6 is without a doubt the leader when it comes to the modelling world dating back to the original POD bean and they pretty much have it figured out. I think the Mooer is a decent product although I have heard some issues with support and the software architecture. Everybody is in the game now and everybody puts out a pretty decent product but the Line 6 product and Boss products seem to be head of the pack at this price point. Im glad to have stumbled on your channel Ill no doubt be back !!
Aaaaargh, this is so difficult! Ok, I want to like the Mooer more, because it's smaller, not black, meaning it should be easier to read in the dark. Also, being left-handed, getting a guitar in any other colour than black is very rare, and it used to be impossible, so we all learn to hate black. I also love the midi option, because then I could use my Behringer FCB1010 foot controller. But the mono instead of a stereo fx loop is a real bummer, and I'm not sure I like the Mooer reverb sounds. Much more importantly though, Line6 has a huge community of guitarists like Chris Buck and Rhett Shull selling profiles for Line6 products, and they both have incredibly good taste, so I don't want to miss out on that. But on the other hand, the Mooer can do profiling. Like I said: Aaaaargh!
😊...yes, it is an hard decision...maybe you can also check out the amps and effects list available in both the units to verify if there is something you want and that is available in one unit only. Thank you for your message!
I thought without IR... the more sounded much different to the amp... it was not punchy enough and sounded cheap. This demo really showed the capability of IR... the biggest let down for me with PodGo is lack of midi amp control.
Your videos are excellent and I am envious of your playing ability. I might not understand what the Mooer profiles are, but are they not similar to presets on the Pod Go which can be shared and downloaded from the Line6 Custom Tone website and also bought from the Line6 market place?
Hi Andrew, thank you for the compliments, that really means a lot to me! Presets and profiles are different things. A profile is a "snapshot" of a specific sound of an amp, captured using specific algorithms. For instance in this video I'm explaining the profiling procedure of the Kemper: ua-cam.com/video/nwfTSkk-d70/v-deo.html A preset is just a set of setting of a specific amp and effects. Thank you for your question and I hope this could be of some help
Thank you, I'm happy that you like the video! Yes, it is possible. I have just looked at the manual, and there is written that you have 4 usb in channels, where the first two are for the dry signal of the guitar. Thank you!
@@PedalPoopers he said good things about the pod go. It's not wrong to be slightly partial to the mooer. I switched over to mooer and no regrets. Ge250 was off the chain the moment i plugged it in.
@@mtabet02 I never said it was wrong to be partial, however, people should be honest and list everything both do have and all the missing features, not just some because of their liking. That's what's wrong with the video.
Awesome video! Thanks Leo! This is the one I have been waiting for but you haven’t made the choice between the units any easier- they both sound good. Rock on!
Hi Miguel, sorry for late answering. I've not find the proper solution to share or sell my presets, but if you want, you can download the profiles of my amp that I've done from the Mooer StudioCloud. This is the link to the web site: www.mooerstudio.com/index.html#sample? You just have to search for leogibson in the "search author" text field in the upper right side of the web page. Thank you for your message, and sorry once more for late answering.
I preferred the originals amps, however if I had to choose one modeler, it would be the PodGo. I felt it was closest to the original. The mooer modelers has a distinct sound among all of them, that I just don’t care for. I was really interested in getting a mooer, but every demo I watch, they all sound the same, which tells me I just do not prefer their modeling. It’s all relative, and subjective, but all the mooer modelers are just too thin for my liking. Great demo.
Great Video! Question: On the Mooer can you assign a certain sound to a certain pedal, another sound to another pedal, and another sound to another pedal? Example: an overdrive sound on pedal 1, a clean sound with delay on pedal 2, and a chorus sound on pedal 3. Basically use as independent effects pedals. OR do you need to page up and down to get to your favorite sound? Thank You Andy
Thank you so much Leo, I finally bought a mooer ge250! To record some tunes at home, it fits perfect to my needs. Plus I don't need to buy an audio interface to plug it to the computer.... But I'm wondering if I can use the bass too??
Hi Francisco, you are welcome, I'm happy to have been of some help! Yes, I think you can, as there should not be bass amp in the GE 250. But I think you can search for some bass amp profiled in the Mooer Web site Thank you!
Well I bought the ge250 and the unit didn't turn on (brand new) so I asked for a refund and I bought the pod go. Everything happens for a reason I guess..... Still thanks for your content Leo 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you, I'm happy that you enjoyed it!!! If you are interest in the HX Stomp, maybe you could be interested in this video: ua-cam.com/video/MZFsoYLg8sI/v-deo.html Thank you once more!!!
Thank you for sharing your testing and personal thoughts. I appreciate both setups, but neither is a must for me. My Xtone Pro with an external effects pedal even exceeds my limited needs. Your reviews allow me to curb my GAS (gear acquisition syndrome), as your testing highlights enough to bring context to anyone. I do wonder, do you use a dedicated looper ahead of the devices to record your playing, and then feed each unit the same "played piece" ? Just thinking about even more isolated methodology.
Hi, thank you! I typically record a DI guitar signal in my DAW and then I reamp going in the real amp, then in each of the modelers. Thank you for your question!
@@sonickmoon Hi, I use an Apollo X16 in conjunction with an Apollo X twin. Here two videos about these interfaces: ua-cam.com/video/uN-QTCQ6gIw/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/DTW8IBPHWPY/v-deo.html Thank you for your message!
pod go has good warm and great dynamic sound than the ge 250 . ge 250 is bright but real amps are close to pod go ..and great playing by the way. i love to see your playing in coming videos .
Thank you Paul, both for sharing your opinion and for the compliments! I'm currently working to another video comparison: I will uploaded during the weekend...so stay tuned 😊! So far you may want to check out the demo song I've written for that comparison video: ua-cam.com/video/xT7-XU3Mv6s/v-deo.html Thank you once more!
I chose one of them. That's all what i was here for. Another classic example of Content is King. Thank you for keeping us in mind while preparing the content.
Excellent video and comparison of the two units. Well done and great information. I have an off topic question: What model Mesa Boogie Mark series is that in your studio? I have been a Mesa user for many many years and used to own the Mesa Boogie Mark IIA model (sorry i did not hold on to it). I do have a Mark IV combo these days, which is great also. I did consider the Mark V combo, but I don't like the wide body cabinet compared to the older Mark series. Thanks and well done video. All the best. Philip NYC Area
Thank you Philip. I have a Mesa Boogie Lone Star and a Mesa Boogie Caliber 50 (which is not visible as it is in the cabinet room). I also love Mesa Boogie amps...for sure they are among the best on the market. Thank you once more!
@@LeoGibsonGtr Ah yes. I incorrectly thought the black tolex Mesa in your room was a Mark series Boogie. I forgot about the 50 Caliber amps, as those Caliber series look a lot like the Mark series. I considered getting the Mesa Mark V 35 watt amp, but I would rather at this stage get some kind of modeling pedal (for doing solos) that I can use for recording originals (Jazz Fusion Type songs)...Thanks. Philip
@@LeoGibsonGtr Cool. My Mesa Mark IV (short width cabinet) is from the early 90's too. It is a great amp, but like many of the Mark series amps it is very heavy. I bought a smaller boutique hand built amp, just for jamming, because it is a lot lighter to take out. It is made by a little known amp company called Red Plate, made here in the US. Philip
Hello Leo. This is my first video to meet you. That was an amazing comparison. You totally add value to this absolute video junk depot named youtube. Looking forward for your next share. Subs Likes ON. Cheers.
i guess Im asking randomly but does someone know a trick to log back into an Instagram account? I somehow lost my account password. I would appreciate any tips you can offer me!
@Davis Ellis I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
There is another detail worth comparing: in a live situation you would use presets, assigned to 2-3 switches. When you change presets, in most processors there is a small pause of the sound. This also happens on both Mooer and Line6. However, I understood from other videos that on the Pod Go you could avoid that by using the 'snapshot' option. Can anyone comment on that?
Hi Leo, can you tell me, if any of the FX units from your HUGE round-up comparison test can: (1) Let you use a specific effect, like DELAY twice in the same patch? (2) Let you change the order of the FX in the chain? I wonder if the Pod Go can do at least 2 delays in one patch for the extra money...
I had the NUX on pre-order on a hunch, before seeing your huge round-up comparison test. I think the unit has a very clean sound and the FX I tried out so far - they were all decent or better to my ears. But what bothers me are two things: (1) I can't change the order of the FX! (2) I can't put the same FX twice, like dual delay = impossible :((. A lesser wevil is the ridiculously cumbersome scheme to pick letters to name your presets :p (the letters don't even loop around from Z-> back to ->A
Hi Leo, in the footswitch section you didn't mention 250 A-B-C ones can activate a second set of effects in the same patch (as a line6 snapshot I think..)...maybe is uncorrect to count them as phisically 5, they function as like they are 8
How you connected effects during comparison with real amp? Did you use FRFR? Or just plug them into amp? Or maybe we could hear direct output vs microphoned jcm800?
Hi, I have two strategies: if I want the possibility to listen to the sound of the amp alone, without effects, then I record just the amp without fx and I add them in the Digital Audio Workstation. If I don't need to hear the amp alone, I record directly the sound of the pedalboard with effects Thank you for your question!
Great comparison, Leo! As always, a very useful vid. I agree with you: it´s surprising how similar they sound with the same external IR, even the real JCM800. I also find the Pod Go quite different form the real thing when using its internal IR... such an improvment to use the external one! Please, could you tell us which IR are you loading? Maybe it´s worth buying it! Great work, man. Thank you.
GE250 has a dynamic range of 100db where PodGo has 112db. This looks huge on paper however i can't hear it in the recording. I am wondering what's your take on this.
Hi Steven, this is a pretty good point. Actually, first of all I would say that these are data coming from the builders, so we are not completely sure that they are right and comparable. Nevertheless the difference is pretty important (as you also noticed) and tells us that the Audio Interface of the POD GO is better. Now, in order to hear that difference you need to have a pretty good equipment (monitors, the converters of your audio interface, the room in which you hear the music, etc...) and the difference can also be lost in hyper distorted tones or in ultra effected tones...Summarizing, assuming that the info provided by the builders are ok, you can hear them if you have a pretty good audio equipment, you make the right test, etc. Finally, if you can not hear the difference, you are free to make your choice judging other parameters. Thank you for your question!
Man the IR really made a difference with both units. The Pod Go was too fuzzy and the Mooer was too tinny sounding with stock cabs but with the IR, both were nearly identical.
The points you mentioned in this video are the ones why I chose the mooer ge250 over the POD GO. Yes, the POD go is a nice product but I wanted something smaller, lighter, and sort of "fully" featured. Plus the capability of profiling amps and downloading them from mooer studio can not be denied, I am still waiting for mooer to release GE Labs for Windows thou -_-. Regarding amp sounds... well, is subjective, I already have a set of IR's that I use so I do not even think I will use the ones in the mooer and as you said, the differences are very small when using the same IR. Yes, the POD go has more amps but being able to profile or get the one you really want or need is also great. I just wish the mooer had more fx's thou, especially the particle verb from line 6 :(
Very nice playing sir. Having listened on good flat response speakers, and I know youtube compresses the sound, well... I would go with the Mooer for one simple obvious reason, and that is... it actually sounded 99 percent closer to the real amps. Same tone and drive. The line 6 wasn't close. Tone didn't match. Not as lifelike to my ears. Good video though, thank you.
Leo: very good work. Congrats! I've read in the manual that the Pod Go receives and transmits MIDI messages via USB. So it can be controlled via a computer like device. I just don't know if there are on the market MIDI controllers or other devices that use USB to control effects. Do you know about that?
Hi Antonio, yes there are such devices (for instance the Looptimus Foot Controller). I don't know if they are gonna work with the POD GO. If someone knows, please put a comment here. Thank you!
God job. I love your videos. I think it has failed to speak about the effects. I have read that the pitchsifter and drop effect are of higher quality on the pod go. It is something in favor, for those who want to play in alternative tunings.
Hi Leo. Ha senso secondo te oggi prendere un line6 podgo hd 500? Vengo da Mooer ge 200 ma sto cercando un' alternativa con suoni migliori e ho visto che il podgo hd 500 ( so che è datato ) non sarebbe male . Che ne pensi nel 2023 ? Grazie e complimenti come sempre .
Ciao Niccolò, non ho mai provato l'hd500, ma direi che dipende dal prezzo. Se trovi un'occasione veramente economica può aver senso, anche se non credo migliorerai sensibilmente il suono vs il Mooer. Un caro saluto!
Sono d'accordo con le tue conclusioni, ed aggiungo che grazie al midi, ti porti la mooer e una piccola pedaliera midi (tipo la Rolls a 8 pulsanti) in uno zaino e vai in moto a suonare o in studio. E poi c'è la profilazione. La line 6 è un "casciabbanco". Non c'è paragone. Belle recensioni, continua così, un abbraccio
Leo, I want to record guitars and vocals, not at the same time necesarilly, could I use the modellers as an interface for both or just for guitars, or I need a mixer or an interface to do that? I really appreciate your help. Thanks.
Hi, I don't think you can record condenser vocal mics with these unit, because for instance they don't provide phantom power. A solution can be an using the configuration explained in this video: ua-cam.com/video/naTeXd5boA4/v-deo.html Thank you for your question!
Hi, in terms of sounds I think that there are not drastic differences even if I have not done a direct comparison...that I should do by the way..... The differences are mostly related to the features...more footswitches in the POD GO, some effects in parallel for the NUX, etc. Thank you for your question!
Hi when recorded in with Pod Go' s USB audio interface ( I hear it can do 24/96) , does the stereo reverbs/delays get recorded in two tracks L and R or one single track ?
Sometimes less is more.. simple interface and very good sounds for me the pod go is the winner.. I dont wanna just keep tweaking for hours id rather play
Hi, well, the cheaper is the NUX 300 which is less than half the price of the other two. As regards the Ampero or the POD GO, it depends also if you need to use it live and you need more footswitches. In that case the Pod go could be a better option. Thank you for your question!
Leo, please see if you can help me with a doubt... On the ge 250, if I link it with my real amp via a 4 cables method on the loop effects, would it be possible to change the amp channels via the mooer switches? I mean, could I control some of my amp features via the mooer, like it is possible to do on a boss GT1000 for exemple?
Hi, unfortunately I don't think it is possible...no such output is available in the GE 250. I think it is not possible also with the POD GO. If I'm wrong, please someone correct me. Thank you for your message!
Great, great demo. What about the effects quality and tweakability? I once tested the GE200, and the effects were really poor with only few parameters to tweak. And what about "handling"? How easy is it to create a patch without the editing software? How manageable is it in a live situation (access to the sounds you need, minor tweaks while playing)?
Thank you, your appreciation and feedback is really important for me! Well, it's a matter of taste, I would be happy with both. The row of bottom below the screen of the GE 250 is pretty handy, Thank you for your message!
i think the drum machine is also important. as you can jam and practice with it. moreover, i thought ge250 allows you to change the power amp? something you cant do with the pod go.
Which is more user friendly or suited for someone who has little knowledge on the digital modellers. Your guidance would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance.
Hi Roger, I think you are gonna have no problem with both of them. Especially the computer app of both the unit is pretty easy to be used. If you want to use just the physical unit, maybe the row of buttons below the screen provided by the GE 250 allows for easier operations...but it is a nuance...I would say. Thank you for your message!
Hi Leo - thanks for your superb presentations - I am looking for a multi effects modeller for playing a wide range of creative, avante-garde and ambient type music - I'd really appreciate it if you would let me know your recommendations?
Hi, thank you very much!!! For ambient music I guess you are gonna use specific and creative effects chains, so I would suggest the Helix, the GT 1000 or the Fractal FM3, which have nice effects and let you built very complex and creative effects chains Thank you for your message!
@@LeoGibsonGtr Thank you Leo - However those options are a little out of my financial range... How good is the Pod Go for doing experimental ambient stuff?
Hi, it's good, but the effect chain has to be kept simple...so I don't know if it's ok for your needs. Another unit that allows complex effect chain is the GT 1000 core. Thank you!
Hi Alexander, they are both pretty easy to use...I personally love the row of buttons below the screen of the Mooer that gives you and easy and fast access to all effects and amps. Thank you for your message!
I must need to get my earing checked...it sounds like the ge250 has a very pronounced high mid thing going on. The Pod go seemed to me a bit oversaturated.
Hi buddy great videos, let me ask you, im very beginner, i want one pedalboard for Home practice like the Mooer, principaly i wanna play with differents sounds and tons but i wanna out the sound trough speakers like prosonus eris 3.5 that would be a good setup? Thanks man
Most underrated channel outhere! The playing alone is mindblowing plus the comparisons are on point and easy to take away . Keep up the good job
Thank you Rafael, this is really a great compliment, that makes me happy!!!
this guy is amazing, great playing, great tone, great demo, great comparison, great gear
Thank you, really appreciated! Your message makes me happy!
Dear Leo, congrats on your content and contribution. I believe you are the very first one comparing this units. We were all waiting after last Namm. In my humble opinion, the greatest deal on buying on of them is amp and cab simulation, for this reason I believe the Pod go, would be my choice. Still pricing in Brazil is an issue. Keep up with this formula buddy.
Thank you, Marcelo, for the compliments and for sharing your opinion with us!
thanks for another great video leo, its a difficult choice to be honest and ive yet to make up my mind. can I also mention yet more brilliant work musically.
Thank you, really really appreciated! When someone like my music....I'm really happy! 😊
Overall, I think each unit is very good. I chose to go with the pod go mainly because I feel there will be more users who will be sharing more of their own presets for free or for small purchase. Also, I feel the line 6 service and commitment will last longer and be more consistent than Mooer. I’ve owned products from both companies having been very happy with both.
Hi Matt, thank you for sharing your opinion with us!
Same. And let's not kid ourselves, this isn't an opinion but truth from experience. Also, Line6 has a much better app for creating presets. Overall, everything just feels smoother with the Pod Go. In the end, you can create Mooer 250/300 every tone on the Pod Go but same cannot be said for the Mooers.
does pod go pitch shifter is any good like digitech pedal droptune?
Hi Leo! I just subscribed to your channel today. I love your content and the demeanor with which you present. I appreciate the care you put into these comparisons. I am about to purchase one of these, but I am still undecided (I'm leaning POD GO). For me the top three factors are:
1. Quality of sounds.
2. Ease of use.
3. Portability (size and weight).
And they both seem to perform well in these. I'll do a little more research and decide this week.
Hi Michael, thank you so much, your sub really means a lot to me.
In any case, I think you are gonna be happy with any of the two and please, if you want, let us know your final decision.
Thank you!
And what you choose?)
I would still go with the Mooer for one crucial reason: XLR outputs with a global EQ. If you want to hook directly into the PA, this is the best option.
Hi, thank you for sharing your opinion with us
PodGo has trs balanced ouputs, also Global Eq.
@@noemario2348 No XLR output though.
That's my same thought. It's a preference, but I prefer XLR outputs .. I've tried both of these and to me Mooer makesa very good ME unit
Best detailed product review on YT, good job 👍

Thank you Bob, I'm sorry for your bad experience, and I wish you the best with the GE 250. Thank you for your message!!!
The video that I was waiting for, I would choose the pod go for recording but I think I'll wait for a comparison between pod go and hx stomp. Your videos had been a great help. Thanks in advance for all your effort and dedication. I'm following your channel from Colombia.
Thank you, really appreciated! I'm really happy to have been of some help!
I loved your two cents, keep on with the good work!
Thank you so much, you feedback is super important for me!!!
Leo, this helped me to go to MOOER GE 250. I mainly use the typical amp, cab, delay, and reverb, so it's enough for me, and size is an issue for carrying in gigbag along with the guitar while commuting. Since audience don't really care the difference if any, GE it is... and XLR help out in certain stage with no DI Box provided.
Hi, thank you for sharing you findings! I'm happy to have been of some help!!
I ended up getting the PodGo after countless videos and debates- I love it. It may not be to a professional musician’s level but for me, a long time student, it’s perfect.

@@alwaysrockn2009 hey man have you used pod go as audio interface and recorded guitar?
@@IhorMahonov . Nope. Not yet. If you have tried, have you encountered any problems?
First of all great video, second, it’s amazing the level of quality of the Mooer, it’s superior to Line 6.
Thank you, really appreciated!
GE250 is more flexible with use of looper and drums. In the Pod Go you have to give up an effect to use the looper, and it doesn't allow you to change patches while looping unless each patch is customized with the looper effect set up. GE250 looper is simple to use and allows for use with all patches.
Hi, good points, thank you for pointing them out!!!
If you go with the Mooer you are givong up numerous amps, cabs and effects. You are also giving up a better preset editing program. You also loose 2 usb which means you loose 2 midi controllable devices. Pod Go has sold much more so there are also many more custom presets tones available to download for free or small fee. Not to mention you can create snapshots with Pod Go so way more for yiur dollar.
not perfect though. Mooer ge250 doesn´t let you erase only the recent overdub... If record one layer over the first one and want to delete only the last one, forget it. You have to erase everything you recorded.
You do great reviews, and you are a very good guitarist. :)
Thank you, really appreciated!
It was a pretty good comparison and well played! The only point I would add is how many switches can be reconfigured and for what. That might be an extra point to consider in the technical aspects
Hi Armando, thank you for your appreciation of the video and for your suggestion!
It can all be done on the edit program on pc, can change or more accurately assign colour to fx or pedal and any pedal/fx to any footswitch all on pod go edit , there's also a way to "jailbreak" the pod go so you can gain a couple slots by deleting code fir wah and volume but not the eq and then re inserting the updated code to user slot. Roughly speaking. I've just got my pod go so I'm going to wiat and get used to the operation if the pedal first before I consider imdoing something I don't know if it will be a detriment to the overall os
All switches can be assigned a purpose and the volume/wah can be assigned to pan etc I'm still getting familiar with the modeller. If you find anything I'm open to suggestions too.
The amount of time and effort that went into that video is remarkable ! Killer quality that leaves nothing to be desired and gives us all the info we need to know . Thank you for sharing this great video Leo ! Cheers !
Thank you, I'm really super happy that you enjoy the video and find it useful!!!
@@LeoGibsonGtr It is really useful ! I am looking to buy one of those units and this comparison will help a lot ! Also the dual playthrough video trick is crazy ! Super well made !
Thank you!!!!
I already bought the Pod Go. I am very happy with it. The stock patches are really just a starting point. It took me very little time to create 4 banks. One bank for my tele, another for my dual humbucker Kiesel and one for my acoustic and one for my bass. I can use my wireless dongle and switch instruments and go from full shred to mellow acoustic in mere seconds between songs!
Hi Ken, thank you for sharing your opinion and experience!
Can you use the pod go for the bass? I mean the unit is not gonna give you bugs or something after???
@@fran_akron Yes there are amp sims for bass amps. I'm using the woody bass with an 18 in cab sim
Thanks for your reply Ken!
thanks a lot for these videos, I always come back to watch these videos, and I know that it's a lot of hard work to review all this gear
You are welcome, and I'm super happy that you like the videos!!!
Hi, thanks!
you have put great time and energy into making your videos, reviews and demos, much appreciated 👍
I'm interested in the IR's for the pod go, I checked out your link to your shop, are the 4 essentials created by you for the line 6 pod go?
You are welcome and I'm happy that you appreciate the videos!
Yes, you can use the IRs in the link also with the POD GO.
Thank you!
Thanks for this video Leo. It was very useful for me!! 🎉
You are welcome and I'm really happy to have been of some help!!!
beautiful music n playing.loved the solo..i think as mooer 250 having the original rig capturing capability is much more authentic to the actual tone unlike the stock amps n cabs which is more important as many of us cant afford the luxuary of buying 2-4 amp heads n 4/12 cabs n effects so it'll be pretty useful..on the other hand pod go's stock amps cabs are much better than the mooers n some other youtuber's video says the tone is 99%similar as helix with more tonal options..so its really a hard choice to choose from...aboveall really great content my friend.cheers
Thank you, appreciated!
Nice video! Here in Brazil, POD is twice the price of the Mooer 250. And i agree with the guy below about the drum machine, very usefull.
Thank you Marcelo, I didn't know about that huge price difference in Brazil....Thanks for the info!!!
@@LeoGibsonGtr by the way i bought the ge250 and your videos were very usefull for my decision on which one buy. I started thinking of the Ampero but ended up on the GE 250. Thanks Man! Nice guitars by the way...
@@mdaronch Thank you for letting me know! I'm really happy to have been of some help!!!
@@mdaronch Acho que com um bom IR, a 250 faz o papel muito bem. Ainda mais por ter o tone capture. Ambas são boas, mas o preço conta.
@@BandaVelhosNovos totalmente. Muita diferença e acho que a 250 já quebra o galho bem quebrado.
Nice. I bought the Pod Go just last week, and I am loving every minute of it. Of course, its not the greatest thing since sliced bread, but, for me, just jamming at home or with my friends, it does everything I want, and tons more that I didn't know I wanted. Very happy with it.
Hi, thank you for your message and for sharing your opinion with us...I'm also having great time with the POD GO!
Another great video Leo! Is there a place where I can download IR's that you have made for my new Pod Go that is arriving today? You are becoming one of my favorite channels. Your work and playing are exquisite!
Thank you Brian, your support and appreciation is really important for me. I purchased the IR from Redwirez. This is the link: redwirez.com
More specifically it's an IR of a Marshall 1960 G12M miked with an SM 57 at 1 inch.
Thank you once more!
Leo Gibson Thank you!
You are welcome!
Wow, I am amazed about the videos quality! Great work!!!
Hi, thank you!!!! Your compliments really make me happy!
GE 250 sounds more realistic, more amp like and rounder. Depends where you GO, if you go to other room for practice, plug and play - then GE 250, better looper and also rythm - my choice.
Hi, thank you for sharing your opinion with us!!!!
Great Channel !! I think that legacy actually means something here as well. Line 6 is without a doubt the leader when it comes to the modelling world dating back to the original POD bean and they pretty much have it figured out. I think the Mooer is a decent product
although I have heard some issues with support and the software architecture. Everybody is in the game now and everybody puts out a pretty decent product but the Line 6 product and Boss products seem to be head of the pack at this price point.
Im glad to have stumbled on your channel Ill no doubt be back !!
Thank you for sharing your opinion and experience! Thank you so much also for the kind words about my channel...really appreciated!
Fractal > Line 6
Great! Always high quality video with beautiful and elegant composition!
Thank you, your appreciation of my music is really important for me!
hahahah I LOVE THE WAY you shred the neck of that strat...with this level of skill any modeler will sound good actually
😊 Thank you!
Aaaaargh, this is so difficult! Ok, I want to like the Mooer more, because it's smaller, not black, meaning it should be easier to read in the dark. Also, being left-handed, getting a guitar in any other colour than black is very rare, and it used to be impossible, so we all learn to hate black. I also love the midi option, because then I could use my Behringer FCB1010 foot controller. But the mono instead of a stereo fx loop is a real bummer, and I'm not sure I like the Mooer reverb sounds.
Much more importantly though, Line6 has a huge community of guitarists like Chris Buck and Rhett Shull selling profiles for Line6 products, and they both have incredibly good taste, so I don't want to miss out on that. But on the other hand, the Mooer can do profiling.
Like I said: Aaaaargh!
😊...yes, it is an hard decision...maybe you can also check out the amps and effects list available in both the units to verify if there is something you want and that is available in one unit only.
Thank you for your message!
I thought without IR... the more sounded much different to the amp... it was not punchy enough and sounded cheap.
This demo really showed the capability of IR... the biggest let down for me with PodGo is lack of midi amp control.
Hi, Hi, thank you for sharing your opinion with us!
Your videos are excellent and I am envious of your playing ability. I might not understand what the Mooer profiles are, but are they not similar to presets on the Pod Go which can be shared and downloaded from the Line6 Custom Tone website and also bought from the Line6 market place?
Hi Andrew, thank you for the compliments, that really means a lot to me! Presets and profiles are different things. A profile is a "snapshot" of a specific sound of an amp, captured using specific algorithms. For instance in this video I'm explaining the profiling procedure of the Kemper: ua-cam.com/video/nwfTSkk-d70/v-deo.html
A preset is just a set of setting of a specific amp and effects.
Thank you for your question and I hope this could be of some help
Leo your videos are fantastic thank you. After a tough decision I just ordered ge250!! Thank you for the extensive comparison.
Hi, thank you for letting me know! Appreciated!
Hey Leo, Great review. Sub'd. Question - Do you know if you can pass the DI (dry) and processed signals out of the POD simultaneously? Thanks!
Thank you, I'm happy that you like the video! Yes, it is possible. I have just looked at the manual, and there is written that you have 4 usb in channels, where the first two are for the dry signal of the guitar.
Thank you!
Great demo Leo Thanks! Very helpful.

Thank you Andrei, really appreciated!
The intro shows the sound of the pod and the amp are almost identical while the moore had poor low end and sounds less room filling
Hi, thank you for sharing your opinion with us!
@@LeoGibsonGtr How come you won't give a heart to anyone who says something positive about the Pod Go? How much is Mooer paying you?
@@PedalPoopers he said good things about the pod go. It's not wrong to be slightly partial to the mooer. I switched over to mooer and no regrets. Ge250 was off the chain the moment i plugged it in.
@@mtabet02 I never said it was wrong to be partial, however, people should be honest and list everything both do have and all the missing features, not just some because of their liking. That's what's wrong with the video.

Hi, it's not an easy choice... you are right :). Thank you!
Hi Leo, excelent job. All yor GE250 sounds are brilliant. Is it posible to download your GE250 presets after paying if its necesary?
Hi Miguel, sorry for late answering. I've not find the proper solution to share or sell my presets, but if you want, you can download the profiles of my amp that I've done from the Mooer StudioCloud. This is the link to the web site: www.mooerstudio.com/index.html#sample? You just have to search for leogibson in the "search author" text field in the upper right side of the web page.

Grazie Tony, really super appreciated!
Thank you for this specific comparison.
You are welcome!!!
I preferred the originals amps, however if I had to choose one modeler, it would be the PodGo. I felt it was closest to the original. The mooer modelers has a distinct sound among all of them, that I just don’t care for. I was really interested in getting a mooer, but every demo I watch, they all sound the same, which tells me I just do not prefer their modeling. It’s all relative, and subjective, but all the mooer modelers are just too thin for my liking. Great demo.
Hi, thank you for sharing your opinion with us!!!
Great Video! Question: On the Mooer can you assign a certain sound to a certain pedal, another sound to another pedal, and another sound to another pedal? Example: an overdrive sound on pedal 1, a clean sound with delay on pedal 2, and a chorus sound on pedal 3. Basically use as independent effects pedals. OR do you need to page up and down to get to your favorite sound? Thank You Andy
Thank you so much Leo, I finally bought a mooer ge250! To record some tunes at home, it fits perfect to my needs. Plus I don't need to buy an audio interface to plug it to the computer.... But I'm wondering if I can use the bass too??
Hi Francisco, you are welcome, I'm happy to have been of some help! Yes, I think you can, as there should not be bass amp in the GE 250. But I think you can search for some bass amp profiled in the Mooer Web site
Thank you!
Well I bought the ge250 and the unit didn't turn on (brand new) so I asked for a refund and I bought the pod go. Everything happens for a reason I guess..... Still thanks for your content Leo 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Thank you for sharing your testing and personal thoughts. I appreciate both setups, but neither is a must for me. My Xtone Pro with an external effects pedal even exceeds my limited needs. Your reviews allow me to curb my GAS (gear acquisition syndrome), as your testing highlights enough to bring context to anyone.
I do wonder, do you use a dedicated looper ahead of the devices to record your playing, and then feed each unit the same "played piece" ? Just thinking about even more isolated methodology.
Hi, thank you! I typically record a DI guitar signal in my DAW and then I reamp going in the real amp, then in each of the modelers. Thank you for your question!

Excellent video and comparison of the two units. Well done and great information.
I have an off topic question:
What model Mesa Boogie Mark series is that in your studio? I have been a Mesa user for many many years and used to own the Mesa Boogie Mark IIA model (sorry i did not hold on to it). I do have a Mark IV combo these days, which is great also. I did consider the Mark V combo, but I don't like the wide body cabinet compared to the older Mark series. Thanks and well done video. All the best.

Thank you Philip. I have a Mesa Boogie Lone Star and a Mesa Boogie Caliber 50 (which is not visible as it is in the cabinet room). I also love Mesa Boogie amps...for sure they are among the best on the market.
Thank you once more!
@@LeoGibsonGtr Ah yes. I incorrectly thought the black tolex Mesa in your room was a Mark series Boogie. I forgot about the 50 Caliber amps, as those Caliber series look a lot like the Mark series. I considered getting the Mesa Mark V 35 watt amp, but I would rather at this stage get some kind of modeling pedal (for doing solos) that I can use for recording originals (Jazz Fusion Type songs)...Thanks.
Philip
Hi Philip, yes, the Caliber looks like a Mark little brother. Mine is very old...I bought it second hand...I think it was built around 1992...
@@LeoGibsonGtr Cool. My Mesa Mark IV (short width cabinet) is from the early 90's too. It is a great amp, but like many of the Mark series amps it is very heavy. I bought a smaller boutique hand built amp, just for jamming, because it is a lot lighter to take out. It is made by a little known amp company called Red Plate, made here in the US.

Grazie anche per avermelo fatto sapere!
Un caro saluto
Just ordered the GE300, can't wait to make music with it
Hi David, thank you for letting us know!!!
There is another detail worth comparing: in a live situation you would use presets, assigned to 2-3 switches. When you change presets, in most processors there is a small pause of the sound. This also happens on both Mooer and Line6. However, I understood from other videos that on the Pod Go you could avoid that by using the 'snapshot' option. Can anyone comment on that?
I think that if you really want to seamlessly switch on and off multiple effects, the snapshot function is an handy and helpful solution
Hi Leo, can you tell me, if any of the FX units from your HUGE round-up comparison test can:
(1) Let you use a specific effect, like DELAY twice in the same patch?
(2) Let you change the order of the FX in the chain?
I wonder if the Pod Go can do at least 2 delays in one patch for the extra money...
I had the NUX on pre-order on a hunch, before seeing your huge round-up comparison test.
I think the unit has a very clean sound and the FX I tried out so far - they were all decent or better to my ears.
But what bothers me are two things: (1) I can't change the order of the FX! (2) I can't put the same FX twice, like dual delay = impossible :((. A lesser wevil is the ridiculously cumbersome scheme to pick letters to name your presets :p (the letters don't even loop around from Z-> back to ->A
And Pod Go vs GE 300?
Also curious about the older GE stuff like the black and red truck.
Hi Philippe, thank you for your message....I would need another life to make all these video 😊....I will try to do my best!
Hi Leo, in the footswitch section you didn't mention 250 A-B-C ones can activate a second set of effects in the same patch (as a line6 snapshot I think..)...maybe is uncorrect to count them as phisically 5, they function as like they are 8
Hi Fabrizio, good point, thank you for pointing it out!
How you connected effects during comparison with real amp? Did you use FRFR? Or just plug them into amp? Or maybe we could hear direct output vs microphoned jcm800?
Hi, I have two strategies: if I want the possibility to listen to the sound of the amp alone, without effects, then I record just the amp without fx and I add them in the Digital Audio Workstation. If I don't need to hear the amp alone, I record directly the sound of the pedalboard with effects
Thank you for your question!
Great comparison, Leo! As always, a very useful vid.
I agree with you: it´s surprising how similar they sound with the same external IR, even the real JCM800. I also find the Pod Go quite different form the real thing when using its internal IR... such an improvment to use the external one!
Please, could you tell us which IR are you loading? Maybe it´s worth buying it!
Great work, man. Thank you.

Hi, thank you! I use a Suhr reactive load.
@@LeoGibsonGtr obrigado!!!
GE250 has a dynamic range of 100db where PodGo has 112db. This looks huge on paper however i can't hear it in the recording. I am wondering what's your take on this.
Hi Steven, this is a pretty good point. Actually, first of all I would say that these are data coming from the builders, so we are not completely sure that they are right and comparable. Nevertheless the difference is pretty important (as you also noticed) and tells us that the Audio Interface of the POD GO is better. Now, in order to hear that difference you need to have a pretty good equipment (monitors, the converters of your audio interface, the room in which you hear the music, etc...) and the difference can also be lost in hyper distorted tones or in ultra effected tones...Summarizing, assuming that the info provided by the builders are ok, you can hear them if you have a pretty good audio equipment, you make the right test, etc.
Finally, if you can not hear the difference, you are free to make your choice judging other parameters.
Thank you for your question!
your videos are cool and very useful. and the playing is great. thanks.

Grazi molta bene, very nice Thnx playing and explaning, Bravo keep uploading , Mille grazi, caio, from the Netherlands, Amsterdam.
Hi Hans, thank you so much, your appreciation and compliments really make me happy!!!!
Man the IR really made a difference with both units. The Pod Go was too fuzzy and the Mooer was too tinny sounding with stock cabs but with the IR, both were nearly identical.
Hi, thank you for sharing!
just purchased line 6 pod go online at sweetwater....hope i wont regret
Hi, thank you for letting us know! I think you will enjoy it!
The points you mentioned in this video are the ones why I chose the mooer ge250 over the POD GO. Yes, the POD go is a nice product but I wanted something smaller, lighter, and sort of "fully" featured. Plus the capability of profiling amps and downloading them from mooer studio can not be denied, I am still waiting for mooer to release GE Labs for Windows thou -_-. Regarding amp sounds... well, is subjective, I already have a set of IR's that I use so I do not even think I will use the ones in the mooer and as you said, the differences are very small when using the same IR. Yes, the POD go has more amps but being able to profile or get the one you really want or need is also great. I just wish the mooer had more fx's thou, especially the particle verb from line 6 :(
Hi, thank you for sharing your valuable opinion with us!
Very nice playing sir. Having listened on good flat response speakers, and I know youtube compresses the sound, well... I would go with the Mooer for one simple obvious reason, and that is... it actually sounded 99 percent closer to the real amps. Same tone and drive. The line 6 wasn't close. Tone didn't match. Not as lifelike to my ears. Good video though, thank you.
Hi Mark, thank you!
Leo: very good work. Congrats!
I've read in the manual that the Pod Go receives and transmits MIDI messages via USB. So it can be controlled via a computer like device.
I just don't know if there are on the market MIDI controllers or other devices that use USB to control effects. Do you know about that?
Hi Antonio, yes there are such devices (for instance the Looptimus Foot Controller). I don't know if they are gonna work with the POD GO. If someone knows, please put a comment here. Thank you!
God job. I love your videos.
I think it has failed to speak about the effects. I have read that the pitchsifter and drop effect are of higher quality on the pod go. It is something in favor, for those who want to play in alternative tunings.
Hi, thank you for sharing your opinion with us!
Hi Leo. Ha senso secondo te oggi prendere un line6 podgo hd 500? Vengo da Mooer ge 200 ma sto cercando un' alternativa con suoni migliori e ho visto che il podgo hd 500 ( so che è datato ) non sarebbe male . Che ne pensi nel 2023 ?
Grazie e complimenti come sempre .
Ciao Niccolò, non ho mai provato l'hd500, ma direi che dipende dal prezzo. Se trovi un'occasione veramente economica può aver senso, anche se non credo migliorerai sensibilmente il suono vs il Mooer.
Un caro saluto!
@@LeoGibsonGtr grazie mille !
Prego!
Thanks for the review 👍
You are welcome!!! Thank you for your message!
Sono d'accordo con le tue conclusioni, ed aggiungo che grazie al midi, ti porti la mooer e una piccola pedaliera midi (tipo la Rolls a 8 pulsanti) in uno zaino e vai in moto a suonare o in studio. E poi c'è la profilazione. La line 6 è un "casciabbanco". Non c'è paragone. Belle recensioni, continua così, un abbraccio
Grazie, apprezzatissimo!!!
Leo, I want to record guitars and vocals, not at the same time necesarilly, could I use the modellers as an interface for both or just for guitars, or I need a mixer or an interface to do that? I really appreciate your help. Thanks.
Hi, I don't think you can record condenser vocal mics with these unit, because for instance they don't provide phantom power. A solution can be an using the configuration explained in this video: ua-cam.com/video/naTeXd5boA4/v-deo.html
Thank you for your question!
Hey Leo, is Nux mg 30 any comparsion to Pod go?Or are they in different leagues? Cheers!
Hi, in terms of sounds I think that there are not drastic differences even if I have not done a direct comparison...that I should do by the way..... The differences are mostly related to the features...more footswitches in the POD GO, some effects in parallel for the NUX, etc.
Thank you for your question!
Hi when recorded in with Pod Go' s USB audio interface ( I hear it can do 24/96) , does the stereo reverbs/delays get recorded in two tracks L and R or one single track ?
Hi, two separate tracks or one stereo track, according to how you set up your DAW.
Thank you for your question.
Sometimes less is more.. simple interface and very good sounds for me the pod go is the winner.. I dont wanna just keep tweaking for hours id rather play
Hi, thank you for sharing your opinion with us!
I had the Helix LT - sounded very good, but I found all the programming tiresome. Sold it, waiting for the new POD Go to arrive in a few days.
Hello Leo I'm on a tight budget which one would you prefer Line 6 pod go, Ampero or Nux 300?? please help
Hi, well, the cheaper is the NUX 300 which is less than half the price of the other two. As regards the Ampero or the POD GO, it depends also if you need to use it live and you need more footswitches. In that case the Pod go could be a better option.
Thank you for your question!
Leo, please see if you can help me with a doubt... On the ge 250, if I link it with my real amp via a 4 cables method on the loop effects, would it be possible to change the amp channels via the mooer switches? I mean, could I control some of my amp features via the mooer, like it is possible to do on a boss GT1000 for exemple?
Hi, unfortunately I don't think it is possible...no such output is available in the GE 250. I think it is not possible also with the POD GO. If I'm wrong, please someone correct me. Thank you for your message!
Great, great demo.
What about the effects quality and tweakability? I once tested the GE200, and the effects were really poor with only few parameters to tweak.
And what about "handling"? How easy is it to create a patch without the editing software? How manageable is it in a live situation (access to the sounds you need, minor tweaks while playing)?
Thank you, your appreciation and feedback is really important for me!
Well, it's a matter of taste, I would be happy with both. The row of bottom below the screen of the GE 250 is pretty handy,
Thank you for your message!
i think the drum machine is also important. as you can jam and practice with it. moreover, i thought ge250 allows you to change the power amp? something you cant do with the pod go.
Hi, in the CAB section of the Mooer you can change the valve type, changing in this way the "character" of the power amp. Thank you for your question!
Which is more user friendly or suited for someone who has little knowledge on the digital modellers. Your guidance would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance.
Hi Roger, I think you are gonna have no problem with both of them. Especially the computer app of both the unit is pretty easy to be used. If you want to use just the physical unit, maybe the row of buttons below the screen provided by the GE 250 allows for easier operations...but it is a nuance...I would say.
Thank you for your message!
Leo Gibson, thank you so much for your great informations. I will go for line 6 pod go. Thank you so much. All the best to you. 🙏👍😊
You are welcome and I'm happy to have been of some help!
Hi Leo - thanks for your superb presentations - I am looking for a multi effects modeller for playing a wide range of creative, avante-garde and ambient type music - I'd really appreciate it if you would let me know your recommendations?
Hi, thank you very much!!! For ambient music I guess you are gonna use specific and creative effects chains, so I would suggest the Helix, the GT 1000 or the Fractal FM3, which have nice effects and let you built very complex and creative effects chains
Thank you for your message!
@@LeoGibsonGtr Thank you Leo - However those options are a little out of my financial range... How good is the Pod Go for doing experimental ambient stuff?
Hi, it's good, but the effect chain has to be kept simple...so I don't know if it's ok for your needs. Another unit that allows complex effect chain is the GT 1000 core.
Thank you!
@@LeoGibsonGtr thanks 👍
You are welcome!
What about the user experience? How easy is it to work with both? I hate a confusing user interface. (And thank you for this video :) )
Hi Alexander, they are both pretty easy to use...I personally love the row of buttons below the screen of the Mooer that gives you and easy and fast access to all effects and amps. Thank you for your message!
Great review!!
Thank you so much, I'm happy that you like the video!!!
Awesome comparison! Possible to share the transcription of the run that starts at 2:02? Cheers!
Hi, thank you! I'm thinking about a video about that solo. Thank you for your message and your question!
I must need to get my earing checked...it sounds like the ge250 has a very pronounced high mid thing going on. The Pod go seemed to me a bit oversaturated.
