Hi, was hesitant to buy this at first you convinced me to grab this one today. Thanks. I'm so happy with this NUX MG-30

As always Jon, everything perfectly explained and everything in its place. You are a great man¡¡¡¡¡

Thx for the link to this wonderful demo.

This is the best demo of a new unit I have ever seen

Love the demo! I think I'm going to go for this - for bedroom jamming - hopefully get to play some more!

That intro is insane! Never saw you play like that 🔥

very tasty playing as usual! thank you jon!

Excellent review as always. The unit seems to be extremely good, especially for its price.

Finally just got my MG-30, Still play along with it, a lots of feature still working on it, I am still repeat watching your Demo, A lot of learn, Thanks JON, Good Demo

Wow! You were on fire on that intro Jonathan!!!!

Thank you! Nice review. I like the versatility of the different cab selections. I might actually get one. It would be interesting to try through a couple of flat response monitors. Hope all is well.

Beautiful review. Those effects are amazing. The EQ is very solid and always encourage people to use or try them on their patches. Helps some noise levels lower and also adding noise gate. Using eq to boost a bit. Im still learning more myself. Hahah.

Jon there’s really something special about this one. The intro really blew me away and every sound that came out of it was seriously impressive. Better than the Hotone Ampero to my ears especially the gains - wow Even the drums sound decent and the layout on the unit and the software look so intuitive. I have some more saving to do. This isn’t just a great demo it was a great introduction tutorial for anyone starting off with it. Nux should have a link to this in their site. Thanks very much Jon 👍😀❤️🎸

To be able to get tones like this at a $300 price point?! An amazing time to be a player.

Really liked that soloing - very cool stuff! One of these days when the lockdowns and restrictions are a thing of the past I'm gonna find myself in Singapore again and am going to have to catch you playing live somewhere. I'd have to try hard to get my wife to come along to a concert, so maybe it'll be at church instead...

You are amazing!! Many thanks for this awesome review!

I think I want one now thanks for the great video man.

Man, you ROOooooooooooCK ! I love your bluesy strat sound at 2'05. Thank you for the test and keep rockin' ;-)

Hi Jon, your playing is superb. My wife and I love the inspirational songs. He is The Best! After listening to this video a couple of times and comparing it with the MG 400... I ordered the MG 30 today. Thanks for the great insights on this great unit!

Hi Jonathan, I just wanted to let you know how much I love your videos, You and I have alot in common. I live in Alabama and spent 20 years as a Nashville recoring artist. You do some great work...!!! And God has Blessed you and me too. But I want to thank you, and let you know how much I enjoy your work. Your BIC, Doc Patten

Your playing was really amazing, as usual. I bought the MG-300 a couple of months ago and I love it. There's not enough reasons for me personally to go get the MG-30 tho at the moment having the 300. But yeah, no doubt the 30 is an awesome modeller, especially at it's price. Keep on rocking Jonathan!

Thanks Jon, I just Place an order for this one, I am very much interested, Sound Great, Thanks for Sharing the DEMO

Thanks Jonathan. I purchased this unit. Got it. Yesterday. Going to check it out this morning. Good video as usual. Thanks man. I'm stoked. It has a lot of options. Tuner and Looper too. For $300. It's worth it. Just hope it lasts. Take care. 😎👍💯🎸🎸. Note it's Sturdy metal. Not plastic. I like it 😊

Brilliant demo of this amazing unit. I watched Pete Thorn's demo/review earlier. I am sold. Just filed my taxes...getting a healthy return. This will be my next purchase. Thanks so much!

Awesome playing Jonathan, I wish I could shred like that!

great tone and Playing as always uncle jon

Tasty jams Sir, Tasty jams :) Subscribed. Thanks for the great review and Best Regards!

Superb playing and yes I just bought one, straight to my DAW no amp!!!!!!

Got this modeler and thankfully came across JonIsJustTooLoud!!!! Outstanding player!

Wow man, I love your play... really good play

Great video, as always! Just would like to hear the acoustic guitar simulation, for a complete review. 🎸👍🏼

Great demo. It's insane what you get for the price of one or two pedals... Love mine for home use with my tube amp (4 cable method) or as an audio interface. It's really well-designed. If anyone else bought this, remember to update your unit. You'll get even more amp sims and pedals (Marshall DSL100, Princeton, Blackstar, EVH, Soldano, fuzz, auto-wah...) .

great video, i cant wait to get mine but i have to wait.... ill wait for you nux.

Jon is just TOO Good!

Love that 2nd guitar man! Godbless!

Hi John awesome !!

Thanks Jonathan!!!!!

I’ve always bought Line 6 or Boss in the past but this really intrigues me.

Thank you for the video 👍👍👍

this is best guitar effect ever every sound is in this unit

Thanks for the wealth of information. Dilemma for me. I have the NUX MG-300. It has been with me for 5 weeks, but I have not even opened the box yet. Thinking of selling it to get the MG-30. Decisions, decisions.

Amazing talent

Gracias ponjaaaa me re sirvio!!!!!

Neat. This would be my pedal to end all pedals. And amps. Good demo, really appreciate the detailed effort. For like $250 you get a bunch of amps and cabs that sound like real amps and cabs. And something representing most pedals out there. And a whammy/wah/volume whatever pedal. It's a pretty absurd value proposition at this level of sound quality and simulation. It even has a headphone out so it's a practice amp. I think I want this now. Though I want a 5 or more button footswitch. Two buttons is trial sized.

Great Video, thx so much! Thumbs up and subscribed 👍😀

I’m at the four. Inute mark… nice playing!

SUPER !!!

Thanks 😁

I like NUX pedals. I have their tape echo and it can’t be beat for the money. Lots of good affordable stuff from these folks but, like everything gear related, it’s subjective.

Wooow like it, i hope i can buy soon🤗 From: Philippines

Nice ,, so cool man 🤟🤟🤟

Love your channel! This or the Zoom g6? Cheers bro!

Nice! Tell me more about the acoustic IRs, please. I'm wondering about using my PRS piezo equipped guitar, and creating separate presets for acoustic songs, or acoustic sections in songs.

WOW Nux

Excellent review Jon… I had been considering the 300.. but the 30 seems to be the way to go…. Can I use the included footswitch to set up 2 different patches and for example have one relatively clean and the second dirty?

Hi Jonathan, this is really cool! Would you say this sound "better' meaning more realistic amp sounds than the MG300?

Hello Jonathan, nice in depth review! I'm not familiar with this kind of gear. Is it possible with this unit to assign a preset to one footswith and another preset to another footswitch? Like putting a Marshall sound to footswitch one and a clean Fender sound to footswitch two and so on. I suppose you don't need an audio interface to connect it via USB to a computer, right? Thanks for your answer.

Hi Jon great review When you do the looper and drum machine test what patch do you use for it as it sounds great

Can't complain especially for the price - just the looper and drum machine is worth it! But damn is it bright! Like an ice pick!

That duotime pedal is good

❤❤❤

Hi really cool review. Tell me have you tried the Headrush MX5? I am debating whether to get this or the Nux mg 30? Your thoughts? Thank you.

Alright Jon it's a pretty cool device.... Question can you have more than one delay and reverbs or only one at a time? How did you feel about the sounds vs the line 6 stuff?

Jonathan, YOU ROCK 😄🥳.👉...👍 🐈

Hi Jonathan. What is "Rhythm Synchronization Drum Machine? Can you tap in fills for the drum machine? Thank you. I wish I could get a couple of guitar lessons from you. Beautiful work!

Once again you don't disappoint with your reviews. Where you able to find out can you save your loops that you've created on the 300, as well as on this mg 30? This will be a deal breaker for me. Im really liking the MG 30. Thanks in advance. 😉

Mg 300 super !

Hey Jonathon, awesome playing and fantastic review. I saw your review on the Ampero as well and had a question regarding the looping features since I am a bit torn between the two. On the Ampero, you mentioned that looping could be a challenge with the drums because of the start and end points - you have to nail them. I have to assume then that the start point of the loop does not sync automatically to the first downbeat of the drums (like it would for instance in the old line 6 spider amps). Is the looping feature on the Nux more forgiving (does it sync with the drums) or are you still prone to human timing to get the start and end points correct?

Greetings from Oz. Thanks for the review. How many factory presets are there? And how many User presets? Are there available on the MG 30 the equivalent of “snapshots” on the Line6 Helix? Francis

Johnathan I watched your video of the Hotone Ampero. How would you compare this unit to it as far as sounds, build and usability? Thanks for any input.

Thanks for the detailed review (as usual!). I have three questions regarding the MG30: [1] Is it possible to change amps in S2 and S3 scenes), so these are significantly different than the S1 patch? [2] Is it possible to assign NMP-2 with A and B to bank up and down and the footswitches on the pedal from left to right assigned to change patches, ie, 1A (single press), 1B (single press), 1C (single press), and 1D (double press control switch). So when I press B, then 2A, 2B, 2C, and 2D are available, and so on. This would be much better for a live situation. [3] Is the assignment of the four controls per patch or global?

Hi Jon! Thanks for this. I am getting the Nux MG 30. To connect to the computer, (I am using the Steinberg UR22C) do I just go from my NUX 2 outs to the Steinbergs 2 in and record directly to Garageband or Logic Pro?

I am not too keen on pressing two footswitches together, you have to do that side foot thing and if you get it wrong it messes up the patch you are on, saying that, it isn't very often I use the looper when playing live

Hey Jon..which one would you prefer Line 6 Pod-go or NUX MG-30???

Hi Jon! May I use a daisy chain in the send and return, i.e. 2 or 3 pedals? Presently, I am just using the Boss SY200, but would love to add a few more pedals.

Very good review, I have a question, the MG 30 comes with a dual footswitch, if instead of that I use a footswitch with more buttons? to use the NUX in stompbox mode or would the NUX not recognize more than 2 footswitches? My decision to buy it depends a lot on this Thank you in advance!

Nice when is it available in the uk ?

Thanks for the demo. This or the Ampero?

Hi Jon, Is the footswitch included in the box or do we have to purchase it separately? Thank you.

Hi jon.. If u have exp with mooer 200 n 250 or even MG400.. did u still choose this MG30?

Hey Jon, what are the main differences between the MG-30 and the Pod Go?

what a tasteful player...

that would sound wAy good through my early 70s Champ!! and fer nOt too much $$ either!!! but i'm up in >CA so it will probly be 2x as much here... IF we get them at all... thnx fer the good vid... ;0) M

Hey man you've used both nux mg 30 and zoom g5n can you please tell me which one is a better pick on basis of sound and other things..

Is this meant for the floor or a table mount? I see buttons that look like they are intended as a foot switch, but then why have a display with other controls that require hands and bending down frequently? What am I missing? The unit seems to be on a table for all demos, yet is it a floor unit? Thanks for the video. 😉

WOW! Finally! A Cat Daddy player who creates a lovely soothing, surprising, babble-free tour of my new favorite piece of Kit. You Jon are A Player’s Player. A Gilmour. A Wolfgang Amadeus. An Allan Holdsworth (God rest his Soul) Don’t take my word for it. There’s Probably more heart🫀 and love ❤️ than I’ve ever seen in the comments of a RU-vid Video. Rightly so . You make me want to practice….. because I’m inspired by your choices. Those aren’t licks 👅you’re playing. They’re sonic lollipops!🍭 I bought this unit because of the TONE. It takes a solid instrument to make that tone. Ears and Hands that Know. Now just HOW do you do that magic wobble at 4:24 during the high gain ride??? Must be a whammy special effect . I am putting your video in a playlist to peel some notes / chords from and just to soak in the magical vibes you lay down. Your playing Is more proof to me that the best music is always made by players who seek to reach the infinite beyond. Thank you. And 3 fingers do most the work. Makes sense. Blessings to You. Thank you for Blessing Me.

Hey jonathan, i am confused. Which one should i buy Nux mg30 vs Mooer GE 200 vs Zoom G5n?

How does this compare to the hotone ampero one in terms of amp simulation (specially the fender and marshall amps),audio depth quality of reverbs and modulation ?? Plz tell

Hi Jonathan this NUX MG30 can be used for live gigs?

How much better are the sounds and the UI on the MG-30 as opposed to the MG-300?

I have a NUX MG-30 in the Mandarin version. Is there any way to convert it to the English version of its software/firmware? The latest Update, V4, is not compatible with the Mandarin version

How are you running that? Are you running it through an amp or are you using Studio output?

great video but just one doubt.. if I want to play only trough headphones . is it necessary to connect the MG30 into an amp or PC?? or can play just trough the headphones without connecting the MG30 into amp or PC?? I'll appreciate someone reply me ..t-you=)

Does it have a preset preselect feature like the zoom?

Please someone tell nux mg 30 or zoom g5n

Can the tuner work for a bass? I never understood if, to have a bass tuner, you can only use a bass pedal. Thanx in advance.

Man, your shredding today! Stop making us look bad...lol.

In looper is it possible to change effects for different loop recording? For example record clean background and then overdrive lead?

Jonathan where do you go to access the software to customize patches on this unit??? 😊😊
