[@tamirkeren6750]

I always thought NUX modelling punches above it's price point. Good review and excellent production. Marry Christmas Leo.

[@LeoGibsonGtr]

Merry Christmas!!!

[@jcoulter43]

Great demo song as usual! Would love to hear your original lead vocal with maybe the AI female singer, singing harmony or BGV's. Merry Christmas to you and your family and God bless! 👍🎸🎄

Thank you for the review Leo. I googled the MKII but it seems that nobody is carrying it yet. I have the 300.

[@LeoGibsonGtr]

You are welcome!!! It should have been just released...

Hola Leo, excelente demo, desde que NUX introdujo sus multiefectos, ha marcado una gran diferencia en calidad-precio, realmente podrías dar un gran concierto con este pedal tan asequible.

[@LeoGibsonGtr]

Thank you so much, I'm really happy that you appreciate the video! Thank you also for sharing your findings!

Hi Leo, hope you’re doing well. With the Ampero Stomp now have the ability to load the capture, are you going to do some capture? I don’t mind to buy it because I know your wuality. Thanks!

[@LeoGibsonGtr]

Hi. I'm fine thanks, and I hope you are fine too! Yes, I'm doing some captures....I hope to be able to upload them in the coming weeks. Thanks!!!

[@BudiPrasetyoHarsono]

@@LeoGibsonGtr hi Leo, thanks for your response. Can you spill what will be included?

[@john_enx]

Thanks for the vid, plz also compare it to the mg400 (edit: nevermind, it seems last firmware update was July 2023 so they might drop it), happy Christmas!

[@LeoGibsonGtr]

You are welcome and thank you for your suggestion!

[@Spicywings-jo7bf]

Hi leo, how about the latency test MG 300 mk II? Thank you

[@LeoGibsonGtr]

Hi, I have not measured yet, but typically for NUX products it is around 1.2 ms Thanks!

[@wildgoattt]

hey it seems really good, I'm just wondering why can't I find any official announcements of this?

[@LeoGibsonGtr]

Hi, I don't know why...they told that the released date was December the 24th... Thanks

[@warren4838]

Can you set it on stomp mode?

[@ultimatescalerc7151]

Id like to see this compared to the MG-30. It almost looks like its more capable than the MG-30 but more compact. I do not use the amp sims or IR loading in the NuX. I run my Tone X One direct in and I like the way it sounds better than in the loop for some reason. One issue is I cant seem to control the input gain of my guitar direct into the MG-30 when using the Tone X in the FX loop. So direct in I can control that via the Tone X volume and gain. What Im after is; if the FX sound as good as the MG-30 and how a plug in sounds fed into both units. Are there any differences or if we are lucky the new unit might sound even better :) For this low cost unit, with its very good FX and other features, this will be an answere for Tone X One users. This will be a budget Fractal killer when combined. Is the MIDI programing the same as the MG-30? Can you controll other things using it? I was trying to find a tutorial but cant find anything. Might be a good vide for you if you can work with NuX. This little unit could a be a huge thing for Tone X One users that need FX, vol pedal, IR loader, recording interface, drum machine, looper, tuner and then the above average FX the NuX units offer. The MG-30 I have to say after trying to hate it and buying other modellers only to return to it: it has to be the most underated modeller on market today sub $500. Ill take that MG-30 over the Flex Prime anyday. I returned mine it didtn cut it, there are some issues with the emulation somewhere. A tone should have clearity no matter how dirty it is. The Prime cant do it with high gain tones, unless you have a lot of time to tweak it. But generally the more you tweak the tone the more its detieriated. What would be cool is if you can switch the tone X presets in preset selection mode. Then in scene mode, you can access three presets on the tone X in set up mode. So it would be cool if you could shuttle them along when using scenes on the NuX.

NUX makes progressions a lot on MG300 MK II. How is the latency?

[@LeoGibsonGtr]

Hi, I have not tested it yet, but typically it is 1.2 ms for NUX products

[@Keanfarzn]

Hello, Im looking for a digital effect. is the nux mg 300 mk2 better than valeton gp 100?

[@LeoGibsonGtr]

Hi, I would say that it is newer....but I should do a direct comparison to answer properly. Thank you!

[@pietrostimoli]

Latency?

[@LeoGibsonGtr]

Typically NUX product have a 1.1 latency....but I didn't test it myself Thanks!

[@komalthecoolk]

what';s the difference between this and MG-101 ? The only difference I can see is that you can move around the FX blocks in MG300 MK2 but not in MG-101

[@LeoGibsonGtr]

Hi, thank you for your question...maybe I will do a video about it...

[@rhatzzZ]

well i think mg 101 doesnt have any scene mode and you cant stack two effects like two overdrives correct me if im wrong

[@zThisPlay]

0:50 wtf lol

[@john_enx]

Freshly baked, not even in the nux website.

[@LeoGibsonGtr]

Yes, it is brand new! Thanks!

[@Dr_Bounty_guitar]

Text says 300, thumbnail 400

[@AlanArteche]

That's a spoiler, MG 400 MK II is also releasing any time soon

[@BCNoel]

nux mg400 mini 😅

Oramai c'è la moda di 2 switch che di comodità non ha nulla.... ah come rimpiango la mia Rp1000

[@LeoGibsonGtr]

Grazie per aver condiviso il tuo pensiero

[@md4645]

@@LeoGibsonGtr Given the channel's footprint, commentary in English. There are now guitar effects coming out almost daily, but in my opinion the biggest flaw in these tools is the usability on stage with a professional switching system. In my view, a pedalboard would be complete if the switches were organised in this way: 1) SCENE UP/DOWN (2 switches total) 2) Activation stompboxes (6 total) a) Compressor b) Distortion c) Chorus/modulation d) Echoes e) Reverb So what do I gain if I buy an old Line6 M13 and add a Tonex? Just to make it ‘dirty’ use a YOYO California + Line6 M13 ? I certainly don't have problems with ‘using too much DSP power or memory’, which I have faced with pedalboards like the line6's Hd500X...or the newly released Zoom G3. I can't understand the innovation of these pedalboards that come to nothing, bearing in mind that I may have been one of the first on YT to use digital pedalboards and find ‘credible’ sounds even having a 12 to 15 analogue pedalboard.

[@ultimatescalerc7151]

@@md4645 You can do a lot with the three scenes. You can switch multiple blocks on and off at once and you can change the blocks per scene. This unit is quite functional even better than the MG-30 that has three switches. This can do more with just two. If this $160 dollar unit can achieve what the MG-30 can as far as audio quality out. I think it will be a big product once people figure out you can add good quality FX plus all its features to a Tone X One for under $200 bucks. When it comes to run of the mill FX; NuX punches way above the others in this Sub $500 range price point. This thing with a Tone X One will be nothing to scoff at. It might not have all the synth FX like the high end units, but who uses that stuff anyways? For most this will be an awesome set up and will end all the tone chasing. Heck for that kind of money you can buy four of them with four Tone X Ones and still be less cost than a Fractal FM3 and still sound just as good. If NuX is smart they will revise the MIDI menu in the editor; so that we can change the MIDI commands to control other plug ins.

@@ultimatescalerc7151 Maybe you don't realise what it takes to play live music ... In the little room at home everything works, but this NUX is castrated at the start.

[@ultimatescalerc7151]

@@md4645 Have you ever used scenes? its litterally one switch. This has three scenes and when you combine it with a Tone X One it also has three scenes. With that tiny set up, you have way more functionality than what you are proposing.
