Dear Bobcat... very kind opinion... and I understand completely. I like these reviews too, but some out there simply just watch either only playing (which is OK) or sales videos (take your pick). In fact that was the main reason for making this type of review - often reviews are shrouded in benefits to the reviewer or are made simply to sell gear. I try not to be biased and to present the best opinion I can about anything. But the internet and social sites are what they are, I'm often dismayed at what some call reviews showing 1/2M views in just a few weeks and I look at those and I question the whole thing about how those videos get that many views. Some of those type of 'review' are really simply sales videos as I said and seemingly some people like that sort of thing. Oh well. It can be frustrating to say the least. But with guys like yourself at least it's worth the effort... thanks for watching. Stay safe.

Firstly there is no amp in the GE300 of course, so an suitable amp and FRFR speakers should do it. That's rather like my Kemper really. Use the main outs, but it also depends on what's on the chosen amp for connections I guess. You could put the GE300 through almost anything... even your hifi :) input to that and play :)
@tonymckenzieofficial3 жыл бұрын
Correct for the tone. But the simulator in these things does not simulate the amps wattage output - just the tones so to speak... so if you have POWERED speakers they have an amp in there designed to accept that sort of input. You could send the GE output to many different amps of course - with some varying results depending on the amp... but speakers with amps in is a good choice. Thanks...

This has actually been a labor of love in some ways. It has taken literally weeks to create it and although I could be criticized by some for this video, actually I think that going through it in this way does show the unit in a better light than many who ONLY play to sell the unit, and they often never show the reality of things. Try and find a video that tells you that the expression pedal has no switch under it and you have to assign one of the others to shift in the wah (for example). I'm so used to just clicking the wah? But you're right... and the research I did not a single 'review' out there told the story of dual processors right there for all to see - and that equates to more power (as fractal audio once said) to use for effects etc. Ha I did not know the prices went up? I only bought this a few weeks ago. Thanks Ricky for watching... and for what it's worth I think this one sounded pretty good really. Stay safe.

Now listen... not many people have seen my chop sticks :) Clearly more useful when I'm just messing inside a real tube amp, but they work on anything - even noodles :) The tones I have on here were literally pre-sets with very slight adjustment generally in reducing maybe an effect or something. I liked the tones for this pedal but they might or might not work for others. But when it was right then you can just tell it. I could have shown lots of pre-sets and I did record some just a few chords on some of them, but in the end I left them off because that's what all the others do :). I set it up for me and those were the sounds I got with very little messing about. BTW I did not use the software other than to demo in this video... there was not much point as most stuff can be got at right on the unit - which is pretty much a first from all the units I've checked. If you get one... do let me know your thoughts too - I always like to see what other guys think compared to what I found. Thanks and stay safe.

The last 10 years I used a GT-100. Still sounds incredibly good, but still I don't know, where to find some features. Quick editing a sound on stage is impossible. Bought an GE 300 and I am happy with it. Sound good, easy to use, all parameters are on the front, on dark stages you can identify the switches. Great. The software might be simple, but it does its job and the display doesn't show you the amp as a picture and that is good. You decide with your ears, not you eyes. I see only one minus: The lettering on the front panel (light grey on dark grey) is nearly illegible

The GT-100 was/is still used by many. This GE-300 is good value for the money really, but it does have a few awkward things re usability going on. The lettering is abysmal and not really designed with being used in mind I completely agree. Agreed, the tones (and the feel) are what is actually important... thanks for watching.

Mooer GE 300 vs Helix Rack that you owned (assuming with the latest 3.11 firmware updates that have increased oversampling feature that supposed to increasing the audio quality also), regarding the sound quality solely for comparing each unit, which unit do you prefer, more pleasing to your ear? Which amp simulation that you thought to be closer to the real amp? Can you give each unit score based on that (maybe score scaling from 1 to 10 for each unit) Really appreciate sir 🙏🏼

Thanks for the kind words. I already own a Kemper Rack and a Helix rack. While the GE300 is pretty good in it's own right, I do NOT personally buy the Helix for the tones of simulations (for example). I use the Helix as a master rack controller and for effects and use a real tube amp with the 4CM for the tones that I want. The GE300 is a good pedal for it's price and I thought the sounds were very similar to most in this genre. But there are a few funny things going on re the slots available as I showed in the video. For me that was important and I never got used to choosing a wah from an allocated button.. weird. The best unit IM

I will say that I have owned a few Hotone products and while I did not open them up, I will say that they were great in terms of sound quality and reliability

Hi Tony, even though this was a very long video, I was hoping this might prove useful because now that used prices have really come down, I was toying with picking up a GE300 as it has some interesting features that I really like. I liked your presentation style, but in all honesty there was a fair bit of repetition and I think you probably could have covered off everything in half the time. But I realise & appreciate the effort you put into it, so thanks for doing it. From my perspective, and I've been playing for some 50 years now, I am interested in the quality of tone & feel, ease of use and gigging functionality in a compact, light-weight unit. The MFX unit I currently use for gigging is a Vox Tonelab SE (I have the LE too as a backup and use for rehearsals sometimes). Whilst old tech from 2003/4, and without complex features such as snap-shots, tone capture, IR importing, latest modelling algorithms etc, the quality of valve-like tone and feel, and ease of use live, with real dials and no issues re DSP limitations, is still hard to beat - the modelling quality still holds up surprisingly well, and these units were well ahead of their time. These original Tonelabs therefore remain the yardstick that I judge MFX units by. However, although built like tanks, these units are big and heavy, especially the TLSE, but I gig with the latter over the LE because it has dual expression pedals, A/B switching in the same patch, and a separate knob for cab models. The ability to change an amp, cab,FX or add an FX in 2 seconds via dial shouldn't be underestimated in a live scenario. But size & weight are a big consideration, hence I wasn't interested in the Helix LT; I want to be able to easily carry gear into a gig in one trip with minimum set-up and packing away time so I wanted something modern, light, compact, easy to use, and great sounding for live use. So, last June I picked up a Pod Go to play with via headphones and through a Headrush FRFR108 during lockdown. It sounds superb, is incredibly light & contact, has a huge range of amp,cab, fx models, space for 128 IR's and has a lot of nice features including snapshots, but as with every MFX unit, some limitations too. I love the ability to kick in a global wah in every setting without having to program this in, and the display is very clear. The current inability to name multi-footswitch operations, change colours, and name snap-shots is a nuisance but Line 6 has confirmed it wants to add these so I'm hoping these will be added in the next upgrade. The short, thin PSU isn't gig-worthy but unfortunately that's true of a lot of new MFX units including Mooer, Boss & Zoom. The combination of fixed and user blocks is a mixed blessing and even one extra user-block would really help its versatility even with no extra processing power - but sadly Line 6 confirmed it won't be changing this. As it's always nice to have options, hence my interest in the GE300 to compare 'gigability' for my needs with the TL's & Pod Go. The greater processing power, assignable multi-control switches that you can name and change colour (sorry if i missed it, but did you mention you can choose colours?), solid build, tone capture, allegedly (and until I have one to play with I won't know) easy tweaking from the unit itself, are some of the features that appeal. But there are downsides too. Whilst the GE300 is a handsome looking unit, trying to see the control labels printed in black on a reflective background is a real problem to see, particularly on stage, and is why many users have had to add their own clearer labels. And as far as I seen from the manual (and I was hoping your vid might have been able to clarify here) I don't think it has the ability to set the expression pedal globally in every patch to switch between volume and wah like the Pod Go. And whilst the unit has dual processors, I think it would have been helpful to have put this in perspective because the Sharc processors come in different 'flavours'. This means that when comparing twin chip MFX units unless you know the type of chip and processing power in each, you don't know if you are comparing apples with apples. Unlike Pod Go, as far as I'm aware, it doesn't have 'snapshots' - the value of these is instant switching within a patch without latency delay when switching patches. I was hoping your video might have had more informed technical detail here. I also have some concerns re Mooer customer service in the UK, based on various forum feedback - have you had any personal experience with them?

I thought the two applications idea was not perfect and if they made one out of those two they would improve the product no end... it extended the video review because I wanted to show BOTH of those as each has its merits and the software is really an integral part of the whole pedal.

Hi Tony, i am about to downsize things to avoid have amps and cabs with me on the road, I know this FX modellers are not 100% the same soundvise as a real amp and cab but I think with a good IR installed you can get this type of modellers to sound really really good. Just give the sound tech of the house one cable and you are all set, well maybe an active monitor to hear yourself on stage. How ever. I am thinking about spending maximum about 700 Euro. I would like your opinion about this: Mooer GE300, Line 6 Pod Go, Boss GX-100, Headrush MX5. I would wanna stay away from a used one due to the fact that I want warranty and be able to return it for something else or money back. This is my first FX modellers since the early 2000 so all this new stuff with IR´s and stuff like that is all new for me. But I see that there is some really good IR´s to get really good sound. Thanks very much.. :D
@tonymckenzieofficial4 ай бұрын
Well you have a massive choice IMO. Of the ones you mention, the MX-5 seemed to have a small screen (bearing in mind there is no software), the GX-100 I liked at the time although again depends what you want. Mooer have a whole range of gear, but the ones I have seen are good value, but sometimes have quirks that might or might not get resolved and the Line6 Pod Go again offered good value. If effects are not too critical the Kemper Player should be considered because above all the tones can be very good (I recently reviewed that here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oXjbdZdjfMmXpJYsi=hRjGPw6l42mqbMR1 and it was interesting. Bear in mind there are 22000 captured amps with the Kemper player to download and one of the best for that out there. It can't capture, but to be honest there is no need for that. Effects wise its sort of basic, but you can add those to it. Consider them ALL - and absolutely try each one to see if it fits with your style - which I recommend otherwise its easy to buy the wrong thing. Hope it helps and thanks for watching.

You're 'hanging' with the wrong crowds :) and I agree - however when you're reviewing close up to create as decent a review as I can, the tiny manual on the cell phone certainly does not work. The printed manual for that purpose is perfect and I do that for most in depth reviews. There is so much detail that otherwise you really don't always see if its not printed. Good point, but now you know why I say it :) an thanks for watching.

The "silly plastic parts" (transparent buttonheads) are actually very smart and useful. SInce I use them, I hit the buttons much more easily, especially on a dark stage. These transparent mushroom shaped buttonheads increase the buttonsurface and the light underneath them, since they reflect these lights too, making it much better visible in a live situation. And when programming the Ge300 at home on a desk, it`s more comfortable to press the buttons with the fingers with these plastic heads, than pressing the bare metal knobs, which really annoyed me at the beginning, when I had my Ge300 brandnew. My Ge300 came without these transparent buttonheads, so I had to buy them separately and I`m happy with it, I don`t wanna miss them! Just my two cents. 🙄😄

I understand that of course... but the Helix was released later and that too has the same SHARC processors... but at a higher price. I don't believe that the SHARC processors at the claimed $500 each ever were that price - it was purely bull***t from others who really had no answers at the time. That's the internet for you :) The FX III has a $68 processor in there! :) oh well... stay safe.

Hi Tony, I just purchased the GE 300 from GAK, the first thing I did was to update the firmware as recommended. Well it didn’t work I downloaded the app and followed the instructions and I started the download and had a message MCU timeout. I tried a number of times to update and had the same message, I then changed USB cables and tried a different port and still got the same response. So I messaged Mooer support no response and I sent three more emails. So back to GAK and spoke with a representative and explained the situation, they came back to me and requested I send back to them and they will send a replacement. However having trawled the forums, which is a pain it would seem that it could be the Windows Operating System and others have had a similar experience. Namely that I have Windows 11 on my laptop, so sorry about the long message have you come across this issue? I have asked GAK to update the replacement before they send me a new GE 300 to me.

No I did not have that problem... but listen to this. I have had massive trouble with a Sony camera update. By the way, when you update it, you can't un-update it on the camera. Silly me updates to V2 (FS3 camera) and it was horrible with many faults. Well over 1 1/2 weeks for support that did not answer it until yesterday... then ah we now have 2.1 version install that. I downloaded it and went to install - I followed the procedures and have had practice so to speak. It would not install. In my case, it turned out to be the CABLE - even after going through two... the third cable (a tatty old thing) worked, the shiny nice-looking ones were rubbish. Check those cables, and I doubt its Win 11 I have been on that for ages. Come back and post what happens - it will help many. So that was my Sony story, and I have seen cable issues historically on music gear... Thanks for watching and I hope it helps in some way.

Hi Tony, Recently found out about your channel through the Headrush MX5 video that you did. I was so surprised to see that you take a very unique approach (literally inside out) for every piece of gear you review. I’m in the market for a multi fx/modeller and I’m having a really hard time deciding what to purchase. I am a firm believer of keeping things simple and not lug around heavy hardware (amps/cabs) and I’m all in for 100% mobility (I have a hernia and can’t get it fixed at the moment). I see that you rated the Mooer GE300 a 9/10 and the Headrush MX5 a 6/10 and I understand the conclusive scores are subjective, but it’s unexpected for me to see that you scored the GE300 so high. Given the fact that it does not show parallel processing, does not have a global EQ (i might be wrong) and sounds slightly thinner to me. That being said, option paralysis is also a thing and if you’re assured about quality control you just need to use what you have to its full potential. I think I’ll be going ahead with the GE300 on the basis of your review. Thanks for all your hard work!
@tonymckenzieofficial3 жыл бұрын
My advice is this. Each device I look at is sort of 'similar' in the areas of simulations and IR's. The effects are generally all good on all the devices. But there is one thing that actually does stick out... and it relates to compromise and/or complexity. Firstly, compromise: You would find, if you take each one and try and use it, that each device has this or that (let's not be too specific) that has been generally cut or changed from the top end units out there. So for example the GT-1000 is 'similar' to the GT-1000CORE, but there ARE operational differences that can affect the work flow. Some guys will tell you 'what work flow' but when you own one then the work begins. In the case of the CORE it has near enough the same number of slots for effects/simulation etc. that the GT-1000 does. But there are cut backs in the hardware that are in plain sight and maybe some of the connectors are different (they are) etc. In the case of the GE300 I could not get on with the wah not actually having a switch under it and you have to program it for a wah. Might not bother many, I thought it was horrible. I won't single out any specific brand really but what I would say is firstly consider VERY carefully the size of the unit and the connectivity. Then the free slots and the power of the device. The above CORE was pretty exceptional for the 599 it cost. But that's not always the case. Think of the GE300 as having TWO separate software apps which to be honest IMO should have been just one. It's a pain. Once you have all that out the way then we turn to the second problem from what I have seen - complexity. Complexity will rear its ugly head when you buy a device that is probably offering more than you actually need. From what I have seen the so called 'professional' devices (no names) are generally offering a huge plethora of things you can set and it is likely that MOST guitarists would not understand the term, let alone use the feature. And as the complexity increases so does the then massive learning curve unless you just use the presets... you know, the presets from ANY maker that users always tell me are rubbish! Those presets. It all becomes hard work. My advise is get the hardware right first for your exact needs. Listen to the tones off the device with the setup that you have or that you want it for. Look on forums for problems being reported. (Don't waste your time asking users if they think 'brand X' is the best (that they own) because not one of them will tell you their gear is anything but the best... and that's a fact.) ALWAYS consider what is used for the making of the device including the components if you can find out and where it's made sometimes (but not always) has a bearing on longevity. Try and determine that where the device is made and if the production is managed by the actual name on the product... for example Apple manages the Foxconn production? Western management regarding the quality aspect and QA is I think sometimes better than some unknown company from some far off land production because often they have no one to really answer to... (that is just an opinion). And you know what, even then you might get the wrong device. Onl;y YOU can tell whether the device you buy is right for you. I try very hard to create a video that tries hard to show what others do not - like the warranty length and many other aspects that are actually important but no one from the sales videos will ever mention. Longevity relates to hardware, warranty and importantly how long that operating system will be supported for the specific device. I have Apple gear today that CANNOT be upgraded to later OS versions. Hope it helps a little and I can assume most likely that I have mentioned some aspects that are obvious but most people never think about them. Thanks.

@@tonymckenzieofficial unless I'm misunderstanding you, Tony, the GE300 does have a toe switch under the pedal to switch to and from wah etc. The amount of pressure can be set by the user (if I remember rightly, it came set requiring rather a lot of pressure to activate...but if you go into the settings you can adjust it to taste.) I agree that it's a pain if there is not always a wah available in a patch...I think it should have one in every single preset. (I believe the Pod Go that has that?) It's easy to go through each patch to add a wah and then save it, I suppose, but it would have been better if it had come like that. Great review...and a relief to see/hear that you thought it was so well made and the 9/10 rating. I am slightly nervous that if it develops a fault it will probably have to go in the bin, because Mooer's customer service is pretty poor and I don't think they'd entertain it being sent back for repair. I think it's a great unit, though...and not just for the money. Cheers, Tony!

Thanks for the info... maybe I missed that somewhere :) I never got it to operate as I expected it though and seemingly you have to program the switch you mention or another... Ha I honestly went around in circles on it. But I'm not perfect for sure... :) On every single pedal of this genre (i.e. lots of them) I see the things inside even like switch rails etc. and I do comment that 'maybe' we could buy another replacement if it failed... but you know what, I don't REALLY think that. I could see me or some repair guy either fixing a board in a not too easy way or even getting on made via China as the cost is less for that now... but then there's the drawings etc. hassle. Yes I like the Mooer GE300 but I also thought that the program(s) they have should have been integrated in to one rather than two sort of alien to each other apps. That was a bit weird, when I see everyone else having in general one app. MX5 has no apps and that can be fun. But yes I liked the Mooer unit as well. In fact great for the money... and thanks for watching... appreciated.

I'm taking one more stab a a good distortion pedal, the Empress Heavy, I need only two OD and distortion but class, not the cheap stuff, if that doesn't work I'll go with the Ge 300 or Ge 250 . The Empress is 300 bucks, I had the Friedman BE OD, and the mxr 5150 , they're in the same price range and awesome, but neither can give both great OD and Great Distortion, so thats why I'm going to try the Empress, one time, and hope, it can give both. I don't believe a processor in the GE 300 price range will ever give the majestic OD and Distortion that comes with a high dollar pedal, but then the processors offer so much more in terms of cool effects. shrugs.... the quest continues.

Since ive been coming from fractal world especially an old ax8, im impressed with the i/o of this ge 300. Might be the best for its price range. And this more compact than the ax8. How is the built of the ge300 is sturdy enough? Btw have u ever reviewing a strymon bigsky? Is that thing can be repaired?? Mine had a glicthing screen.

@tonymckenzieofficial3 жыл бұрын
The build I think is pretty good. Take another look inside and compare directly with the POD GO that I also recently looked at. You will see very similar components but this is dual processor... the POD Go is not. I think this hardware is more nicely finished too than the POD GO. Compare the POD Go finish - you see unfinished embedded screws in the top of the POD... finish on this GE300 is excellent. There are some 'funnies' though. For example from what I see the wah needs a control pedal assigning for the on and off of the wah. I'm used to pressing the exp1 pedal and hey presto... but I never made it work that way - seems the exp1 is exp1 only. I think the software is nicer for the POD GO... BUT - you can do most stuff from the hardware on the GE300... a bonus for sure especially on a gig. I liked the sounds of the GE300 too. The POD GO is not junk tones though although I found the GE300 tones pretty instant and the POD GO less instant although they are there. I did 'buy' a pre-set or two for the POD GO but they never sound like the guy that created them :). I never had to buy any tones pre-sets for the GE300 but did download a few free IR's which proved unnecessary for my sounds you hear on this video. Hope this helps. I have NOT reviewed a Strymon Big Sky... In fact I think I only ever reviewed ONE Strymon item - too expensive to me. I remember the days when they were some other company name and that gear was nothing special for sure. However, seems many latched on to the Strymon brand (but maybe less so to the previous name) so who am I to criticize! Most gear can be repaired these days - but I always consider if you can buy a sub assembly in all my reviews because changing the board might often be cheaper than the labor involved. In any case... thanks for watching this and stay safe.

@@tonymckenzieofficial "you see unfinished embedded screws in the top of the POD." if you mean the hexaganol shapes it's not actually 'unfinished' Tony it's the manufacturing technique that actually adds strength. Interestingly, there are other units out there that are similarly made with the 'hexagons' including the Vox Tonelab SE/LE's - and they are built like tanks. And whilst the GE300 looks great with its brushed satin finish, as you, me and many others have agreed and commented on, the graphics are virtually unreadable - the Pod Go's white lettering on matt black is eminently more practical and so much easier to read. It would be nice though if all these units had fibre-optics to light up all the graphics so you can read easily on a dimly lit stage. And the Pod Go's ability to switch globally on any patch between wah/volume without programming is a godsend for live playing, as are the snapshots for seamless lag free changing. For all its dual-chip processing power I simply don't understand why Mooer didn't add global volume/wah and snapshots to its flagship MFX unit - just seems bonkers. Perhaps they'll add these in a future update.
@tonymckenzieofficial3 жыл бұрын
What I meant was easy enough re the inserts... you see them! Like should not really be seen on the top of a unit like that - its less aesthetically pleasing and just IMO made the POD Go look 'cheaper' made than say other similar gear. On the rest of the GE300 I agreed... the text colour was horrible and I said so - along with the brushed surface top. The pedal is not perfect, but for the money it cost, it was without doubt a very exceptional deal. I have owned Helix since it's release personally and the Line6 equipment is in general better than the Mooer equipment (just a personal opinion), but ALL of the lower end devices are cut back in one way or another it seems. Something less cut back was the Roland GT-1000CORE but again, it costs more and offers in other respects less than other actual hardware... but it does have 24 blocks that can work at once and with basically a free reign of what they are (well almost). Snapshots on the Helix (mine is a rack version) are a great idea of course. I do think that now the market is getting very full of so many different pedals and brands that for anyone looking at the less than £600 ($750) sector of the market that it would certainly be a very confusing time for them especially if they are new to simulators. Generally guys will buy this stuff from sales reviews (I'll call them that) that show lots that the buyer might never actually achieve and so the buyer then 'falls back' to how the units look and make choices that way... which is a pity really. Anyway thanks for the info.... all useful stuff.

Hi Tony, thanks for this interesting review. I just have one comment to make. I believe that when we pay Boss, Line6, Fractal Audio products we don't directly pay for the processors and hardware costs plus profit but rather, to some extent, for the modelling research being done and the years of experience with such techniques as well their proprietary research on the field. As a person working in (quantum) system identification I can confirm this can be something extremely time consuming and the salary of a researcher/developer in the USA/EU/Japan is definitely an order of magnitude higher than the corresponding salary in China. Would you agree?
@tonymckenzieofficial3 жыл бұрын
That's an interesting point of course. But one I think is flawed a little. Let me explain. Hardware on each and every unit carries a cost. So does the shipping from the Far East to destination. Every single one. In the case of the firmware/OS development that goes on and on and on, my logic says there is an 'element' of the OS cost placed on each unit to arrive at a true cost for the device. Device = device + ship + dev cost = hardware cost. The 'on going' firmware/OS costs are not quite as some might suggest. The OS surely does change, but the cost is almost (if you will) on a 'rolling road' or conveyor belt... that never stops, but the originating 'old' devices can often (but not always) benefit from simply because the maker bothers to support the 'old' devices until they have 'had enough'. And a really good example of this is Apple. That's a company that will support 'old' devices until they have decided it's time for YOU to buy a new one or get left behind until the device no longer operates other software or has compatibility issues, or the hardware fails. IMO that is clearly the only way you can attribute a return on investment. Of course they all build in obsolescence. Look at 'Windows 11' to OS that was never being released... a classic way to make even three year old devices not upgradeable and thus making the owners 'feel' left behind. Factually they ARE left behind because once the 11 gets going the unsupported OS will become rapidly riddled with many issues not the least that other software will cease to run on 10. While in the case of the PC it's clearly not entirely the same, but hopefully you will understand my thinking on that. Trust me, not a single one of those companies does ANYTHING for free, never has, and they never will. I know of no technology business that creates a business plan that includes hardware where the costed time for OS and the like is 'given away' as some people might think. I have been involved in some of the manufacturing process of equipment and there is no doubt that the firmware was never given away, no matter how much someone might 'bleat' about or even brag about it as a company. It's an interesting way of thinking that those companies are somehow 'friends' with the client to the extent that it 'costs the company money' and they simply throw that to the wind. Ha personally I think that's fantasy land and having managed a company since 1981 I guess I have some idea about it all. But an interesting post :) and thanks for waking me up :).

Well however you found it - thanks for watching. I have tried hard to show what I found with every unit I have looked at - and I DID buy each one so there's no half truth reviews here. I have never used the GE200 myself though. On the GE300 the switching for the wah was a bit weird... I'm used to real wah pedals in one unit and I never really did solve the wah switch. Other than that it all seemed pretty good especially for the cost. Thanks and watch out for other similar reviews as the gear comes out - but at the moment its all a bit slow with chip problems and shipping woes from generally the far east and not so far east - like Mesa in the USA. Oh well...

I have always tried to show how a piece of gear is for me - and I buy near enough all of it just like anyone else - I think that is extremely important because all those that get 'free gear' or similar something for nothing then review really are compromising their own reviews by doing that. Me? if its great I say so and if its bad - I say so... many don't like that I show exactly what I got and that I review ina particular way, but there is no point of any review that simply hides the truth of their experience. I'm not perfect, and over the years I can mention something that turns out slightly different of course, we can all make mistakes, but in general over 360+ videos I think I did a pretty fair job and hopefully helped many guys decide if something really is like a maker suggests, or is not what they typically say. It's been a very long ride and I have seen so much gear. Of course it also has cost me a small fortune!

My MAIN concern is where would you get this repaired if needed? AFAIK, it's only available via Amazon in the USA (Amzn has a $79, 3yr & $105, 4yr warranty). I agree that having white text on stainless steel is quite dumb! With most everthing else being really good, I don't get how they missed that? At least the display graphically shows where your modules are so you can scroll to them... but that takes much longer. If you could easily see "Delay" on the unit you press the "Delay" button and make changes between songs or during a drawn out note/chord. The PC software isn't as beautiful as the MAC but it gets the job done! I'll be using the PC Software a lot as my unit will be on the floor... as it is during live use (to ensure the switches are correct), not on my desk.

Great comments. In the USA Apple appears to be 'god like' of course. And even in the day job I have Apple was the 'first choice' for apps. For many years I spoke up and mentioned that Apple (at least in my market) was about 10% of the sales of Android platforms and it might have changed a little but I doubt by as much as some might suggest. The general concensus re Android from the various people I know was that the platform was 'forever changing' and unstable and update after update negated some of the gains from Android... I stay generally away from the opinions these days, except to say that many companies that I know stopped ignoring Android and IOS and moved what they do to a browser - then the wars of the apps cease. The cloud and browser await... :) Thanks for the post... and for watching.

Maybe recording through an external audio interface is a better idea? Cheers.

Check the online downloads for this pedal - they looked great to me.

Indeed I am not. Please let me explain... Firstly, I see loads of these types of products, some I keep if they work for me and some I sell later to then be able to buy more gear to review (I buy it all!). In the case of the GE300 there was a reason I sold it. I use a wah a lot in how I play, and not just as a wah but as a sort of drive element too. On the GE300 the pedal did not have the usual control button with toe forward if I remember correctly... you have to assign a pedal to turn on or off the wah. That was very off putting to me and to be honest, it was distracting to me after using wah pedals since 1971. So I sold it. However, I also reviewed the GT-1000CORE around that time and I kept that one, firstly because the operation is different and secondly because you can have up to 24 effects etc. through the audio path. I trust that little explanation helps... it's not really a reflection of the gear, but really just about how I play. Thanks for watching and for the post.

Well I never said its the best since sliced bread :) and there are some funny strange things when using the pedal.

Tony, I have tried every Amp modeller out there and when it comes to playing through an amp they all fail. Wondering about the GE300? Most of these uunits have good effects but sound way to processed and scratchy for amp and drive models. Every you tube clip sounds great but I will assume they are all through powered FRFR. Have you tried this 4 cable through an amp?
@tonymckenzieofficial2 жыл бұрын
Don't be surprised... you're generally right! :) I have tried most of them very close up. Check the reviews of the units I have looked at because my reviews try and show the real tones as most ordinary guys might get initially at the very least. The GE300 is interesting especially for the money, but it (like all of them) does have some funny things that you could come across. The Wah had to be turned on and off with a switch... as just one example. I never solved it and gave up on that. I did NOT try this 4 cable and although I sometimes take some units and do that, generally I don't. But I either simply go in to an amp, or I go direct to desk depending on time. If I go in to an amp then I say so in the video... and then always use a mic to record from that. For the 4 cable method I use on a Helix rack with its controller pedal in to a Marshal JVM410HJS Satch amp and then I don't use the amp sims. To be honest, in the studio we generally use tube amps but have on occasion used these types of effects units... but not really that often. Obviously for reviews I try and create a very simplistic approach as many guys would when initially using the gear... but there can be some good sounding units and of course the 4cm helps considerably with tones if you are going to use the simulated amps. Check those reviews as I have looked at most of them and always played at least something at the end - sometimes good and sometimes less so, but it's not put together in a way that makes the unit specifically sound perfect - as I don't think that many guys get that particularly early on. Here: kzbin.info/aero/PL6E22694F35860D41 you might well have seen them? or not... there are many and the last one I completed was the GX-100 - a pretty interesting pedal, but it all depends what you want to do with it... hope it helps Dave...

Amplifiers and speaker sets that are what they call FRFR basically flat response type of gear will work. If there is coloration on the internal amp or speakers offer similar features well you can get them and they will work. Ha I even used an HH PA amp once for the Kemper amp I have. Sounded fine to me at the time. Today I have a 100w stereo amp that really is FRFR type and to be honest, you need good ears to tell differences - many will tell you they always hear anything which may or may not be true... so if you can try some then I would.
