[@pageluvva]

Amazing review. Many thanks. Cheers from Canada

[@anthonymajeres]

Thanks for this demo and review. Very interesting. Good job.

[@Misterguitar]

Great, thorough demo.

[@sdbracht]

Thanks for the great vid 👍✌️

[@smiley50ish]

Hi thanks for info just had mine today having great fun so far. One question when you created a new preset (test preset) did you overwrite an original default preset is this then lost if saved thanks in advance

[@ronneljoven8990]

hi im new to the donner arena 2000 i have aquestion about how to set effects on each pedal or sound banking

[@HumbleHeartMinistry]

When using the expression pedal, can it be changed from volume to wah with your foot so you can use wah just for a lead part and back to volume pedal for rest of song? Or does it have to be changed internally, and your stuck with either just wah, or volume pedal until you go into menu and re-assign it?❤

[@user-mo9rc4lt5o]

The second riff you played in the beginning sounded like may heaven strike me down by vengeance.

[@dougmann66]

Awesome thanks 👍⭐⭐⭐🌀⭐

[@tboateng7964]

Can you download line 6 helix presets on it?

[@CanadianRockerGuy]

Sounds good, looks cool, think I'll wait awhile, maybe a year or two for a used one at half the price of a new one

[@GuyHarrison-nm1xt]

Can you connect a external distortion pedal threw send&return with s/r. On the controller to bring in &out like the mg30

[@hoosierdaddy2308]

Hello.. I just found you.. I subscribed. Does this thing have other effects like pitch and such? Can you really drill down and change more parameters ? I thought it sounded good really.. We are in a time where it's so good to buy guitar products. I'm 61 and would have died for such equipment back when I was young. We had nothing like this. If you wanted a good guitar it was either Fender or Gibson and amps were either basically Fender or Marshall or Laney, or Hiwatt, etc.. Thanks so much. Regards from the heartland Indiana. USA.. Tim

[@guitarvibes00]

Donner arena 2000 and Nux mg 30 which is better?

[@mariandondonay2776]

this donner arena does havea harmonizer can you make a video using donner arena 2000 with harmonizer effects

[@BrianMiller-mj4xb]

Doze anyone no what one is better .the arena 2000 or the flammer 200

[@dionemiguel7871]

[@novorec128]

А записывать на смартфон можно с него?

[@JesusOurKing]

Van anyone tell me if this unit has an Octave fuzz Hendrix effect? I cant find sn effect list on Google thanks

[@musik4life24]

How is rhe bypass? Can i put this in the fx loop of ny amp?

[@faededreality]

I would also like to know if i can put the amp in the fx loop

[@HAHb-zc2dp]

Of course you can but why would you,fx loop is for dynamic pedals

[@buffdaddy2032]

The cleans sound good but the distortion sounds like bees buzzing . Reminds me of line 6 amps 🤣🤣

[@alissonzakka3]

Hi Bro! Thanks for the video. I bought the arena 2000 but the Softwere for windows the software for windows does not work, Would you help me? Do you have any information about? I use win 10, acer, 12gb ram, ssd, etc...

[@davidbergewaytogo]

The software doesn't seem to be working for anyone at this moment. I really hope Donner ups their game and make things right.

[@dupawolowaish]

@@davidbergewaytogo yeah now i dont know whether to buy it :/

[@davidbergewaytogo]

@@dupawolowaish the updated Donner Control (v1.1.0) now detects the unit properly, compared to 1.0.1. I didn’t play with it much as of now, but I will.

[@dupawolowaish]

@@davidbergewaytogo thanks bro

[@jjbrog79]

@@davidbergewaytogo No it doesn't, tried 3 different PCs so returning mine.

[@kicikocani1]

how to update it as mine doesn't have this tones 😂

[@JDStone20]

Sounds good to me...........

[@Vacced]

The Donner arena 2000 sucks. I bought one last week and returned it the next day, the effects are alright, distortion/overdrive are subpar and sound too digital. The main problem is that the windows software just doesn't work, I tried all I could and I found out that it doesn't work for everyone on the forums. It's just bugged out. The expression pedal is super stiff and almost unusable. I bought a NuX mg400 instead and I have to say it is way better. Everything works as advertised and the software is easy to use and links up to the unit without any problems. The sounds are just way better and you're able to actually load your own IRs. Stay clear of the Donner.

[@HAHb-zc2dp]

It's a pedal. No computer needed 😂😂😂😂

[@Tocesz]

The distorted sounds sounds Very cheap to me! 😢

[@Alphagosney]

I mean the whole board its self is a little over $200 so you do get what you pay for but this board is a great value for someone starting out.

[@HAHb-zc2dp]

KZbin audio is never good I've never heard a good guitar tone on any yt video

[@Tocesz]

@@HAHb-zc2dp I heard! Just listen the Valeton, or Nux pedal demos! 😉

[@user-ne7io1li6f]

çok para birader

[@teleuser]

No E in rhythm.

[@iloveitall]

Comes very close to a Boss GT6 from 2004.

[@ramonw9430]

Except it sounds way better than the Boss. It was good for it's time but the amp models in the Donner sound far superior. More up to date too.

[@iloveitall]

@@ramonw9430 Feel you didn't get the sarcasm.

[@mrbas5150]

​@@iloveitallthat's because sarcasm is difficult to convey in writing. No tonal inflections or facial expressions. Think about that before you criticize someone for not picking up on sarcasm.

[@iloveitall]

@@mrbas5150 That doesn't matter as sarcasm has an inner core of truth and that is: The Donner sounds horrible like modelling in 2000 did.

[@mrbas5150]

@@iloveitall sounds horrible to the cork sniffers at least.

[@HAHb-zc2dp]

Can't find one review of this used with an amp
