I’m SHOCKED with the Zoom G6! 

I love the soloist with the pointy headstock! 💪💪💪

I appreciate that!

I mean if the carbon fiber doesn’t sell you on it, I don’t know what will! 😂

@@TaylorDanley you are so right!!! Haha!!

🙌

Glad to help🙌

Between those, id go for the Pod Go!

@@ricardoferreira369 thanks! I'm leaning towards Pod Go too.

@@lucjanszolanski Both are good devices. Taylor made a cool short chugging battle using them. There is also a very comprehensive comparison by Leo Gibson - not with Metal chugs though 😅. My MG-30 pros compared to Pod Go 1) has significantly more flexible FX chain 2) better A/D/A conversion (32 bit, 48kHz vs. 24 bit 96kHz) ...it really has a very good dynamic range 3) Little bit better latency (2ms vs. 3ms... shouldn't make a difference, Ampero has 5ms) 4) has AUX in port 5) Simple drum machine (nice for practice) 6) Cabs with mic positions (Pod Go doesn't have mic positions) 7) is easily driven by battery pack 8) smaller & lighter => more portable 9) much cheaper 10) better/nicer UI (device and PC/Mac software) My MG-30 cons compared to Pod Go 1) less amps/fx 2) no balanced I/O (easily fixed using passive DI on stage) 3) Less foot switches (you can though use a MIDI extension) Tone&Feel wise... I'm spoiled in liking the MG-30 more... but: both are capable of good tones and don't disappoint. Both have very small latency around 2ms/3ms which is significantly less than e.g. Ampero with 5ms. 5ms are not much, but if you e.g. add a wireless system or a pedal like digitech drop 5ms more likely fall over to 10ms which starts to get uncomfortable. My personal opinion: The MG-30 currently is the top level device from NUX. The Pod Go was introduced as a low budget variant of its bigger siblings. So some of the restrictions of the Pod Go are somewhat arbitrary to not cannibalize the more expensive products. At the price point of the Pod Go I would think about saving a bit more and looking for a higher price range. At the price range of the MG-30... its a steal. It will be interesting how a higher class MG-30 successor might look like. I've no real info besides of some remarks or the obvious point that the MG-300 sits clearly on a GE-150 price point and the MG-30 on a GE-200 price point (both NUX being better then the Mooers). So there could be a "MG-3" which would compete on a GE-300 level but be significantly better than that? Certainly not complete in both lists - and the number of points difference should not be counted up for declaring a "winner". It depends on your needs. A feature you never will use will not be a pro and a con which you dont't care the same. E.g. if the amp/fx models in the MG-30 are enough to get anything done - then the fewer models are no problem. Also: better have a few good models than plenty of mediocre ones. There will be further updates for the MG-30 including some amps (like 5051) and fx models.

@@aptfx thanks a lot for your input! I truly appreciate it! Deciding between these two units isn't easy that's for sure. MG30's affordability and price to performance ratio is a huge advantage. I'm a sucker for hundreds of effects. I intend to use the unit with my amp and cab and here's where Pod makes more sense because of the larger amount of buttons and ways you can hook it up up.

Yeah I thought it sounded great!

I think it is what's meant to be

Tbh this should go head to head with the Line 6 POD Go

@@alfianbanjaransari4096 POD Go wins hands down every time just because of the poly pitch shifters that NOBODY else has, which makes it the go-to choice for anyone wanting drop tuning. Cant wait to get mine but damn its expensive. Thinking about pairing it with an Orange Crush 35RT to upgrade my current trash Spider V with the FBV3

@@ohainickify Pod Go doesn’t have poly pitch effects and, according to L6, never will.

Direct

I didn't hear any djent in this video ...

@@Fernando.Sanabria Online dictionaries state: "Djent is a subgenre of heavy metal characterized by low guitar tunings, string muting, and heavy syncopation. Djent also describes the guitar sound used in this style of metal" and "Generally, djent guitarists will leave the six strings tuned to standard (EADGBE), then down tune the lowest string on the guitar to the key that matches the particular song" like at: 4:45? But hey, perhaps my hearing-aid is broken.

@@knowitall1694 Username checks out 🧐

Really? I find most of them intuitive. Just add the thing you want, dial it in and jam! Zoom is the only one that requires 2 or 3 extra steps to get going from scratch.

@@mapuia2722 and double the price

Well it has a touchscreen, and most importantly, the ability to load IRs. Also I believe it can fit more blocks in the signal chain than the G3Xn. If you're happy with the G3Xn though, it might not be worth upgrading.

🤣

Zoom G1 Four has Drums and Looper too.

Yes

@@TaylorDanley thanks.

@@TaylorDanley any chance of a video showing the whammy function? I can't find one anywhere

You're an old guy!

@@alfianbanjaransari4096 Lol, I guess it depends who you ask. But yeah the zoom 505 is an ancient piece of equipment.

@@adamp3272 i borrowed a Zoom 707 from a friend just to learn how to "dial in"some sounds. All I remembered was the chorus was somehow always on. This was 20+ yrs ago 😅😅

@@alfianbanjaransari4096 🤣🤣😀

Back in the day I played a lot of gigs using a Zoom 506 for bass. I still keep it at home just for the "nostalgia thing".

🙌🤘🤘

For real, I bought mine thanks to his videos about it

I'm sure it will be back... just give it time :)

@@ManuSDP hehe... Me too mahnn 🤘🏻

The ampero is still cool, there’s just so much stuff out there and so many requests for new things or things that don’t have much content. I’ll get around to making another Ampero vid though. Hopefully they have the ampero 2 coming soon 👀

I tell you man I went from a pod go to a Fractal FM3 and fractals modeling is a world of difference to helix, all the RU-vid demos do so much editing and EQ matching that you don’t get the real sound that you’ll get from stock stuff

Cheaper than pod go

Nobody tell Josh Scott... 🤫

😂😂😂😂😂😂

Most molders sounds sketchy. Especially in the treble, those Cali's are just basic monitors. Good for cheap.

It did? I really liked what I was getting out of it! 🤷‍♂️🙈

@@TaylorDanley haha I've watched several of your videos now and I guess that's just the face you make when you're listening to it.

No

No

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I honestly just noticed that old Peavey Viper Tube 60 behind you! LOL! How are those BTW? They seem to be had for a steal on Reverb currently.

How about G6 vs Boss GT-1000 Core?
