For the money it looks good. Player needs vary, so will mileage. I really like the dedicated midi in out. It allows for it to be used remotely without a host. With a fancy controller. The balanced out is SPIFF!.
I have owned the Valeton GP-100 for a couple of years now and am quite happy with the few patches I have set up...but I think it's time for an upgrade (well it is Christmas season after all )
Very impressive yet again modern tech basically means dial in what ever you want, go with the presets or build your own sound. Once you have something like this you basically don’t need anything else. Some fantastic sounds throughout and a drum machine as well to give you a beat to play along with which is a lot nicer then just a metronome 👍 result
One thing that would be great to understand when you do the full review is how guitars and pick ups effect the programmed sound. I have found before with these multi effects pedals that some times the sound you get is the sound and the guitar almost becomes irrelevant and the cheapest or most expensive will sound exactly the same. You tend to do this anyway but would be really interested for this one what the impact is.
Would love to see some amp/cab sim comparisons to any real amps and/or cabs you have in the studio. A shootout with a Line 6 HX Stomp would be a good show too.
@@TSFAHTPS Thank you!! Question with the Valeton 200LT, is there a latency or noticeable gap when switching patches? Let's say a clean sound to a dirt patch?
That’s what I’ve had for the past few years and haven’t had the need to upgrade but at this price I might. I just worried it’s basically the same thing lol
Hil! Love your playin! Have you tried to connect valeton directly to any solid state amp like laney, marshall, without using the IR? how does it sound? Does it sound fat like when using an IR on a monitor or thin? Thanks!
At $280.00 USD what's not to love. Buy one. If you find you are nuts about modeling then leap all the way up to an AXE FX III or a Neural Quad Quartex and skip the wannabes in between.
I really wanna try one out but am also curious of you guys trying g a nux mg30 or mg400 and for the price of the there pedals are good for the money. But curious what you guys would say.
@@TSFAHTPS oh wow the other pedals too are flamma if you haven't checked them out. They work with almost everyone and they got multi effects and individual pedals.
Hi mate the NUX MG30 is also an excellent sounding multi fx, great user interface easy to use and the App software is excellent. NUX effects sound excellent due to their TSAC technology, I’ve had a few NUX pedals all built really well, sound fantastic and great prices, slightly more expensive than many of the budget pedal competitors, it’s definitely worth paying that little bit extra for the NUX quality. I’ve not tried the MG400 but I’m sure it will also be great as it’s the newer big brother to the MG300 which is also an excellent sounding unit. You can’t go wrong with NUX. The Valeton GP200LT is a brilliant solidly built, user friendly and excellent sounding multi fx, for its low price it’s just as good as many much more expensive competitors units, if you want the built in expression pedal, a few more foot switches and more outputs and don’t mind spending an extra £60-70 then the GP200 big brother is fantastic and well worth its price. As for Flamma I have a few of their pedals which are all also excellently made, great sounding pedals at low prices. Flamma do multi fx units, the FX100 again great for its price, the FX100 they make for Harley Benton which is the DNA fx Git, and the newer bigger Flamma FX200 has more foot switches & features and good price for what you’re getting, again the supply to Harley Benton as the DNA fx Git PRO, exactly the same Flamma units with the Harley Benton brand logo. All great units for the money, you honestly can’t go wrong with the Valeton, NUX or Flamma multi effects units for there price.
So, if all you had was an amp to play this through- can you turn off the cab sims and do so? I'm eventually going to buy a set of monitors for my "studio"- for lack of a better term- experiment would probably be more accurate- but right now a tube amp is what I have. It is a more modern tube amp- the Blackstar club 40- emulated output on the rear, built in attenuation, digital reverb, and overdrive- with a parallel fx loop- if that matters.
Looks like plenty of fun!!! I'm wondering what the differences are between this LT version and the GP 2000 (non LT). This appears to be like a & 'lite edition' or is this an updated version? (I've not done any research 🤔). We are getting to the stage now where these chips are getting that good at such low prices they are almost becoming a no brainer, at the very least for players just getting into things. You can pretty much purchase this for the price of a single 'premium' pedal or even get some change. We talk about how they sound, but typically they are compared to the pedals/amps they try to emulate, when really how they sound is just that, not by way of comparison. They either have useful sounds that a given player desires/can make use of or they don't. It matters little whether the recreations are spot on or have their own sound. I'm really not sure what to think as these units become significantly cheaper and better simultaneously. Will there be a time in the near future when physical pedals are basically a thing of the past? It strikes me that 'we' are going through a war akin to CD vs vinyl. CD took the honours with the almost full demise of the vinyl LP for decades, only to see the vinyl revival over the past number of years (and if you're an even cooler hipcat - cassettes 🤣). Looking forward to the full review here. Thank you Gabor. 😎👍
As far as I know the only real difference between this one and the “big” GP-200 are the extra foot switches and the expression pedal - and a few different I/Os in the back! It’s crazy how good these “cheap” brands are getting - and I also think that there is not much point in comparing it to a real Marshal or Boogie or Fender Amp…does it have good, usable cleans, edge of breakup, and gain sounds…that’s much more important to me than how close it gets to emulating a JCM800
I’m pretty sure you can buy it directly from Valeton. If you do a quick Google search you’ll find a bunch of online shops that sell them…you can find it on Amazon too
From memory I’m pretty sure they are balanced TRS outputs so it’s basically the same as XLR…just get a short TRS to XLR cable, that’s what I do with my HX Stomp and ToneX pedals when I play live…just a short cable to convert the TRS cable to an XLR and then you can plug a standard XLR cable into that! Or just get a long TRS to XLR cable
WTF- do you have to waste so much time demonstrating your skills running up and down scales with distortion sounds. I wanted to hear if there were any chorus/flange sounds with the Valeton GP-200LT also how (or if) you can assign each footswitch to specific sound.
Just got one as my first guitar pedal and fully aware i'm lucky to be living in times where tech this good is this cheap.
The board is best used with the software...such an amazing piece of musical contraption 🎸🎸🎸
Valeton Rocks
out of the box with awesome tones!!!!
Please upload a video using the diezel amps.
Great value! valeton part of Hotone who’s ampero Multi-Effects is where the GP200 LT gets it’s sounds from!🙂
For the money it looks good. Player needs vary, so will mileage.

No hardware / software issues? Does it work well.
@@accentontheoff Still using the GP-100..solid as a rock..saved me $$$ from buying many amps I lust for
@@tonray9395Good to know thanks.

I’m very interested in comparing it to the HX Stomp too…I’ll definitely do a video with that!!
I hope you can demo the Zoom G2Four as well.
I’ll see if I can get my hands on one…I really want to check out the new MultiStomp Pedals too
@@TSFAHTPS Thank you!!
Question with the Valeton 200LT, is there a latency or noticeable gap when switching patches? Let's say a clean sound to a dirt patch?
How does this compare to some of the less expensive ZOOM pedals?
That’s what I’ve had for the past few years and haven’t had the need to upgrade but at this price I might.
I just worried it’s basically the same thing lol
Thats pretty neat
can you show how to use midi controller connect to gp 200 lt ? for footswitch thx before
Hil! Love your playin! Have you tried to connect valeton directly to any solid state amp like laney, marshall, without using the IR? how does it sound? Does it sound fat like when using an IR on a monitor or thin? Thanks!
Can we use 3 footswitch for bank and 1 for tap tempo
Yep..,we go through that in another video on our channel
Hello and thanks. Could you recommend an expression pedal that I could use with this.
Any expression pedal should work
@@TSFAHTPS Super thanks.

I agree, value wise it smashes the pod go, headrush, maybe even Line 6 HX, and is ahead of its direct competitors (e.g Mooer).
I really wanna try one out but am also curious of you guys trying g a nux mg30 or mg400 and for the price of the there pedals are good for the money. But curious what you guys would say.
The Australian NU-X distributor doesn’t seem super keen to work with us…but I’ll see if we can get a hold of one of them

Yeah you can turn the amp/can sim off and just use it as a multi fx unit - I’ll make sure to include that in the full demo
If you have an FX loop in your amp, keep the pre-amp sim on, turn the cab sim off and plug the output of the GP200LT into the FX return of your amp.
Looks like plenty of fun!!!

Wszystkie wzmacniacze i przestery brzmią bardzo podobnie. To tak jak gdyby na jednym albo dwóch wzmacniaczach wykręcił kilkanaście różnych brzmień
Mine came with a U.K. power supply
Where can you buy this ?
I’m pretty sure you can buy it directly from Valeton. If you do a quick Google search you’ll find a bunch of online shops that sell them…you can find it on Amazon too
Even at Amazon :)
Can you put multiple distortion or other pedal in the chain at a time ?
Yes, CTRL do this.
No you can't, you can only have one of each block at a time. You can, however, add a Boost in the Pre block, this will give you extra drive
@@stutty1400 I know this, I bought the lt. You can see he gets right back to you, posted this a year ago.
If it had XLR I'd have gotten it

The GP200 has XLR outs, this model (GP200LT) has balanced TRS outs, so you're losing nothing :)
why does nobody demo this in front of an amp
Bro. 7 mins in and your taking about the plug in and the most obvious buttons like a 5 yr old gets that part. You gotta move along man
WTF- do you have to waste so much time demonstrating your skills running up and down scales with distortion sounds. I wanted to hear if there were any chorus/flange sounds with the Valeton GP-200LT also how (or if) you can assign each footswitch to specific sound.
Because its THEIR video and channel and they can do whatever they want with it? What on earth are you whining about, you big baby.
Can you use the 4 footswitches to toggle between 4 different patches?
Yes! It's possible.
