About this deal

With so many different effects and simulators to choose from, you'd be forgiven to think that the Zoom G1X Four would be difficult to operate.

Would you be surprised to learn that it doesn’t get any better when I try to build my own patch? Slightly fatigued by the scooped high-gain sounds dominating the factory presets, I decide to give something ambient a go. So, I load up the basics: a pitch-shifter, a mono delay and – oh. The pitch-shifter and the delay have eaten most of the device’s CPU, meaning a bunch of the amps just refuse to load. This is a fantastic little device for anyone that wants a huge range of tones in one handy pedal. For the price you are unlikely to do better. The defence in the face of all of these drastic flaws is that, well, you get what you pay for. The most obvious comparison to the G2/G2X four – the Line 6 HX Stomp – is about twice the price. But, that’s not quite the full picture: the Nux MG-400, for instance, is cheaper than either Zoom unit, has an expression pedal, a higher-resolution colour LCD screen, supports user IRs and can be controlled with a free desktop app.It's the same price as a single effect pedal, yet it contains dozens of effects. Most of the effects sound really good. If you want to experiment with lots of effects to find the ideal sound for a song, this is a convenient and cheap way to do it. I use this at home as my main effects unit. It's usually the only effects unit in my signal chain. Overall I'm very happy with the unit for this purpose. Record at home or in the studio with your favourite effects and amp models by connecting the G2X Four to your computer via USB-C. Preloaded in the form of 250 presets, these patches were designed to document the sonic evolution of guitar sound. Each patch recreates the sound of a legendary song from the 1950s to the present day.

The default programs range from the not-so-subtle to the bizarre and amusing. However it's easy to create your own programs. A program can contain up to 5 internal effects. Many of the internal effects are emulations of specific standalone pedals. For example, there are emulations of the Tubescreamer ("TS Drive", Klon ("Gold Drive") and Zendrive. Don't let the eccentric default programs put you off. There are plenty of usable effects in this pedal. Thanks to the inclusion of a built-in looper function, along with 68 drum rhythms in a variety of time signatures, the Zoom G1X Four Multi Effects Processor is the perfect tool to help you improve your playing technique and boost your creativity.However, thanks to the comprehensive on-board controls, and Zoom's Guitar Lab software, dialling in your perfect sounds and saving them as presets couldn't be easier. Power Options The G1 FOUR/G1X FOUR runs on just four AA batteries. Alternatively, it can be powered using the optional Zoom AD-16 AC adapter or via USB bus power.

Stay Looped In The built-in looper can record up to 30 seconds of playing, allowing you to create dynamic, multi-part arrangements. Using all-new amp modelling and innovative IR technologies, the Zoom G2X Four gives guitarists more sound variations to choose from than ever before. You can create amazing sounds right out of the box. There are plenty of products that are comparably priced to the G2/G2X Four – and while they may not all be as feature-rich as something like the HX Stomp, they’re all lightyears ahead of their Zoom equivalents. And that’s just their on-paper specifications. Sonics are a bit more subjective, but given the G2/G2X Four’s amp and effect models, it’s not like any of them are going to be worse.The redesigned control surface makes it even easier to edit effect parameters, rearrange effect chains, and access the looper and tuner. The ZOOM G2 FOUR and G2X FOUR give guitarists more tone variations than ever before thanks to all-new amp modeling and innovative IR technology. You’ll dial in amazing sounds right out of the box. The G2 FOUR and G2X FOUR take amp modeling to the next level. They combine faithfully reproduced models of classic amps (and a few new ones, too) and pair them with cabinet models that utilize our new Multi-layer IR technology. This gives guitarists both great tone and the feeling of that “big stage” sound in any environment. FEATURES Looper for recording up to 30 seconds / 64 beats of CD-quality audio with seamless start and endtimes Thanks to the ever-growing library of patches and effects, every guitarist can expand their sound selection via the Guitar Lab app (for iOS / Android).
