    Interesting. As a player who prefers and uses clean sounds without overdrive/distortion, it's usefulness for me was minimal - but the tips about how to set up and change settings was very handy.

    I bought the same one last year to replace and retire my Vox Tonelab ST that I used for over a decade to record and jam. I think these little Zoom pedals are an awesome bargain for what they cost. In a mix or live, you could never tell. The amp simulation and effects are pretty high quality and of course, as with any pedal, at any price, you must use the users manual to be able to get the most out of it. Great review!

    The most recent software update allows you to place the looper before or after effects. That way you could record a loop and “reamp” it on different patches, or you could have the loop stay on a setting and then pick a different patch to solo over it

    This thing is a swiss army knife, use it on everything, take time to explore, and make your own patches, most of the existing ones are too wet with effects, love the znr noise reduction, use it to record direct through my interface, you can even use it on your mixers effects loop to process vocals, in case someone didnt think of that.

      Yes, always check the cab / mic settings, depending on your intended use (playing through amp, or direct to desk). A lot of the Zoom G1 Four's presets don't have any cabs or mics engaged. So always tweak the settings and add a cab/mic if required. Just experiment.

      @PetesGuitarUniverse  7 місяців тому +1

      Save the 2 patches you wish to play with, both your perfect distortion tone, and your best chorus chime, then save them next to one another. You can do this 4 times and then toggle up and down either way and still be sure to engage your 2 favourite setting no matter which way you tap the footswitches to change patch. You can control the distortion with your guitar volume pot, so you can control your OD tone and Dist tone right from your guitar. And leave your clean tone totally clean with no amp sims on. The best clean guitar was recorded by people like Michael Jackson and Prince. Both of which played directly into the desk only running through a high quality preamp to add that transformer-in-the-circuit weight in the signal. Perfect cleans with just modulation is the way to go.

    I have one of these pedals, and honestly, I realy like it. The best part about it is that you can create your own patches, so you can have a load of different sounds in a row for a playlist at a gig. The only critisism is that is is a little tricky to use on the fly, live. because the buttons are so flat, its a bit hard to push the looper or the number buttons by foot. For the price of the unit though, exeptional purchase.
    I'm not sure if they have made it so you can add on an expression pedal, or if you have to buy the G1 XFour instead?

    Would you comment on the sound quality when using headphones plugged into the output jack? I want to use this pedal as a headphone amp that has decent EFX, but I'm not trusting enough to buy it. In my experience sharing the line-out & headphone-out in the same jack is a terrible idea; it's really just a line-out that can't handle the low impedance of the headphones, and so with headphones such shared outputs have very low volume with terrible tone that can't be fixed no matter what I do. Zoom's manual seems to imply that you can use this same jack for both, so I'm curious to know whether it is really mysteriously capable of this (and even more curious to know how it's possible that it could work). Thanks!

    IS THERE any useful setting to simulate a bass cab/ tone ?

    • @PetesGuitarUniverse
      @PetesGuitarUniverse  2 роки тому +1

      Yes, in fact I use it for recording DI bass. Make your own patches and there are lots of great FX. Really useful.

    Are you mixing in the acoustic sounds of your strumming with the recording? Maybe I don't understand.

    Unfortunately not very much in the way of clean sounds, I wanted to hear the different Reverbs, Chorus, and Echo/Delay's, too many overdriven distorted sounds for me.

      I plan to do a real deep dive to explore a bunch more of the settings on this, as there's so much to go into.

      Aw the distortion, the dopey big boy distortion ! Use Boss SD 1 and SD 2 for distortion ! Now what do the reverbs and echoes sound like ?

      Use the ZNR (zoom noise reduction) patch in the last slot. Adjust the parameters so it's silent when not playing, but so that it doesn't choke the decay of a single note sustain too early

    The way you did the review is fine, but the tones sucks. Did you put a cab with the mic on in the signal chain? If you are not playing with a real amp you need to select a cab from the G1 Four!
    Cheers from Portugal 🍺🤘🇵🇹

    • @PetesGuitarUniverse
      @PetesGuitarUniverse  3 роки тому +1

      Thanks for your feedback. As mentioned, the tones are all stock Zoom patches (except the first couple of clean patches). All patches used are recorded direct and have the cabs engaged. But thanks

    How many loops are there?

    • @PetesGuitarUniverse
      @PetesGuitarUniverse  2 роки тому +1

      As many as you like, so long as they're under 30 seconds in length (loop). If you stack lots and lots, the earlier ones will loose clarity slightly, but that's the same on all loopers

    Thank you for the Demo. The Factory presets sounds do not impress me at all. Biggest mistake most of them make.

    • @PetesGuitarUniverse
      @PetesGuitarUniverse  Рік тому

      Totally agree. The presets suck, as with most multi FX. But I can guarantee that the tones within the G1 Four are first class. I have dialled in a bunch of amazing patches of my own and believe they rival anything else I've ever heard. The delays and looper are worth the money alone.
