- Hey Gearfacts geezers, a number of you have expressed an interest in hearing more clean and crunch sounds in my demo videos! Fair point, too, I do have a tendency to lean towards distortion (esp. fuzz) as it helps me sound like I have some idea of how to play guitar. SO - despite my musical limitations, here we have the very refined NUX MG-100 and a few of its cleanand mild options.
What a great little unit. Superb instruction video. No flash harry straight to the pointWell done Gearfacts
Cheers Eddy :)
Great video! MIne's in the mail, arriving next week. So excited, can't wait.
Hope you enjoy it! I'd like to hear your opinion :)
sat thru your 'lesson' doing what you said -BRILLIANT -now understand this m/c THANKS SOOOOOO MUCH -i was going to sell it but now i can play with it - and understand the controls --just have to work out the drum m/c a bit better - and saving -then i'm away
THANKS AGAIN GLYNN -FOR A GREAT EXPLANATION OF THE MG100--Brian
Glad it helped! Thanks for watching Gearfacts :)
I like the lite display. Zoom gon was rated no 1 in reviews but I like to see my display
The display is about the same level of detail as the Zoom but seeing it in colour does help. Gearfacts
I've had the Zoom pedal before, and have just purchased this one. It seems to have all the features, a better display, more knobs/easier controls, and a wah pedal. All for about the same price. Zoom is still a decent pedal though
@@Curt-0001 Does this Nux Mg100 have compatible software or app? I think the Zoom does
Very helpful; however, it was not possible to see which knobs you were turning to get to the different effects cabinets amps, etc. Also you mentioned that one effect was connected to the pedal, but did not describe how to get there. I just bought one of these units, which came with manual, but the manual is not clear on results of various settings. If you could do another video with a wider field of view to include knob selection, that would be great!
Fair point, the knobs were indeed out of picture as I used them. Basically they correspond with what's on the screen - if there are three knobs visible then they'll respond to the three physical knobs as if the picture was the actual pedal. It feels un-natural, for sure. As for assigning the expression pedal, I have to admit I can't remember as this video is from a long time ago and I don't have the pedal anymore. My strategy was always just to find a similar patch to what I wanted, and edit from there. Sorry I couldn't be more help than that! :)
@@gearfacts Yes, understood. I wanted to assume that, from the start, so, all is good!
I have this pedal I'm getting issue in tuning guitar I mean tuner of this pedal not perfect 440 , how to make it fix
very clear lesson -can you save your fav. setting? -and save a drum setting? - can't see what your doing with knobs / buttons? -I find the m/c bit complicated -can you help please - just want 2 nice setting- cleanish and crunchie -would like to save a drum setting for quick set up - drum and guitar -MANY THANKS BRIAN
Hi Brian - When you save your settings the chosen drum beat should save as part of that overall preset. I think - I haven't had this pedal for along time. Feel free to ask questions, others on this thread may also chip in with some ideas :) Glynn
Many thanks for swift reply Glynn - how do you switch between all those settings -wish we could see the controls your using - could you poss. do a vid showing whats going on -I won't use mine because can't understand setting -bit 'thick' maybe -HELP SOMEONE PLEASE
Last but not least there is low sound in pedal when I press for solo how to make rise sound of it! ????
does this have a delay/pause in between changing effects/presets in the middle of playing?
It’s been a long time since I’ve used it, but I have a feeling it did have a noticeable pause
Also I'm getting lack of low end in my distortion patch , how to make it EQ
Does it require an additional interface to run through a computer, or is one built in for computer recording?
I think you do require an interface, but it might be worth checking the specs online.
What song you recomanded for play for this tone..😄..very good classic tone..
Any classic rock suits this pedal well I think. Excellent for Hendrix.
Hello Gearfacts,
I have one final question. You allready helped me a lot! I subscribed to your beautifull channel! My question is can i switch with my feet between clean and distortion channel? This pedal is my first pedal and I am going to order it from China.
Happy to help out! Switching between clean and distortion requires setting up two almost identical patches side by side (patches 12 and 13, for example). One with the right amount of distortion and one with the right amount of 'clean'. Most other effects in each patch should remain pretty much the same, to keep it sounding consistent. When the two consecutaive patches are set up you can just switch between them using the left/right pedals. You can't switch distortion on/off within a single patch unless you are in edit mode and you use your fingers to operate the buttons, which isn't really practical. Thanks again for watching :)
@@gearfacts Hey! What do you mean by left/right pedals? I only see one wah pedal on the right. Also to switch between clean and distorted, I would just press down the wah pedal? Wouldn't it do wah or volume instead? Or do you mean to press down the fat square button on the right to switch to the clean preset you created next to your distorted preset? Thanks alot!
nice video man is there many different chorus effects thanks.
Great video... thanks for sharing.
How would you say this compares to the Zoom G1Xon??
For classic sounds, choose the Nux. For crazy experimental sounds, choose the Zoom. Thanks for watching Gearfacts :)
been looking at something like this to use while on holiday would you recommend this or Mooer GE100
Definitely this over the GE100 :) Gearfacts
Sorry just seen that you already answered similar question
Is the desktop speakers plugged in directly to mg100?
It has a normal stereo headphone socket (6mm).
i m not sure if i should buy the NUX MG-100 or the Mooer GE-100 Multy effect. i like play Lovesongs of the 50s and 60s and solo to them and i like Country music. i have the feeling that the Vintage setting on NUX is good for this. and maybe the Mooer is fantastic but maybe more for Rock muisc. can someone help ?
Definitely the Nux, it'll be way better for your style. 100% certain :) Gearfacts
Hey. Thank you very much..This Vintage Crunch caught my attention, it is just what end 50s had. Jim Reeves and Patsy Cline. lot of Echo. i don t know if they had Reverb or Delay back then. but it is more or less the same. good for a solo part for Lovesongs. Thank you again.
Ok guys 40 second loop only in it you'll still need a looper the 10 min amoon mini is 45 bucks Amazon good as ditto lots cheaper
Yep, a lot of people want looping :) #gearfacts
Can you give me suggestion which one i should buy, this Nux or Mooer GE-100, i play more jazz/funk. But need some OD too. Bcs im actually getting confused what to choose. thank you! :)
I'd chose the Nux personally, but here's a video I made comparing the two, so you can decide what suits you best: th-cam.com/video/cDXeU5N3oEs/w-d-xo.html
@@gearfacts thank you very muchh
good day sir, does this have a manual feature like what Zoom G3 and Zoom G5 does? like the 2 pedal button will be for 2 separate stompbox switch?
No, it can't do that. The switches will only go up or down to the next fully-programmed patch. Thanks for watching Gearfacts :)
which is better? this or the zoom G1xon
Im looking for a hard rock and metal sound for riffs and solos but this dont have that, doesn’t have a distortion or hard rock or metal classic sound ?
I don't think there's much better out there for under $100. Maybe the Zoom G1FOUR? :) #gearfacts
Can I use this pedal with my accoustic guitar? (taylor 114ce)
In the price range, is it still worth to buy the Nu-X MG-100 now in 2023?
Yeep, they're soooo cheap now and still good.
Hellow! I have a question.
Can we make a priority list of two to three effects that we want to use in a single song? Like for instance can we go to 7d from 1c straight away and then to 5a and tgen come back to 1c all by simply a click of toe?
Can we simply cut the bowing down part and adjusting the tone with the knob when we are on a stage and only one guitar is being played and we can't afford to lose time of adjustment of new effect?
The only answer is 'no' I'm afraid. All the patches are laid out in sequence, so you have to arrange your sounds in order, right next to each other. Sorry! Gearfacts
Gearfacts ooops, so this reduces its on stage effectiveness big time, don't you think?
And thanks for ypur reply :)
Well I don't know about 'big time' but yes I agree there is an issue there. I think guitarists who have this concern are more likely to choose a unit that has more pedal switches on it. My favourites are the Line 6 PodXT and the Boss ME-8B. And you're most welcome for the reply, it's good to get comments that discuss a valid point :)
Gearfacts I appreciate your suggestions. And thanks alot for sharing your thoughts :)
Gearfacts plus one more question.
Does the zoom 707-ll possess this quality of priority switching?
Is it good pedal? I want to buy this but I'm not sure
It's one of the best you can get for around $100. Great sounds. Thanks for watching Gearfacts.
I used 9V Ac-Dc Adaptor 500mA but the battery level on this decreased one and sometimes 2 bar in continuous playing in two hours. Is there any something wrong on this device? please help...
You can change in the menu for type of battery to give accurate reading
I got mine for about $60 and it’s not bad at all.
Does it compare with a Zoom G1X Four? I wanna use it for fuzz, whammy, pitch shift and phaser, something like a Jack White tone thing. I stopped at the g1xon too but it looks so fragile and some people say that they are noisy. Which one should I go for? Can I download patches? Options are Zoom G1Xon, Zoom G1x four, This NUX. Also will I be able to pull it off on a gig?
For classic sounds I think the Nux is better tbh. A lot of people will argue but frankly I thought this pedal was amazing for its price. It's just under-sized and ugly. Oh and don't stress too much about noise, if you give such concerns too much attention it'll get in the way of the creative process :) #gearfacts
Great video. What are the differences with the MG-200?
Virtually nothing, the tone is the same. The MG200 has no expression pedal though #gearfacts
@@gearfacts Thanks Gearfacts for the response
Does anyone know how to turn on the pedal key. The red light is not coming on for sometime now...:(
can yu change tempo with foot controls ?
Which one is better for good metal tone ge100 nux mg100 or g1xon
I have already g1xon bt i dont like the distortion sound of g1xon...
I'll be making a comparative video very soon, as many people have this question :) #gearfacts
How to save patch in A postion ????
Gearfacts: Hey good day! does it have a whammy effect in it and how long its looper goes? I just wanna know further datail about it coz i'm planning of buying one.
It does have a whammy effect, not sure about the looper but if you google "MG-100 pdf" you'll see the manual.
Gearfacts thanks for the info.!
hi I have a stupid question. how do I change effects pedals without interrupting the sounds. example: Overdrive to clean channel (just like analog pedals)
sealedforproctection make them to sound equally, not equal in volume but equal in loudness so changing will be less noticeable
if you have a choice what would you get
Nux Mg 100
Mooer ge100
Zoom G1Xfour
In terms of effects and playability.
Nux MG100 for me personally.
@@gearfacts hi , and for quality effect ? G1 four or nux 100 ??? Thanks
@@squayssan5352 Nux100, in my opinion
@@gearfacts thanks 😊
Does this pedal have clean boost? Let's say I want to place it after the distortion to increase level for lead solo.
Yep :) Gearfacts
Dear GF
Who's better nux mg 100 or nux mfx 10?? Does both has a cool clarity?
They have the same sound processor, so choose the one that looks/feels better for you. Personally I think the MFX10 has much nicer design and appearance, but is it worth the extra money? Like I said - they sound exactly the same :) Gearfacts
Which is better between Mooer GE100 vs Nux mg100?
haha nakalalito
G'day mate. I got one of these for $70 at Aldi..how do you bypass it? You can bypass via the tuner but that crap.
The only way I know to bypass is by setting all the effects to "off" then saving that as a patch just for bypass. It's not a perfect solution, but the MG-100 isn't really designed to be perfect haha. Good deal for $70 though, definitely. Thanks for watching Gearfacts :)
Yuval Legendtofsk
I ended up buying this. It sounds way better in real life but my concern is it doesnt have a power switch. But trust me, it do sound like a real amp. Im just afraid it will get wrecked cause it doesnt have a power switch.
Yeah I hear what you're saying, I prefer to have an actual switch as well. I also think the design itself is quite ugly but as you say, there's no disputing that the sound is very good for the price. Thanks for watching Gearfacts :)
@@gearfacts Would just unplugging it from the wall and leaving the guitar wire in it when I'm done playing work? Like that I don't risk breaking the socket where the wire goes into it. Or will that cause more damage than good? Thanks again!
Everytime i will use multiple effects the saved preset will gone. like the set volume will be reduced if i change the clean into distortion and back to clean again.. Help me pls.. Tnx..
Are you saving your patches properly? It doesn't save automatically like the Zoom pedals, you have to manually store your changes.
Yes. Everytime i make some changes to the patch i always saved it.
Exactly like color display.
it got octave effect??
No
How do I get more sustain out of it? I own it but all the notes die out too quick
i would try experimenting with the compressor effects. GF
how do you remove that tap thing?
sir make some more mg 100 ttutiorial... there is no tutiorial for mg 100
Hi, does it have delay subdivision like dotted eight? Thanks
Unfortunately, no. It just has a basic delay time setting like on an ordinary pedal. Thanks for watching Gearfacts!
If it's a tap tempo option then can't a dotted eighth be manually tapped to whatever tempo in use? (Tempo set Via included drums / metronome)
Does it differ greatly in sound with the mfx 10??
I couldn't discern any difference at all. Gearfacts
Just bought one of these and have found when making a backing track with looper and drums the drums slowly go out of sync over a few loops every thing else is great
Yes, the loop is not time-synced with the drums. It comes down to millisecond timing by the user unfortunately.
hi does it stay in sync without the lòoper.can u record the guitar with drums? and if so stay on sync cheers...
Nux mg 100 over Joyo gem box 2
What say?
I'd choose the Nux personally :) Gearfacts
Can you combine effects and how many can you use at once?
Yes, you can use (I think) 8 at once :) #gearfacts
@@gearfacts wow! But can you download patches and if so from? where
Also does it have octaver, whammy, wah and fuzz?
This or the gx1on? Which should I buy?
G1xon for experiments in sound, MG-100 for classic tones :) GF
What has better sound. This or the Mooer GE 100?
This one, the Nux MG100.
@@gearfacts Thanks for your reply. Right now I'm leaning towards the Mooer.
Can i plug my headphones directly to this?
Yep you sure can. Gearfacts
How to save patch after editing?????
Hi, press SAVE.
can you delete the last loop or is it a case of start again
I think you have to start again :) #gearfacts
Cam swells be done with this pedal?
Yes (I think) you can assign the pedal to gently add delay or reverb
Does this have an acoustic simulation preset?
Yes :) Gearfacts
Does this pedal have noise gate?
Yep :) GF
Is it me, or I can hear lots of "pops" going to delay's tempo??🤔
Yep that's down to me... Not sure what happened there :) #gearfacts
Can mg-100 use on bass?
Yes, absolutely.
Mine will be deliverd today 59.99 amazon
Good price I think :) #gearfacts
Can It be used as a whammy pedal
Yes
do you know how to reset this in its factory defaults?
Nope, it's not in the manual. Try turning it on while holding down various buttons maybe
@@gearfacts I tried 😟 nothing happened
d0es the tuner w0rk 0n 7 string guitar?
Yeah I think you could make it do the job, even if you have to play a harmonic no the fifth fret when tuning that low string. It'd be fine. Thanks for watching Gearfacts. :)
Can i plug my headset directly?
yep
@@gearfacts headseat is not working to my nux mg 100😢 i dont know why
can you get a really good bluesy tone out of this?
It does have various blues presets. And as stated in the video I think this pedal is the best in its class, so for the price I would have I say yes - it will give you good quality blues tones at a comparatively low cost. Thanks for watching Gearfacts!
thanks for your reply ,was just about to order the Boss BD-2 Blues Driver @ $139.00 cdn on amazon when I came across this awesome pedal selling for $188.00 cdn ,I believe your video and reply helped with my decision ,thanks mate and Merry Christmas.
I am just about to order it from amazon but does not say if the 9v adaptor is included or not ,was yours included?
tony mediati great feedback, glad the video was helpful for you. Thanks for watching Gearfacts!
which is better? this or the MG-200?
They sound identical, both exceptionally good for the price. But this one (MG-100) has an expression pedal which is an undeniable advantage. They both need a major upgrade in the aesthetics department! Thanks for watching Gearfacts.
How do you change from the first bank of EQ settings to the second bank. I have been messing with this for some time now, and just can figure it out.
Ah yes, this is a weird part of it. I found that if you scroll to the right, it gives the upper set of EQ settings instead of the next effect in the chain. I'm delving into my unreliable memory though, hope it's correct on this occasion!
You should've backed up the camera a little so we can see how to use it. Cheers
Yeah, it's not my finest work but I thought it might help some ppl :)
Can i use it for My Bass?
Yep that'd work pretty well. Some of the amp sims might sound a bit weird, but yeah I say go for it :) Gearfacts
Does it has a noise gate?
Yep it has noise reduction. Gearfacts
This or Zoom G1X Four?
Such different pedals... Hmmm, I'd say Nux if you like classic tones and Zoom if you like modern features like beats, looping, and experimental effects :) #gearfacts
Zoom for me 8 days a week.
Its better then g1x but is it better then g1xon?
Well the G1xon has the clear advantage of the expression pedal. The sound is still more organic on the Nux but the G1xon is probably more fun and creative for most players. It really depends what you want in a pedal - the authentic sounds of the Nux or the crazy possibilities of the Zoom. Thanks for watching Gearfacts :)
Gearfacts thanks for the respond! More power bro.!
This one or mooer ge 100?
I would choose the Nux MG100
@@gearfacts can you please suggest me a guitar? Should i take epiphone les paul special 2 or ve?
Or if you can see the guitar " taloha neon jumpstart " then suggest me..
From Malaysia 🇱🇷
this or mooer ge100?
The Nux sounds way better. The GE100 is very chaotic though (if you like that style) and the big screen is an advantage. Ultimately it comes down to sound quality though, and all Nux multi-effects pedals perform better than the GE100. Thanks for watching Gearfacts!
Solo feio danado
Zoom g1 four and NUX mg 100 -which is better?
I liked the Nux more, personally.
which is better? this or the zoom g1x?
The Nux MG-100 is way better than the Zoom G1x. Thanks for watching Gearfacts :)
Great! thank you so much for your reply. :))))))
This or ddigitech rp355?
The 355 is more "serious" I think. The Nux is more casual and fun, more 'untamed' if you like. Depends if you are a guitarist who wants to create 'prefect' tone (Digitech) or a guitarist who just likes to turn it up and have a wild time (Nux)
