Mooer GE300 | Tone Capture!

[@chrissladdin4187]

it's great to see an honest review. I really appreciate this, because yeah, all gear videos these days they get sent the product and aren't allowed to give their honest opinions without breaking relationships with the company. Which is obviously fair, but guys like you are what the guitar community needs. What also annoys me a bit about most KZbinrs, is that they will do one video on the gear, then never talk about it again. There's overwhelming amount of plugins and modelers these days. I wish these big channels would do an ultimate shootout video of every modeler they got sent, I mean they're gathering dust on their shelves anyway.

[@BigMetalDaddy1301]

Okey the tone capture feature is the huge point that makes me want one. No need for the kemper. Fuck yes. Nice video! Also keep your honesty and i agree with the advertisement inside my ones loved KZbin channels.

[@seventhplace]

One of the better reviews I've seen for the GE300

[@berndgroters2745]

Thanks for your honest words! Totally agree! I‘ve purchased this device a couple of days ago. The GE300 sounds so much better with good custom-IRs, you‘re right! Havn‘t tried the tone capture yet, but I will capture my Mesa Boogie Mark IV/A soon... Keep up the good work, dude!

[@TheK20sedan]

Well said sir! I always enjoy your videos and appreciate your honesty

[@vashi1]

I was really surprised! The captured tone sounded sooo much better than stock/built in fireball. Very very close to the original amp.

[@chapperbone]

Well done sir. First video I've watched of yours and I subscribed.

[@WolfGuitarsandGear]

That nailed the tone. That’s super cool.

[@droptmusic3572]

If you're more into the tone capturing feature you should definetly check out the Mooer Preamp Live - it is way cheaper and the tone capture is very accurate as well! ;)

Tone capture sounds great, personally I still think helix takes the cake. But for the applications you suggested it sounds great!

[@zaporoshti3392]

helix is not that good with sounds. boss gt1000 is much better around helix lt price range. helix is just easier to use and tweak and that's all.

[@heut4384]

Well, I just bought Helix a few months ago. I was so disappointed on the sound quality. I've played it all week and I know Helix does NOT sound what everyone says. I returned it back to Sweetwater. Now, I will never ever buy anything from Line 6. Period.

[@metalceesie219]

sounds great,could you share the tone capture please..

[@Bcwilderness]

the tone capture is superb, yes it lacks a tiny part of the solid tightness and focus the tube power amp kicks into the sound, but all the high mids are there and in a mix dosent shit up the bass players day so superb alternative for everyone, lightyears on from the valvetronix i used twenty years back, good times, good vid bud

@Soulhenge, would you buy it after 2 years since this review for 450EUR new? BTW great reviews, I love it! Thanks, great job, niiiice playing skills and really honest opinions. I do appreciate :)

[@usta028]

500 seemed also okay to me, but considering how good the tone capture is, I would say the price is right. Get this for the tone capture and effects.

[@clintn6677]

Man thank you for your stance on sponsored videos. I pay youtube not to have any commercials now all the channels that I've been watching are doing commercials themselves mid video. I am dropping every channel that does that.

[@pedrosilvaproductions]

Tbh I don't mind, y'know they make so little compared to what they used to, one's gotta support themslves how they can. So I don't mind them putting it mid video. Just skip it. Simple

[@portainfericz]

Great review ! Could you compare tone capture and kemper profiling of real amp? I'd like to buy a GE300LT as a backup of my Kemper... I need to know, if GE300 capture the sound as good as KPA.. Many thanks.

[@scentia_est]

Did you buy it?

[@damianacuna5413]

great video man!! 100% honest!!! i love watch your honest videos!!

[@stevegardiner8473]

That's a cool feature. The captured tone seems just a little thinner than the real amp but, pretty close.

[@MetalGuitarGuy]

Good video. thank you for your honesty.

[@jazzylei143]

I am quite tempted to get this thing over the helix because of the tone capture feature. I hope the helix will make this kind of technology someday. I love the effects of the helix..

[@Brutalcihild]

Make a video about ge 200 vs ge 300 tone conparison! Greetings

[@stevegardiner8473]

Great video, thanks. I get the LED's are a problem, easily fixed I'm sure. Biggest downside for me is latency between preset changes. Other platforms have eliminated this by using snapshots or scenes. Mooer needs to do the same. Does anyone know if you can import tone captures from other sources, like you can import 3rd party profiles on Kemper?

[@BloodlineMetalfromGermany]

Hey man any news about that gap/latency between presets? I really want to buy the ge300.

[@mtabet02]

Mooer ge250 is way cheaper, smaller, pretty much does the same things. Less buttons but it's buttons are multi function. It has the tone capture, expression pedal merge, and trails.

[@shoseinen]

Hey Soulhenge, i've seen the review of the ge300 and tone capture... the price is a problem, and the pause between switchs being pressed too. So, i was thinking, did you tried the Mooer Preamp live? and the mooer radar? Those are simplier solutions.

[@BloodlineMetalfromGermany]

Hey man any news about that gap between switching Presets? I really want to buy the ge300.

[@tabishkhan1154]

Did they fixed this light thing??????

[@TheSason666]

TONE CAPTURE 95 %

[@Sleeep1]

Let's summarize: tone capture, amp sim, IR and lot of effects, synth and too expensive? I do not think so. Mooer Preamp costs close to 400 €. When we subtract the cost of Mooer Preamp, the cost is much closer to Mooer ge 200. The price seems good, especially since it offers something different than the competition, so it's difficult to compare it to Line6. Of course, I would like the equipment to be cheaper, but if we approach it as I described earlier, it makes sense.

[@OllieNCS]

Share tone capture?

[@riffsage]

their website has more amp profiles than you can shake 2 sticks at.

[@VulturaMusicProductionStudio]

great review!

[@BloodlineMetalfromGermany]

@Soulhenge: Thanks for your demo man! Are there any news about that gap between switching Presets? I really want to buy the ge300 😉

[@knowitall1694]

Good review but HOW did the sustain, dynamics, articulation etc compare to the real amp?

[@Rouwiinator]

I own an ge 200 and can relate a little using IRs changes everything with that unit. I'm just a bit curious as to why you wouldn't use it for recording. The tone capture sounded great man. If you switched back and forth enough I might have not been able to tell the tone capture from the real amp to be honest.

[@ghostoforion1745]

might have been confirmation bias but some people prefer the organic feel they get from tube amps while a modeller has more of a already in studio type feel

[@CosmogyralOfficial]

Keep your style in these videos. You do an excellent job telling the truth. Most other objective reviewers are more likes politicians. Fanboys of a brand or are just trying to get free $h!t I suppose. Love your style. Great player too!

[@straightlineconnectionslc7790]

What would you use for recording besides a tube amp?

[@ricopaxton]

Done on the point

[@Triumphinchrist1]

Can it capture tones like the GE Labs from Kempler? Or can we find Kempler profiles for this?

[@icon520]

Because I am impressed with this unfairly valued processor Mooer GE300, since it is a super processor and I do it to the best, you have to know how to program this in a professional laboratory, and super friendly ..And it is so good because it has 2 SHARC processors the same as it has fractal

[@algorithm007ify]

Can you share this setting?

[@johnnysguitarcorner5510]

At last, someone who can really appreciate the ENGL amps. I see a lot of negativity about ENGL on the internet, which in my humble opinion is totally biased and non factual. Everytime I plug in to an ENGL I am right at home, the heavy channels are always crushing with great bass response and clarity. My next one is going to be the savage mark 2. Oh and there built in noise gates are awesome as well. Great comparison though. Not a bad device

[@stuh84]

It all depends. I own an Engl Invader 150 and love it, and my previous main amp (going back over a decade here) was an Engl Thunder 50. Both fantastic However I've never got on with the Powerball or Fireball, or the SE. They just aren't my kind of amp. The Savage though, brilliant in my opinion. Essentially it's not just a case of "All Engls are amazing" or "All Engls are terrible", but very much down to personal taste.

The ENGL e650 is by far the best and most versatile amp I've ever used!

after I was looking for rk 5 fly rig (not on stock 2 weeks), by mistake I saw a review on youtube...than I bought Pl 1 fly rig...and it is all what I need: analog, clean, distortion, boost, tunner...small, xlr out, 1/4 out, headphones...

[@Rouwiinator]

I know that with the 4 cable method the ge 300 can only "listen to" or rather analyze the preamp of an amplifier but with the new tube amp expander which has an fx loop basically after the poweramp section of the amp you're using you could probably make the ge 300 analyze the whole amp right?

[@uragonertoo1335]

I have some questions. Can you put different amps and effects in the left and the right stereo fields. ex clean ampw/ chorus on right channel , a little distortion and delay on the left ? Is there a limit to the daisy chain of effects or their order ? I have a Boss synyth and most of the instruments sound the way they are supposed to after some eq tweeks. However the demos I have seen on you tube of this unit have failed to demonstrate that. Ola Englund has one and the flute doesn't sound like a flute, nor the trumpet. He however, isn't changing his playing style and that could be a part of the problem on his video. Your opinion or even a video on the subject , thanks. Is the expression pedal when used as a wah, programmable ? Does it have several types and can you control their range . I use a GT 100 by Boss and a problem was it had too much wah roll over, but I changed it at low to 20 instead of 0 all the way up and 80 instead of 100 all the way down and it allowed for a much more subtle wah that I can also use as a tone control to some degree as well. Thanks.

[@kevinfeatherstone6062]

think you could play live with the GE 300 using something like the Seymour Duncan Powerstage or an Orange Pedal Baby and a 2 x12 cabinet? and how is your guitar build coming along?

No, these are completely different units and not compatible.

Can captured tones be exchanged with other users or downloaded off the net?

[@TheJoecoool]

Yes, but I've noticed unlike Kemper and Axe, people who have Mooer do not like to share. They either sell their captures or keep it for themselves. I still wonder why?

Did you share tone capture? I would like to try it.

[@SteepRZ]

Hi, great video. But I have a doubt. How do you get the Drive or Gain of your amp only pressing the B button (Source)? I was following the same procedure, but I only got the clean sound.

[@MilianMalivukMusic]

Steep Romaní Zamudio You have to make sure your amp is on the right channel. The Mooer will not switch it for you.

Yes, but Fireball 100 has a good built in NS, bit more tone-shaping switches and a switchable master 2 for solo 😉 on the fireball 60 you don't have a channel volume.

Hi. I found you awhile back...The tone capture does sound great I'm old and trying to figure out a way to record and play live with the least amount of equipment. That said, I don't think I would use this. Not because of the tones but partially, but also because of the fact it's too hard to get good tones without trouble. Have you tried the Theta, or the Atomic preamps modelers? Just wondering. Oh, I watched your video on the model 200 and you seemed to like it. What model Ibanez was that?

[@allboutthemojo]

@@MilianMalivukMusic hey got a couple of dumb questions, to do a tone capture you actually need the physical amp or pedal ? Or is there an online community/ database you can download captured Sims from? What is the process of doing a tone capture if someone doesn't have a focus rite or use recording DAW? Does the Moore have software to do all this like it does to tweak sound settings online?

[@witeshade]

It does seem like a good product overall but it just still seems like it's too expensive. The tone capture is cool but what happens if you don't have access to a good amp? Then you're stuck with crappier tones, right? I still feel like Mooer just doesn't have the reputation to charge that kind of money yet. If you are already within reach of Line6 or something else established, why go for second or third best? And what happens if you're on tour with the Mooer and it dies? Line6 or kemper or axefx are not too hard to find, but what about this thing? It could be a big problem.

[@jeansawiska]

Reputation? Wth dude, you serious? My ge 200 sounds waaaaay better than the line 6 stuff...

[@witeshade]

@@jeansawiska Mooer doesn't have a bad reputation, far from it. But unless they're a bit of a gear nerd, it's only just now that the regular guitarist may actually have heard of them. The GE200 is an example of what they are doing right- it's affordable enough to be worth a gamble, and good enough to be an absolute win for someone who buys it. But, the GE300 is in an entirely different ballpark of price, to the point where it's a lot harder to take the gamble on it being worth the money. And while it does look pretty good, I just think it's gonna be a really hard sell for the average guitarist, who has seen line6 developing for a decade, and Mooer who they maybe heard of once or twice.

[@eliaskapravelos7171]

Any way l could tone capture a guitar plugin with this ? 😂

[@MilianMalivukMusic]

Theoretically yes, the GE300 doesn't care where the preamp sound is coming from!!

[@OllieNCS]

Be careful though, the GE300 is fussy with too much high end...

[@kbleskate]

Damn that was so close. I'm seriously interested in get one of these. Do You think there is a noticeable difference between the ge300 and the ge250? Well done buddy! 👌

[@zaporoshti3392]

there are some small differences. ge300 supports stereo fx effects (you can use 4 knobs hall of fame with all inputs and outputs with ge300). FX A block in ge300 also has 5 more drive pedals. overall more effects than ge250. for instance equalizer in ge300 has 10 band equalizer while ge250 has 6 band at most. if it is the sound quality you seek the most, then boss gt1000 is unbeatable. it has a lackluster tetris like screen though which I don't quite like but it sounds really good.

Ive taken a plunge on mooer for the tone capture and the synth, ive dialed in and very slightly had to tweak to get my tones and like you said live/ or in a mix that 5% wont be missed . If your smart you can find discount codes to get your units cheaper like i did. Maybe this pedal preaches to a slightly different crowd.
