Multi-effects unit with integrated expression pedal for electric guitar
The Zoom G1X FOUR multi-effects unit convinces with a multitude of first-class guitar sounds at an extremely attractive price-performance ratio. Accordingly, the compact effects pedal offers more than 70 simulations of well-known guitar amplifiers, speakers and effects, ranging from classic vintage clean and overdrive sounds to effect impregnated ambient tones and brute metal. The Zoom G1X FOUR not only boasts an integrated expression pedal, which allows you to control certain effects in real time, but also a straightforward operating concept, so that the right sound can be stored in one of the 50 memory locations in no time at all. The Zoom G1X FOUR also connects to the Zoom Guitar Lab software via the USB port for editing and archiving on the computer. The Zoom G1X effect processor also sports an integrated 30-second loop recorder and a drum computer whose 68 rhythm patterns provide the right beat for almost every musical style.

This little multi effect processor pedal, it’s one of the best for the money it costs, easy to use and very versatile, I think the feature that I like most of this G1x four is the drum machine and also the guitar lab software so that you can customise various effects to suit you. The only thing I’d like a lot but could be improve its the looper capability, it’s awesome and easy to understand, but it won’t save the loops created and it’s only limited to a 30sec loop, it’s kinda annoying as once you get used to use the looper and build on it with different tracks, you kinda have to loose it all afterwards unless if you do what I do you record via different device just to keep any good ideas. Maybe I am wrong and you can save the loops made but in the manual there’s not any instructions on how to do this. Other then that for a pedal like this that’s under £100 you can’t really knock it. Thumbs up for me as I haven’t stopped using it since has been delivered. It’s my perfect practice indoor mate 👍🏻
I love this little gizmo. For the price it is amazing. The number of effects and the adjustments you can make is amazing. I will buy its bigger brother one day. But right now this is a great bit of kit. Plug your guitar in and stick the batteries in it and away you go. Great fun.
