About this deal

For the record, I share below the response of the SLO (all controls at noon) as it is now emulated by the MG30 (in blue), VS the curves of other digital MG30 models: the JCM800 (in white), 1987X (in green) and Friedman (in pink). Due to the current Covid situation, the launch of the MG-30 hasn't gotten the market share it deserves, unlike its little brother the MG-300.

Andertons Music Company is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority, firm registration number 716155. If you select bypass in the drop down menu you use to select between pedals, it should show a blank space in Quicktone. For a little more you could look at the Pod Go or the Boss GX-100 which are both super easy to use and have very high-quality effects. On the pc there's nothing you can compare with, and on the device buttons are spot on to navigate through and adjust - graphics on the big screen are amazing and bright to see in any light conditions. To compare for instance to the curves in the second picture, obtained from an "analog modeler": my Mesa TA15 tube head, tested through its voxy channel (in white) then through the three modes of its red channel: Tweed (Fender emulation, in green), H1 (Marshall emulation, in blue) and H2 (Boogie emulation, in pink).they have all a rather high Q factor (I was rather expecting a shelving EQ for low and high frequencies and a parametric mid control would have made sense). NMP-2 Footswitch for Remote Control – Remotely control, and use expression to control the on-board effects. It's wasn't perfect out of the box, as it didn't have a UK power adaptor with the correct pins and using it with a 2-pin shaving adaptor was a bit unstable, but luckily I already had a suitable power adaptor that worked just fine. If most or all of your patches have the same problem, remember there's a global EQ setting (how-to video is here).

IMO the studio direct mode is fine as-is, for recording I actually want less bass and more impact in the highs. an over voltage of less than a volt isn’t going to hurt anything new, At least it hasn’t on anything of mine yet. If you are approved for a credit limit with PayPal Credit and use it for future purchases, the APR for those purchases wont be more than 23. It doesn't make a difference in how it sounds obviously, but it adds a sense of interaction to the experience that makes it way more enjoyable to tweak the thing compared to the, for example, boring red horizontal scroll bars on other modelers *cough Helix cough*. They put out about 5 V apiece with a lot of current behind them, which I guess it sort of gets halved in the series connection, but nothings perfect.I've owned most of the big boy digital stuff including Kemper, Fractal and Helix, so I have a fairly good idea of what these things are capable of. I know Andy Gillion used a Mooer GE-200 on tour and I can totally see these small modelers being great for fitting your entire live rig in a gigbag with your guitar. EDIT - for comparison (and to verify that the results above are not due to a flawed test), PIC 7 shows in green the basic frequency response of a Valeton GP100, all FX's disabled, VS the reference signal direct to the board (white line).

One has to put the EQ FX as the first block, and set it to be a para EQ set to: 32Hz+3dB // 1kHz+2dB // 5kHz-14dB? That's as much or more than the EQing scoop generated by the tone stack of a Fender Blackface with all controls at noon, for the record, albeit with different center frequencies. A lot of multi effects have this these days but almost non of them let you access the drums and looper in 1 screen. No flabby artificial deep bass, no hissy unnatural treble, sounds very tight and pleasant to the ear.

Below is the frequency response of the "Tweedy" amp model, cab sim disabled, in STUDIO DIRECT output mode (PIC 1). It's simple and fun to use, sounds great and for a bedroom guitarist it has everything you could ever need. I tried to find a schematic to see if it wasn’t a simple switch to DC right at the input, and something that I could modify but I haven’t found one yet. I've read somewhere that Nux has modeled the output transformer for the VIVO model and they might have overdone it. MG-30 provides 3 acoustic IRs and 2 acoustic amp models for electric guitar to simulate acoustic guitar sound.

All this renders a natural, dynamic and inspiring sound and feel of playing, without any perceptible latency! No flat frequency response from the MG30 for the moment, even if all effects disabled and all EQ controls at noon.It's intentionnal: it allows to avoid any inconsistency due to the position of the physical volume knob on the MG30 (more accessible to clumsy feet on stage than a "lateral" / perpendicular pot would be and. Luckily it has an IR loader built in, with about 26-ish (I can't remember exactly) slots for external IR's. So my question is, is the MG-300 screen that hard to read, as it looks really miniature in the photos? You can choose from 25 different amps which is less than most other units but the quality is spot on. I've purposedly done these tests with a sofware potentially easy to find and to use for other musicians: Rightmark Audio Analyzer.
