Your criticism of preset choices is 100% spot-on. With gazillions of hardware and software bass products being pumped out by the industry every day, we need less confusion and more focus on practicality. Maybe Zoom and other manufacturers should reign their marketing depts. a little bit and consult more to working bass players like you. Vielen Dank für die Bewertung

@spazianiband Месяц назад

Excellent observation, there are many things perhaps too many that are of little use and unused, but from what I see it is a general mistake of all

@wasimoto_7540 Год назад

One killer feature that is overlooked: it can be powered through USB with any powerbank.

@wasimoto_7540 11 месяцев назад

Same goes for the B1Four!

@brentheathersimons7042 Год назад

Thank you for doing this guys! Surprisingly they aren't many demos out there to watch- Best wishes- Brent, VT USA

@HeathAllyn Год назад

Just ordered one! I was giving up on finding a unit that had just the right balance of features and simplicity and then found this today! I tried a Tech 21 Bass Fly Rig V2, but I just didn't click with it. This was the ONLY in depth review I could find and it was super helpful. Thanks!

@latenight5865 Год назад

6 different DI tones seem to be even more useful than multi effects

@thomasfioriglio Год назад

Really great review and I agree with you regarding the presets. I have the B1 Four and it has 40 built in presets. They are organized as 10-20 Clean, 21-30 Drive, 31-40 various effects, 41-50 amp sims. I looked through the presets for the B2 Four and most of those songs I just don't know, making them difficult to figure out without going through each one. For now, I'll keep my B1 Four.

Slap is always my go to when trying out fuzz.

@fluoridevolcano8746 Год назад

I love the Zoom B6 but please ask zoom if they're going to add android support to the Bluetooth control app and if a dual footswitch can be set up to control patch changes or the looper!

@the0dead0next0door Год назад

Thank you for this. I'm sold. If you just wanna run direct or tour without a while rig this looks like it. Love your channel

@ShuKatashSam Год назад

Most of Zoom's combos are really odd for their pre sets. Makes a bassist really try different things to get something musical out of each pre set. Their Compression is really good as well as the phaser/envelope, they use to have great distortion, but a lot of the pre sets are more just the dirt distortion, which works nicely for many things. I used their older 9.01 and have their new B6. Sound is much cleaner with their newer models. A Helix perhaps? Lots more cash. Better to learn to program what is there. Drums and looping are improved and some improvement with user interfaces. I liked the old Digitech Bx3, but it had many issues but great pre sets. Great seeing Alex playing for the product review. You guys are great!

@Grasklipparmannen 9 месяцев назад

Great, great review and keep up your positive tone 👌👍

@MateuszJagocha Год назад

Yeah I always change DI during song so having one button dedicated only for this seems like awesome idea xD

@dr.jenskuhnemann3411 Год назад

Thanks for the review. I own the unit and what is realla annoying is the way the menu works. If you want to change parameters the parameter page jumps back to the preset page after 3 seconds, hoping for a firmware update. It would have been great if you said something about the quality of the effects and / or demonstrated some of them.

@treymitchell5229 8 месяцев назад

Love the sounds of this pedal. It's got some great effects. I'm not crazy about the UI. I don't understand why they don't show the patch names until after you've selected that patch. How am I supposed to remember what patch 274 is? And I'm not a fan of the directional arrows. They aren't big enough for me to control with my feet. But they are nice and large and easy to use by hand when making quick adjustments on stage.

@AnnickEudes Год назад

Found the best part right here: 3:08

@MidtownSkyport Год назад

1:27 is pretty good

@toninice6876 Год назад

I have the b3 from Zoom and it s still a very Good Pedal

@jeroenlemmens7916 4 месяца назад

hey, i once bought a b3n to experiment with. I was surprised. Meanwhile I also have a b6. there is a great temptation to also purchase this b2 four. Zoom is good, price quality is ok. I never use the factory patches. Always find your own tone. Greetings, Jeroen.

@burningkarma 8 месяцев назад

I was going to go the head rush route but this seems to be better for bass with more connection options.

@louishugues4106 8 месяцев назад

Following your demo I bought one to use with my Yamaha BBP34. There is a 1073 preamp simulation in it and I use it for recording direct. As you do insist in several of your videos about the value to record with a 1073 on the signal path, do you think this one has some similarities with the real thing ?

@AloysiusChowBass 18 дней назад

I wish they had a model of this with a build-in volume/wah pedal to it like the older model.

@kusi0r Год назад

Great Shirt!

@SG-dw1my Год назад

Adding to your criticism, they really made a mistake filling all 250 patches to sound like songs I've never heard of nor want to emulate. Why abandon patches from previous models? I want patches to feature effects and amps. With the previous model, out of the box, there were several very usable patches, some needing only minor adjustments. With this, I'd delete ALL patches and start from scratch. I notice they also did not include speaker cab sims from previous models. There is only built in sims for the amp sims. You can't specify 1x15, 8x10, etc. No IR loading either. And please, Zoom, no one uses the Bomber effect.

@PaddyLeggBass 3 месяца назад

Totally agree! The bomber effect is absolutely ridiculous!! 😂😂

@daevien Год назад

If this one is like my older b1x four, you can make your own patches easily and redo the order of them all so the 5 you use can be in order. It also looks like the tuner is still there as well so it can cover that duty as well.

@kirtfulcher6288 Год назад

If I hadn't just bought my B1X-Four 1.5 years ago, I would be drooling.

@caspergregson6893 Год назад

Alex can make anything sound expensive 💯

@asfodhell Год назад

Nice ! I kinda feel like it lacks an FX loop ... I use two ZOOM B1 Four pedals. The first one has Noisegate, Compressor with optional EQ, Pitch Shifter etc ... Then a Behringer BDi21 for its great preamp sound and pre-amp DI. The second B1 Four has an Exciter, Overdrive and Amp + Cab. All of this goes into a Behringer GDi21 that does the job for some guitars and has a DI out so I can send the signal to the USB mixer and real amps. Everytime I record something, I have a post and pre amp track, very useful when I feel like my amp and cab choice is not appropriate. From what I seen in the videos about the new Zoom G2 Four, menus seem less user-friendly than the previous gen. If you want to use the looper and/or drums, for exemple. But it's really nice these new ones can have a proper pedalboard mode where there's up to 3 dedicated footswitches for 3 "pedals". Having to Mod the old ones (A1/G1/B1 Four) with 5 external temporary switches is not ideal.

@alfianbanjaransari4096 Год назад

I don't think it's aimed at more sophisticated players. It's pretty awesome as a standalone multi effects

@asfodhell Год назад

@@alfianbanjaransari4096 yep, I totally agree ! Also, for live use, it seem about perfect. My setup is more fitting to bedroom covers for youtube 😂

@ericpurvis2262 Год назад

Wish i couldve heard more pick and finger style with the drive, cause i had the b2.1u and the overdrive/distortions sounded like absolute crap, rest of the effects were pretty awesome, especially the delay for sure, but mine got water logged in a flood :/

@geraldp494 Год назад

Hi please review the "Sabra Cadabra Pedal" on Bass 😊

@LRBASS65 Год назад

I never used effects but I picked this baby up and it's very kool. I have the app on my iPad and it's very good. It makes editing so much easier.

@aqua4648 6 месяцев назад

Is the app the one you have to pay a dollar for?

@SerjBassist Год назад

I feel Zoom products are great for dipping your toes on bass effects. I've had a B2.1u for about 10 years and has served me well, but I wasn't a fan of its amp and drive sounds, so I paired it with a SansAmp clone and a separate compressor.

@BassRacerx Год назад

yeah just pick one of these up and start gigging 99.999 percent of your audience won't be able to tell the difference between something like this and more expensive options. build your dream vintage/boutique pedalboard over time and if you are an actual pro you can spend all the cash on whatever discrete pedals you want.

@malcelinho Год назад

I recently bought a B1x four, and I feel the same. I'm exploring its effects and a handful of its effects are more than enough for a bedroom player/casual gig player like me

@amyrparker6313 Год назад

price?

@JuanAntonioDevecchiMas Год назад

Any reasons to prefer the b6 over the b2 four?

@joaobatistaraposovasti6524 Год назад

Show de técnica!!!

@wolframheldmaier727 Год назад

I love Zoom Multieffects. I owned a lot from B1 to B3n. This one looks useless for live. How to change banks? With the arrow button top left? I am wearing Doc Martins … 😢 What is the Progresse compared to B2? Still no split or parallel chains.

@thereturnfc Год назад

I tired it. Hit top left then 1 and 2 switch becomes left right selector. Then hit top left to back to pedal mode

@mrpositronia Год назад

What's the latency like for octaves? I last used my Zoom pedal 20 years ago and the high latency on octave was unusable.

@basstheworldofficial Год назад

felt good. no worries

@lilbigmike009 Год назад

Why this over the b6!? I’m confused what’s better!?

@basstheworldofficial Год назад

The B6 is definitely better

@PorchBass Год назад

Alex isn't as tight on the demos, sorry. The audio clips all through 2:50 section was that the pedal or the recording?

@ngkingpui Год назад

Use song name for preset, can make it different from others, and I like this. Stand by me sound and studio bass sound , both we understand mean clean sound, use song name to communicate may easier these days
