Zoom G2.1Nu Effects Processor

[@aaaaaaaaaaaaahaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

Man i don't know about anyone else, but I love how Paul has really evolved as a player over the past years.... He's definitely a Tier-One shredder now. Kudos man rock on \m/

[@harveynorman8787]

I own this pedal since 2011. This is a great compact pedal. Used it live on many occasions.

[@AntonioRamos-oq9yc]

I've been using this multi-effects processor for 3-4 years. I highly recommend it.

[@AntonioRamos-oq9yc]

+Ranger Manager 365 Haha, I've definitely upgraded since using this. Still recommend it for beginners!

[@comentaristaanonimo8152]

@@AntonioRamos-oq9yc how about now

[@mazterford]

I just bought this on a 2nd hand shop here in japan,it sounds good and still working good..

[@conradnel6151]

I recently bought this pedal 2nd hand for a reasonable price and its great I play it through my hiwatt g100r and it sounds amazing

[@OCT-DESIGN]

how much did your paid? i'm selling one but i don't know how much money i can set for him

[@AstraVex]

Had one of these for years. I love it, very flexible and customizable :)

[@dreamawaythemiles]

some neat playing there bro ;)

[@TheNickJonathan]

i only watch his videos to see him improvise ..man this guy can reallly solo!

[@jazzydog]

Sound very nice, very good demo Paul. Cheers.

[@CobraAce04]

I own one. I'm not using half the features, but it can churn out some decent sounds. It's compact, reliable and gets the job (or multiple jobs) done

[@lange555]

@GpHeavymetal in the beginning he is playing around E mixolydian, it's the scale of E major but with the note d natural instead of d sharp

[@Themachinegun]

@GregHM81 I was commenting about tuning. not about restringing. It takes longer to tune a floyd than a standard. but if you want to discuss stringing. If you have locking tuners like on higher end ESP's changing strings is faster than any floyd.

[@eddiebaby22]

great demo, very nice playing too.

[@sagahj154]

Yeap, that's the one I have. For me, the zoom processor worked really good, it had a good sound and still has it, so yes, you should get one. For me it's better because with this one you can use any effect you want, and there's room for innovation. With a better amp, you'll just be squared to the few effects you'd get with it. But of course a better amp would help!. Still, I recomend you to get this zoom g2.1nu. Hope it helped you. (sorry for the delayed answer) :P

[@lerlo]

@FreeKinker Dude, it doesnt matter where its made, there must be a reason why zoom is still alive after so many years. These pedals sound amazing when connect straight into the PA system of a pair of good headphones. I already sold my amp and use it straight into monitor speakers, Sound awesome. That being said, I find the stock patches to be crap and the system is very sensitive to pickup types and output. I have a set of different presets for each of my guitars. Its not made to go into amps!

[@mee887]

his playing skill is really growing

[@Drewriders1]

I love Paul's reviews. I have bought a number of things because of him. But I wouldn't use alot of sounds he demostrates in this one. My wants are simple. Great blues, jazz, rock and metal sounds with Reverb. I just don't need too much more. maybe some delay and flange.

[@TheJulioOcmin]

Paul Riario RULES!

[@n70amu]

@FreeKinker well im using zoom product since 2002 and i had zoom 505 which is still working , and i liked it very much... i played it live even on cheap amp called stranger and in both this small little effect processor rock. u need to work alot to get a better sound, if u dont read manual u cant even take better sound from POD HD 500, amps mater if u play hard distortion on ur small amp it might not take the load and the sound will break.

[@speckledjim5150]

I have the 2.1u Nathan. It looks the same but for the pedal shape and new display. Perhaps the internals but who knows for sure? The main thing with the current 2.1Nu series is they come with pre-sets by various artists. My 2.1u cost $220 in 2006, these new ones can be had much cheaper.

[@TheKobe246]

I love how he plays

[@KillJoy353]

@Flakevee I agree, I own an old charvel that used to be my uncle's from highschool and it plays great.

[@Poldo77miticu]

@Marshallstack3203 Yes you can! I use one of them in send and return as a expression pedals, and environment effects...in some cases I use also the noise suppressor. This pedal worsk great!

[@Phoenix_VanDerWeyden]

I like this pedal, i think it´s very good for practicing and it´s a nice deal for its price.

[@sagahj154]

you can modify the patches in the pedal and save the changes, or you can connect to the computer...

[@FilipeSalgueiroo]

That effect at 5:07 is awesome!

[@oliveribanez]

@jacksback1021 I've got an ME-50 and its been working very well, although this zoom pedal looks fine aswell.

[@robbymarquez8245]

It's the greatest pedal in the world besides the digitech rp500/1000 great vids from this dude

[@lonelyplanet988]

@CatDieselPwr Great download info, just bought the unit. Any instruction on how to use the drum machine?

[@silverstaralchemist]

@serazac25 Yes, you can. I own one and I've recorded with it before, but if you're considering buying one make sure you have some sort of output device (such as an amp or headphones with the guitar-sized jack) to monitor the sound of the guitar while recording. You cannot monitor it thru your computer speakers and therefore the amp or headphone is needed. Great effects and features for the price! Cheers. (:

[@SpencerOstrowskyTV2]

What is the effect around 5:30. I love it

[@MreenalMams]

Volume swell / Slow Attack

[@CatDieselPwr]

@aqstickgitarr Download the patches onto your computer,then hook up the pedal to your pc with the usb cable,make sure edit and share connects to your pedal(refresh if needed).Make a new group folder beside the "pc" icon in edit&share,right click an empty patch space and then press "import".You then select the patch you want from the folder on your pc where the new patches are stored.Once it is there you can copy and paste it into your user presets if you want ;)

[@hawg427]

On the guitar your using in the video it looks like it has a Floyd Rose tuner. Could you please explain why people say you can't use drop tuning with a Floyd Rose? Also are they harder to restring your guitar? Thanks.

[@ashleybell5421]

should I get this one or should I get the g1x, hard to choose

[@moronslave]

Paul your fast dude.. any guitar lessons dvd out?

[@Themachinegun]

@hawg427 You can drop tune a guitar with a Floyd. It's just not as easy as with a non-floyd guitar. It just takes longer to tune a floyd guitar because of the floating part. Therer are a bunch of vids on tuning with a floyd that will explain better.

[@DarkFottloch]

i think it would be cool to have a pedal with an emulated pre and power amp section with assignable effects for each. that way i could use a screamer in front of the actual distortion etc...

[@khensheen]

love this effects, but the screen is not so clear when you look what number ur using

[@A7XFIendx6661]

I played that guitar today in samash that guitar is insane

[@kaygee9461]

Can you use this for a bass guitarandc so how does it sound?

[@FilipeSalgueiroo]

I had a zoom g2.1u and it was just awesome but unfortunately it broke and now that i have to buy a new one i guess i will buy this one. I have two effects processors in my head right now, zoom g2.1nu and line 6 floor pod plus, they seem similar but zoom is cheaper and i guess that in this case it doesn't meen worse. I only have one question is the expression pedal any good? For example when you're using wahwah does it get the job done? because on the g2.1u it wasn't as good as i was hoping for!

[@kostismv]

@dimgrav i think you should get this one as a delay pedal is pretty expensive. also in the future you may realize that you need more effects than just chorus and delay :)

[@rafabcarvalho]

Is the Zoom G2.1Nu better than the G7? It sounds really good. I've got a G2.1u here. Is it a good deal to sell it to buy a G7? Will it sound better? Or is it better to keep the G2 for Chorus, Volume and Reverb only and buy some separate stompboxes for the other sounds? Thanks!

[@slinov]

Had a zoom g2.1u until the main 2 buttons decided that working wasn't a good idea anymore. Now i've got a boss pedal. Much better.

[@serazac25]

@TwitchyThePirate thank you! I have this digitech, but not user friendly, the Expresion pedal is a real pain, how good is it on the ZOOM? does it have some sort of on/off button whenever you press the pedal?

[@dimgrav]

I need a delay and a chorus and I am considering the G2NU since the drum machine could turn out to be really handy, as well as the looper, as far as home use is it's purpose mainly. I am going to use it with a 6505+, so I won't be using any distortion models. Is it worthy or should I get 2 separate pedals instead? It's all about saving money... :/

[@rgnygvbhtf]

@hawg427 Well you can, but you'd have to loosen the clamps that hold the strings together and then drop the tuning. If you switch back and forth from drop d and standard alot, it's a pain.

[@CypherThanatos]

@FreeKinker I have a Peavey Bandit 112 with a zoom infront of it and it sounds pretty rad. The Peavey Bandit is only 300 euro. So you do not need a super expensive to make it sound good.

[@rastanaya07]

sir its my first time buying multi effect may i ask which is better Boss ME-25 Guitar Multi-Effects or Boss ME-25 Guitar Multi-Effects ?

[@CraigCbestguitaristintheworld]

hmm.....i dont know. they both are really good.

[@rhandycan1]

its obvious that i will answer BOSS ME-25 in your question...since you just want to compare between the same product. lol

[@lazzRussell]

dafuq

[@wyattcupp]

@BrianKeeley yeah it is, but how can you tell theres an upgrade?

[@InhumanStrings]

@FreeKinker I think the 'digital' sound has nothing to do with the cube. I've never had that problem. But yeah, you're right. Tastes differ..

[@mrgenius4]

i'm struggling to get the " another brick in the wall " delay effect from my new g1u

[@NtGism]

hey man. One question. Let's say that for a track I need two presets. a clean and an overdrive. Can I change with one knob from one to another? Thank you

[@nobleblood100]

i still wondering, it's better to plug it from amps front input or loop return?

[@webtotheflow]

Do i need to have a good amplifier to use this multi fx or is it enough to have an amplifier like the line 6 spider IV ?

[@JoneHoftun]

Only got 3 pedals infront of my marshall, wahwah, tubescreamer and a harmonizer, love them, will never need more :)

[@BrianKeeley]

@BUFFW Hey Bud! After I posted that comment I remembered Paul had the upgraded block put in that Charvel but the whole trem looks different than mine. I have the same guitar and the trem looks different. Maybe he had the whole enitre trem upgrade and not just the block?

[@foocheech]

nice chops

[@serazac25]

can you use the pedal as some sort of medium to record whatever your playing to the computer?

[@LaCuevasinfinaladentrarse]

si es muy bueno yo lo uso con un marshall y suena bastante bien

[@1175ghost]

Fantastic!!!

[@WoWAdmanGuitaring]

What amp is paul using and what are you using to record?

[@MindofYǒng]

My Zoom GFX-5 is wreck, It's time to get a brand new one

[@ulolentot]

@arethosemypants Hi!how much did you bought your g2.1nu and where? i'm looking for one

[@mattamorim8944]

Are those the stock effects? How can I acess the number bank(Those without the letters, like A1) of effects?

[@BrianKeeley]

What's up with the Tremelo on this Charvel? It's not like the one on my Charvel. Is it a Floydupgrades?

[@alejosandu]

at 5:08 the effect is by the delay or by other stuff? thanks!!

[@gameman404]

should I buy this or G1XNext? which one is better? CANT DAMN DECIDE! h4lp!

[@bassbassrich]

would it work with a bass? i've got a boss guitar pedal that works with bass and i'd like to get a multi fx pedal

[@SuperFuckingRock]

Hello ..... how about the sound of the PV 5150 ?

[@derax609]

hey man i am confused between Digitech RP150 and Zoom g2NU. which 1 shud i buy?

[@iamafreebird100]

Hey I have one but a question can u connect a Morley power wAh to dis and how

[@wolveloganurbex]

i have this cheap guitar-amp combo - a black eleca guitar (strat copy) & a 15-watt amp w/ overdrive... i'm wondering what stompbox should i buy? i wanna buy a EH pocket metal or a BOSS metalzone or should i buy this kinda effect processor w/ dozens of effect in one? i'm wondering will shitty sound likely be produced on a cheap 15-watt amp no matter effects unit u bought???

[@gtaxsiempre]

Whats the difference between G2 and G2.1Nu, i know that the G2.1Nu has pedal, but its something different about the sound???

[@denizbayramoglu4231]

I think the guitar is Charvel So-Cal Style 1 HH.

[@svenzia]

@Albatross93 the new g3 has a updated next gen chip - i will buy it.

[@RishabhGupta154]

@guitarworld ! can i get a tab for that ! awesome playing !

[@megatedassaultituary6783]

Wonder how this matches up to Boss Katana 50

[@TangleTwister]

how many fx can be in use at the same time? cant find it on the zoom site...

[@einavi279]

@lozzag13 what are you talking about ? he is an amazing guitar player!

[@ShredderBenjamin]

@sidtheslothful I wouldnt personally, as most of the models would be aimed specifically towards standard guitar. zoom do offer a lot of Bass exclusive multi effects, most of which will be considerably cheaper than this one... Shop around. Zoom B2, digitech BP, Boss ME series, Line 6 XT, X3 etc... all offer brilliant bass FX for all types of musician...

[@shaadshafi]

should i go for this or the boss me 25?

[@Leugim99311]

Guys I owned a Behringer GM108 amplifier which all of you may judge as crap, It has some sort of a three mode built in pre set that sounds crap as well. now this is my question can I use this multi-effects pedal together with my amplifier? Will it sound okay because Im afraid it will turn into a buzzing feedback mayhem.

[@AmbeloHAHAX]

This thing is awesome!!!..........

[@codeman11845]

@SuperFuckingRock I think it sounds really good, i've never played on an actual 5150, so i cant make a comparison, but the amp model sounds pretty damn good to me

[@gianniswildchild]

so,i can plug this in my PC and do a direct in recording?

[@xMtysx02]

sounds good live?

[@xxcannibalxchristian]

i have the G2.1u effects pedal and i bought the G9.tt and i wasnt impressed. the console didnt work at all. so im considering getting this. how similar is it to the older G2.1u to the G2.1Nu? someone please get back to me with help.

[@moe19991]

does it have a Wah effect like the old one ??

[@medunabv11]

whats the difference between this one and the g1xn ??

[@nishantsbenjamin]

g2. 1nu or g5n?? which is a better buy???

[@Softairguy]

@jhonnyfifafreak11 the g2 doesn't have the expression pedal

[@bonbro]

Could i use this product for live concert

[@nobleblood100]

@ThePyroslicer thanks bro...

[@GiacomoLongo]

@Takaminelover25 It's very good in almost every stuation,and its good costruction ensure good reliability

[@arethosemypants]

@sartaajhussain We just have a difference of opinion. I can tell after just a few notes and certainly after no more than 4 measures what any particular patch sounds like. ... That might sound a little haughty and I don't mean it like that at all. Bottom line, it's a good pedal. You would have to spend hundreds of dollars (and I have those too) to get individual effects to match what you can do with one multi-effect pedal.

[@salinger2000]

zoom (Japan project) and quite all electronics stuff, including Apple (US project), are made in China since about 1998.... Of course, they are good (expensive) and less good (cheap) productys. Chinese factories produce also high quality products..... This Zoom G2.1NU is honest, using it at home.

[@plz123fake]

This pedal have whammy?

[@sagahj154]

@FreeKinker Hey, that's not true, I own the same pedal and I use it with a pretty cheap and small 15 watts yamaha amp, and it sounds as good as in the video. It's actualy a very good effect pedal, and it sound great even with only the headphones. It doesn't need a really expensive amp to sound good, trust me...

[@Naive773]

Whats that song at the beginning?

[@DanielG0LD]

what's with the recording? I can record but I'm finding it hard getting the sound I want. I set the g2.1u better than this one.
