Hey Paul, I am an old-school 65-year-old rocker and bluesman. After seeing your vids on the GP 200 I have ordered one. This video got me excited about transitioning to digital recording. Your demo here is going to be really helpful to me. Please keep these coming. I love what you’re doing. I also love the Zappa like style of your solo in this piece. Great stuff!
Nice one Paul. Great song and the album will be great too judging by this. Listen up Valeton, sign him up as a demonstrator and send him products asap. Cheers
You do such a good job at explaining the little details. Thanks for this 👍🏼 I’ve had so many modellers over the years and reverted back to amps and pedals but the way you talk about this makes me really curious to give it another go.
Thank you for the compliment. I went back to an amp and pedalboard recently (see link below), but have happily reverted back to the Valeton and Kemper (mainly the Valeton)... so much less of a faff! facebook.com/PaulBondMusic/posts/pfbid0S57Trvu9t2dQWa2GF8VeD9xDq8Sg9MavA4tf85NjoGb8FPPGU2opaWgi5EH9seyul
I’ve watched tons of vids on different multi effects units. You absolutely do a better job explaining and describing the way the units work. Also how to actually use the units. After watching the vids that you have done on the Valeton, I’m sold. Have one on the way. Keep up the awesome work.
Wow. Thanks man. Never would have thought the Mesa could sound so sweet. The Valeton is a great box. I got around the reverb issue by splitting my signal with a Lehle P-Split; one end to the daw, the other to a small combo with a big reverb pedal. Really hope you can squeeze out more of these great videos. Cheers!
I just purchased one of these and your video is just what I was looking for. One thing I like about it is the excellent manual that you can download. I’m not very knowledgeable about amps and cabs and a lot of the effects so it’s really helpful. It’s fun watching you searching for a sound. Many thanks.
I had the Go, returned it. Got this, and still have it. More versatile, similar in sound quality, easier to use, and more output options. And cheaper..
@@PaulBondMusic I have used some earlier line 6 offerings but mostly the ME line of Boss. I just never really liked the sounds or the menu system. Both are excellent with Valeton.
Sorry for the late reply. I've been super-busy since getting back off tour recently. I hope you are still digging your Valeton - I am! Thanks for the compliment on the song. All the best.
Hi Paul from another Paul. As a long serving guitarist I've just bought the LT version of this to fit on my pedalboard. Absolutely love it!!! .. thank you for the videos, a great soure of inspiration :) .. Subscribed
@@PaulBondMusic Tonight I went through and copied your process - rather than download the one you created, I wanted to create from scratch to understand by doing - and then jam along with your song at the end. I'm really keen now to try to create patches to match a range of rock / blues tones. Love your work!
Awesome. Thanks so much for imparting your experience. I'm not a fan of multi FX and almost got rid of this, so your work through example is invaluable. More please!
@@PaulBondMusic It certainly has. My attempts to get on with MFX floorboards started with the Boss ME-6, got burned. Then a Korg valve-something, got burned. Then a Line 6 XT Live, nope. Each and every one of those units had time-based and modulation effects that were fantastic for their time and certainly overkill for live heavy rock/metal application, but the amp models were uniformly dreadful. The GP200 (and family) feels like the first Multi FX that isn't aimed at guitarists in the wedding band industry (talented as they are).
Paul , you are like a breath of fresh air, please review more gear. I have the GP100 so your patches cant be imported, so if you could just give us your basic 'crunch' settings on a picture, that would be great. If you show me yours, I'll show you mine ;) Miff, Yorkshire
Thank you for your compliment. Before I can answer your request directly... use the soldano and keep the gain down. Use the tone controls to shape to your guitar and taste.
Hello Paul, love your videos. I'm just getting started with the valeton gp200, i want to use it for live gigging. In the manual i can't make out how to assign a factory patch or a self created one to the footswitches on the board. I would like to use say 3 or 4 soundpatches and combine them with a few stomps. So for example a clean sound, a lead sound and a ambient delay/chorus sound. And spice those up with boost and chorus or harmonizer pedal. I would like to learn how to set up this device to do so, by using only the device without the software. Grtz Bas from Holland
Sorry I am so late in replying. You have probably figured it out by now, but I like using the software to do the programming... so that it is ready for NOT using the software if you see what I mean.
Thanks for the video. My process for my GP200LT (I also have the JR for the foot pedal) is to eliminate everything except dist and amp+cab, and make a set of presets just including those element. Then for each amp, I turn off the dist and search for the best implementation of the amp/cab selected. Once that is done, I top it off (or not) with the most compatible distortion. The Veleton is incredible for this. Only after that do I begin experimenting with reverb, chorus, etc.... YMMV
They are indeed EXCELLENT value for money. The software with its ease of use, is why I STILL use the Valeton more than anything else in recording sessions.
Hi Paul, I've really valued your videos on the GP-200 and I've recently installed the downloads you posted - very helpful! Would you consider doing videos on using the GP-200 in 'user mode' ie just having it as a pedal-board with 4 pedals, and also another setting it up for use with Acoustic guitar and looper. Keep up the good work!
Mate. Just gound your videos today, excellent reviews and love the walk through!! Please keep them coming! I will be picking this wee unit up shortly. I appreciate the help in decision making for that!
I'm not sold on the valeton,yet. But I'm getting there. It seems like a good unit and it is not too expensive and it seems to be better than my old Boss Gt-8. But what I am already sold on is that album if the rest of the tracks are like this one you can markup one sale already.
Thanks for such a great comment. I can assure you that the GP200 will be a huge improvement on your Boss. Watch this space for more songs from my album... Regards Paul
@@PaulBondMusicany updates on this? Valeton really falls short on community-created sounds, unlike Mooer and others. It's really hard to come by decent sounding community-created presets.
@@PaulBondMusic I play and listen to bands like Pelican, Russian Circles, YOB, Dopethrone, Mastodon. Maybe some kind of heavy tone that sits within those kinds of bands.
Greetings, thanks for sharing your knowledge. This is a great video. The playing a guitar sound great. What is the name of the Seymour Duncan pickups installed in the Strat. They sound great. Thanks again.
The USB works absolutely fine, but it is stuck to only ONE sample rate (44.1), and I tend to run at 48. This creates a mis-match and creates issues. (I'm now wondering if they've updated this... I'll get back to you!).
Hi I'm a 65 Y/o Disabled Veteran finally decided to learn Guitar, and am at the very beginning stages of learning, Acoustic guitar, although I do have a inexpensive Telecaster knock off to explore. I have a Gretch 9200 Boxcar Resonator, and a Epiphone Pro-1 Acoustic. I recently purchased a Gretch 5700 Electromatic Lap Steel because I love the sound from Hank William'sish tunes, to The Pink Floyd Gillmore Lap Steel sounds, and everything in between. Looking at different Multi Effects pedals to use with my Lap Steel and really like this one for its vast array of options. Is there any way you can do a video of the 200 through the 200, and maybe review a 200-Jr. Thanks !
Hiya - first of all... thank you for your service! ... and good on you for taking up the guitar. I hope it's going well for you. I'm a MASSIVE Gilmour fan! I still love my GP200 and the one thing I'll say is: I don't see the point in buying the Junior version. There's not a HUGE difference in price, and the regular GP200 is SO SO good! that said, I've never tried a Jr, so don't REALLY know its limitations.
Love the sound of the preset. Will be trying it out when i get home. Hopefully it wil sound as good with humbuckers, since i don't own any strat or single coil guitars. Maybe in the future, you could A/B your created patches. single coil vs humbucker and what to tweak. Cheers mate
Also find the settings to enable alternate switching and dual switching of FX. Like enabling dst and dly whilst disabling rev for solo work. That sort of thing. Easier than hitting multiple to attain the same.
Wow! What a guitar tone master... best sounding clean guitar I've ever heard! It's amazing! I'm on the way for a GP200 after this... And what a guitar! a beautiful sound from the first stroke just before processing! Can I ask you what kind a pick up you choose for this amazing instrument? Thanks so much and keep posting patches video! Greetings from Italy!
Thank you for your kind words Gianluca. On this video, I was using the 'inbetween' strat sound... Bridge and Middle pickup together. Another Brick in The Wall sound! If you want to know WHICH model of Seymour Duncan pickups... I can't remember! They MIGHT have been 62 style pickups... It's been about 30 years since those Seymour Duncans went in!
I downloaded your preset and then I understand that... good sound but the player is the key! Can you post a preset to became such a good player as you are?@@PaulBondMusic
Love the Valeton stuff your doing, keep um coming! 😎 i'd like to see your take on a really filthy 7 string tone, currently use the Mesa duel modern (cough* rectifier lol) patch with an overdrive, sounds heavy as ball's in F#
Thank you so much - it means a lot. I'll give it my best shot... I only have a TELECASTER baritone that's about as low as I can get ATM - with a single coil pickup, it's not really relevant to what metal players would use, but I WILL do it!! 👺
exacly right i compare it to bos gt 1000 of my student that cost 4 or times more and the valeton trash the boss which sound thin and digital and not friendly use @@PaulBondMusic
I have been thinking of buy a Valeton GP200 ....you are doing a great job on the demo's. I wonder if I might ask for an opinion, am thinking of running it through a powerstation straight into a 1x 12 cab. Do you see any downside to this?
Thanks for the comment. I actually DO see a downside to this! You see, the Valeton either needs to go straight into a mixing desk/PA or it needs to go into a FRFR cabinet. If you are not sure what they are, FRFR cabs are essentially little PA systems that look like a guitar cab. Presuming you are talking about a Freyette Powerstation, the Valeton doesn't need attenuating, and although it'll need amplyfying for gigging purposes, you don't want it going into a traditional guitar amp or guitar speaker. I hope to do a video about all this soon.
@@PaulBondMusic just want to update you briefly. I got the cab and power amp pedal. Hooked it all up and just played without altering any GP200 pre-sets. The volume and clarity is absolutely there, the sound is incredible. I can honestly say this is the best set up I have ever had. I would seriously recommend anyone looking for a cheap versatile rig to explore this.
Hey Asti, John told me how well you rate the Vlaeton GP200, personally I bought a Line 6 Helix LT a few months ago and couldn't be happier with it, I've also got a shit ton of IRs if you want me to email em to you, free of course...one thing I love about the Helix is that I can load 125 IRs which is super handy! I actually tried a Kemper but didn't like it compared to my Helix! I also us a FRFR Xitone Active Wedge speaker...I couldn't recommend it more! Great song at the end!
Yes - the Helix have rave reviews. I've never tried one personally, but I've heard great things. Thanks for the kind offer of the IR's... but like I say on this video... pick one, two or maybe THREE amps that you're happy with... Same goes for cab's! With this Valeton, I'm simply not in need of having thousands of different options. I don't actually WANT thousands of different options come to that! LOL
Hi Paul. I've got my gp200. Just made a start installing the gp200 software on my computer. When I switch on the gp200 and activate the software it takes a full 60 seconds to load up before I can use the software to control the device from the computer.. It also drops out sometimes after 20 seconds.. I'm trying a higher quality usb C cable.. Bit of a disappointing start.. Still got plenty of time to return it.. Best George..
I would say it will almost certainly be the cable. My software probably takes about 10-15 seconds to connect to the unit. Once it's connected, it's solid as a rock.
Paul I've changed to a quality usb C and it's stable. Takes 20 seconds to connect then loads in 2 - 3 seconds.. Good enough.. Much happier now.. Bit of a perfectionist here 😊
Loving it! You are the go to guru for the valeton gp-200 for me!! Please keep them coming!!
Ahhh - thanks SO much. I'm humbled!
@@PaulBondMusic I tried to download the preset. Have others also had a issue?

Thanks so much for your wonderful comment.
Great video Paul. Looking forward to seeing you build a giggable rock tone if possible.
That will certainly happen in the next few weeks.

Greetings, thanks for sharing your knowledge. This is a great video. The playing a guitar sound great. What is the name of the Seymour Duncan pickups installed in the Strat. They sound great. Thanks again.
I'm sorry to say... I have absolutely no idea lol...
They were put in about 25/30 years ago and I don't remember. They DO sing 😎
Thank you for your time and contribution. Would it be possible to make a video working in depth with the looper? Thanks in advance
I will certainly make a mental note of making a video about this.
I'm not into looping myself, but it might be interesting for me to give it a go.
Awesome, thanks for sharing. Is the USB recording of the GP-200 not so great, or why do you record from XLR out with a 2nd device?
The USB works absolutely fine, but it is stuck to only ONE sample rate (44.1), and I tend to run at 48. This creates a mis-match and creates issues.
(I'm now wondering if they've updated this... I'll get back to you!).

Great tutorial with nice enthusiastic mood... BTW which Seymour Duncan single coils do you have on your Japanese strat? THANKS!
Thank you for the compliment.
I honestly don't remember what Seymours are in there... they were put in 25/30 years ago.
Nice song
Thank you so much... hopefully more on the way soon.
Just amazing!
Thanks so much Jonathan 😎
unreal!
Love the song! Is that your vocal track?
Thank you so much... yes that is me singing too!
Awesome song!!!
Awww - thanks so much.
Great demo thank you
My absolute pleasure!
Maybe come up with a complete collection of original settings for clean, crunch, rhythm and solo.
Yes I should do that!
Also find the settings to enable alternate switching and dual switching of FX. Like enabling dst and dly whilst disabling rev for solo work. That sort of thing. Easier than hitting multiple to attain the same.
And using eq as a boost.
Woww, excelent video
Thank you so much Jonathan.
Thanks for the video. Has anyone compared this (or its junior version) to Sonicake Matirbox II?
Sorry for the late reply... did you get a chance to put the two units against each other?
Wow! What a guitar tone master... best sounding clean guitar I've ever heard! It's amazing! I'm on the way for a GP200 after this... And what a guitar! a beautiful sound from the first stroke just before processing! Can I ask you what kind a pick up you choose for this amazing instrument? Thanks so much and keep posting patches video! Greetings from Italy!
Thank you for your kind words Gianluca. On this video, I was using the 'inbetween' strat sound... Bridge and Middle pickup together.
Another Brick in The Wall sound!
If you want to know WHICH model of Seymour Duncan pickups... I can't remember! They MIGHT have been 62 style pickups... It's been about 30 years since those Seymour Duncans went in!
Thaks so mack

ops! Thanks so much...
@@PaulBondMusic
I downloaded your preset and then I understand that... good sound but the player is the key! Can you post a preset to became such a good player as you are?@@PaulBondMusic
Great video any chance you can make one that explains the different footswitch configurations you can do/create with the valeton?
Thanks for the request... I will try my absolute best to get round to doing one about this
Love the Valeton stuff your doing, keep um coming! 😎 i'd like to see your take on a really filthy 7 string tone, currently use the Mesa duel modern (cough* rectifier lol) patch with an overdrive, sounds heavy as ball's in F#
Thank you so much - it means a lot.
I'll give it my best shot... I only have a TELECASTER baritone that's about as low as I can get ATM - with a single coil pickup, it's not really relevant to what metal players would use, but I WILL do it!! 👺
@@PaulBondMusic That should be interesting 😂 good luck 👍
Asti is the man!!
Just great!
Cheers Felipe
amazing video u play very good ..just thinking to sall my old boss processor and buy the valeton
For the money, I still believe that nothing comes close to the GP200
exacly right i compare it to bos gt 1000 of my student that cost 4 or times more and the valeton trash the boss which sound thin and digital and not friendly use @@PaulBondMusic
The sound is great on the phone so should sound good anyway
Absolutely!
I have been thinking of buy a Valeton GP200 ....you are doing a great job on the demo's. I wonder if I might ask for an opinion, am thinking of running it through a powerstation straight into a 1x 12 cab. Do you see any downside to this?
Thanks for the comment.
I actually DO see a downside to this!
You see, the Valeton either needs to go straight into a mixing desk/PA or it needs to go into a FRFR cabinet. If you are not sure what they are, FRFR cabs are essentially little PA systems that look like a guitar cab.
Presuming you are talking about a Freyette Powerstation, the Valeton doesn't need attenuating, and although it'll need amplyfying for gigging purposes, you don't want it going into a traditional guitar amp or guitar speaker.
I hope to do a video about all this soon.
@@PaulBondMusic just want to update you briefly. I got the cab and power amp pedal. Hooked it all up and just played without altering any GP200 pre-sets.
The volume and clarity is absolutely there, the sound is incredible. I can honestly say this is the best set up I have ever had. I would seriously recommend anyone looking for a cheap versatile rig to explore this.
Hey Asti, John told me how well you rate the Vlaeton GP200, personally I bought a Line 6 Helix LT a few months ago and couldn't be happier with it, I've also got a shit ton of IRs if you want me to email em to you, free of course...one thing I love about the Helix is that I can load 125 IRs which is super handy! I actually tried a Kemper but didn't like it compared to my Helix! I also us a FRFR Xitone Active Wedge speaker...I couldn't recommend it more! Great song at the end!
Yes - the Helix have rave reviews. I've never tried one personally, but I've heard great things.
Thanks for the kind offer of the IR's... but like I say on this video... pick one, two or maybe THREE amps that you're happy with... Same goes for cab's!
With this Valeton, I'm simply not in need of having thousands of different options. I don't actually WANT thousands of different options come to that! LOL
@@PaulBondMusiccool!
Hi Paul. I've got my gp200. Just made a start installing the gp200 software on my computer. When I switch on the gp200 and activate the software it takes a full 60 seconds to load up before I can use the software to control the device from the computer.. It also drops out sometimes after 20 seconds.. I'm trying a higher quality usb C cable.. Bit of a disappointing start.. Still got plenty of time to return it..
Best
George..
I would say it will almost certainly be the cable.
My software probably takes about 10-15 seconds to connect to the unit. Once it's connected, it's solid as a rock.
Paul I've changed to a quality usb C and it's stable. Takes 20 seconds to connect then loads in 2 - 3 seconds.. Good enough..
Much happier now.. Bit of a perfectionist here 😊
@@georgewilkins4231 Pleased to hear it's better.
Anyone compared this unit to the MX5 and have any opinions between the two? Im also kind of interested in the Ampero Hotone. Thx
Brilliant 👍🏻🙏
Ahhh - TY so much
Can you make a video about how to record with GP200? :)
I WILL - Several people have asked, so there's obviously a need
