Will it Chug? Me and Robin are trying out the Zoom G1X Four Multifeffect...
sort of....as you said, it was a digital chug...a Dug lol.
Behringer vtone108 amp!! analogic amp and presets of distortion... Ideas for you, máster. cheers ❤️
Make another Will It Chug episode with a high gain silicon fuzzbox
Try the Boss GT - 100 please
One question , is Robin #TeamCart???
I've been playing for 30 years and just got one of these for jamming at home, and I have to say with all honesty that this pedal is pretty friggin awesome for 100 bucks. Drums, a looper and a massive amount of pretty good sounding effects, all for 100 bucks...it was a total no brainer purchase. 🤘😆🤘
can the zoom g1x be plugged directly into a laptop?
What do u plug the pedal into?
@@sharim605 yes
Can you use the looper and drums at the same time?
@@mykneeshurt8393 Yeah
My ex has a zoom G3 and it's the only thing I miss about her 😂
Lol 🤣
Nice. I have the zoom g1xnext
How did you guys meet?
Man, If I'd date any girl wich plays any instrument, I would be the happiest man in the world
Lol
my ex had a 5 string bass and that's the only thing i miss about her
As a guitarist completely new to effects, I got this a year ago and it was a game changer. The drum machine/metronome and looper with all the effects give you a lot to play with
Plot Twist: They are actually lying on the floor and the camera is mounted to the ceiling.
Metal Surge I can’t unsee it now 😂🤣🤣
NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! I can't see it differently now!!!!!!!!!
@@banaantjexx164 just look at his hair and the illusion its gone
fuck you for messing my perception up irreparably
Hahahahah damn it, perception is screwed now
I just bought one and I like it very much. Highly customizable, and comes with a free software with which you can easily program many sounds. A lot of buck for the price!
Everybody be talking about the effects but I wanna know about backing/looping....what do you say about that?
4:50
Sees RandyTrain preset
Plays Van Halen
confusing Ola, very good.
Ikr, I was hoping he play Crazy Train though.
He confused but he got the spirit
what van halen riff was that?
@@noxvi4753 Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love
Had one of these delivered yesterday and I really like it after about an hour of playing and tweaking. For $100 US dollars it's well worth it.
I've had a Zoom G5 for years now and it's nice to see they've done some upgrades, even the dual rectifier model sounds usable
6:04 when you hit the pedals sweet spot
as Zoom owner who have read thoroughly them manuals, I suggest you guys do so before this video. Zoom is pretty confusing, unless using the G5n series.
5 minutes to read the quick start, and it's not confusing at all.
Of Wolf and Man is an underrated Metallica song. Thanks for playing it Ola!
Shhhh... those guys sue everyone...
That why the riff was so familiar
Nice video, Ola! But who's the long haired dude playing with the Zoom gear all the time?!
It says so in the Description, its Robin.
@@wupme I hope you're trolling back to his initial troll..
@@wupme Read the comment again but more carefully.
@@tomh4244 haha, I think he did :)
@@Farvann man with the RUclips comments section level..you never know lmao
I have a Zoom 506B that I got in 1996. It's still going strong. It even makes a bass chug. 😆
Yeah I would love to see him spend some time and dig into what this thing can do he would probably be very impressed once he figured it out. I have an older model it's the g1xon but I love it to death
@Everything was he doing a gig in the middle of the street?
sounds pretty decent actually. 100 bucks? Not bad.
Edit : after some research online, I found a lot of interesting features this small unit can offer. It does worth more than just 100 bucks. I'm happily take my words back!
@@s1iznc1d34 also the zoom g1on is as good if not better. zoom makes great inexpensive multifx units
I need to try this myself, the cabinet is heavily influence the sound.
@@s1iznc1d34 if you are not capable of using it don't talk. It is a much better pedal sound wise.
@@s1iznc1d34 maybe you mean the g1x. that is old shite. The g1on is the a one, just the name is similar
@@s1iznc1d34 i have used the g1on a LOT. And i can tell it is far better. If you are not capable of setting it good, your opinion is simply not valid
This Zoom sounds pretty damn good for the price. Worth the money.
This Dude looks like Older version of kmac😂
lol😂😂
The amount of enjoyment from that small box the moment you guys found the rhythm engine :D
I guarantee if it was $400 and made by REVV, he'd love the shit outta it, even if it sounded identical to this.
Yeah Ola is all about fancy names
lol true
@@LeftHandedRightHanded Fancy MEMES too.
@@kiillabytez his memes suck
This is the most fun I've ever seen Ola having
These are really neat units, Ive had one for a few months. I can say that for the compact form they sacrificed some ease of use. There is a computer editor for it which makes making tones waaaay easier
It's really not hard to use. Once you understand how to navigate the GUI, you'll be making patches in a snap.
What editor?
Tone Lib is THE way to go, not the default Zoom editor.
I got one of these recently because it had good reviews. It's customizable and has good built-in drum options. And messing around with the looper is always fun.
I like the looper function on it because it shows a progress bar instead of just a light that winks at the end of the sequence.
I got the G1 Four (no expression pedal) to use as a headphone amp and love it for that reason. It's tiny enough to throw in my Steinberger soft case with a usb battery, I get frequent breaks in my workplace and the built in drum machine and looper while basic are great for practice.
So if i plug in headphones i don't need an amp?
@@kanjikingdom output is also headphone but you'll need an adapter to make the headphone jack 1/4in
can you record from the usb port to your pc? I have digitech old pedal and that is the way i record, when i plug it in the pc it is recognized as output device and i can record like that
The thing that's the only drawback on zoom pedals is that figuring our all the combination patterns of the control panel. It can be a little nerve racking. But for the quality and price they are hard to beat.
boo hoo, whine whine whine
nerve *wracking
I bought a zoom 505 over 20 years ago and it still works lol. I play with it every once in awhile
I have a zoom 505 which I still use. The 505 was the first digital effects processor made. It still kicks ass. I'm thinking of buying this one coz it has the pedal n honestly the 505 is an old friend who needs to semi retire. Over the yrs I've soldered the Jack's when they got loose. I used it live a lot until I quit music a few yrs back. I also had 2 zoom 8080s I used to use but I sold those. I held onto to The 505 coz it's historical.
I've had the Zoom G3Xn for two years now and I combine it IR cabs. Best tone for practice and demo recordings.
Sounds way better than the Zoom I tried 20 years ago.
Been jamming this pedal for a while now. It's pretty customisable but can take a bit to get used to. Thanks for the chug! Respect from NZ
I have a Zoom 1010 and still chugs.. it is 27 years old. Zoom products are good..
4:32 Ola: SKATER!!! (Plays smells like teen spirit)
Own Zoom G5n for 2 years, pretty good unit for the price.
They are far better than their reputation, even the old zoom 505 was quite good for its price.
I still use mine for practising at home with low volumes.
SO glad I clicked on this!
Was kinda pissed you didn't bother to at least learn some of the functions first, but then watching you explore and have fun with it was awesome.
The point of the video is how long to make it chug....
Nothing like watching Ola in the morning.
chorus pedal, will it chug? next pls
XD LMAO 😂
Wtf, LMFAO
Course not wtf
Zoom makes some great products. They have guitar effects in some of there products that I haven't seen in any other effects products. Read manual and do another review.
Got one of these a few months ago and loved it been my main pedal since
This is great. My first pedal ever was a Zoom 505 multi effects. pretty much terrible but nostalgic to me
I was the same but on bass, back in the day. Now play guitar. Mine was the 506 bass version. It was great if you wanted a Cliff Burton sound. Then I got the next version (can't remember what it's called) and it was shit.... Very digital sound.
Still got my 505. Don't use it, but holding on for sentimental value. Maybe one day or will be worth something 🤘
Will anything chug if you don’t figure out how to use it first?
Suprised me for the price. Instead of lugging my Kemper rack are Axe FX rack when I travel, this is a viable way to have a small imprint and have decent tone
I really like your channel. You make the process of knowing more about guitar and pedals more funny and light to do!
I have the G1XOn, the precursor to this model. I love the sound of it, for such a cheap pedal, and those can still be had for cheap, new or used. I honestly turn the gain down, and run it in front of tube preamps from ART run into a power amp, or in front of a clean tube amp. Sounds beast for what it is. It can also run on a run of the mill stomp box power unit; I use a few other stomp boxes, as well as a DI box micro pedal, and they are all run off of the same iSpot multiadapter.
In front of a clean tube amp. Ha ha ha, that's the biggest joke I have ever heard. Who plugs a digital shit in a tube amp? Plug a digital shit in another digital shit. If you can afford (or willing to afford) money for a tube amp, why stop there? There are many decent small tube amps out there on the market with both clean & dirty settings.
@@necromancer9422 I use the digital for noisegating and additional EQ because the tube amp I have is small, cheap, and only has a single tone knob on both the clean and dirty channel, on addition to being a hybrid amp with a solid state power section - some moddellers have power tube emulation. Also, some people like to blend for unique tones, or want the ability for other sounds for solos or whatever. Why do you have to be so closed minded and attacking? Why does it bother you what I do? If it sounded bad, I'm pretty sure one of my many friends who also play would gladly tell me while jamming or when I show them a recording. Matter of fact, some of them HAVE told me about bad tones I had in the past, which ironically led me to the hardware setup I have now. There are plenty of bands, guitarists, and bass players who mix and match tube, other analog circuits, solid state, and digital live and/or in studio. You gonna judge them, too? They're making money with a similar setup to mine, so I'd think they would be a better, more authoritative source on the matter.
One more thing - What about a 2notes torpedo or something like that. Since it's digital, does it negate an all tube head if you use one as a DI/load box? If not, what's the determining factor as to whether one digital thing or another is allowed or not? You sound like an idiot, with no idea what they're talking about, and a judgmental one at that. Go be rude somewhere else. While you're doing that, the rest of us will be making music. Make me famous, hater, or shut up. Besides, this video is like a year old. Get a life.
@@needsLITHIUM 1) Oops somebody got hurt (cause his neighbours have complained about noise pollution).
2) Who have more life? Me commenting on a one year old comment or you replying within 4 hours? If you are so busy making music, how did you get the time to reply so fast?
3) What's your amp?
The presets always suck. To get the sound you want you have to edit them or build your own with available effects. Its not a 5k rack unit but it has the capability of sounding pretty badass. Had several Zoom processors. The GFX8 is the best one. Steve
Just want to point out that all the cabinet simulations (like the marshall one you were testing in the beginning) are turned off by default, even if they show up in the effects chain. I don't understand this design -- but anyhow the way to fix it is go into the cab parameters and turn "mic" to "on".
Appreciated!
Hey cool video. Helpful while as I’m planing to buy this effect from zoom. Just a quick suggestion though, could you fiddle around before you make the video? Was kind of lost for first few minutes as you guys were figuring out as well. I mean it’s not an invoking video is it.
Cheers
You can also add an effect to the G1 Four and G1X Four called "Metal World" using the "Zoom Guitar Lab" software which sounds a lot like the Boss Metal Zone pedal.
Hi ! I'm thinking to get one for playing wah pedal, looper and of course effects :) Is there any alternatife for this price ? It seems best for the price. Do you suggest, is there any downside ?
@@talhamerttufan7140 I don't know about alternatives but it is amazing value for money, even compared to the cost of just one Boss effects pedal... And the small size is great for not taking up much space. Highly recommended!
The major downside is it is a bit clunky to use live and needs more messing around in the menus and settings compared to a bigger multi-effects pedalboard that has maybe 5 individual patch pedals, instead of just the "up" and "down" pedal of the G1X. It is actually very flexible, it just involves changing the settings in the menus - not a problem once you have messed with it for a while but there is a bit of a learning curve with the user interface.
@@bentravis99 Thank you so much for reply. I'm asking much sorry :) I'll use at home. Audio interface might give me better audio quality (im not sure) but i can't change settings while im playing or not easy to loop. Is there noticeble audio quality difference ?
@@talhamerttufan7140 The only other multi-effects unit I have used is an old Boss multi-effects pedal so I can't compare to any other recent products or computer software (if that's what you're asking about). The audio quality is great though and the output is stereo. I am sure you won't be disappointed, especially for the price.
i own one of these and its amazing value. especially since i am a beginner, it fits my needs perfectly.
Hola ola!! I just want to say that your channel, besides entertaining and informing, inspires me to play more guitar and improve my English. Thank you so much for exist
Yeah! Dynamic Duo in action! I kinda got used to seeing Robin in these videos. I have to say, it's quite cool. You guys should think about doing something a bit bigger together. Gotta feeling that could be really awesome... Just saying. \m/
Plz help me I'm confused among Vox Stomplab 2g, Mooer Ge 100,Nux Mg 100 and Zoom G1x Four.....which one is better plz tell me?
Thank you 🙏
100 bucks is worth considerably less than when I first started out and this sounds tons better than I could have bought back then for this price. This unit would have cost $250 when I first started and I still could not have gotten anything this good for even that price. Sure it is transistor and digital. At least it doesn't have a buzz saw or even worse, a thin, crackling tone! Excellent for a beginner or a home jam unit!
I just bought this thing and I'm super excited to play with it
That sounds oddly good for the price. Zoom has somehow done it again
This is a great little pedal, this isn't a fair shake. They really should have taken some time to read the manual and play with the computer software that makes it much easier to program new patches. The biggest problem I have with it is that the buttons are kind of uncomfortable to with with, it's easy to hit both of them by accident and turn on the tuner.
This video was actually amazing, lol. The drum machine stuff was hilarious.
valeton gp 100 will it chug pleaseeeeee reply
please help me to decide zoom g1x4 or valton gp 100
4:23 Ola plays a beautiful chord
anyone know it? not near my guitar
Quem souber me fala, acorde lindo na distorção!
I got one awhile back, to me it sounds way better than my nux-300, job while done zoom
You should have Robin over more often. He is funny. Video made me laugh multiple times.
I have one of these, I love it. Lately I've used it to dial in A. a halfway decent David Gilmour lead tone B. A spot on Flock of Seagulls Delay sound and C. a Love and Rockets
fuzzed out overdrive buzzsaw sound. Once you can edit your own pedal board and patches you're good. The presets are ok. I used the Fuzz overdrive one to play
some Smashing Pumpkins "Cherub Rock." I had to turn the gain on my Vox amp down a lot because the preset was so gonzo, but you can adjust that too. For the money
I paid it's worth the money for messing around at home. The "Barracuda" preset is such fun, too. I don't like that it doesn't have an on/off switch, but the batteries
last a while unless you use it all day long. The expression pedal is ok. It's weird, my Vox VX50 amp has at least three high gain models built-in, they're not bad.
Wow zoom pedal boards, that takes me back 20 years lol
I cant remember what its called pretty sure it was the zoom g1xon? I got one of these instead of a new amp when it was time for me to get my second amp. And i loved it. Used to hook it in the bluetooth speakers or the home stereo and it rocked for what i wanted. Still miss it. Remember the rectifier sound was pretty good if my memory serves me correctly. But, now i have a pod hd. Really hard for me to find good sounds out of it. Go for my normal amps played quietly every time.
Ahahahah I lost it at Black Betty. Also this sounds way better than the last Zoom product I used a million years ago in high school.
I laughed out loud at Black Betty!
The cab sim doesn't really do anything unless you turn the mic on in the cab settings.
That said, Tube Screamer and Recti modern mode with a noise gate to tighten things up sounds pretty friggin good for a $100 pedal.
Maybe this is the best Ola’s video ever. Truly! Enjoyed so much 🤘🏻
6:45 LMAO that was spot on black betty
Didn't have a Boogie, but I believe Satriani had a tune called Satch Boogie.
And the correlation between both? Maybe the attempt on a lame joke. ( He does not use mesa boogie cabinets!) HAHAHA!!
Sounds decent tbh.
Better than alot of high end stuff.
Used to love my zoom g9.2tt with dual tubes and 2 in 1 exp pedal
Your paying friend finally spoke!!
Looks cheap but sounds good. I like that it has knobs and a pedal. I honestly didn't know if Zoom was still around.
I used to use a 1010 i bought in the late '90s and ran thru a red stripe Peavey SP112 i paid $150 for in '03.. This could cover alot of ground.
7:21 when you accidentally discover the sound of Immortal.
ive had my zoom g1x four for about a year now. i got it "used" for $65usd. honestly, even tho i got it used from some guy off of fb marketplace, i swear it was pretty much new and maybe had been tried out, he didnt like it and then put back into all its original packaging and sold to me for $65. since i have had it, i have had an amazing time with my guitars. i have also managed to get a bunch of really good tones saved to it. i deleted all the factory presets because i didnt like any of them and couldnt really get any of them to sound decent enough to use, but i could setup my own from scratch and it really has been a good purchase for me. i use it every day because it really is so useful.
What was the song he’s playing at 4:50?
Ain't talk about love - van halen
BOSS, EHX, Digitech and ZOOM are stellar manufacturers and are really technologically excellent too. I can't help but constantly admire their superb innovations and do also take care of their stuff I have now, with Surge protection too always, because, you never know when they might discontinue an "obsolete" unit that you took for granted and then later realize it is Superior to the newer "better" stuff. It happens all the time.
Hey please do peavey bandit 112!! Its a legend now
A silver stripe bandit 65 with a scorpion 12
It will need some help to get chuggy tho
& the Envoy 110 !
Bandit 112 with a overdrive as a boost in front of it. Is the king of budget amp
@Return of the Native i use mine in a death metal band, maybe you got a lemon??
@Return of the Native Bandit 112's are perfectly useable. If you 'bought one and threw it out the window' all you've really done is demonstrate what a goof you are.
I just bought one of these after years of having the B2.1 for the bass. I think the most important thing to note is the use case for something like this. I primarily use them for when I go to one of my buddy's houses to jam so I don't need to bring a bunch of different pedals. I can have everything I "need" all in one pedal for $100. Does it sound fake like its an obvious emulation? Yes but I can bring it to a music festival or campfire and listen on a set of headphones. Sure an acoustic achieves the same simple mobile effect but that doesn't chug, this chugs.
I want to see a best of budget chugs video, that'd be dope!
Congratulations to Robin for his playing. 🎸🎸🎸👍
for a hundo can't beat it.. just got one for my
nephew so he can see what all the different fx sound like before he spends the next 40 years buying boutique pedals lol
I have a helix and the zoom stuff routinely impresses me. if I were on a budget and needed to save money you'd be hard pressed to find a better option
If Zoom would go to 48kHz signal processing sampling rate they could literally steal the market!
At 100$ though it would not be waste to get two and hook them together.
That was fun
I had like 20 years ago a Zoom multi effect pedal, it was fun to have.
Honestly for what it costs, this thing is pretty damn good. Obviously you won't record an album with it, but for beginners it seems really good. I mean when i started playing these multieffects were just... well... i just say Digitech. :D
It’s a pretty versatile little machine. You can mix effects and create your own patches etc. I looked around RUclips and was able to create the effects of my favorite guitar players, some others I made them myself.
Zoom G3 (1st gen) is total bad ass! 32 bit and they nailed the tube sim on the amps. Lots of tweeking but the results are astounding at $170 that I paid. Put it side by side test w/ a TS808 and Boss Ch-1 and thy nailed those two. Has a ENGL Invader 150 that is bad ass and a Krank Rev 1+ that is out of production that is sweet also.
4:40 Pheriphery - Icarus Live
I love your channel lmao. Didn't expect to randomly see your comment
Sort of OK? It blews my mind how great some of the presets sounds! Wow
Nothing like reading the instructions.
Right? Lol. I like Ola but damn dude tou cant just start twiddling knobs on a multi FX box
All the cabinet mics are turned off in all the factory presets. Turn those on and it sounds light years better.
It's hard to train 2 monkeys with the attention span of two monkeys. lol! 😂🤣🥲😜
That's the difference between a pro & an amateur. Ola instantly recognising that there's a cab simulation going on.
Fastest - chug - ever!
I like the zoom Sound and Video recording stuff. Simple as can get, efficient, good quality. And it is well built, lasts forever.
Will the new purple body come on a type E? That would be amazing.
Why does nobody mention that the G1X slightly distorts the signal passed through it (when bypassed or no effects)? My guitar has humbuckers. When I play loud, the clean sound is slightly distorted. That makes it pretty much unusable for anything serious.
You just go over the max headroom, your pickups may be too close to the strings. Or you dont use a good power adaptor, or your active pickups batteries are almost dead, try 18v or 24v for more headroom, try with headphones to see if its not just the input of your amp that lacks headroom, try a boost pedal before or after the zoom, lower your guitar volume pot a bit, choose a clean amp at least that dont alter your sound too much like fender twin reverb it will not distort
Metallica riff? DEMONITIZED 😂
I know ppl shit a lot on these pedals but a Zoom pedal and a Fender Squier was how I started at 13, this bring back some memories
Hi everyone! I do hope you're having a wonderful and blessed morning. Please be good to yourself and each other and channel fantastic day lovely day and take care and God bless, peace out everyone! 💚
Liked you guys were having fun... I just bought this through Amazon,
its awesome for the money.
Good piece of gear for a beginner player to have at home for different tones and just having fun but that's where it stops. Cool video though and good review.
haha you sound like you are a lot of fun at partys , can you please tell me everything else i am doing wrong in my life ?
@@peteytwofinger go by a fortune cookie it can help you for sure.
Zoom products are really famous here in Brazil, for being good value.
Ola how about the Boss Me 80? have not seen to much chugging about it. !!??
