I've owned both Helix LT and Kemper Stage. Both pretty good beasts. Bought a Valeton GP200 for solo gigs and playing at home. After 2 weeks I sold the other ones. I've kept my Helix Native License, and I also use TONEX for amp cloning. But the Valeton GP200 is part of my main live rig now. Sooo happy with its purchase. The unit is so compact and "backpackable", especially considering the number of footswitches it includes. Firmware updates are frequent, and they listen to customer feedback! Can't wait for Valeton to get into the "cloning" stuff. Can't go wrong with one of these, trust me!

[@trevorreniger5670]

Lee can never retire! He's just such a sweet, positive, and charming man. In a world of negativity, his attitude is a light that we need. Joke away, dad.

[@david_farmer]

100% agree! Lee is a quick wit and regularly makes me chuckle. Great tones, great demos, great wit. I love Anderton's TV. :)

[@batphink2655]

That GP -200LT is killer and so is John he's an amazingly versatile player. You should let him demo more gear. Great video, Cheers!

I'd love to see some 'sound like' videos with these. Watching you guys create a patch for an artist and comparing it with the real gear.

[@jleatherland]

Please always keep the digital John intro. It tickles me every single time. Great player too

[@JF-em6hr]

I love that they put a lot of desription and/or "trivia" of the sound. It really ups the fun factor.

[@AmbroseB1900]

Great demo! FYI in 1959 computer technology was moving from valves to transistors. IBM's flagship was the 1401 which weighed 5 tons and had 16 kilobytes of memory.

[@uniqdzign2]

Apart from John having some very tasty licks, this is a great pedal! Nice one gentlemen!

[@themicdfiles1865]

I'm ready to pull the trigger on either one of these tonight. I like the idea of the expression pedal. I'm not about to drop $1300 on a boss gt1000 and these both seems to have different things at play, but I think I'm going to go with the GP200 unless this video changes my mind. I dig your content. Always useful. Thank you from the other side of the pond.

[@Fret-knot]

That's a bloody good tool for the money. Digital gets better year on year, undoubtedly.... especially, when you have a Digital John in the house.

[@kenminerva]

Ohh goodness!! Digi John's phrasing is amazing, man!! 🔥🔥🔥🤘🏿🤘🏿🤘🏿

[@ProfessorRockstar]

The bigger 200 model is way more useful as a floor pedal board. As you select the preset, say, a spacey-reverby clean sound for Comfy-Numb, you then have the lower row of four pedals to swith on and off during the song, like a boost or distortion for a solo. I used my 2000-era Line6 podXT-Live that way until it started dying about a year ago. Now I want the Pod-Go, but I may get the Valeton GP-200 and save a few bills.

[@reneliebregt6319]

Very nice demo !! The epiphone sounded very good. I could not find this Epiphone on your website. I have seen an amber Slash model but this one had zebra type humbuckers.

The valeton line are great for the price, the GP-200 has become my go-to for gigging

Me too and if someone chucks a beer on it, it's a lot cheaper to replace than say a Helix etc

[@ChrisHopkinsBass]

Back in 1959 - digital computers were valve based :)

[@ErikOosterwal]

Also, 5 Mbytes of memory was incomprehendable. A 1 kbit (not kbyte) unit of core memory would have been about 8 cu. feet in volume and weighed 50+ pounds. Ain't technology great (when it works)?

[@Docksidestudio1]

And those valve computers were best…… you can feel the warmth and air movement….. digital computers have never got the feel right under the fingers….

I've just ordered one from Andertons, based on this amazing video 😁😁👍👍

[@thedeadxtras9927]

Sounds just as good as other brands at 3 or 4 times the price, really easy user interface and built solidly, there’s no need to think you’ve got to have a helix, axe fx etc cos this does it all pretty much and sounds just as good but there will always be the players that have got to have the expensive brand to make them sound great, really it’s down to how well you play and edit parameters that really makes you sound great.

[@mrblues1981]

if you are a good guitar player you can make any cheap guitar or pedalboard to make sound amazing also all videos go trough audio interface and makes sound clear , i had a helix floor amazing pedal board then it was too big to carry around then sold my helix and boughy quad cortex about 6 month now and best processor ever ,amazing sound easy to use ,i wouldnt go back now ,

[@robertmansell3667]

I’m a bass player who dabbles badly at guitar,I got the old full fat GP200 and it’s mind blowingly good,it sounds daft but if anything it’s got too much capability,you can sit there for hours just noodling and not actually play anything.but for the money it’s astounding.

[@SnappyJCM800]

That clang sound in the reverb is called the drip.

[@TheDilligan]

Software is nice for ease of use. But it's always important to me that everything you can do in the software can be done on the unit. I loved that about the Boss ME-80 because the unit alone has everything you need and mostly done with knobs. I dislike that the Boss Katana has so much, but very little of it can be accessed at all without connecting it to software. And Personally I didn't like the default effects assignments, so I had to connect it to a computer and go through everything.

[@HellbellyUK]

Same with the Positive Grid Spark amp. If the app stops working for whatever reason you're buggered.

[@StratsRUs]

This is true !

[@donharmuth776]

There is another Product similar to this in the market called Nux Mg30... I think a comparison between the Valenton GP200 and Nux Mg30 would be really interesting.... Also would love if you guys make a video on how to and where can we get free IR s for these kind of multi fx processors... Loved the review... Captain was sailing hard with his jokes today 🤣 ... Pete's voice kept cracking me everytime... Loved John's playing 👌🏻

[@Za7a7aZ]

I always wonder if these brands do use the same chip set and software in their products.. I mean, to design and develop the hardware and software will cost a fortune for a company...what they do is use the hardware and software and mount it in an other housing then the competition...the quality of sound both devices are the same..

[@kavinshanbhag3417]

@@Za7a7aZ I think, complete speculation btw, that they use the same chips but modify the presets and effects available while managing the restrictions

[@vishalbhowmikmusic]

@@Za7a7aZ i think the same as well... I guess there are factories that make these things to the desired specs of the companies... So the component choices around similar price ranges i guess is more or less the same, or they cheap out in one aspect to upgrade another aspect than the rest of the competition keeping it in the same price range... These companies then contract out to freelance audio engineers or their own teams to tweak n program the softwares.... But i have seen that newer and up n coming companies usually put in extra features than their well known competators , i guess the underdogs aim for less profit margins to get themselves visible... But they sometimes lag behind in making their product look polished... Eg. I heard the IRs in MG30 are underwhelming and loading external IR make a massive improvement to the sound... But one thing that MG30 has which none of the similar or even slightly higher priced modelers dont have, is 48khz sampling rate... All others are at 44.1 khz... In paper its kind of a big deal as i also record in my DAW at 48khz.... Once you go down the spec rabbit hole, it gets more n more confusing... I guess thats what makes us all Guitarists, we cant put it to rest...🤣

[@jaminjimlp]

If you Think of it like a PC it may be an accurate statement but the software makes the difference much like peoples argument between Apple and Microsoft when they were both using the same hardware Apples latest was always year old Intel architecture…

Wow!! Move over Pete Honoré, Digital John is in da house lol. Nice playing.

[@hanovergreen4091]

I bought the GP-200. It's on every day on my desk. Love the thing. Despite it's "limitations", it sounds great. I use it alongside a GT-1000, an MG-30 and an Ampero. The GP-200 still sits closest to me. Highly recommend for such massive functionality and low price. Don't be put off by the (relatively) unknown Valeton name and snobs telling you you have to have a Helix or Kemper for Fractal. You don't. Unless you are recording uber pro tunes all the lower priced units are more than 99.9% need.

[@JonSeeMusic]

Dude which one sounds the best? Trying to put one on my board

[@GraniteSoundtrack]

Impressive tones out of this. I mean the cleanish stuff and low gain. All these things do heavy decently but it's the low gain stuff they usually can't get.

Nope, Since this is a IR reader it is the high gain stuff with lots of white noise that usually is the problem.

[@blessedheavyelements8544]

My GP-100 lives in a side pocket of my gig bag in case the GT-1000 craps out. Very good overdrive , delay and verb which is all I use. Best Regards.

[@thedeadxtras9927]

Same here! Got mine for £45 used not a scratch on it and some great sounding FX, nice & small as you say easily fits in side pocket of guitar case, does a stonking job especially as includes looper, tuner & drum patterns (I don’t use but is there for people who need it) for the £45 I spent on it it’s quality and can’t really buy 2 individual budget pedals for that price. The GP200LT is certainly of interest in the near future, obviously would like a Helix or similar but no way life will warrant me spending that amount of dosh on a piece of gear that does a bit more.

[@blessedheavyelements8544]

For whatever reason this lite version sounds better than the GP-200(w/expression pedal) demo .. The only thing I was looking for is a nice "edge of breakup" slightly compressed clean tone ... wasn't crazy about the reverb .. but for $200 it's not bad at all !

Hey guys! I own a GP200, i see you're running 1.1.0 Software, but what FW did that LT have when you tested it/did the video? I notice that the GP200 has the movable FX Loop, and a pink and blue arrow icons in the effect chain screen, but i didnt notice it on your software screen. Did Valeton remove that feature from the GP200LT or is it just needing an update to get it? It would actually be disappointing if the LT didnt have the movable FX Loop.
