- Nux MG 300 Review. In this video, I will show you how to use the NuX MG-300 as a vocal processor. While at it's core, the MG-300 is a guitar modeling processor, it includes fantastic effects that can be used as a vocal processor. All that's required is a impedance transformer for your dynamic mic or a mic preamp for your condenser mic. Imagine getting that classic rotary Led Zeppelin vocal sound with the MG-300. It's very possible. Enjoy!

Thanks very much! Always love your videos, and this one is really inspiring.
Thanks!
Amazing pedal! Good stuff!
Thanks 🙏
Awesome. I was doing this with an old rp100 in the jam space but mg300 sounds really good
Nice!
Great vid. Still scratching the surface with my MG-300...
Keep going. It’s a lot of fun
I am enjoying all your videos on the MG300. It is really helping me understand all I can do with it. As I also play harmonica, can I plug the green bullet mic straight into the MG300 or does it need the impedance transformer? I am keen to try out some effects for the harp.
Thanks. Still need the impedance converter
Let me add a massive WOOOOOOW and follow it up with a HOLY SHEEEEEET!!!! ✨🤘✨👏 You sir, have won the internet with this video!! I bought this pedal a week ago and have been struggling to learn how to maneuver around the different settings. Thank God for your videos!! This is amazing and I can't sing for s*** but I'm inspired to go and buy a MIC and annoy my neighbors now!! 🤣🤣🤣😜😜
Thank and that really makes my day. Please subscribe for future mg300 vids
I second this comment. You really do a great job of explaining these pedals. I need to stop watching your videos though - I just bought this pedal and the Digitech Trio+ today, mostly based on what I found you could do with them from your videos. You're costing me a crap ton of money man, ha ha!!! Keep up the great videos :)
Thx a lot , i subs your channel in 2023🎉
Thanks
That's so awesome. Great job. Can you post a link to an impedance transformer? Don't know how it looks like
Yeah i also want to know what is this impedance transformer sir
crazy man....
It's a lot of fun!
+1 Cool!
Thanks
Great stuff! Can you point me to the specific impedance transformer you use? I guess it should have preferably an XLR male input with a Hi-Z output? Or did you have a preamp in between?
There’s no preamp in between. Just a dynamic mic and impedance transformer that goes from XLR to 1/4”
Hi, great video! Can you explain why do we need an impedance transformer, please ? Is there a difference between passive guitar pickups and passive microphone ?
Thanks. There are plenty of videos out there that can expand greatly on the usage of an impedance transformer. But you do need one in this case as well.
This video got me really excited as my NUX MG-300 was in the mail last week. I had not considered this use case and it's such a cool idea (I'm even thinking about how this could work into a Tascam 424 cassette multitrack!). Thanks for the tutorial!
Meanwhile - I've now received the unit and out of the box it's not sounding great in headphones to me. Anyone have tips on how to get better sound in headphones? I've seen a lot of chatter re: impedance etc. For me there is a lot of weird noise and distortion and levels are really low. Planning to do some troubleshooting this weekend, but curious if others have had this issue and were able to resolve it.
Glad you enjoyed the video. That's the beauty of using pedals like this. Don't let them box you in creatively!
I haven't experienced any headphone issues and I've used at least 3-4 of these units when testing them. what is the impedance of the headphones you're using?
@@ThePedalGuy I'm using AKG K275s. Impedance is listed as 42 Ohm. It very well could be my guitar cable, an output jack issue or a pot issue with my guitar. Going to be doing some troubleshooting over the weekend. I think for me a thing to know about these types of pedals is that you need to get into the editor to make them really shine.
Update - definitely a faulty guitar cable issue. Swapped out cords and it's sounding WAY better now. Thanks for letting me talk it out 😊
holy moly...
btw, the impedance transformer thingy, is it sufficient if I use a passive DI?
Did you try passive di ?
Can you save loop for future usage on the mg 300? How to do it?
Amazing thank you, how about if I want to use a condenser do I need preamp ?
Yes you do
wow
Hopefully a good ‘wow’ 😉
I get the concept but why is there such a difference in tonal sound quality between these two mic's? Try putting that big fancy mic thru the pedal and see if it is the quality of the mic's or the quality of the pedal. Please let me know what you discover. Thanks for the Demo.
HI Sean. Thanks for the question. The difference is that the dynamic mic is more for live vocals than the condenser. It will sound thinner than a condenser plain and simple.
It's a good suggestion and I would very much like to give the condenser mic a shot. Just didn't have time to hook it into the MG-300. Should be able to get to that at some point though. So far the response has been decent for this video. Sound off if you want to hear it with a condenser!
@@ThePedalGuy I suppose that you have the condenser mic hooked up to a mixer, for it's phantom power, I wonder if you could take the line Level out of the mixer to your impedance matching transformer and send it to your pedal? Thanks for your previous response.
Does the Mg300 have a dotted eight setting?
How would you set up a preset to use it with a bass guitar? Any tips? Thank you!
As I understand it there’s a planned update that will include bass amps so that should do the trick.
At 6:32, I thought you were going to start singing that ABBA song.
LOL.
@@ThePedalGuyWow!! You answered me! For that reason alone, you have gained another subscriber for your channel.
I'm just koking with you.
In fact, when I saw the notification of the reply, I went into the video to read it and realized that I had not yet subscribed to your channel, and of course I could not be left out of your excellent content.
If all youtubers were aware of how much "normal people" value humility and a simple response in their comment ...
I wish you much success in your life.
PS: I'm from Brazil (and contrary to what many Europeans and Americans think, here we speak Portuguese and not Spanish) and I have no idea if I'm managing to make myself understood .
Sorry but I would have loved if you have started from the beginning! I have a mic, nux and my laptop. So the Nux is connected via USB to the laptop of course. And my mic is connected via USB through a second port on the laptop. How do I get the mic sound processed out through the nux?
Just listen to what I said in the Mic Type section of the video. If you're using a dynamic mic, you use an impedance transformer and plug it into the back of the MG-300. That's it. There's no USB trickery past that.
I just ordered one and I'm more of a bassist (starting to get into guitar so that's why I ordered it) but, how does it work for bass guitar? Is it usable as that? If not can I bypass everything and just use as an audio interface?
Hi. It doesn’t currently include bass amps or bass specific fx but I assume that’s planned in a future update. And yes you can just use it as an audio io if you’d like.
@@ThePedalGuy If I load a bass amp IR it should work, right? Thanks for the reply!
@@DoctorSilence95 well.....kind of. You need a bass amp emulation to complete the combination of bass amp and cab.
Is it possible to connect Electret Condenser mic to AuxIn channel without impedance transformer?
You will need some sort of phantom power to make it work.
Could you use Nux Mg30 and mg 400 like that too?
What about some distortion/overdrive for Motörhead style vocals? 😛
Sure why not?
Do you have a vid showing using the distortion on vocals?
Sorry, I don't. But just use your imagination. 😀
@@ThePedalGuy yea I was just hoping to see someone else using it like that, I've tried a few different things, Great vids though!
How do you connect mic if its only guitar cabel slot?
An impedance converter from xlr to 1/4”
Can it be used together with a guitar? Looping a vocal and a guitar at the same time?
Probably not without the use of an external mixer
Can use harmonis effect for our backing vokal??
I’m sure that you could
@@ThePedalGuy thank your sir. Please make more vidio about this pedal😊🙏
@@RockatHome new MG300 vid this Tuesday
5:30 ... reminds me of when I make a phone call via my local cell phone network tower.
can valeton and mooer be used for vocals too?
Probably but I couldn’t tell you for sure
Hey bro. Can you give me a link to an impedance transformer?
Any impedance converter should do. Just look it up on Amazon.
@@ThePedalGuy I didn't get one. What should I exactly search for?
Hey bro can you give me a link i dont know whats looks like what i need.... just guve one picture link or for example link please..
Is it any good for acoustic/electric guitar
Yes. The latest firmware has acoustic guitar IR’s
I wonder what the name such as JL Slash, JL Santana mean... What does that mean?
Those are the initials of the person that designed those presets
Would it work with the mg 400?
Yes absolutely
Hello, thanks for the video, I have a PA system called Fender Passport 150 pro, and it has an stereo out, can I use the Nux mg 300 as an interface?
Greetings from México!
Thanks. Are you talking about routing the outputs of the PA system to the input of the MG300? I'm not sure what the question is.
@@ThePedalGuy Thanks for asking my question, yes, I want to connect from the PA to the input of the MG300, is it that possible?
@@danielparra5007 It might work but I would be careful with the volume matching
how about bass?
It can be used with bass, but I believe you will need to use a bass IR.
Does the mg300 can download harmonists
Not sure what you mean? There is a guitar harmony effect that can work in that way, but the results may vary.
Hi, what size or specifications for impedance transformer ?
Nothing specific. It was a stock impedance converter from a local gc
@@ThePedalGuy Thanks I’ll try and get one, would a passive or active di do the same job please ?
@@darrenmitchell1744 passive should be fine but I would double check
@@ThePedalGuy Thanxs for all your help
I can't seem to make it work! I have the mic already plugged in but still no sound!
Are you using a dynamic mic? If so are you using an impedance converter to make the connection?
@@ThePedalGuy Nope, it's a condenser mic Neumann TLM 102 copy.
