Do the new features justify an upgrade in your opinion?
Not really unless you're using it to record with or gig with as a backup like you said. Stereo is a great feature, but otherwise I'd bet the software for amp and effects is pretty much the same. ♥️🤘♥️
Yes
@@hoosierdaddy2308 MG-300 is stereo too...just buy a splitter cable
@@hoosierdaddy2308 Mg-300 IS stereo, you just need to use a TRS stereo to 2 mono 1/4. It's a commonly available cable. I use that to plug my 300 into my UA Apollo and it works well.
@@entspec Thanks so much..
It may be the only pedal I need as a perpetual bedroom and garage guitarist
Had to watch this again as I'm considering one of these for fun and I keep hearing great things about these from Nux..
One guy said it sounded as good as his axeFX 3 almost.. So that's quite the endorsement. !!
Great video brother! Thanks man!
Sounds great Leon. I bought the MG-300 two years ago, it’s pretty good I guess. I think the best high gain results I’ve gotten out of it are based on copying the settings from your video. I did have trouble with the last firmware update, which is one year ago now. I don’t expect to see many new features, but some bug fixing releases would be nice. Overall not bad but as far as upgrading is concerned, I’ll wait until I can afford an HX Stomp.
I wish this was around 15 years ago when I started playing. Much friendlier UI and tonal experience compared to the horrors of digital modelling in the 00s.
Biiiig time
Even within the last 10 years the multi fx pedals have improved alot especially the amp sims.
Some of those Zoom units were dire 🤣
I still wake up screaming about spiiiiders ( 🕷 🕸 🕷 🕸 🕷 🕸 🕷) but line 6 and not actual spiders
They did. The digitech 2120 or 2112
I like how the stereo chorus so similar to my old korg ax1.5g.. I can't wait to obtain it next month. 😁
Just sounds great. Such an 80s sound. You really bring out the way it used to sound. I think im sold on this.
Glad you like it!!
Sounds great, especially in stereo and you can't beat the price. This could be my next practice rig, especially with your IRs.
I had the first model before I brought the pod go, and I was blown away on how great it was, I gave it to a mate so he can shred without waking his children up😂
I agree. For the money, this is some pretty darn good tone generation. Wouldn't hesitate to use these, like as a 2nd guitar on a doubling track for a different tone, for example.
Wow at 527 that chorus sound was just unreal. Tc style chorus. You get great sounds.
I’m buying one just because I love the 300 so much and want a backup in case it ever goes down.
Me encanta el sonido, espero probarla pronto, saludos desde España ;)
Thanks Leon, great vid as always. Do you know if you can move the volume pedal to the front and program the min to say 25% as I cant do this on the Mg300
Hi! Love your review. How giggable are these smaller modellers? Like switching a couple of FX on and off per song + using the looper live, which is my big concern.
Omg it sounds really good, the problem is in the Switches that pedal should have a XL version of it !!
I couldn't watch all this at first this morning, so I'm commenting now.
It sounds great for the price. We live in a great time for gear. Just awesome. I think you could plug into a rock though and make it sound great with your high level of playing sir. ♥️🤘♥️
Great review my friend.
Great product.
Back in the day I would have died for such a device. Best I could do back then was the Rickman which was way ahead of it's time for the 80s. ♥️🤘♥️
I still say the ADA and Soldano are the best 80s rock preamps / amps of all time. 😂♥️🤘♥️
Have a great day kind sir and be safe and well for you, your friends and family.
Hope the kitties are well too. ♥️🤘♥️
I knew it would 80's clean!
It sounds great as always, but being the excellent player you are I'd not expect less... I'm hoping Santa brings me some new gear this Christmas lol.
I hope so too!
I play a lot of chug core, so that means sustained, high gain palm mutes. Is the noise floor easy to tame?
Is there a whammy pedal in this unit? Also, how many channels does the USB have? Can you track a DI and reamp with it only using its usb interface?
Can you stack drives on the MG400 by using the “comp” block for a second “efx”? So a tube screamer into a fuzz for example. Pretty sure the MG30 does this. Thanks!
Great!
is it possible to record without use of any audio interface (just by using USB connection) ?
Leon in da house. What’s up bro?
Hi nice video! I can buy this or the mooer ge200 (same price) what do you think of those? The ge200 has the possibility to load amp models. Any opinion? Thank you!
The only think I don't so much like are the reverbs on the Nux units. I sold my MG30 for that reason.
Which do you think is better in the emulation of effects and amps, the nux mg30 or the hotone ampero?
Nice video. How does it feel when you play? Dynamic, squished attack, etc..I mean, the sounds are just great but do you have the "interaction" as with ets say ..the real amp?
it's ok. Not as good as the top tier modellers
Seems like a cheap modeller like this combine with a cheap guitar will be able to achieve some expensive tone. A blessing for beginners.
Do you have to pick an amp or can this just be used as effects?
Excellent playing as usual! The amp models sound somewhat static and lifeless to me.
In this pedalboard can I use 2 or 3 Dist or Overdrives in the same preset? like in the mg30?
Are those in built IR's? Or personal presets?
Sounds good!! Can U edit the sounds within the box or do U have to do it on a computer?
You can edit on the box. Just easier to take a screen cap than setup another camera :p
Kool. Thanx for the info. I may check one of these out. I like the basic tone of it. One more question...Does it have a Leslie simulator that I can ramp from slow to fast and does it have a ring modulator? Those are two EFX I like a lot. If it has those two I'll pick one up.
If it can also get that scholz custom distortion sound im in! Can it be done?!
wich one have the best output for practicing with headphones? MG300 or MG400?
Hi Leon! Do you know if this means NUX is doing an upgraded model of the MG-30 (ie MG-40)?
not that i know of but they seem to update their hardware pretty regularly. I hope they do an all in "pro" version soon.
the game changer for these cheaper modellers is that you can load your own IR's, i wonder just how much better the modellers of old would've sounded with decent IR's
tried using your IR's with the Nux and I copied the file down and it doesnt seem to see them.. sorry Im a noob to this.. any ideas..? and thanks for the great vid
Can it connect otg to smartphone when recording clips or live?
Not bad. Not bad at all... Im impressed.
The Nux MG-30 is the best 200 bucks I've ever spent on guitar gear as far as bang for buck goes and crushes any other Chinese made modeler. I don't even look at my crappy Hotone modeler that I paid twice as much for.
This effect can direct recording to DAW without soundcard?
That pedal has some sick effects !!!!!!!!! And for what 219.00 that's a kick ass value in my estimation!
Crazy good value
It's $319 here in Australia
Is there much difference between the MG30 and the MG400?
How is the Wah on this. Thanks.
As a beginner, back when, we had Gorilla amps, absolute junk! As a beginner now, feel lucky you have things like this $220 on amazon US.
Ahhh, another Gorilla alum…
Haha, I also had a Gorilla. Blast from the past! 🙉
Hilarious I had a Gorilla amp as my first amp about 35yrs ago with an Antoria Tele style guitar. still got the gorilla in my loft in excellent condition. It did good enough job as a young teenage beginner.
Gonna get it down later and see how it sounds to more experienced ears in 2024
@@thedeadxtras9927 Ok just looking out for you, start at a low volume... not because it's loud but not to damage your ears with the quality.
Leon, you are correct. The Nux 300 was the best budget modeler I'd ever heard. Much better amp sounds than Mooer, Flamma and Hotone at similar (or higher) price points.
They focused on all the right stuff IMO
The Mg300 output is 1/4 stereo you just need an adapter
Is there a Mesa boogie Quad Preamp hanging out in that rack?
Studio pre :)
Damn. I wish I'd known this was coming out. I'd have held off on my MG300.
Oh well, I can always grab this and sell my MG300 to my student who really wants one
Would you say this is competitive against the MG30?
Can u use it mono. And not stereo or. If I do. How about just two amps instead of power amp (stereo and Cabs)
Yes
anyone have anythoughts on this unit vs the boss gt1? they're in the same price bracket. I have an easier time trusting boss because i own the gt1-B for my bass and I love it.. But its a new world with so many options out there.
Sounds great and looks like it retails for $220. Seems like a screaming deal.
If you're using US dollars maybe.
Reminds me of the digitech rp 250 with less effects
That’s like a candy store
This or Mg30?
This or the Harley Benton GiT..?
No XLR outs and no midi doesn't really help.
ooft. its only $329. amp academy was $299. decisions decisions.
AA definitely feels more "pro" hardware but this has so many great options
@@LeonTodd would you say AA has better tone? Or is it the same architecture inside but different hardware?
@@LeonTodd i think i'll go the AA. i really only need a particular sound (basic rock jcm800 plexi-ish ACDC-ish). i have amp in a box pedals but often they need to be paired with IR loaders for direct to PA (Joyo British and Oxford with York Audio IRs sounds great btw) so this does it all in one. I have the nux mighty air for practicing with effects etc, otherwise have the effects i need in pedal format anyway. im familiar with the nux amp sims in their products i think they're all the same across most.
Good job... you can hear the cheap AD/DA converters:)
Can i use this three switches as scene switches in one preset?
