Thank you for this Leo! I think the price and so far the sounds make this an instant buy for me. The fact that I cal load up your IRs is great too :-) BTW I adore the 2nd demo tune - really well done!
Thank you! Honestly I also love the second demo song....I was in doubt if to start with that song the whole video...but then I decided to stay wi the more "flashy" one..I'm really happy that you pointed it out!!!
The best JCM 800 sound in modeler that ive listened to. Great!
Hi Paulo, thank you for sharing!
The songs you play in the openings of your videos are very beautiful!
Thank you Paulo, when you like my songs...I'm super happy!!!
Nux MG30 has TSAC - True Simulation of Analog Circuit technlogy, digital multi-effects with analog sound quality. All you need.
Hi, thank you for sharing!
Looks like a great budget option that doesn’t make too many compromises on sound. Great review as always Leo!
Thank you Alex, really appreciated!!!
Smokin’ lead playing Leo!
I’m impressed with the realism of the JCM800 model - it reproduces the signature Marshall percussive attack, and sonic characteristics.
I’d love to hear some more high-gain shred tones, and determine if it can get modern chug tones, for example from the Uberschall model.
Cheers~
Hi Mike, thank you!
Thank you for your suggestion, I'm not sure the Ubershall is available...I have to check it out...
Thank you once more!
I was worry about the footswitch amount limited to just 3 and asked few youtubers if the MG-30 could be switched externally by a midi controller. But! Your demo was so clear and show the two-button pedal included. That is a huge plus for me!
Excellent demo and incredible tone and playing! Greetings from Spain
Thank you Emir, I'm really happy that you have found my video interesting!
Let me just point out that so far, I've been able to use the two footswitches of the NMP2 just to switch on and off effect (stomp mode), but not for switching presets...So far, I don't know if it is just me, or if it is gonna be modified in future firmware updates.
Thank you once more!
@@LeoGibsonGtr I just ordered this MG30. Did you figure it out yet? Should I get the NMP2?
@@MOAB-UT The NMP2 comes free packaged with the MG-30
Loving the double demo song , please continue !!!
Thank you!!!! I will do my best...I'm really happy you like them!!!
@@LeoGibsonGtr and congratulations on the presets!
There have been two feature updates for this unit with a lot of good stuff. Usability (IR collection for quick switching between IRs), more flexible FX chain by switching between block types CMP, EFX and MOD (you can have multiple of those at the same time). More options with USB recording (recording wet and dry at the same time, loopback). More midi options. Some new amps and effects and cabs. The new "scene" function to quickly switch multiple pedals on/off. A "reverb freeze feature". Auto record on looper. Even more stuff coming later this year.
Hi, thank you! The updates to the MG 30 are pretty nice and useful... I hope to be able to make a video about them!
Thank you for pointing out these upgrades!
Great playing Leo. This thing offers a LOT for the price point. Great demo.
Thank you Warren, I'm really happy that you like the playing! I do agree, the value for money is pretty high ...
Great video Leo! Congratulations on getting your presets in there. You deserve it!
Thank you John, really really appreciated!!
Thanks, this unit was one from what I wanted to to have comprehensive information. Now I got it.
Excellent playing too as usual.
Thank you! I'm happy that you found the video useful and that you like the playing!!!
Well done Leo. I appreciate your tones and skillful playing
Thank you, I'm really happy that you appreciate my playing...it's super important for me!!!
Oh my gosh:Great, great arpeggios, dear Leo, excellent. And of course great video, as usual! Thumbs up!
Thank you Christoph, I'm really happy that you enjoyed the video and the arpeggios!!!
Thank you for the video Leo.. amazing playing, as always..
You are welcome, and when you like my playing...I'm super happy!
What I like most about MG 30 is that it contains a lot of presets made someone like you. I would just buy it for this reason.
😀👍...
worth every Penny - Making your own Presets is pure Magic! Get some 3rd Party IRs and you good to go 😎🤘🏻
The best chanel ever..can't wait to compare with real jcm800
Thank you!!! This is a great compliment!!!
AWESOME! I'm very much looking forward to this
Thank you, really appreciated!
The best solution to get a light setup for gigs with a loop to integrate one favorite pedal ;)
Hi David, thank you for sharing!
Already ordered mine. Thank you Leo!
You are welcome!
Thank you for letting us know!
Amazing video! I would like a video about your story. I'm impressed with the dedication you put into your videos and edits.
Thank you so much, I'm super happy that you like the video!!!
Well, I don't have such an interesting story in my opinion...but maybe in the future I will do a video...thank you for your suggestion!
More than the actual demos, I always come to hear your tasteful playing, Leo! Great review, incredible playing! Cheers!
Also, did you try USB recording with the unit? With my NUX-MG300, every track is horribly compressed, even when I do not add any compressors. Have you faced the same issue?
Hi, thank you, I'm happy you like the demo songs!! The demo songs have been recorded via the USB connections actually.
Honestly I was using the MG 300 via analog connections, while here I'm using USB connectivity...so I can tell if the MG 300 has such problems, but the MG 30 seems to be working pretty well with usb connectivity. Of course, if you use the unit with via USB your audio interface, you always have to synchronize the clocks, otherwise the sound is gonna be ruined.
Thank you for your message!
@@LeoGibsonGtr Thanks for taking out the time to reply, Leo!
I feel that the higher gain amps (JCM800 and higher) on the NUX are extremely compressed when using USB recording (without a compressor in the chain). Haven't tried analog recording, though. The cleaner amps are fine - Fender and the likes.
Leo can take a cardboard box, a dirty shoe, and a broken TV and still make it sound so good!!! Great review, and even better playing Leo, Awesome
Thank you! I'm super happy that you like the review and the playing!!
Another big "plus" that wasn't covered, it can load up to 128 3rd Party IR's! That's a big selling point. Way to go, NUX! They really should have included XLR outs, like Ampero.
Hi, thank you for pointing it out and for sharing your opinion!
I really enjoy your displaying of content Leo. Always interesting what you show us 🙂. Thks for all your effort..
You are more than welcome! Your appreciation is really important for me and it push me forward to create more content!!!
Thank you!
Good for you Leo on getting your sounds on this unit, of course it would be interesting if your surname was Fender, then we would have Leo Fender sounds.
😊👍🏻
Thank you, I' also honored to be in company of such great players!
Great video as usual Leo and demo song. That JCM800 tone is right up my alley! I've been waiting for this review as I'm in the market for a replacement for my Line 6 Firehawk FX. I think this would fill that bill nicely. I'd like to see a head-to-head with the MG-30 and the POD Go. I know the POD is more expensive, but I think people in the market for something like this may compare the two (I know I am). I agree, I don't like the absence of the XLR outputs, but I can probably deal with it for good sound and some of the other cool features (parallel effects and extra footswitch included is awesome!) God bless and rock on.
Thank you!!! Yes a comparison with the pod go could be interesting....I need time...as I think also a comparison with Ampero and Mooer would be interesting...I need a second life...😊
I originally was thinking about the pod go but since the price went up on it to $480 that made me think twice about getting it but now with the release of the MG-30 for around $300 i would consider it over the pod go.
Hi Jim, thank you for sharing your opinion! You are the second one to put a comment about the POD GO vs the MG 30...interesting....
@@LeoGibsonGtr My first name is John. Looking forward to that video Leo!
Haha I'll always be pleased to see your name when I buy the Nux :)
😊👍🏻
@@LeoGibsonGtr And its happening! I have one on pre-order with Amazon and they told me it'll arrive on March 22nd. But one thing I can't stop thinking about... can we put more than one delay in the chain? Or is it just one for each fx type?
It's very impressive for its price. I love BOSS but the biggest problem I have with them is the interface. I've been using Boss pedals since 1994 and despite growing with their way of doing things I find the GX100 really hard to use. This interface looks MUCH better. I wish Boss would similarly figure out how to do a GUI.
I think one of the reasons that some of the first review/demos are sounding worse than expected has to do with the volumes and gain staging. I tend to run the amps master almost fully open on most of the modelos on my nux mg-300., and the master level on the unit aroun 30-40%, because I use it mainly for headphone practice Sounds better to me, more open, but I also use external IRs. Maybe that could be a good idea for a follow up video on this unit amp's master vs patch/master level, and how gain staging differs from the nux mg-300, because this one has a different structure. It has pre-eq block plus new (usable) compressors, then it has the new power amp section but lacks a volume level on the built in cabs. Since you're very methodical on your reviews, I think you could really dig in to all that, and it would be pretty useful to all the community.
I so curious to see a comparison between nux mg30, pod go, headrush and joyo gembox lll.
Hi, I' currently working on a comparison with the Mooer GE 200 and the Ampero One that are in the same price range...maybe I will do other comparisons in future. Thank you for your suggestions!
The best review Leo. Thanks
Thank you!!! Your message makes me happy!
Thanks. Amazing review and playing sir Leo 💯
Thank you, I'm really happy that you like it!
Thanks for your videos. It would be great an exclusive video about using Nux Mg30 (or Ampero...) with an acoustic or classical nylon guitars
You are welcome! Ok, thank you for your suggestion!
Nice unit at a price that may be unbeatable. I like the Editor user interface. Smart of them to include the external 2-button foot switch as well. Thanks
Yes, the value for money is pretty high and the addition of the NMP2 add even more value....Thank you!!!
I just paid 199 for this from GC! Lightly used- bought a 2 year warranty.
nice review 👍
Thank you, I'm happy you like it!!!
@@LeoGibsonGtr HEY buddy nice video, question can u have 2 EQ on the same chain, and Amp and Overdrive and delay reverb? just want to know if is possible?
Wow look at his flawes finger tone ❤
Thank you!
Hi Leo, I bought an MG-30 because of your past introductions. Thank you for your work, I like very much your presets. Now, I discovered almost all the features, still took me few days, receiving a very brief user manual. Maybe it would be useful for other users to explain how to activate the WAH on EXP pedal, preset aditional NMP-2 and connect to other pedals by activating S/R box.
Hi Laurian, thank yo for letting me know: I'm happy you like mi videos! You are right....I also wanted to do an "hidden feature video"...but then the QC came out...and I had to do some other videos...I hope to be able to do some other MG30 videos in the coming weeks...
Thank you!
Dude!!! Your twin plays awsome too!!! 😂🤘😍
Thank you!!! 😊
I’m leaning towards the mx5 but only till I get an fm9 as it’s got two of the best fx simulations of rotary and univibe in a modeling unit. Its also got good presets from some of the best preset creators so it’s sounding like a great option. I’ve had an LT and so I’ve heard line 6’s versions and headrush is a superior unit for rotary and univibe sounds and I need these two fx because of my endless Hendrix tone quest and both of these fx are very expensive to buy a great pedal like a neo ventilator or a sabadius Gypsy vibe. Those 2 alone would cost you well over $1000 and the mx5 is only $400.
Hi, thank you for sharing your opinion and your experience!
How do you like the MX5? I had a FM9 too. Amazing but hated the UI so I sold it. I just ordered a MG30 to tie me over until Fractal finally updates their UI. I want a nice big colorful screen- ideally a touchscreen and easier on unit editing like QC. The tones however are there but the user experience needs to be better if I am paying ~$1,800.
Hi Leo, I've been following your channel for a few months. I restarted playing guitar after twenty years but I had abandoned digital for a long time before (since the 9000 zoom times ... I still have it but as an archaeological object ...). Now the world has completely changed and digital is a real alternative. Indeed, the two systems can also be effectively hybridized with, for example, the 4-cable method. So one thing I liked about Nux MG 30 is the presence of the send and return. As a comparison request, I would be interested in a comparison between this pedalboard and the NUX MG 300 (sounds but above all for features such as looper, drum machine, etc.). Until the news of the release of this higher-end model it was my choice ... it was hard to wait almost two months for your presentation. I agree, but you have already answered in other comments, to the request for comparison with ampero ...
Greetings from Venice (I assume we are not far away!). Congratulations for your great, great work!
Hi Ludovico, thank you for following my channel, it is really an honor!
Yes, I do agree, the possibility to use these modelers with our beloved amp is pretty useful!
Both the comparison with the MG 300 and the Ampero are interesting ... I need time, because these video comparisons are pretty time consuming...
Venice is a beautiful city...😊👍🏻
Sounds great😊but in your hands everything sounds great😊👌I am watching your chanel not because of gear😊but because you are great player👌All the best Mr Leo😊👌
Thank you, this is a great compliment that really makes me happy! Thank you so much!
Nice review leo, your video is awesome
I request for all amp and cab sound test from nux mg30? And all drive pedal from nux mg30..haha..thanks
Thank you, I'm really happy that you like it!
😊...interesting test....
Hi Leo! I have a completely unrelated question to the NUX NG30 topic here (fantastic demo by the way!! It's clear and very informative and your playing quality makes it easy to understand the possible nuances one could get out of that piece of gear. Great work so I subscribed happily, thank you!). I noticed you were wearing a little square item on your shirt which looks to me like a sort of bluetooth mic. If so I'd be very interested myself to know what it is if you could spare a moment telling me what it is. I couldn't read the logo and I would really appreciate to know more about it. Thank you very much. All the best to you.
Thank you so much, I'm really happy that you like the video and the playing and your subscription really means a lot. As regards the mic, in this video I was using a Rode Wireless GO, even if I switched to a DJI Mic, as it has the possibility to record audio internally at 32 bit, without the need to connect to a camera or a computer. Maybe the wireless GO II has introduced this feature...but I'm not quite sure.
Thank you!!!!
Hi Leo. I bought the MG300 and have been very happy with it. Will you be doing a comparison of the MG30 with the Pod Go and the Ampero? I was planning to upgrade to a Pod Go but now I am conflicted and the MG30 is less expensive too. By the way, I think your comparison videos are the best! What you do to put these together is an awefull lot of work. Really appreciated. I hope you get beyond 100k subscribers this year. Cheers
Thank you, I'm really happy that you like my videos...and, well, over 100k subs...would be a dream...
Yes, I will do soon a comparison with the Ampero and the Mooer GE 200...I have to think about a comparison with the POD GO...maybe it would be interesting, even if there is a price different that could make the comparison not fair...
Thank you once more!!!!
nice tones Leo, I want one of these compact multi effects pedals.
Thank you Fred!
Nowadays we have a pretty wide range of choice!
Superb presentation in your videos
Thank you, really appreciated!!
Really great stuff! I bought the MG-300 two months ago, I enjoy it very much and for me, even if the 30 has improvements, I'm staying with the 300...just not enough reasons for me personally to go spend another 300 euros for the difference, happy as I am with the MG-300.
Thank you!
Ok, thank you for sharing your opinion!
Still have the 300? Look at the FM3 for your next upgrade.
Ciao Leo! Ottima review come tuo consueto. Davvero interessante questa pedaliera. Sono indeciso se togliere l’Ampero che ho preso poco più di un anno fa per la Nux. L’Ampero mi piace molto ma questa ha la possibilità di essere impiegata con il metodo 4 cavi. Mmm... decisione difficile 😄 Continua a deliziarci con la tua musica ed il tuo garbo.
Grazie Giuseppe!!! MI fa molto piacere che la musica ti piaccia!!! E' una scelta difficile, perché Ampero è una bella macchina...conto di fare qualche video comparison ... ma ho bisogno di tempo...
Grazie ancora!!!
I am looking for something to record with, thank you for the great review. SUBBED!! (NICE PLAYING!!!)
Thank you Roger, really appreciated! I'm happy that you enjoyed the video and for your sub!
This sounds great. Could you make a video of this compared to the Mooer GE200 since they are in the same price range? I already own the GE200 and I'd like to see a comparison to see if it's worth changing. Thanks.
Thank you!
Right now I'm working about it...also with the Ampero one....it requires sometime...stay tuned!!!
@@LeoGibsonGtr Will do. Thanks so much. I'm looking forward to it.
Thank you for the review.
You are welcome!!!!
Leo, nice demo. We're soon hitting 10k subs. Time for a whois Leo video.
Thank you!
😊😊😊😊 I'm so scared about it...but Im study some funny ways to do it...😊
Very nice review! Congratulations
Thank you Ruben, I really appreciated it!
@@LeoGibsonGtr Your videos are better and better! Video and sound
Thank you Ruben...I try to do my best...I'm working hard on the video part...I'm working also on some new video staff that I hope I will be able to share soon!
Ciao Leo, non mi crederai ma,.... avevo previsto il video di oggi ;-)
Eccellente, come al solito.
La mia opinione? L'MG30 è l'esatta via di mezzo tra le Mooer che hai citato. I suoni sono eccellenti ma , per i miei gusti, manca l'emulazione più importante di tutte 5150 o EVH. Quindi preferirei prendere l'MG-300 e risparmiare il resto per un delle Mooer.
Aspetto con ansia il prossimo video.
Continua così. Il primo traguardo è alle porte.
Grande Antonio...è un video a cui lavoravo da molto...e non vedevo l'ora di condividerlo!
Condivido la tua considerazione, anche io suggerisco sempre di guardare i modelli di amp che ci sono, per accertarsi che ci sia quello che preferiamo!
Grazie ancora e in effetti si...attendiamo questi 10k con ansia...😊
Hi Leo,
Thanks for these great videos!
Do you think you could do a comparison between the MG 30 and the newest NUX Trident? It would be interesting to see a technical comparison as well as a sound comparison.
Looking forward to it!
Thanks!
Good review....i wish to have this soon
22 minutes video posted 7 minutes ago, and are already saying it is a good review!!!
@@bateriasautosil 14 minutos de Review e não 22, OK!?
Thank you Yusof, I'm happy you like it!
No mention of the units most powerful function the Scene 1,2,3 function. This makes the unit much more usable in terms of functionality allowing 1 preset to have 3 options
Hi, thank you for sharing this tip!!
great in depth review as usual. How do you think it compares to Boss ME-90 or Nux Trident in terms features and ease of use. and the small pedal can it be used for switching presets . Thanks 👍
Hi, thank you, I'm happy that you appreciate the video!
To me the main difference is the "physical" approach of the ME 90 or the Trident, I mean the fact that they have real rotary knobs. It could be a very handy approach if you are coming from a real amp.
Thank you!
Great playing and great review, Leo! A pleasure watching your videos, as always!
One question about the MG 30... Can you assign separate effects to the UP, DOWN and CTRL switches, and use it as a separate stomp pedals, in the same way as it can be done in the Hotone Ampero?
Thank you so much!
Check Leo's TH-cam "Ampero Control Full review" where he shows how to control the MG30 with the Ampero. My only problem is that this method requires keeping a phone connected between the Ampreo and the MG30 using bluetooth and an adapter, which I wouldn't want to do at a gig. I really hope someone comes up with a way to do it without the phone staying connected.
This is a good review on a good pedal, any giveaways yet
Thank you Julius, I'm really happy that you like the review!!!
Thank you Leo, I was waiting for your video, your modeler review videos are the best I've seen.I was wondering if it worth an upgrade the MG300 sounds wise (the outputs and better body is not import for me).
Hi, I have still do to a direct comparison of the sound...Let me just say that the MG 30 has also parallel chorus delay and reverb and 11 effect blocs vs 8 of the MG 300.
Thank you!
Ciao Leo. A really excellent review as usual! I am interested in how it stacks up against the Ampero but I would also like to know how it sounds with a power amp (like a Seymour Duncan power stage) and an actual 1x12 or 2x12 cabinet. Thanks!
Thank you Fin, I'm happy you like the review!!! These are both great suggestions...I'm working on some comparison videos...to be honest in my future video list there is not your second suggestion about MG 30+power amp...I have to think about it!
Thank you once more!!!
Thanks for the great review. How does it compare to the AmpliTube 5 and Overloud TH-U? Specially knowing this unit doesn’t allow to run amps in parallel. Thanks Leo
You are welcome!
Well, this is a great topic....I would need to do a direct comparison to give you my opinion...maybe in future we will try to do it...thank you for your suggestion!
Hi, Leo! Recently, Nux has released version 5.0 firmware for the MG-30. Could you tell us a bit about its new features?
Thank you for pointing it out...I have to check it out!
Thanks!
Thank you for an excellent review of the unit. I do like this one I hadn't had an aunt model er since the line six pod 2.0 about 19 20 years ago so very excited to take a look at this. Interested in how this would compare with the line six pod go and how is it playing out live with this unit either prior to an amplifier plugged in to the power amp section. again thank you for the excellent review will look for more on this particular product and your presets are excellent. One question though do they ever make presets for playing like r&b funk or soul music would be interested in something like that as well, thank you.
Hi, thank you, really appreciated!!!
There is a price difference between the MG 30 and the POD GO that maybe make a video comparison not fair...but many of you are asking, so I will think about it!
Thank you once more!
Hi, nice playing and tone quality. Is there any Pitch shifting effect available in mg-30? Like when you are playing a solo you can shift the pitch of a note to high pitch by using effects only?
Sounds great value at this price point
Hi, yes, I do agree...
Tones aside, how does it “feel” while playing? The Boss AIRD technology has set a pretty high bar for feel/dynamics. Wondering how this stacks up in the feel department. Thanks for your great reviews my friend!
Thank you, I'm really happy that you like my videos!!!! Well, for the price pretty well...maybe I will do a video about the feel against a real amp...
Thank you once more!
@@LeoGibsonGtr Thanks Leo!
Grazie, Leo. Would you mind commenting on the latency? I cannot find any information on that and I am wondering how this unit compares to the rest of your extensive tests (so impressive and helpful!).
Hi Stephen, thank you for your message! I'm waiting for the Cygnus FM3 firmware update for a second round of that video and I will for sure add the MG 30.
Thank you once more!
Could you compare the MG-30 to Line 6 HX stomp... great vid by the way
Thank you I'm happy you like the video!!! I will think about it, thank you also for this suggestion!
Leo, thanks for all of your detailed, honest and quality reviews (and the always amazing playing too.) I noticed the 2 rows of effects on the screen (parallel mode.) Is it possible to run (dual amps) and split them to left and right?
Hi David, thank you so much! I'm happy you like the video!
No, you cannot have two amps, you can run in parallel only chorus, delay and reverb...thank you for your question!
Price wise - MG30 seems very close to Hotone Ampero (One) , a comparison will be very interesting.
Hi, yes, I do agree...and I woul add the Mooer GE 200...I'm working on that video right now...stay tuned!
Thank you for your message!
Nice video Leo..
could you compare it with Line 6 HELIX HX-Effect
Thank you, I'm happy you like the video! Unfortunately I don't have the HX Effect yet. But if I will get one in the future, I will do the comparison...thank you for your suggestion!
Hello there, great great channel and reviews 👍🏼, I was wonder what do you think about this unit compared to the hx stomp? Do you think the sound is better on the HX? Thanks
Thank you Pablo, really appreciated! I have to make a direct comparison to be able to tell the difference. The main differences that I see are the greater connectivity of the stomp that for instance has stereo fx loop and the longer effect signal chain of the MG 30 that has 11 blocks.
Thank yo for your question!
I'd love it to have a stereo FX loop so I could put stereo pedals in there. And yes, balanced outputs would be great.
I agree that it sounds great, especially for the price.
I assume that it is MIDI controllable through the USB port? That would be good to know.
Did it come with a cable to connect the footswitch to the main unit?
I'd love to hear more thoughts about how much it is a good choice for a pedalboard replacement, and what, if any, additional effects you'd consider adding (or replacing the internal effects). For example the distortion, the types of tubescreamer, the range of delay types and sounds (e.g. does it have a good echorec pedal). Can more effect models be downloaded from the NUX site in the future, or is it pretty much fixed with what comes in it.
And finally I'd love to hear how it compares with the Line6 HX products (Stomp and Effects in particular).
Thank you!
Thanks for the review!
The SLO sim doesn't seem that good. At least definitely not good as the Marshall.
It would be interesting to see an in depth analysis of compression pedals as well.
Hi Paulo, the JCM is my favorite!
Ok, good suggestion!
@@LeoGibsonGtr thanks, Leo.
I like to see how these units handle compression because some of them are not good in this regard. I've recently sold a Mooer G250 in favour of my old Ampero mainly because of its weak compressors.
By the way, if you compare the nux to the ampero, it would also be interesting to see how these parallel delay+reverb in the nux compares to Ampero's delay+reverb pedal.
Thanks again!
You are welcome! Actually I'm not an heavy user of the compressor, but I can totally understand your question and suggestions...
Thank you once more!
Beautiful review! I have a Line 6 Helix. I was wondering if I should get this. On this device, can you download and store other people's presets? Also, what amp are you connected to? These are Killer tones...Thank you for posting this.
Hi Angel, yes you can download and store presets. In the demo I was using a JCM 800 a soldano and a Deluxe reverb. My presets are already stored within the unit.
Thank you for your message and I'm happy you like the video!
Hi Leo,
Thank you for your awesome demo videos, great guitar sounds and skills
I am about to purchase a multi effect, but still doubt.
I think most of the MG-30's demo movies sound thin compared to the MG -300
I would like to see and hear a comparison and want to hear your opinion, from the MG-30 and the Ampero.
thanks in advance
Than you Berry, I'm happy you like it!!!
Im working on a comparison with the Ampero...but I need time, as these my comparison videos are pretty time expensive...
Thank you for your patience!
@@LeoGibsonGtr I understand that Leo, I am waiting patiently
Does it sounds better and more realistic than the Mg300? Especially on clean and bluesy breakup... Thanks
Hi, I still have to make a direct comparison...I'm working about it...
It does sound more realistic, but the MG300 defaults to a more compressed sound which can be a simpler "first" sound than having to setup your tone in MG-30. MG-30 is definitely more versatile it does sound more bright by default. This means you have to e.g. push the bottom end a bit if you're after a "fuller" sound.
Hi Leo! I love your reviews! I have a question about MG-30. Is it possible to stack two overdrive pedals in one signal chain and edit the signal chain freely, or does it only have a fixed signal chain and can only use one overdrive pedal?
Thank you, I'm happy you like my videos!!!
As far as I know the effect chain is flexible, therefore you can move the effect blocks and you can not stack two overdrive. The overdrive is in the "EFX" block and you can not stack two of these blocks.
Thank you for your question and sorry for late answering.
@@LeoGibsonGtr you can actually stack 2 and with the june update even 3 overdrives. The CMP block is switchable to another EFX and the EFX and MOD blocks are switchable between EFX and MOD
Dear Leo! Thanks a lot!!! For me big minus is that MG not have a iOS version of tone studio. Can you compare MG with boss gt core?)
Hi, you are welcome!
Well, I would like firstly to compare it to the Mooer GE 200 and the Ampero, as they are in the same price range. Then to the MG 300 to verify if it is worth the money. I don't know if the comparison with the GT 1k core is fair, as it costs almost double the price. What's your opinion?
Thank you!
Sarei molto curioso di vedere una comparazione con la nuova Zoom G6... vorrei prendere una delle due 😊
Ciao Sergio, si, sarebbe interessante...non ho ancora il G6...vediamo se riesco a prenderlo...
Grazie
Very nice
Thank you, I'm happy you like it!!!!
Primo Demo. 😎👍💯👌🙌🎸🎸✔️
😀👍🎸
Hotone ampero one or nux which one is better
We need a video comparison...😊...I'm working about it...
Ok, 2 things.
1: Does anyone know how does the pitch shifting work? I'd love to be able to use a whammy in my effects chain to do the 2 octave up thing (Morello style) and Mooer GE200 and Ampero seem to be lacking in this department. Is the NUX any different? Can it even go 2 octaves up?
2: Stellar playing! Do you happen to have songs on spotify or something so I can add them to my playlists? Great review either way!
Hi Carlos,
as regards the point 1)...I don't know..I have to check out. If someone has better info, please drop us a message
as regards point 2), yes. I think you can search for Leo Gibson and my songs should come up. Alternatively you can use this playlist: th-cam.com/play/PL5d6_Yq6oCrwnnNHTA0KoVX-H6L1Jo134.html
Thank you!
Великолепно сыграл Браво!
Thank you, I'm happy that you like the video!!!
Hi leo,thanks for your demo,its really informative,only one question..do you think its better than mooer 300 lite if its the same price?
Hi, you are welcome and I'm happy that you find the video informative! Well, it's pretty hard to so assertive...I would say that it depends from your needs...for instance if you want to load profiles done with the GE lab app or you can profile your amp...the GE 300 is better, on the other hand if you want to build parallel effect chain...than the MG 30 is the unit to go.
Therefore I would say that it depends from your need.
Thank you!
Hello Leo, your videos are an incredible guide, they are very helpful 😃, but I have a question, recently I wanted to purchase one, but they told me that it has 2 versions "VI" and another "VM", the difference is that you can edit one in the PC and the other not, my question is if they are some kind of clone or something like that since I did not find information about these "versions" 😮💨and thanks for your amazing videos!
Hi, thank you so much, I'm really happy that you appreciate the videos and find them useful!!!
I'm really sorry, but I don't know the differences about VI and VM...actually I even didn't know there were these versions. Maybe it's better if you ask directly to NUX
Obviously, if someone knows, please drop here a message
Thank you!
@@LeoGibsonGtr thank you for your answer! apparently there are some clones that are not really Nux, that's why they don't work on the PC, thank God I already got an original Nux 😄
Great, as usual, Leo 😉 La qualità dell'uscita USB come scheda audio è buona? può sostituire una buona scheda audio esterna? Grazie!
Ciao Sergio, grazie mille, mi fa piacere ti sia piaciuto! Secondo me si. Le demo songs sono state fatte con l'uscita USB e secondo me si ottengono buoni risultati.
Grazie ancora!
Can you compare the NUX MG30 VS DONNER ARENA 2000 COMPARISON WICTH TO BUY BETWEEN NUX MG30 AND DONNER ARENA2000 THANKS A LOT GOD BLESS IM WAITING FOR COMPARISON REVIEW
Hi, thank you so much for your suggestion! Unfortunately I don't have the Arena...of course if Donner will send me a unit, I will be happy to check it out and make some comparison videos.
Thank you and God bless you too!
Ottima recensione come sempre! Tu consigli di usare una DI box in live visto che non ha uscite
bilanciate?
Grazie mille!!! Se devi utilizzare cavi molto lunghi allora è meglio usare un DI box per poter usare cavi bilanciati XLR.
Nice review Leo! I think this compares with the GE200 in price and it is lower in price than the Line 6 Pod GO and the GE250 but I'd like to see a comparison of the 4 of them in a shootout like you have done with others. Thanks.
Hi, thank you!!!
You are right, it's main competitors are the GE 200 and the Ampero one...a comparison of the four of them would be could and even a pretty "intense" job....
@@LeoGibsonGtr Of all the multi effects comparisons and demos I like yours the best. You always do a great job with them and I appreciate that. I have a GE200 that I'm quite happy with but always looking at the new stuff too. Yours is one of my favourite channels on TH-cam!
Thank you, these are really great compliments...you know, there is a lot of work in my comparisons...and comments like your are really rewarding for me!
Great video. I too would be interested in seeing it vs. the Ampero.
Can this duplicate effects, such as having multiple delays simultaneously?
Hi Christipher, thank you and yes, a comparison would be pretty interesting!
You can have choruses, delay and reverbs in parallel but not duplicated, as far as I know
Thank you for your message!
@@LeoGibsonGtr It didn't seem like it. Still seems like a great value. Thanks!
è quasi inquietante ho cercato una tua recensione di questa multieffetto 3 ore fa
:) ... eh ... ti ho letto nel pensiero...
Spero tu l'abbia trovata utile
Grazie
If you get any chance, I would love your opinions/comparison with the Mooer GE Labs Leo! Just re-watching and thinking of getting this or an interface for iPad... Im leaning to the MG 30 :-) Thanks again.
You are welcome! Yes, it would be interesting...I need another life to do all these videos...😊👍🏻
hello everyone, total 5 footswitches (including 2 external). My preference is stompbox mode. Can this be done with nux mg30?
1 delay
1 boost (eq or comp)
1 chorus
1 overdrive/distortion
1 reverb
---
5
I love it! It's my new GAS!
😊👍🏻🎸
Wow. This is almost enough to stop me pulling the trigger on a Pod Go.
I guess the only question left is how long before we can expect to see the Amazon Basics floor modeler version. What do you suppose they’d call it, the AB-30? ;)
😊 cool!
