Nice work. You know what's funny about these guitar demo vids is the pickups can really change the tone obviously. They should've made a system where multiple pickups are captured and fed to multiple input channels on the multi effect processor. Come to think of it, one could run a dry signal to a software like Re-Guitar by bluecat and really open up some reamping/guitaring possibilities.
Thank you buddy but I believe I did not do a good enough job because I completely missed out the rhythm section (drum/beats). You may check here at page 34 of the manual : zoomcorp.com/media/documents/E_G3n_G3Xn.pdf In terms of how it sounds, I have missed it out. So sorry buddy.
@@ksscreations4013 Thanks for pointing out to the user manual. Much appreciate it. I am getting this product shortly. Will indeed be helpful, along with your video!! Thanks again. Cheers.
Very good job 👍. For info, you can quickly change the type of lettering by keeping the selection button pressed. 😜 A french user of this excellent unit by Zoom.
I like to use this pedal in comination with the GXon pedal. Its a smaller version of this pedal. I use the G3XN for the effects chains and the GXon for the beat and rhythm looper. Dont forget you can use mutli-effect pedals in a chain the same way you would with individual pedals. The the rhythm and looper is a little easier to use than the ones on this pedal. Still, this is a good video and thank you!
@@scottyboy2400 I'm also strapped man😬that's y was going round asking suggestions I'm like a newbie in this pedal world and budget is 160$-190$ and this was the first suggestion.... If you you spend sometime can you mention the pros and cons with a feedback??? Or can you suggest any other processor??
@@joshuatmn - Well I got mine used but looked like new off of ebay about a yr ago and no problem with the pedal. - as for the boss? That was also my second choice because of the features and price range but can't tell u if it's as good or better than the zoom as i have never used it. Seems like i remember hearing one was better for daw recording than the other? In case that matters 2 u research that. -Good luck my brother and jam on!
Great job done...Do you recommend G3XN in 2022 despite few new processors in the market in same or less price bracket... Kindly give your opinion solely based upon the tonal quality and for gigging live on PA...
I would not recommend it for live shows due to the build quality. You gonna get lots of adrenaline, emotions, moving around, you step on it to hard, you may break it. If you're not moving much, mellow type of music, then it's fine.
Hi there! Thanks for this wonderful video. Could you please enable to "Save to Playlist" button for this video? I wish to save it in my Zoom G3XN learnings (Private playlist).
Hey. Do you think it's worth to change my zoom G3X for this one. I'm only going to use the modulations. Effects. Like Phaser. Flanger.. Reverb. Delay etc. Through the loop effect of my tube amp. Cheers
sorry buddy, I've completely forgotten to include it. I don't work at the music shop anymore and I don't personally own one. I hope you can find information. Check the manual at page 34. They show you how all you need to know about the rhythms. zoomcorp.com/media/documents/E_G3n_G3Xn.pdf Hope it helps, Sorry once again :)
No. Even if its possible I wouldn't recommend it because you're going lose a lot of clarity and experience big delays. Minimum get a simple interface like the Scarlett Solo. That will be better. Trust me, you will thank me later.
Can you tell an idiot like me what amp setting you should have to use the pedal. I have this plugged into my line 6 30w spider amp on a clean channel and honestly the pedal sounds terrible whatever preset tones I use. What am I doing wrong?
hmmm, settings should be 12 o clock. try looking at the back of your amp, see if there's a send/return loop inputs. if you do, insert the input into the return instead of the front of the amp. this should give you the best sound. if your amp does not have that you might be out of luck. best you can do you put all EQ to 12 o clock for the most neutral sound.
Ope! Loved the direction this was going until he started playing Stairway... stopped to video immediately to ask you guys... Does this mean I just got a computer virus? :p
Hey Plz I really need to know is this worth the price or is there some other processor better than this..... I'm really looking to buy a processor but am like a new guy so am thinking to purchase something cheap but not too cheap and found this and this is kinda good so since you have used this like a longer duration would you suggest it???
The exterior is completely plastic. If your jamming at home it is fine. But if you're using it for Gigs and live performances, especially heavy music, then I would strongly suggest not.
From Google : The presence control takes care of the overall treble response of the amp from the power section. This means once you've dialed in your tone, you can increase the overall brightness of the entire tone with the presence control. If you turn the presence down, you get a sound with a noticeable cut in top end
Hi. I want to buy a Zoom G3Xn for practicing without connecting to an amplifier. I want to play on headphones. I have a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 3Gen interface. I want to record my game from time to time. Is purchasing this Zoom G3Xn a good idea? Is the Zoom G1x Four enough? Please give me a hint.
@@ksscreations4013 thank you for responding. Do you feel the G3xn is good for a one man band ? Just vocals and guitar strumming? I might also play in a rock band as a lead/rhythm guitarist so wondering if the zoom is perfect for that.
I use the g3n a yeat ago, through headphones, and the sound i get is a complete sh...any suggestions about that? (I use the parameter mic on and the reverb "Air" at the end of the chain and the sound is still awful)
Headphones will always sound dry and weak. Headphones output of the g3n does not amplify the sound, that's why it sounds terrible. Best to use speakers. If at all you need to use headphones, at least plug the g3n to an audio interface first, and then headphone out from there.
Hey quick question, I own a boss katana MK2 which I've plugged into my zoom g3xn. How do I make it so the effects on my amp don't interfere with my effects unit? I just wanna play the pure effects that are on the zoom but they keep getting altered with. Any help would be appreciated thanks!
@@HashBrown99Gaming katana has effects saved in the presets factory default. Plug it to computer to configure and turn it all off. Make the signal as clear as posible. No effects in the chain
Look at the back of your Katana, find the FX loop inputs. There you will see 'Send' and 'Return'. Connect your external effects to the 'Return' and voila. Your effects will now bypass the amp and go straight to the speakers.
Though it is one of the most budget friendly guitar multi effect processor.Dont buy g3xn" guys instead go for g3n".After using g3xn for a year the inbuilt expression pedal has started having problems. Using the "wah " effect and the" pitch shifter" has become a nightmare. Have tried calibrating the pedal and also resetting the unit but still these effects sound like a "slicer effect with fluctuating repetition of the wah" even though the pedal is only pressed once. Have also contacted the support team hope they respond to my mail. I have been using the unit only indoors for personal use and the chances of getting the unit pedal dirty is out of the question. Will be posting a video concerning the problem on my channel..starting to regret choosing "g3xn over "boss me25
Sorry to hear that buddy. I believe looking at the construction quality of the product, it is targeted to new musicians who are venturing into multieffects processors, and for the price it cost effective. The front panels and pedal are made out of injection molded plastic, if there's too much force it is bound to fail. I hope they are able to fix your issue.
