[@gitarhane]

I am pressing pretty hard to activate the pedal but it doesnt work here. Should i press harder or something?

[@ThePedalGuy]

The on/off on the expression pedal is pressure sensitive so you do need to press down with your foot and it should feel fine. Takes a bit more work with your hands but if you are still having issues try calibrating it

[@gitarhane]

@@ThePedalGuy i handled it thx for answer

[@martinchocoo]

hii, great video, tho I cant seem to turn on the wah on no matter how hard i push down, i´ve previously updated its firmware if that helps.

Very useful info. Thanks! Most Multi effects units plugged into the front of an Amp don't sound good. But they sound great if you use an FRFR Amp/powered speaker. Where does the MG 300 stand?

Can you use the expression pedal to do ambient volume swells?

[@ThePedalGuy]

Sure. You should be able to do that just fine.

[@sinistrality7883]

@@ThePedalGuy nah im sorry, I'm mainly asking this since most expression pedals that controls volume, only control the volume of the amp and not the guitar, so when you put heavy reverb and delay on it, and try to do volume swells the trails of the reverb and delay aren't left off.

Thanks for the sub! Haven't used the GT1 so I couldn't tell you. The MG-300 has a Dual Rec included already, but I found that I liked the Diezel emulation even better

[@Searchingforsilver777]

I was happy with the MG 300 before but seeing this video makes me want to experiment more and more. I also have a BOSS ME-80 which is real fun to play with. The only problem is I also have the Katana MK II 100w head w/ 5 " speaker and home made cabinet with two 12' jbls =, two 4.5" All arounds. And two 4 " piezo tweeters. SO my amp pretty much does many of the things the effects pedals can do, however they will both work compatible with the amp at two different levels in the effects chain. Got a lot to play with.

[@ThePedalGuy]

Looks like you’re heading in the right direction

[@oldmanandguitar]

I am interested in this pedal, maybe add to effects lopp of my origin 20? I currently love the sound i have with a ds1, metal zone and ns2. Does the nux have its own noise reduction? Many thanks for the video.

[@shoter9696]

Hi! pedal guy, love your videos. I got a question. My volume/wah pedal is not working correctly, when I change presets it suddenly volume goes down a lot or activates the wah from nowhere. I hope you can help me with that. Any way, thank you for your videos! Saludos from México.

[@ThePedalGuy]

Sorry for my late reply. Have you calibrated the exp pedal?

[@tiago5a]

Is it possible to create a freezer effect with a reverb and the expression pedal? Thanks

[@ThePedalGuy]

[@paulhansen8566]

Great video! I just got mine today and I calibrated the expression pedal, but I'm having a problem. I pick the string or play a chord their's a half second delay with the sound coming out. I don't have the delay on at all and it sounds that way on every preset I try. Is their a way I can fix that or is the unit bad?

[@ThePedalGuy]

That’s odd. If you would post a video demonstrating the issue on our MG300 FB group we can help

[@asirex]

Can the pitch shifter be used as a different tuning (I mean without tuning the guitar to that tuning)

[@sinistrality7883]

How far is the reach of the pitch bender? a full octave? double octaves?

[@Funkfreed]

Would you rather have the TSAC tone & menu simplicity of NUX MG300 or the stomp mode of Valeton GP 100?

Haven’t used the valeton so I couldn’t give you an objective opinion.

[@jhonelguerrero7218]

Can do pre select? While switch on other patches?

[@ThePedalGuy]

Not sure I understand.

[@martindamasin8669]

Would the exp pedal set to the od sound good for a solo boost?

[@ThePedalGuy]

When it comes to the EFX block, the Exp pedal Controls GAIN (DRIVE) parameter of OD/DIST. Or controls PITCH parameter of PITCH BENDER.

[@steelydan1242]

Can you do this for MG100?

[@ThePedalGuy]

Eventually I might be able to do something for the MG100

[@eloy4672]

is the exp pedal dual function? If you turn it off it function as a volume pedal?

So the parameter to which I can assign the pedal within each effect is predetermined? Or can I configure that. Thanks.

I only recently got my MG-300, and on mine, after holding edit/exit and save, then using the group module buttons to navigate to the pedal option, I have to press save to get to the calibration, and edit/exit just exits them menu. I don't know yet if this is the same for other menu options.

Hi. Unfortunately, no not at this point. It might be addressed in a future firmware update, but I would bet that it will be found on the upcoming MG-30 when that arrives.

[@elemkay5104]

Hey cool vid. I noticed that when you used the whammy, pushing the expression pedal all the way down didn't result in a whole octave drop - it was slightly off. Is that something that is consistent whenever you use it? I've seen a few people talk about issues with the pedal working 100% correctly, so just doing some research before I take the plunge and get one.

[@ThePedalGuy]

Thanks. That probably had more to do with not calibrating the pedal properly to my hand strength.

I have a question. Is it possible to assign exp pedal to more detailed parameters?

And is it possible to assign exp pedal to several parameters at once in one preset?

[@sinistrality7883]

I have this pedal, and the answer is no, the exp pedal can only be mapped on the volume of said parameters, basically "how loud do you want Modulation to be" etc, it's not that detailed tbh and no, there's no parameter for the EQ, and no you can only map one parameter in a preset.
