Nux MG-100 clean and crunch sounds 

Cheers Eddy :)

Hope you enjoy it! I'd like to hear your opinion :)

Glad it helped! Thanks for watching Gearfacts :)

The display is about the same level of detail as the Zoom but seeing it in colour does help. Gearfacts

I've had the Zoom pedal before, and have just purchased this one. It seems to have all the features, a better display, more knobs/easier controls, and a wah pedal. All for about the same price. Zoom is still a decent pedal though

@@curtheisler1200 Does this Nux Mg100 have compatible software or app? I think the Zoom does

No, it can't do that. The switches will only go up or down to the next fully-programmed patch. Thanks for watching Gearfacts :)

For classic sounds, choose the Nux. For crazy experimental sounds, choose the Zoom. Thanks for watching Gearfacts :)

Definitely this over the GE100 :) Gearfacts

Sorry just seen that you already answered similar question

sealedforproctection make them to sound equally, not equal in volume but equal in loudness so changing will be less noticeable

Yep :) Gearfacts

I couldn't discern any difference at all. Gearfacts

It's one of the best you can get for around $100. Great sounds. Thanks for watching Gearfacts.

I used 9V Ac-Dc Adaptor 500mA but the battery level on this decreased one and sometimes 2 bar in continuous playing in two hours. Is there any something wrong on this device? please help...

You can change in the menu for type of battery to give accurate reading

I got mine for about $60 and it’s not bad at all.

It does have a whammy effect, not sure about the looper but if you google "MG-100 pdf" you'll see the manual.

Gearfacts thanks for the info.!

Yeah I think you could make it do the job, even if you have to play a harmonic no the fifth fret when tuning that low string. It'd be fine. Thanks for watching Gearfacts. :)

i would try experimenting with the compressor effects. GF

Unfortunately, no. It just has a basic delay time setting like on an ordinary pedal. Thanks for watching Gearfacts!

If it's a tap tempo option then can't a dotted eighth be manually tapped to whatever tempo in use? (Tempo set Via included drums / metronome)

No

haha nakalalito

The only answer is 'no' I'm afraid. All the patches are laid out in sequence, so you have to arrange your sounds in order, right next to each other. Sorry! Gearfacts

Gearfacts ooops, so this reduces its on stage effectiveness big time, don't you think? And thanks for ypur reply :)

Well I don't know about 'big time' but yes I agree there is an issue there. I think guitarists who have this concern are more likely to choose a unit that has more pedal switches on it. My favourites are the Line 6 PodXT and the Boss ME-8B. And you're most welcome for the reply, it's good to get comments that discuss a valid point :)

Gearfacts I appreciate your suggestions. And thanks alot for sharing your thoughts :)

Gearfacts plus one more question. Does the zoom 707-ll possess this quality of priority switching?

Any classic rock suits this pedal well I think. Excellent for Hendrix.

Happy to help out! Switching between clean and distortion requires setting up two almost identical patches side by side (patches 12 and 13, for example). One with the right amount of distortion and one with the right amount of 'clean'. Most other effects in each patch should remain pretty much the same, to keep it sounding consistent. When the two consecutaive patches are set up you can just switch between them using the left/right pedals. You can't switch distortion on/off within a single patch unless you are in edit mode and you use your fingers to operate the buttons, which isn't really practical. Thanks again for watching :)

@@gearfacts Hey! What do you mean by left/right pedals? I only see one wah pedal on the right. Also to switch between clean and distorted, I would just press down the wah pedal? Wouldn't it do wah or volume instead? Or do you mean to press down the fat square button on the right to switch to the clean preset you created next to your distorted preset? Thanks alot!

For classic sounds I think the Nux is better tbh. A lot of people will argue but frankly I thought this pedal was amazing for its price. It's just under-sized and ugly. Oh and don't stress too much about noise, if you give such concerns too much attention it'll get in the way of the creative process :) #gearfacts

I don't think there's much better out there for under $100. Maybe the Zoom G1FOUR? :) #gearfacts

Yep you sure can. Gearfacts

Yes :) Gearfacts

It’s been a long time since I’ve used it, but I have a feeling it did have a noticeable pause

G1xon for experiments in sound, MG-100 for classic tones :) GF

Are you saving your patches properly? It doesn't save automatically like the Zoom pedals, you have to manually store your changes.

Yes. Everytime i make some changes to the patch i always saved it.

The only way I know to bypass is by setting all the effects to "off" then saving that as a patch just for bypass. It's not a perfect solution, but the MG-100 isn't really designed to be perfect haha. Good deal for $70 though, definitely. Thanks for watching Gearfacts :)

I'll be making a comparative video very soon, as many people have this question :) #gearfacts

They have the same sound processor, so choose the one that looks/feels better for you. Personally I think the MFX10 has much nicer design and appearance, but is it worth the extra money? Like I said - they sound exactly the same :) Gearfacts

Hi Brian - When you save your settings the chosen drum beat should save as part of that overall preset. I think - I haven't had this pedal for along time. Feel free to ask questions, others on this thread may also chip in with some ideas :) Glynn

Many thanks for swift reply Glynn - how do you switch between all those settings -wish we could see the controls your using - could you poss. do a vid showing whats going on -I won't use mine because can't understand setting -bit 'thick' maybe -HELP SOMEONE PLEASE

Definitely the Nux, it'll be way better for your style. 100% certain :) Gearfacts

Hey. Thank you very much..This Vintage Crunch caught my attention, it is just what end 50s had. Jim Reeves and Patsy Cline. lot of Echo. i don t know if they had Reverb or Delay back then. but it is more or less the same. good for a solo part for Lovesongs. Thank you again.

Yes (I think) you can assign the pedal to gently add delay or reverb

They sound identical, both exceptionally good for the price. But this one (MG-100) has an expression pedal which is an undeniable advantage. They both need a major upgrade in the aesthetics department! Thanks for watching Gearfacts.

I think you have to start again :) #gearfacts

I'd chose the Nux personally, but here's a video I made comparing the two, so you can decide what suits you best: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-cDXeU5N3oEs.html

@@gearfacts thank you very muchh

I liked the Nux more, personally.

It has a normal stereo headphone socket (6mm).

Virtually nothing, the tone is the same. The MG200 has no expression pedal though #gearfacts

@@gearfacts Thanks Gearfacts for the response

Yep that'd work pretty well. Some of the amp sims might sound a bit weird, but yeah I say go for it :) Gearfacts

Yes, the loop is not time-synced with the drums. It comes down to millisecond timing by the user unfortunately.

hi does it stay in sync without the lòoper.can u record the guitar with drums? and if so stay on sync cheers...

Nux MG100 for me personally.

@@gearfacts hi , and for quality effect ? G1 four or nux 100 ??? Thanks

@@squayssan5352 Nux100, in my opinion

@@gearfacts thanks 😊

I'd choose the Nux personally :) Gearfacts

I think you do require an interface, but it might be worth checking the specs online.

Yep it has noise reduction. Gearfacts

Yes, you can use (I think) 8 at once :) #gearfacts

@@gearfacts wow! But can you download patches and if so from? where

Also does it have octaver, whammy, wah and fuzz?

Yep that's down to me... Not sure what happened there :) #gearfacts

This one, the Nux MG100.

@@gearfacts Thanks for your reply. Right now I'm leaning towards the Mooer.

The 355 is more "serious" I think. The Nux is more casual and fun, more 'untamed' if you like. Depends if you are a guitarist who wants to create 'prefect' tone (Digitech) or a guitarist who just likes to turn it up and have a wild time (Nux)

Fair point, the knobs were indeed out of picture as I used them. Basically they correspond with what's on the screen - if there are three knobs visible then they'll respond to the three physical knobs as if the picture was the actual pedal. It feels un-natural, for sure. As for assigning the expression pedal, I have to admit I can't remember as this video is from a long time ago and I don't have the pedal anymore. My strategy was always just to find a similar patch to what I wanted, and edit from there. Sorry I couldn't be more help than that! :)

@@gearfacts Yes, understood. I wanted to assume that, from the start, so, all is good!

Hi, press SAVE.

The Nux MG-100 is way better than the Zoom G1x. Thanks for watching Gearfacts :)

Great! thank you so much for your reply. :))))))

Nope, it's not in the manual. Try turning it on while holding down various buttons maybe

@@gearfacts I tried 😟 nothing happened

Yes

Yes, absolutely.

Yeep, they're soooo cheap now and still good.

It does have various blues presets. And as stated in the video I think this pedal is the best in its class, so for the price I would have I say yes - it will give you good quality blues tones at a comparatively low cost. Thanks for watching Gearfacts!

thanks for your reply ,was just about to order the Boss BD-2 Blues Driver @ $139.00 cdn on amazon when I came across this awesome pedal selling for $188.00 cdn ,I believe your video and reply helped with my decision ,thanks mate and Merry Christmas.

I am just about to order it from amazon but does not say if the 9v adaptor is included or not ,was yours included?

tony mediati great feedback, glad the video was helpful for you. Thanks for watching Gearfacts!

Yep :) GF

Yep, a lot of people want looping :) #gearfacts

yep

@@gearfacts headseat is not working to my nux mg 100😢 i dont know why

Well the G1xon has the clear advantage of the expression pedal. The sound is still more organic on the Nux but the G1xon is probably more fun and creative for most players. It really depends what you want in a pedal - the authentic sounds of the Nux or the crazy possibilities of the Zoom. Thanks for watching Gearfacts :)

Gearfacts thanks for the respond! More power bro.!

Yeah I hear what you're saying, I prefer to have an actual switch as well. I also think the design itself is quite ugly but as you say, there's no disputing that the sound is very good for the price. Thanks for watching Gearfacts :)

@@gearfacts Would just unplugging it from the wall and leaving the guitar wire in it when I'm done playing work? Like that I don't risk breaking the socket where the wire goes into it. Or will that cause more damage than good? Thanks again!

I would choose the Nux MG100

@@gearfacts can you please suggest me a guitar? Should i take epiphone les paul special 2 or ve? Or if you can see the guitar " taloha neon jumpstart " then suggest me.. From Malaysia 🇱🇷

Such different pedals... Hmmm, I'd say Nux if you like classic tones and Zoom if you like modern features like beats, looping, and experimental effects :) #gearfacts

Zoom for me 8 days a week.

Good price I think :) #gearfacts

Ah yes, this is a weird part of it. I found that if you scroll to the right, it gives the upper set of EQ settings instead of the next effect in the chain. I'm delving into my unreliable memory though, hope it's correct on this occasion!

Yeah, it's not my finest work but I thought it might help some ppl :)

The Nux sounds way better. The GE100 is very chaotic though (if you like that style) and the big screen is an advantage. Ultimately it comes down to sound quality though, and all Nux multi-effects pedals perform better than the GE100. Thanks for watching Gearfacts!
