Ampero Stomp II vs HX Stomp vs GT 1000 core: which one to buy? (vs Plexi & Deluxe Rev & effect comp)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 авг 2024
- In this video we will share a direct comparison between the Ampero Stomp II, versus the BOSS GT 1000 core versus the Line 6 HX Stomp. And this is the most extensive comparison video I have ever done, by far. First of all we will share a demo song hearing the 3 units in action, then we will hear more sounds in a dedicated section of this video where we will compare the units against a Plexi for overdriven tones and a Fender Deluxe for clean tone, checking out the frequency response, the dynamic range management, the note envelope, etc. Then we will also compare the effects of these 3 units, and finally I will give you my 2 cents. So, I hope you enjoy and please don’t forget to subscribe and hit the bell, as it’s gonna really help me to make more video like this!!!

Let's give this man big respect for this killer playing! It's more than just comparison video!
Thank you Emile, this is a great compliment that really makes me happy and push me forward to make more videos and more music!!!
leo is great!
@@LeoGibsonGtr how long have you been playing guitar leo?
Thank you so much! I'm rally happy that you appreciate my music and my playing!!! I'm playing since....well forever....I think more than 30 years....I can not even remember my self without a guitar....😊
Amazing playing
i always come to this channel for anything im considering purchasing for it’s thorough investigation and honest assessment but I am also rewarded with incredible playing. Grazie Leo!
You are welcome, this is a great compliment that really makes me happy! Thank you!
Another fantastic review! I appreciate that you took the time to compare the effects this time around. It's immensely useful to see what effects each unit has available, how their sounds compare to each other, and what parameters are available to tweak for the same effect between units.
Hi, thank you so much! This was actually a suggestion I've received from you...and, if I can, I try to follow your suggestions!
Thank you for your message!!!
@@LeoGibsonGtr Wow! I appreciate you taking fan feedback to heart. It certainly helps me make that tough decision on which multi-effect unit to go with.
Keep it up, Leo! You're doing great!
Thank you, yes I take very seriously your comments...I'm not always able to do what you ask, but for instance the first comparison video between two amp modeling pedalboards that I did...was actually done a suggestion in the comment section of one of my videos...😊👍🏻
You deserve millions of subscribers just based on this solid video. Marvelous work. Salute!
Thank you so much!!! I'm really happy that you like the video!!!!
It's not only a compare video It's a tutorial, well done, the best one I saw in RUclips!! 😊
Thank you so much, I'm really happy that you appreciate the video!!!
You are absolutely amazing. Amazing comparison, amazing tones, arguments and beautiful playing. Cheers from Brazil.
Thank you so much Pablo, this is really a great compliment that makes me happy!!!!
You done the best comparisson possible with agreggate of your stellar playing, top notch guidance for us, Leo.
Hi Garble, this is a super compliment that makes me happy!!! Thank you so much!!!
This guy has the most awesome looking video! So crisp and clean. Absolute gem of a player!
Thank you so much Eddie, this is a great compliment that really makes me happy!
That is what I'd call a very good demo. Documented. Complete. Perfect job.
Thank you so much! I'm really happy that you like the video!!!
Best reviewer for these heads to head type comparisons - no question! Awesome player and great writer -
Thank you Leo for all you’ve given us. May this New Year bring you incredible Health, Happiness and continued success! 🖖🏼
Thank you so much for such an amazing message!!!!
Thank you for taking the time to live a feedback: it really means a lot to me!
You push me forward to try to make better music and better videos!!!
I wish you the best for the 2024!!!
Thank you!!!
That’s the first video demo I’ve actually watched from the start right to the end and I’ve seen hundreds on pedals , amps ,and guitars ect , well spoken , detailed and presented even with that lovely accent thank you , I will buy the ampero after seeing this in hot red
Thank you soooo much, I'm really happy that you have appreciated the video and to have been of some help!!!!
Italians do it better 😁😂
Thanks Leo for the superb comparison of these units and of course your awesome licks. I am still waiting for my Ampero Stomp. We have a bit of an issue with our roads right now in B.C. I think it is stranded in Calgary at the moment. Stay safe
You are welcome Ralph, I'm really happy that you like the video and the licks!!! Stay safe you too!!!
Your channel starts to gain more attention which is great! Thanks for another great comparison!
Thank you so much!! I really hope so...I really try to provide you with the best content I can, and your feedback is super important for me!!!
This is the review that i have been waiting for.
A direct no nonsense honest comparison that tells us
what the other reviewers don't want you to know.
Thanks for this one Leo.
Thank you Allan, your appreciation is a great reward for me!!!
Respect for everything you did on this video. Best possible comparison. I have the HX for many reasons, it suits me perfectly, but the Ampero is great indeed
Thank you, I'm really happy that you like the video!!! your feedback is super important for me!
So much effort and work producing and editing this video. The opposite of lazy. Very impressive work ethic. Also glad it's not focusing on the ultra high gain sounds, because this is closer to sounds I'd use.
As all your videos excellent comparison Leo, thanks for your work and help other musicians to find out the better choice for gear. I personally liked so much the Ampero II Stomp and I think I will buy it, your video helped a lot. Happy New Year!
Thank you, I'm super happy that you have found the video helpful!
Great video as always Leo, along with an angaging demo song. I'm more a humbucker and crunch tone fan, but I really liked your demo composition and how it really showed off that single coil shimmer of the Strat. I'm still loving my POD Go, so I fall into the Line 6 camp. God bless and rock on 👍😎🎸
Thank you so much...I really appreciate your feedback and support!!! Also in my opinion the PU of the Strats were pretty evident...and if you love your POD GO...no reason to change it!
Thank you and god bless you too!!!
Leo, you seem like a lovely fellow, and a awesome guitarist! ... Thank you so much for these comparisons , they are very fair and great to watch!
Thank you so much, really super appreciated!!!
Funny, some days ago i thought "why nobody compare the different multieffect stomps ?" Finally made a video about it. Great Advices too. Thanks !!!
You are welcome!! We had the same idea....😊👍🏻
Hi Leo, thank you for this extensive comparison. The Ampero is a very tempting proposition. Hotone has done a great job. If it only had scenes/snapshots. That would make it very usable on stage. Personally I can live with the 44,1 kHz conversion rate of the Ampero, so that is no dealbreaker. BTW my compliments for your guitar playing. It is top notch!
Thank you Ronarl, both for sharing your opinion and for the compliments that really make me happy. I see your point, I think it could also depend on the type of use you want to do...for live use, the snapshot are great options, for just recording maybe you don't need snapshots but you want a better conversion rate
Thank you once more!
Great and super detailed comparison! And great playing too, thanks for making this video. As a purely bedroom player looking for maximum features to jam along and do it quietly at home, the Ampero is the winner for me. Aux in, headphone jack, fx loop - looks great to me!
You are welcome, and I'm happy that you like the video and the playing!
Thank you also for sharing your final choice!!!
Desejo muito sucesso para você. Excelente trabalho e contribuição para toda a comunidade que busca este tipo de informação. Você é incrível Leo, obrigado pelos vídeos.
Thank you so much Eduardo!!! This is really a great compliment that push me forward trying to do more and better!!!
Thank you!
Thanks Leo. Excellent review & comparison as always
Thank you so much! I'm really happy that you like the video!
You are such a good player, I’m gaining so much more than just gear information!!
Thank you so much, this is a great compliment, that makes me happy!!!!
that rippage at the beginning was awesome!
this video is great!
Thank you so much, I'm really happy that you appreciate the playing and the video!!!! Thank you for letting me know!!
Leo, you did it again-excellent review, helpful, and timely for me. The Ampero is clearly the one I want now, after studying these for several months. Recently I commented on your Mooer 250 review that I really prefer the white color. Not the most important feature, but the Ampero also looks great in white. I actually have a white limited edition Katana 50 MK II and even spray painted its grille to make it brighter-so it will be a good match. (I also spray painted my Boss EXP pedal gold). The bright colors impact my mood while playing. My two cents.
Hi Mark, thank you, I'm happy to have been of some help! ... also for me the colour and the look of the gear I use is important...I think that our industry should take more into consideration the design and the general look of the gear...the mood and the feel you have while using your gear is important also for me!
Thank you!
Your channel is probably among the best for comparing guitars' multi-effects and processors. Particularly, in terms of amp modeling. If I may add my 2cents, I would suggest to add some assessment about software support (updates) and functionality. Thanks for your great videos.
Hi Vincenzo, thank you so much, I'm really happy that you like the videos!!! Thank you also for your suggestion!!!
Incredible comparison and outstanding demos!
Thank you so much, I'm happy that you like the comparison and the demo!!!
WELL DONE LEO!!!!!!! great playing!!! ....always enjoy your videos ....and I learn THINGS TOO!!! -- thank you

Awesome video!! Killer playing and presentation.. 👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you so much, really super appreciated!!!!
Subscribed - because you just saved me a lot of time Leo. After watching you play I now realise I don’t need any of these effects boxes after all, I can simply give up playing guitar. No seriously, it’s much better when the host has some lovely melodies to kick out, than just dry comparisons, plus it means we the viewers know you are able to try them out properly. Like a lot of music creators, I think, it’s a question of loving the brilliant clarity the digital era has brought, but knowing that it is that very ‘purity’ of the digital sound, that means analog still has a place and a sound of it’s own.
I am usually in GarageBand on my iPad Pro2, and have a couple of tracks released, and I learned a lot doing that in the last 3 years, one major thing seems to be the addition of ‘noise’ or saturation, which seems almost the same thing, to final mixes. So if I had a question, it would be, is there any point in an effects unit for guitar, allowing the option of adding in such noise/saturation, at the playing/FX box stage? Patently, if you are doing a performance, it helps because you then do not have the mixing and mastering between you and the version the speakers emit, so there’s no ‘saturation’ stage. So I guess I am saying, if using such an FX unit as these, is there one that permits the option of adding in some white noise and/or saturation, to dirty the sound a bit, as you are playing in the first place? Thanks again. Stay safe keep well.
[EDIT - PS it’s always a plus IMHO when the FX unit has an app goes with it - it may be easier to make changes offline as it were, on a computer or iPad etc, or just more interesting and convenient. Boss/Roland have their Boss-Tone setup online, I used that a little on my PC when I had the Boss GT-100 box. The GT-1000 unit has an actual app in the app store. On the other hand, it’s perfectly possible, people think this is entirely ‘so what’, and just want an old school standalone FX box. So, what do I know. But, that would be a plus when I get around to replacing my GT-100, which I just sold on Reverb.]
Hi, thank you so much, your subscription really means a lot to me.
So far, I don't remember such a saturation effect available in this amp modelling pedalboards...I mean something like a tape saturator...you typically have to use a plugin in your digital audio workstation once the tracks have been recorded.
Also in my opinion the computer app is pretty important!
Thank you for your message!
yeah exactly. pc app is one of the most important things that actually keeps me away from getting the headrush mx5 which is actually quite a good box on its own. it would be perfect with a pc app.
Wow. Very impressed with the review. Thank you for putting this together. I'm now subscribed.
Best wishes.
Thank you so much, your sub really means a lot to me!!!
Brilliant review and comparison Leo! The Ampero sure packs a LOT of features!!!
Thank you, I'm happy you like it!
Amazing review Leo, thanks for the effort.
Thank you so much, I'm really happy that you like the video!!!
Leo, muito obrigado pelo excelente material que você produz. Tem me ajudado muito a decidir entre a GX-100 e a Ampero.
Hi, you are welcome and I'm happy to have been of some help!!!
Great job as always. Congrats for the channel! The quality (audio and video), the tech sheet comparison, the sound comparison and the honest (2 cents) opinion are already trade mark of yours. Great job! 👏👏👏
Thank you so much Eduardo!!! I'm really happy that you like the videos and the channel...your feedback is really important for me!!!
Great video! As listened in your as well in other reviews, the Boss to my ears sounds sometimes thin and dry, sometimes harsh, sometimes way too compressed. They still have to work very hard not only to make the use of this unit easier but also to achieve a better sound quality: it doesn't sound natural at all.
Hi Stefano, thank you for sharing you opinion and experience!
great video, thanks for the such amount of work!!
You are welcome and I'm super happy that you have appreciated the video!!!
Leo
You're the Best ,amazing Review ,
Thank you, so match!
You are welcome and I'm super happy that you like the video! This is a great compliment, thank you once more!!!
Hi Leo! I think you’re getting better and better at doing the comparison tests 😊
I’m an HX Stomp user and think I was happier with that on the effects but the Ampero definitely won on the amps - not by enough to justify me swapping devices though.
I would say that there’s a better plate reverb on the stomp, it’s called Double Tank and if you remove the modulation on it then it sounds amazing!
The only one I was disappointed with was the Boss. Their amp simulations all seem to have excessive low end and a rumble you don’t get on the others. Once it all went in the mix however you couldn’t really tell.
Keep up the good work!
Thank you Tim, I'm happy that you appreciated the video and that you have notice the effort to provide better and better content.
Thank you also for sharing your opinion about effects...I will try the Double Tank..
Leo, you have the best explanations!!!! thanks
Thank you so much, this is a great compliment, that really makes me happy!
What absolutely beautiful playing, Leo.
Thank you so much for such an amazing compliment, I'm really happy that you like the music and the playing!!!
Tks a lot for the video and for the inclusion of the three effects. That's awesome. I wish u had included the MX5 cause it is a real contender with the ampero2 (if you leave alone the expression pedal of course). All the best
Thank you, I will do a different video: MX5 vs Ampero.
I think that these three are pretty similar in terms of form factor and so they deserve a dedicated video.
Thank you!
Great thank you.
Thank you leo ,,,your videos are very informative and ur skills are awesome ,,,, I have the ampero one and it's very nice and I also like the hx stomp ,,,have a good day sir 😀 😊 😄
Thank you so much, I'm really happy that you like my videos and my skills!!! Thank you also for sharing your experience!
I am looking for my 1st unit like these 1s
Seems like great timing on my part, because I want something fully featured that doesn't need hours of tweaking
It's mostly a recording tool for me
The new Ampero seems perfect...
Think I will order mine in Friday
Thank you for making this comparison so quickly mate
Because I would have otherwise got the boss & I'm sure I would have been happy
But maybe disappointed I didn't wait a week or 2 and got the Ampero 👊
Hi, thank you for sharing your opinion! They are all good unit with which you can make great music...it just a matter of preference and features that better suite your needs.
Thank you!
You have good reviews, comrade. Very interesting. Thanks, useful information
You are welcome, and I'm really happy that you like the reviews!
Hey Leo! I enjoy watching your reviews. First of all, you are a good musician. Your compositions sound great. And this helps to understand how good certain devices from the test are. In addition, you describe the parameters and features of the devices in some detail and remain concise enough. Of the three processors presented, I choose Hoton Ampero. It allows you to get the sound quite close to the reference amplifiers. Offers a fairly large selection of emulation amplifiers and pedals. And to set it up, it seems to be enough to be a musician, not an engineer or a sound engineer. It also has the lowest price. Creating complex playback chains, using digital samples of a large number of amplifiers and pedals complicates and increases the cost of the processor design. Including its setting. Most performers use in their practice one and a half to two dozen amplifiers that have become legendary thanks to the stars of world music. A few dozen more digital copies of the pedals will provide ample opportunities to sound like the idols of millions, or unique. More doesn't always mean better. In addition, the price often determines the choice. Good luck.
Hi, thank you so much, I'm really super happy that you appreciate the videos and the music!
Thank you also for sharing your findings!!!
I am m getting more and more convinced that the right unit for me as a first/last modeller I will ever buy given my age is a Fractal FM9. These units sound fine and great bang for the buck, but just like the fractal tones better. Thanks for the video!
Hi, thank for sharing your opinion...yes, the FM9 seems to be a pretty good and cool unit...
Wow, I just got the Ampero but am surprised by the way that the Boss nailed the Marshall Jumper sound. Always great Leo.
Thank you, both for sharing your opinion and for the compliments!!
Hi, just curious what you meant by "the Boss nailed the Marshall Jumper sound"... You mean the Ampero II Stomp nails the Marshall Jumper sound?
Thanks a lot!!! Best video in 2021))
Thank you so much! This is a great compliment and I'm super happy you like the video!!!
Your feedback is really important for me!!!
Excellent comparison Leo! I must say that the Line 6 HX Stomp sounded great for such an old modeller and it makes me wonder that if they ever release an HX Stomp 2, it could be a big winner. But for now the Ampero seems to be slightly ahead. Although, I was very disappointed to see that Thomann has priced the unit at €499 euro and that makes me hesitant to buy one. I was led to believe that it would be €449. Hopefully, it's just an error on their website!
Hi Finn, in the licked Thomann web site (almost one month ago) the unit was 455...now I see it at 499...it could be derived from the fact the unit is just new and it will decrease....but I'm not sure...
Thank you!
Thanks leo, as always great comparison for reference to decide us what unit buy. I think is time for a new "line 6" product because now are great units side by side. In this review a prefer the ampero II.
Hi Luis, thank you, I'm happy that you like the video! I do agree....it's time for a new Line 6 pedalboard....but it has not to be just the Helix with a different form factor...😊
Thank you for your message!
Great great work, thanks Leo!!!
PS you are an awesome guitar player
Thank you Riccardo, I'm super happy that you like the video and the playing....it really means a lot to me!!!
Excellent video here Leo!
Thank you, really super appreciated!!
Another great video Leo
Thank you, really appreciated!!!
Your playing skills are through the roof Leo. I'm with you, just buy all of them.
Hi, this is a great compliment that makes me super happy!!! Thank you so much!!!
Excellent video ... one more time. I predict that you will have a lot of demand for videos on the Ampero 2
Thank you so much, really appreciated....I hope to be able to follow those demands...😊
Thank you once more!
Great video - if I had just one “criticism” it is that you should have either mixed the order up a bit, or played the clip of the real amp immediately before each modeller, so that your last auditory “memory” is of the real amp before hearing each of the modellers.
Hi Dave, thank you both for the compliment and for your suggestion. Let me just add that this video is already 45m long and repeating the real amp sound before each modeller would have increased the length even more. I will think about it...thank you!
Another great video, thanks Leo!
Must be internering to compare the Hotone with Quad Cortex. Of course there is a big difference pricewise, but stil…
Thank you, I'm happy that you like the video!
Yes, it could be interesting to verify if the price difference is justified....thank you for your suggestion!
I think I'm keeping my HX only because of the reverbs and snapshots, but for amp tone, the ampero got me in love now!
Hi Gabriel, thank you for sharing your opinion and experience!!
Great video Leo! I would love to see a 1:1 comparison between the Boss GT-1000 Core and the Ampero 2 with focus on tone. Best regards from Denmark
Thank you, I'm super happy that you like the video! Let me just say that this video would be an extract of this one, just with the sections related to the Ampero Stomp II and the GT 1000 core....maybe I will put better time stamps, so that you can just see and listen the sections you want.
Thank you!
Leo, I love your reviews. Been subscribed for some time now.
I have been drawn to boss because of the flexibility and ability to make complex signal path as you mentioned. This is great when you are on one patch that has a set volume, reverb, delay settings, and the ability to use the control switches to adjust the FX types, amps and cab settings depending on situation you are in. This means that the boss processing power is great....great in live situations All possible in one patch
Hi, thank you so much, I'm happy that you follow the channel since so long...this is super important for me!
Yes, in this price range, the signal chain of the GT 1000 core is pretty unbeatable.
Thank you!
Thanks for this, chose the ampero stomp ii and no regrets whatsoever! I basically need good amps and cabs and the ampero is great for that. Oh and the zendrive and keeley compressor complete my sound 😊
Hi, thank you so much for sharing your experience and your findings!
thanks leo!!! wish you could compare the latency of recent models. you are a master.
Thank you Jerry, really appreciated! Yes, I'm also curious...but that video is so technical and difficult to do...I need some rest now....😊👍🏻
The quality of this video is insane!!!
Thank you Danis, this is a great compliment that really makes me happy!!
Thanks for your insight. I'm holding on to Mooer GE250 at the moment. Cheers from Singapore.
Hi, I'm happy you have appreciated the video! Yes, also the GE 250 is a great option!
Dear leo 🔥
Amazing playing, I love your videos and i will Say that the ampero is the closest to the real amp, I Will buy it, thanks for share this video 🔥
You are welcome, I'm super happy that you like my playing and my videos!! Your feedback is super important for me!!
Awesome video!!! Thanks. Cheers.
You are welcome, and I'm happy that you like the video!!
HX Stomp credo che necessiti di un aggiornamento per diventare più competitiva di quanto già non lo sia, vedendo che sia Headrush sia Ampero lo hanno avuto, anche se personalmente resterebbe la mia scelta di acquisto tra le tre! Ottima review come sempre Leo :)
Ciao Nicola, grazie per aver condiviso il tuo pensiero! Grazie anche per i complimenti, che mi fanno veramente piacere!
@Leo, thank you again for all the videos. I have finally decided to go with the Ampero II Stomp. I own one since a few weeks now and am pretty happy with it. As you explained already the missing 48khz is a bummer as this inhibits that I use the Ampero as a direct Interface for Rocksmith which requires 48khz (the HX Stomp can do it and there is also a report for RSAsio that it works). However I don't like the user interface of the HX Stomp at all. The Ampero II Stomp however is super intuitive and I love that the editor just looks and feels exactly the same as the great interface on the physical device.
The lack of connectivity for my scenario on USB the Ampero makes up with it's phyiscal connectivity and the routing capabilities in the signal chain. I use the FX Send as input for the Rocksmith cable, the Aux In to feed in the games sound and both the headphone out and the line out for either playing through my headphones or into my full range speakers. So I have all the options and am not dependent on any routing and software on the PC for my scenario which makes it super easy to set up when I want to play.
In addition I very much like the sound of the device. If you set up the global eq right in the beginning using the very first default patch to work well with your setup and speakers, you can use all the factory presets without change and they all sound great. I set up my first own patches by taking all the hi gain amps and routing them through the matching cab plus a TS-404 in front of them with the typical no gain tone to full and most of them sound very good right from the start. For some I changed the mic or the EQ a little bit to my liking but they all maintain a distinct character while being very usable right from the start.
My favourite effect is the Stereo Modernizer. Using that behind a reverb sounds fantastic. You can distinguish your own playing over a backing track so much better without raising the volume which makes it a great tool for this scenario.
The only thing I really miss is a good but simple pitch shifter. You can misuse the dual pitch modulator for this by turning one shifter to zero in the mix, but the sound is not as good as using "The Drop" in front of the Ampero, so I guess I will have to keep using the extra box for scenarios where I need to downtune and am to lazy to tune the guitar.
Many thx again for all your hard work and I hope my comment helps other users to make the right choice.
Thank you so much, I'm really happy to have been of some help!!
Thank you also for sharing your experience...super interesting points!!!
Amazing comparison. I haven't seen anything like this. I'm a jazz player so all I need is clean amp and decent speaker cab emulation, then some reverb and delay. Actually, I'm planning to use a separate pedel just for reverb. So I guess any of the three will work for me. Though the price between the three makes the comparison seems unfair. Should've included Headrush MX5, which is closer to Ampero II's price.
I'm doing this in cases where I can't bring heavy tube amps and can only plugin straight.
I'm very happy with the Boss Core. Sounds amazing.
Hi Jose, thank you for sharing your opinion and experience!
Good job, Leo. Thanks to you so much. (Amazing play skill tho ;) )
One more thing: you might use also yellow badge to compare average stats (not green and not red).
Thank you, I'm happy you like the video and the playing!!!
Thank you also for your suggestion...I will think about it!
I've tried all except for the ampero. I wasn't happy with the others and now the Ampero seems to be the buy for me! Great demo man 🌹💯😊
Thank you, I'm happy to have been of some help!!
@@LeoGibsonGtr One question though... It should be able to load in acoustic IRs? Guess it is but I just have to ask to be sure ❤️
yes, you can. By the way there are already Acoustic IRs inside the Ampero: here a video about it: ruclips.net/video/j5gsEETVN9Q/видео.html
@@LeoGibsonGtr Woohooo... I'm there buddy... I'm there 💯😊
Thank you!
The best comparison chanel ever
Thank you so much, really appreciated!!!
Great video 👍
Thank you so much!!!
Leo reviews the products better than the manufacturer 😂❤ and his guitar playing is incredible 😊
Thank you soooo much for such amazing compiments!!!!
Leo, very nice video as always, great playing, very detailed information and sounds. I would like to know your two cents about the ampero 2 vs nux mg 30, thanks in advance.
Thank you, I'm happy that you like the video! Actually I have not done a direct comparison...I should do it...but you know...the time is limited...and these video comparisons are so time consuming...
Thank you for your suggestion!
Lavoro titanico come al solito Leo! Direi che tutte suonano alla grande, forse Ampero e Helix leggermente sopra, ma sono sfumature. Poi alla fine, sulla dinamica, gli ampli veri continuano a vincere, anche se il gap si è notevolmente ridotto e, nei nostri (parlo per me ovviamente!) mix "artigianali" difficilmente distinguibile. Ho appena preso una Mooer 250, sfruttando l'opportunità di rientrare in un negozio il mio vecchio Novasystem. Volevo una macchina più aggiornata, usabile sia per le sim di amp+ir che in 4cm. Non è male, ma mi sembra che l'Ampero Stomp sia superiore. Magari attendevo un po'...... Proverò ad attendere che arrivi in negozio, e proporre un nuovo scambio. Buona musica e avanti sempre così!
Grazie Lorenzo, mi fa piacere che ti sia piaciuto il video!
Il Mooer è una bella macchina, con il GE lab puoi anche profilare gli ampli o scaricare profili dal sito Mooer...second me ti farà divertire...😊
Grazie ancora!
Thanks alot for your Hardwork 🙏🙏
You are welcome, and I'm happy that you like the video!
good comparison of pedals, i love it
Thank you so much, I'm super happy that you like the videos!!!
Without a doubt, the best value for money is Ampero Stomp II. If the product had brought the scene mode, for the price, it would have killed HX Stomp. Honestly, the Boss product is very expensive for what it delivers!
Today I'm playing with MG-30, Ampero Stomp II and POD HD500X and it's not easy to decide the definitive device. Even old, the HD500X never ceases to amaze and has the best connectivity... but it has lenght and weight (nothing is perfect. huauuaua).
Congratulations for the very educational video, Leo!
Before purchasing the Ampero and MG-30 I did a lot of research and many of your videos were decisive for me. I didn't regret anything; they are great products. Regards! 😀
Thank you so much Paulo, I'm really happy to have been of some help!!!
Thank you also for sharing your experience and your findings!!!
You sir, are amazing!
Thank you sooooo much!
Great playing ! During the song I couldn't hear too much differences but starting from the comparison with a real plexi I can say Ampero is the only one really convincing , both gt1000 and hx stomp are really harsh to listen.
Congrats this comparison is really well done
Hi, thank you for the compliment, I'm happy you like the playing...and yes, in a mixed song it is hard to tell the difference...
@@LeoGibsonGtr You did a great job, I'm wondering how can be Ampero 2 compared with MG-30 which I own about sound , they are different "target" and different prices but could be interesting coz I think many people are wondering this to see if an upgrade it's worth
Thank you for your suggestion...I like both the units...maybe in the coming weeks I will do a direct comparison.
Thank you!
@@LeoGibsonGtr in case it will be very much appreciated but it will be very much appreciated even You will do something else 😀
Sick licks. Subbed.
Thank you so much, it really means a lot to me!!!!
Great comparison. But I see the purpose of these units being created for the purpose of being integrated with other pedals on a full board. I have HX Stomp but was wondering which one will do best along side analog pedals? Used for a mini pedalboard? Used as just amp?
I have to say I agree 100% with the 2 cents seccion. Congrats!
Thank you so much!!!
Great job thank you!
You are welcome Peter, really appreciated!
The ring out tone of the vibrato at Min. 20:53 brings out all you may want to hear from an amp the wood scratch and the warms, the lively feeling of the playing. This I couldn’t hear in the neither of the three boxes.
Beside that - doesn’t the Marshall looks majestic? I bought the HX Stomp referring to one of Leos latter reviews and I love it. The stomp box is for a part timer like me ideal for practicing, recording and just having fun with that huge variety of possibilities.
One main feature for me that comes with the HX stomp is that it has bass amps aboard - so for my recording purposes I saved money on a real bass amp.
Hi Tom, thank you for sharing your opinion and experience!!!
Another amazing comparison. The lack of balance output on the Boss GT1000 and GX100 are really baffling to me. Sure you can get a DI box but that's just another piece of gear to carry around and an added cost if you don't already have one. It's a standard feature on almost all other units.
Hi, thank you for sharing and I'm happy that you like the video!!!
GT1000 Core, the GT1000 has balanced XLR outs like every of these units should have no matter how small or cheap they are, just look at the NUX Amp Academy, NUX got the whole output thing right with that unit (even if it’s mono), but not with the Trident?!
Great Video! Thks mr Leo
You are welcome! I'm happy that you like the video!!!
I realize now I am really doing my HX Stomp a disservice. I have had it basically since its launch but, I have yet to ever utilize or even try snapshots 😓 Great comparison though, not enough change for me to consider changing from my Stomp.
Hi Jose, thank you for sharing your opinion and experience...and of course, if your are happy with your unit...no reason to change...😊👍🏻
Hi Leo, very good and extensive comparison. Based on what I heard via studio monitors I would say Ampero is the closest sounding to the real amps. I am mostly interested in dynamic and volume test. I have a question,did you really change the volume pot on your quitar? My experince with modellers was quite dissapointing when I tested them last time. Hearing your test it sounds like there has been some improvements made.
Hi, thank you, I'm happy you like the video! In the dynamic management test I play really softly and then I start push and push in order to rise the volume and to push the amp unit it breaks up.
Thank you for your message!
Great review. Just looking at the comparison chart, it seems the Ampero is a pretty clear winner.
Hi, thank you both for the compliments and for sharing your opinion!
@@LeoGibsonGtr thanks Leo. I just bought the Ampero.
You are welcome and thank you to let us know your final choice!
