I bought one after watching shootout videos against more expensive units like the Mooer etc. Really good ENGL Savage metal tone, and got a nice Gilmour lead tone by tweaking the DivBell preset. Good value.
My 2c worth. I've had both of these... the NUX is closer to the real amps (I have an AC30TB and the NUX absolutely nails it!). I kept the Valeton though... I need it for small gigs when I need to travel extra light and the NUX has three huge disadvantages for my use.. 1. The build quality is not something I would take out and play with, it's strictly bedroom/studio only, the Valeton can take a beating. 2. The NUX won't allow for effects chain order changes whereas the Valeton lets me move pedals anywhere I want. 3. The Valeton lets me use Stomp mode so I can use the foot switches to control individual or groups of pedals within each patch and then easily swap over to change patches without having to use my hands. As a 'live' pedal the Valeton is superior and the amp simulation quality isn't so great that anyone would be able to tell when playing in the mix with other instruments.
@@DerekPaulGuitar Thanks for the reply! Do both have a pitch shifter? So if I want to quickly play something that is tuned a half or full step down it would work for that? I have a old digitech effects pedal that has that, although it doesn't sound the greatest it's cool just for something quick.
An honest demo. A lot of the others sound like they have some post production trickery going on - your demo seems like a faithful representation of what this thing actually sounds like direct.
Like this channel because you always highlight pedals that are really good but not getting enough spotlight. Unlike other channel that keeps on reviewing pedals that has a lot or reviews in youtube.
Thanks for your demo of this Derek, I’ve been interested in maybe getting one of these for a while now, not that I really need one. The build quality looks decent compared to competitors of similar units, very portable. To be honest if I get one I don’t want it for the drives, amp or cab sims, drums. I’m more interested in using it for the modulations mainly, the reverbs and delays might be of some use and handy to have a number of various alternatives. Nice that you’re able to change the pedal order on this unlike the NUX MG300. Thanks again for your review and excellent work on the visual production with the close up shots of their it and screen, you are probably the only reviewer of these type of units to do decent close ups so you can actually see clear in focus areas, which for me is important to see the proper and full functionality and use ability of the screen and unit and what it can do, unike others who have one static camera shot far away and out of focus who just play all the drives in the unit. Thanks Derek for a good well produced review.
Thank you so much, it’s really nice to be appreciated and get great feedback that the effort I put in helps someone out, once again thank you and stay well! Cheers
Hey man, nice demo, I definitively can see future to that kind of units, it looks like heaven for someone who is learning about fx and don´t want to spend a lot of money or people who wanted to have those sounds but big brands are out of their budgets, I wanna see that shoot out against the Nu-x , cheers mate!
Does either unit have noticeable latency? It's also notable that the NUX MG300 only has about half the presets and about half the effects that the Valeton GP100 has, if my info is correct.
I've been reading and watching reviews of budget multi-effects pedals for a couple of months. I'm looking for a cheap pedal I can travel light back to the States to play in a full band jam with friends. I keep coming back to the Boss GT-1 followed closely by the NUX MG-30 but this little Valeton GP-100 remains on my radar for no other reason than its price point. Any thoughts, folks?
This seems like a better version of the old Line 6 Pocket Pod. Some of the patches sounded eerily similar to it. Not that I'm complaining. I loved the Pocket Pod back in the day. I would like to hear this in a shoot out with the old Pod just for giggles.
Wouldn't that be fun! just to see how far multi effects have come over the years or even if the old pod still sounds as good as it did, it was a great thing!
Something VERY important to consider is that Valeton has a stompmode, and Nux seems not to have one, switching presets live sound odd every time, not a smooth change, so if you need to add a mod for example or boost you can't do that with the NUX unless you switch presets, but Valeton allows for 2 fx assigned to the footswitches for each preset meaning you can boost or add a delay or whatever as if they were separate pedals.
The Valeton actually allows for up to three fx pedals to be assigned to each of the two footswitches, as I mentioned in my comment as a live unit the valeton is far superior to almost every entry level multi-fx pedal out there.
You miss a feature of the NUX MG-30 that no other multi-effects pedal in its price range possesses and that is the scenes feature. Other higher end pedals call it snapshots. This feature allows you to add or create a preset or patch with three options within a scene. For example you can create a string of pedals with one scene with OD off and chorus on, a 2nd with chorus off and OD on (or other effects on/off) and a 3rd with another combination of peddles on and off. With one step you are basically switching an assortment of pedals on and off. That's huge!
@@samsantana And in addition to my comment about the scenes feature of the NUX MG-30, it also comes with an addition two switch accessory to assign individual effects to. The Valeton isn't in the same league as the NUX.
Crazy idea: Buy both the Valeton GP-100 and the older & cheaper NUX MG-100, then chain them (guitar -> NUX -> Valeton). I've not seen many videos of people chaining multieffects pedals but can't think why it wouldn't work. It might make for an interesting video.
Thanks for making a review on this unit. You went through the expression pedal settings very briefly thou. Do you happen to know if you can set the expression pedal to be used as a wah pedal? Thanks
Hey Derek, I went ahead and picked one up and so far I like it, but would happen to know if there is any way to navigate through banks in pedal mode instead of having to turn the knob to do so? Maybe another kind of pedal or something could be used? Thanks
i recently bought one Gp 100. has a lot a features, but I ve found that it was impossible (at least for me) to sync drums and my playing using the looper. when you hear the first bars is ok but in very little time as the loop phrase keeps on repeating (bass or guitar)it goes out of syncro. My Zoom B1on worked perfecty doing tha same thing. Somebody experienced something similar?
Hi Derek great video! a question in this device can you perform Preset rotation? for example go from 23 to 47 using the two buttons of the device, greetings from Mexico 🇲🇽
Hello good sir. I am mostly interested in the looping function... Which one would you recommend between the valeton gp100 and the nux mg300?? Thanks, great channel
@@DerekPaulGuitar Thanks for your response. Can i save the loops on both of them? I will be using an amp that has its own IR's so i'm mostly thinking about some distortion/overdrive and specially Looping.
I bought this pedal which I do really like it. But I’m having a issue with mine my display screen went blank white screen but it still works I can still use it with the software on my computer so I can see the display. I also contacted VALETON about the issue with the display screen on my pedal going blank white screen they told me to replace the power supply I did and still didn’t fix my screen problem so I’m stuck with the pedal just can’t see any of pedal effects but I still like the pedal it’s really cool great video 👍😎🎸🤘
Hi, I have reviewed around 8 guitars both acoustic and electric on my channel, just one amp though as I only have one :) if I get another one which I plan to do in the future I’ll certainly review it, cheers
@@DerekPaulGuitar My GP-100 makes no connection with the software in windows 10 A Drivers problem Pffff Updating has no result It says you already have the latest and best updates
@@DerekPaulGuitar Yes but they made stupid sugestions about buying a different cable and start up the GP-100 before connecting to the computer The computer says driver problem
Latency is a thing that i'm really worried about. I have a focusrite solo so i wouldn't need to use it as an interface and ill be monitoring directly. is there any noticable latency in that scenario?
Can this gp 100 be hooked up with a boss katana mk 2 50? Didn't realise to after purchasing the katana 50 mk 2 that a looper can't be connected th mk2 50 only the 100. So that's why wondering how to connect thus gp 100 to the katana 50. Thanks
I have put a video together shooting them out which will be out in the next weeks :) the NUX does have amazing algorithms though, I’ll let you decide in the video as they are both fantastic units, cheers 🙌
The looper is quite hard to work with compared to boss rc 3. I can't seem to get it to loop on measures...? Also.. Is there any way to replace or customize the drums? The drum sounds are really not to my taste, and the patterns are too busy.
I think the Valeton is better than both Mooer and Nux because of its construction. The Nux is plastic, not really built for the road and I had a mooer ge200 and one of the footswitches gave up the ghost..... at a gig! Cardinal sin! I lost faith in all Mooer gear at that point. I have done 3 gigs with the Valeton since getting it a month or so ago (pre Covid I would have done 15 gigs with it by now!) and it’s immense. I put celestion IRs in it and it just sounds perfect thru the PA
@@Docksidestudio1 nice man! thats good feedback, the metal construction should certainly stand the test of time good to hear you are gigging with it and have some cool IR's in there, and anything failing at a gig is a nightmare! cheers!
Hi Derek hope all is good with you? I’d like your opinion please, I’ve been looking at this and other similar units for a while and for some reason I really like this unit and it’s overall features for the price. I am able to get a brand new one of these units for £92 To me seems like a very good price for what you’re getting and the quality seems pretty good. Do you think it’s worth getting one for this price? Many thanks Steve
@@DerekPaulGuitar I’ve just seen an unused one of these on EBay has only been opened for £75 so thought I’d make a cheeky offer of £50 and surprisingly won it!! Pretty sure it’ll be well worth £50 unsused or not.
@@DerekPaulGuitar yep! I was very surprised they accepted such a low price especially with it saying only opened never used, guess I’m just lucky for once in my life. For £50 you can’t lose, from all the reviews I’ve seen it looks like a great unit packed with plenty of FX, really I just want it for modulation FX but I’m sure I’ll make use of the delays, verbs and drives/distortion/fuzz’s, I’m looking forward to receiving it next week and giving you my view on it. Obviously you can’t get one decent pedal for that price so I know I’m on a winner! Thanks Derek I’ll keep you posted mate, take it easy, regards Steve
@@thedeadxtras9927 nice Steve, I wonder if it was from someone with a RUclips channel? Review it and sell it sort of thing, my nephew has mine, he writes songs and is just getting into guitar and I said this unit will work perfectly for you, has all the effects you’ll need to get going, he loves it
@@DerekPaulGuitar They reached back this morning already: "Hi there, Thanks for your email. Reamp can be done by using sound card to send signal to GP-100. Thanks for your support" I ordered the unit right after.
Kind of weird, but most players use the bridge position pickup for high gain sounds and the neck position pickup for clean sounds, but you did it the opposite 🤷♂️😏
True story! I just much prefer position 4 over 2, I’m sure it would change in a live situation, but for home use I love the neck and middle, cheers for watching.
They both have great clean tones! but they have different features, i'm doing a video to shoot them out, keep an eye out for that one as it depends what you require as a whole from the units :)
If you have to deal with clean tones I think that you would go with NUXMG300. It has Roland jazz clean and fender deluxe reverb amps . The valeton doesn't have those amps. I suggest you to take a look at the manuals to get the amp list of both the devices.I did the same and it was very helpfull.
@@DerekPaulGuitar I mean that when you lower the volume pot, with the intention of reducing the gain of some distortion, how does the valenton respond?
The Valeton has acoustic and bass patches but of course you could use the MG300 as a preamp for acoustic too, just chose no amp and use the EQ effects, cheers
If i dont ask ill never kno , any relation to Les , Les Paul tht is . Paul as a last name ,, only kno of 1 other person witb Paul as last name . Hes from Texas . And mayb i shld get out more . Lol . My great grand parents came over frm Englamd . Lots of different names made it to the states and lived on , just curious more than anything . If i was think id b a lil proud of it . Anyway , love the channel .
No relation, would be nice wouldn’t it! I must say that since moving to the US the names here are so varied, names I hadn’t heard before and find difficult to pronounce if I read them, the UK is easy, Smith, Jones, Roberts etc :) and thanks man, I appreciate that
I think Les Paul's real last name was Polfuss or Paulson or something like that, I'm sure a search would cough up a quick result, but I've got to make coffee first, ha!.
lol, that's ridiculous, I guess you wouldn't be able to opine on your choice of car unless you are professional driver, or whether you like certain food unless you are a chef. Get off your high horse mate I've seen one of your videos and if those guitars you are 'presenting' are going to make me play like you I'd say thanks but no thanks.
What a horrible thing to say.Who are you? Maybe you think you're the next Steve Vai? There are all sorts of players on here, he was simply showing us how the GP100 works. Yneed to stop being a critic, you're nothing special trust me!
I bought one after watching shootout videos against more expensive units like the Mooer etc. Really good ENGL Savage metal tone, and got a nice Gilmour lead tone by tweaking the DivBell preset. Good value.

@@victoronline5840 thanks for the kind words Victor, and thanks for that :)
@@DerekPaulGuitar They reached back this morning already:
"Hi there,
Thanks for your email.
Reamp can be done by using sound card to send signal to GP-100.
Thanks for your support"
I ordered the unit right after.
@@victoronline5840 ah excellent, at least we know, cheers Victor and enjoy the unit :)
Kind of weird, but most players use the bridge position pickup for high gain sounds and the neck position pickup for clean sounds, but you did it the opposite 🤷♂️😏
True story! I just much prefer position 4 over 2, I’m sure it would change in a live situation, but for home use I love the neck and middle, cheers for watching.
I’m sorry the NUX sounds better . Periodt! IMHO 🤘🏾✊🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Thanks for the comment man! 🤘
does this need a computer? or can it plugged into my amp like a regular pedal?
You can use it plugged into an amp as well
how about those two compares to Mooer GE 150?
That’s a good shout, I’ll have to see if I can get the GE 150, cheers!
I am looking for more clean tones. What do you suggest Nux mg-300 or Valeton GP 100?
They both have great clean tones! but they have different features, i'm doing a video to shoot them out, keep an eye out for that one as it depends what you require as a whole from the units :)
@@DerekPaulGuitar Will be waiting for you video.
Rahila Qureshi no worries man! Cheers!
If you have to deal with clean tones I think that you would go with NUXMG300. It has Roland jazz clean and fender deluxe reverb amps . The valeton doesn't have those amps. I suggest you to take a look at the manuals to get the amp list of both the devices.I did the same and it was very helpfull.
Fabio A. That’s such a good shout, cheers Fabio
this effects processor has a good relationship with treble bleed?
Sorry, not sure what you mean?
@@DerekPaulGuitar I mean that when you lower the volume pot, with the intention of reducing the gain of some distortion, how does the valenton respond?
Ah I see, yes it responds really well and cleans up when you lower the volume, thanks for clarifying
❤ROCKIN 🎉❤
Def Leppard :) You and I would be mates playing in the same cover band :) Best Regards
One of my favourite bands of all time :) yes!!
Hi mate can please feature acoustic tones and sets thank u so much.
Hi mate, I no longer have the units, donated them to guitarists who needed them, cheers for the comment!
@@DerekPaulGuitar wow..,.. Ur kind. ....,... I hope that someone can gave me too...
Is that MG 300 and gp 100is OK and fine in acoustic preset..
@@sepramusic5803 the Valeton was good and the MG300 firmware has just been updated to include acoustic patches but I haven’t heard them yet, cheers
@@DerekPaulGuitar ok I hope u do some videos of acoustic of nux presets...... Thank u.
What's the chord progression for that "Clean Patch" tone?
I think it was E F# A :) cheers
Are ether of of these good for bass or acoustic?
The Valeton has acoustic and bass patches but of course you could use the MG300 as a preamp for acoustic too, just chose no amp and use the EQ effects, cheers
🤘
I am actually really confused nux mg 300 or valeton gp100 what to buy😭😭😭😭😭😭😭pls help
Well! I’ll shoot them out next week so look out for that video 😁👍
If i dont ask ill never kno , any relation to Les , Les Paul tht is . Paul as a last name ,, only kno of 1 other person witb Paul as last name . Hes from Texas . And mayb i shld get out more . Lol . My great grand parents came over frm Englamd . Lots of different names made it to the states and lived on , just curious more than anything . If i was think id b a lil proud of it . Anyway , love the channel .
No relation, would be nice wouldn’t it! I must say that since moving to the US the names here are so varied, names I hadn’t heard before and find difficult to pronounce if I read them, the UK is easy, Smith, Jones, Roberts etc :) and thanks man, I appreciate that
I think Les Paul's real last name was Polfuss or Paulson or something like that, I'm sure a search would cough up a quick result, but I've got to make coffee first, ha!.
@@LTJR. Haha i never knew that, i googled it, Lester William Polsfuss
Mooer GE 150 is another one.
Yes! thats a real competitor at the moment, great unit!
is it good for metal
It has swine good metal patches yes!
GP 100 is much better than MG 300
Thanks for the vote!
Shame they keep crashing on Windows 10
Sorry to hear that man!
Ouch the AC simulator!!!
you have to learn how to play first
lol, that's ridiculous, I guess you wouldn't be able to opine on your choice of car unless you are professional driver, or whether you like certain food unless you are a chef. Get off your high horse mate I've seen one of your videos and if those guitars you are 'presenting' are going to make me play like you I'd say thanks but no thanks.
What a horrible thing to say.Who are you? Maybe you think you're the next Steve Vai? There are all sorts of players on here, he was simply showing us how the GP100 works. Yneed to stop being a critic, you're nothing special trust me!
@@batphink2655 Yeahh bla bla bla !!!
