So I bought one a while ago thanks to this (and a couple of other) video.
I'm loving it but: protip for anybody who buys it: hook it up to your pc and do a firmware update.
Most new units should come with the latest firmware but some don't, it makes a world of difference in sound quality.
The guitar players from Cradle of Filth are actually touring with these ... a Mooer 50 50 3 into a Radar straight to the soundboard and THAT's their whole rig! It's amazing what technology can do these days.
And the great man does it while wearing one of our shirts. Nice one
Godbless you pete your a very good human being😊
The Radar is the best thing since the Screamer.
i own one.its sounds very tiny.i would never recommend
Hi Pete, no matter what you play, your tones are just out of this world, plus your great accurate and melodic playing, a real inspiration my friend, Thank you.
+David Levene Thank you David!
sub 2ms latency is amazing, i can work with 50ms i can tolerate up to a 100ms, but 2ms is like a dream! it's crazy because 50ms is not a lot but you can definitely feel it.
I never heard of acoustic IRs!!! I usually play piezo-equipped electrics and this is a GAME CHANGER for me!!!
I have some good free ones in my Helix, they truly are gamechangers. I got a nice Martin with some bulit in IR technology so I don't need it that much now, but with my other acustic guitars, including classical, the FOH sound is spectacular and no fuss with mics and feedback and phase issues - sweet!
I second John Morris comment. I imagined this for obvious cab simulation, but loading acoustic IRs ? WowoW !
Finally a demo that does this thing justice! The thing that struck me the most is the "less than 2ms latency" which really helps when recording rather than having to go through yoru DAW.
I come to this channel to hear Pete play just as much as I do for the gear. Keep on rockin' Pete!!!!
I've wanted a complete self-contained setup with physical pedals and amp that I could run entirely through headphones, but without having to awkwardly bring a computer into the equation. This is the *perfect* solution for a totally reasonable price. I love it.
have you tried the suhr ACE?
@@Music_is_fun Nah. I actually ultimately ended up with the Nux Mini Studio and has served my needs pretty well thus far.
SOLD! Looking for Suhr reactive load now... and then closer to the heart.... one of the first songs I learned. Loved it.
I bought one of these pedals a lot because of this (and Ola E's) review, but I actually find myself coming back to the video for that incredible jam at the start.
Love the radar. Have used one for a few gigs and was very impressed. I’ve also played around with it in a DAW on-the-go just with my MacBook and sounded great. Good work.
Pete thorn
Julian Patrick Bronte Glenn just wondering, when you go line out to your DAW from your Radar, do you go HiZ as in instrument input or do you go into a regular like input?
David
I used it last friday.
Line 6 Pod HD Pro (4 cable method) with my Peavey Valveking 100 head and into the radar out to PA. Super awesome. Thank you Pete.
Holy crap! $150! That's an amazing deal.
Direct guitar recording revolution.
You are a font of knowledge!
Thanks for the acoustic IR part.
Invaluable
This si the first review that shows the Mooer can actually sound decent I think most others are both user era and not the best sounds going into the thing, it can load custom IRs which means it should be able to get whatever tone an IR you like has. I'd be keen to get one to run to the desk so that bad micing can't fuck up from FOH sound.
I didn't know you had a demo just got mine now and I'm ready to open my mind to absorb all your instructions well played master!
I liked this pedal so much I bought two for a wet/dry/wet set up. I mic the dry signal going into my ‘65 Bassman 2x12 cab but stereo L/R goes to FOH using the 2 Mooer. Unbelievable tone! Thanks Pete. Your work is truly inspiring.
Love Pete, his great demos made me bought the mooer radar. Rock on Pete, what a great man
man, you opened my eyes to the IR´s technology.... i really got impresed... and when I heard the acoustic IR... :-O Wow...
Great video Pete, as always
Awesome Pete, rock on!!
Thank you so much Pete, I just purchased one :-). Love it!
I always look for the videos where Pete Thorn explains a piece of gear; his videos are so great.
This is THE best musician based channel on RUclips by far. Thank you Pete!
Grateful for your existence Pete!!👊
That guy has such a nice voice!
This was an awesome review. Really impressed by the difference in audio quality, especially during the acoustic guitar portion. Thank you!
Had no idea those acoustic impulses existed! My clients will love this. Cheers!
I bought this thinking one day you will do the demo of this one. Very well informed video. No matter how much I thank you it will be less !!! Thank you for being such an awesome musician !!!
Been using an acoustic IR in one of the presets of my Ampli-Firebox for a while. Sounds great!
This unit looks great! Mooer is really working hard to get out of the "cheap chinese clone" market.
Was joggling between Mooer Radar and Ampli-Firebox as IR loader. The Firebox can also act as a backup to my Eleven Rack. Do you own also the Radar? How are the loaded cab IR in Firebox?
Awesome piece of kit, and excellent review! But your guitar playing and great sense of melody is what keeps me coming back to your videos. Just superb, and thanks for the inspiration!
Nice Pete.....Mooer is making some big statements with their gear. Micro amps with 2 channels 3 band eq, volume, gain and speaker emulation ??? Sound great and are dirt cheap. Bang, direct to the board less than the size of two fingers. The times are a changin.....
I have been a guitar player my whole life. I am 67 and began at 16. I have seen all the greats that have passed on. When I was in college getting my music degree we had to read a book called making money making music. You have the time management down. Writing original tunes while demoing products while practicing solos, while learning all your software programs, while being exposed on the internet to many offers to record and tour, while getting free gear, while educating all of us with these new products and possible scenarios. It's a win-win-win-win......etc....I am sure you really need 4 lives simultaneously to take on all the offers.......Why tour if you can just stay home and do endorsements and always have perfect tone....The perfect job for peace and comfort in the music world. You have to be #1 call.... Congratulations on a wonderful career Pete Thorn....
The Rush riff made my day!
Brilliant. Thanks for the video - You know what you're talking about, and have the gift of being able to convey that really well. Great great job, excellent communicator.
Thanks Pete, that was really helpful. I recently bough a Mooer C006 preamp but wasn't very impressed, now I see I also need a Radar to emulate the power amp section. Also, the improvement on recording acoustic guitar is an important reason to use one of these.
When the cab sim on the 006 is engaged there's also a power amp sim going on BUT the IR is bad... With a good IR everything sounds amazing! I have one of these!
I have one they are incredibly good sounding worth every penny
You are a pleasure to listen to. Your technical understanding of equipment is most remarkable. Your musical prowess is inspiring and humbling. Thank you.
Oh, that lead tone... would work in so many different genres.
Well done my friend. Top shelf stuff!
I just heard a Mooer Radar with a Line 6 Pod HD500 & it made that HD500 come to life! I was so shocked!
The sounds you're getting here are so damn sweet!
Oh dude that tele!
Pete that is a nice chunky demo tune. The stereo separation is fantastic on the mix!
Man you are an encyclopedia for us humble guitarists out there haha
picked up one about 6 weeks back...really fun and sounds great for my little studio.
Pete you’re the best: you always answer the right questions. Since I’ve never tried different it loaders I was just wondering if my Mooer Radar can sound just as good as a Suhr, UA, two notes etc ir loader, and you answered me right away, so thanks!
Yup...pretty rad. Also a nice showcase of the Revival Drive
It's 2:26 in the morning and I can play through my valve amp sounding decent with headphones- all thanks to info in this video. Thank you very much :)
USA Strat > Boss Super OD > Peavey valveking 20 (speaker defeat enabled) -> fx loop send -> TC Flashback > Audio interface (line input) > mixIR2 VST = Sweet hair metal noises at any volume- Nice!
The acoustic sample at the end sounds absolutely killer.
By far the best and most thorough review/demo of this thing. Thank you. Now I will buy it.
I just got one of these. So far it sounds awesome using my acoustic with a magnetic pick-up through a Mesa Boogie style preamp / amp sim pedal (Joyo California) Forever clean AF sustain, ala Carlos. I own a Mesa Boogie Recto-verb 25 (1x12 combo) so I know exactly how that sort of thing sounds. The Radar does like an 85 -90% copy paired with the Joyo preamp, and another little clean boost pedal in front of it. By itself it's just the power-amp and speaker/cab simulation, so pre-amp is everything. It's more like a tribute to Mesa Boogie than a dead-wringer clone, but it's good. Damn good. And compact. And you don't have to crank it up to ear-bleed levels to get the proper tube saturation for those squeaky delicious overtones. I'm outputting it through a 50 watt SS Hartke ACR 12 acoustic combo amp, and again, it sounds great at bedroom volumes, and you can crank it up and it sounds even better - until the inevitable acoustic guitar feedback sets in - even with a magnetic pup when yer sitting 3' away from the thing.
Pete the info give in these videos is a goldmine. Thank you so much for sharing your expertise.
Nice demo Pete, can i ask you what you use to keep your hairstyle?
Wow, thanks again Pete, I just purchased th Radar…… elps me al lot… I'm not owning that amount of gear…… it's really one of te present gratest new adventures……
It feels like Christmas every time Pete uploads a new demo video!!
you are such a tasteful guitarplayer and tone wizard Pete!
Thanks Pete for the great playing and showing all the cool uses for the Mooer Radar.
Pete thanks I really learn so much from your videos. I am trying to catch up on electrical guitar music. The language is what I am having to work on. I understand very much about tube amplifiers. I want to advance my home-recording abilities. I am not sure how to understand IR Impulse Responses are over my head. I am a simple home recorder. Trying to catch up on technologies.
I only use N Track for years I am not making money. I love guitar playing electric. Classical Guitarist performer teacher since 1973. Now I have a nice collection of vintage tube amplifiers. I have finally gotten pedals of several varieties. I have been using N Track since its beginning and I have recorded acoustic and electric guitar tracks and 1 with drums. I have a Ludwig drum kit. Also, I have 2 bass guitars. I use various acoustic parlor and regular-sized standard guitars.
Cool tune! I dig the eBow and the Summerland chords!
Love the radar too. What a great piece of equipment at an incredible price point. After the firmware update, the stock ir‘s are nice. Great third party ir‘s make it even better.
Wow! At 12:00...that is THE sound. I have experimented some with running a heavy pedal (Amptweaker) into Two Notes Wall of Sound and the results have been fantastic. Like you, I lament that you can't host room IR's in the loaders. But I have been able to get great room sound simply making judicious use of a reverb plug-in.
Killer demo Pete! I'm definitely buying a Radar for my home studio.
Hi, I saw your comment for this video and I wanted to ask you a question , I'm wanting to get a Amptweaker tight metal pro pedal and run it through a frfr powered speaker like the Headrush , do you think I would need something like this ,a amp simulator pedal , or will the Tight metal pro sound good just running it straight to the Headrush powered speaker ?
@@jamesmiller9823 Thanks for asking. The Tight Metal Pro...like most distortion pedals...is basically just a high gain preamp in a box. Hence, it has no speaker simulation built in. While you could run the pedal straight into a full range powered speaker, it probably would not sound it's best. You would ideally want to run the Amptweaker into an amp/cab sim then into the powered speaker. The Mooer Radar (or something like it) would be perfect for that application. Two Notes CAB M is a new pedal and is another option. It is more expensive, but it has considerably more capabilities. It has a section which simulates a power amp stage and a separate section which emulates a speaker cab. It also has the added advantage of being able to load IR's with a longer tail unlike the Radar.
@@MeTuLHeD Thanks for your reply , thats kind of what I was thinking I would have to do .
I really want a Amptweaker tight metal pro they sound awsome to me, and James Brown is truly the godfather of tone and such a nice guy. I will gladly give him my money when I can afford one.
@@jamesmiller9823 I bought mine used on Reverb and could not be happier with it. I also have a Diesel Herbert pedal. Between the two of them and a handful of plug-ins, I have high gain tones pretty well covered in my little studio. Looking to buy one of those little Mooer pedals for low to mid gain...probably the Power-Zone as it seems to nail those tones so well. Perhaps a Two Stones also.
YES, I’ve been waiting for this video for months, thanks Pete!!
I really like watching you playing guitar ,Its awesome, Thx for this video.
Thank you so much Pete. Your vids are always very instructive, and this one answered a whole bucket of questions I had. Cheers mate.
Triumph! Yes! That was nice to hear! Amazing playing as always, I need one of these little pedals!
Dude, that song is sick! I can't wait to hear your album!
And the men who hold high places
Must be the ones who start...
Jason Bone ooooooooooooooo.........Salesman!!!........sorry wrong song.
jmgmarcus No he' right Closer to the Heart
And how does that relate to a cab simulator pedal.
I've heard about great guitar and bass tone from Radar, but that bits with acoustic is damn great!!! I rarely heard piezo pickup sound that good!!
Closer to the heart!! Great video as well btw!
That's an impressive little piece of kit! Nice playing, to boot!
That acoustic tone was a real surprise. Great demo, cheers :)
A lot of uses and possibilities. Great demo thanks Pete!
Thanks for showing so many options with this unit!
Pete, I purchased one of these to go with my old Eleven rack and I'm using the same IR from Ownhammer I Use with my Axe FX 2. Amazing results!!
Looking for IR to go with my Eleven Rack. I have a terrific FOH sound but need something better when using IEM. Is the Radar a big improvement over 11R? Were you going direct to FOH with your 11R before the Radar?
Mate! I love your reviews, they are so deep and complete... cheers from Brazil
The acoustic sim at the end sounded great, and I never thought of using it as a little headphone box... That's great! Now I just need a reactive load amp for my Splawn...
Wow Pete you're wearing a Cairo Knife Fight t-shirt! A proud New Zealander here, they are an awesome band. Maybe a trip down under would be cool, we would love to have you for some seminars etc!!!
Excellent product. I use it with my power soak Bugera PS1 Line Out and it works very good!
This pedal looks amazing. The only thing I wonder about is the build quality.
The acoustic sound is fantastic
Really tremendous play and demo!
first time seeing your vids. i bought one of these a couple years ago only used the acoustic IR for live shows, omg this does so much more. thanks for the good info!
Wow, you demonstrated it to its full potential. Thank you very much.
I'm of the opinion that tube-head-and-modelled-cabinet is pretty much the best setup going currently for neighbour-friendly recording. Modelling the entire setup just isn't quite there yet for me, and its real failing is the gain section, so it's the best of both worlds.
I love that you refer to the Radar as a "host" for IR's. That alone made this make a ton more sense to me. As always, your videos are fun, informative, and your original music is ear candy.
Great Idea on the accoustic 😲
It definitely sounds great! *shortlisted*
Just what I needed when I needed it. Thank you Pete!
I love you, Pete Thorn.
Hey Pete, been toying around with the idea of picking up some type of IR box and came across this. Pretty impressed with the tones you were getting so it's now on my list to buy now... thanks for the great demo!
Great demo! I may have to get one those for my backup board for FOH. And I've been messing around with with the Martin and Takamine 3 Sigma IRs too. I like to run a Takamine and Martin in parallel in my Helix. Like you say, they don't sound perfect with an electric, but they work. But I've noticed that when using the acoustic IRs, the more sterile or dry the humbucker sounds, the better. And I run them through guitar speakers too. It seems counter intuitive, but an EQ goes a long way in making it sound halfway convincing; just scoop the heck out of it.
Brilliant video, Pete! Awesome demo of this gear!! 😮👍👍
Great video. I'd just like to add that the radar does have a headphone amp built in.
Great demo as always Pete!!!
I liked the raging tube amp saying. Reign the beast in with load box, etc. 👍👌🎸👍
Awesome video Pete. Thorough and answering all the questions I had and brought up new stuff a'plenty 👍🎶
Awesome. Looks like I could get two for a stereo set up for less than the TN C.A.B.
Pete is such a great guitarist
Beermaker2000 thank you!
I want to buy one of these and also a mooer preamp modeling a Peavy 5150 and run it into my practice amp for low volume playing and also for direct recording. I really lome your channel and all the info you're sharing. Playing sounds great.
Wow. Amazing playing and tone
