But rather than uncontrollably, unusably artifacting, they are consistent tools to craft with

but it's an affordable tool that will help you get inspired and will not leave you with buyers remorse or with gear envy

Great tool - but not all functions can be accessed via feet ( I guess additional functionality means compromises )... but still an economic alternative over buying multiple pedals especially for a beginner .

30 second looper with beat machine is a steal

The built in tuner works great, the looper is super fun to practice with

The looper was very useful, when all that I had with me was this unit and my guitar

As the cheapest dedicated Looper I could find cost almost twice the price of the G1on, again it was a no-brainer

The looper is awesome and rhythm has plenty of great beats.

Extremely dissapointed and would not recommend this product to anyone that is serious about their tone

This product is noisy, and sounds far too fake to bring on a gig.

good product, great for practicing and very portable, good seller, and well packaged.

This is overall a great product but the product did have a few issues when I connected it to the plant waves adapter as suggested when purchasing it caused issues with the LCD display on the Zoom

The reviews say it all--this is an excellent product at an excellent price

Multi-effects processors promise the ultimate value - a one-stop shop for all your effects needs in a single package - but invariably fall short.

When you consider all these sounds are coming from a $50 effects pedal, the value is pretty amazing

The drum effects are cool, and the looper makes the thing a fantastic value for 50 bucks.

Unbelievable value

Good value for money in terms of number of effects and the possibilities of editable sounds

I wish the loop was longer, but nice unit, good sounds.

Sound is terrible does not compare at all to zooms $100+ pedals.

I would DEFINATELY reccomend this to new users, who just want some sick sounds to get a feel for different pedals and styles.

Returning it because of the intermittent sound problems.

Many of the presets are useless, but there are some great sounds in there.

- Some people say this unit is ugly, made of legos, and time-traveled from the 80's

Nice little unit for what it costs,I was surprised it sounded so good since it is so inexpensive

The sounds this thing can produce are pretty impressive for such an inexpensive unit

While this unit is a bit complex to work with, it doesn't take away from the overall value or function in my opinion

A little difficult learning units features but learning was well worth the time.

Where they fall short is the dirty distortions, I think, and they tend to suck the tone out of the guitar

Seems the reviews of this pedal emphasize the variety of tones and the low cost; I wished to give an alternative perspective of unnecessary tones and seventy bucks out the window is the most expensive device you can buy (unless you use it as your only modeling pedal and it lasts at least several years, both of which are highly unlikely).

This is just one example, but the same can be said for many other effects in regards to inspiring confidence (a warm, bluesy tone when practicing Stevie Ray, the crazy Hendrix tone, etc)

One crunchy tone can be followed by some weird echo tone followed by a clean.

It takes a bit to get used to controls, but once you have you can fairly easily dial in just About any tone you want, from sparkling clean to all out death metal over-the top tones, and everything imaginable in between

An amazing product in a small package with a great price

I highly recommend it, especially since the price is amazingly cheap.

When I first noticed the Zoom G1on on a retailer's website I thought the $49 price was either a mistake or it was a "blow out" price because of some design flaw

I even thought the price was wrong or for a banged-up unit

But for the price, and the number of presets, this is made up for

This has killer amp modeling and effects especially when you consider the price

It deliver's great tones and effects and all at a very affordable

It has tons of great effects and it has a built in wah pedal.

Other effects such as delay, reverb, compression, acoustic simulation, chorus, and noise reduction/gate are all quite good

There are lots of amplifiers,, compressors, distortions, noise reduction, and modulation effects to set up a good patch

I was mainly looking for multiple-sound effects but the looper, the tuner, and the rhythm are all nice added features especially for the price!

A little difficult learning units features but learning was well worth the time.

Yes it is missing some features but as most people have attested to they are not needed anyway

Feels more like an effects pedal, has all the same great features as the G1 with the addition of a looper and a large screen which gives it much more character than the simpler layout of the G1.

On the other hand, the G1on seems to compare very well with expensive pedals by having a whole lot of usable sounds and features at a low price

You can either use this with your expensive tube amp, using just the stompbox simulations, or add it to a cheap guitar and amp and get the sound you're looking for

This has killer amp modeling and effects especially when you consider the price

Zoom does not include the full list of available amps and effects with the unit, and so makes experimentation a bit more challenging

Typically this can include 5 of any: Amp Model, Distortion, Fuzz, Reverb, Delay, Chorus, Compressor, Etc.

It isn't quite the same thing as quality pedals going in to a top notch tube amp, but for the price, it allows many sounds you couldn't get without spending a lot of money

I've had this thing for about 24 hours and it has most definitely blown my mind

The drum effects are cool, and the looper makes the thing a fantastic value for 50 bucks.

This thing is a heck of a lot of fun and for $50, you can hardly go wrong

Sound still way too digital and poor, good thing the drums

The only bad thing, which probably justifies the bargain price: plastic case

Great!I am still finding new features from this pedal

and the preset sounds are great and they can be edited how you like I like it

Like with most effects' boards, most settings sound pretty bad, but it has a few that blow the mind

I've had this thing for about 24 hours and it has most definitely blown my mind

The fact that you can program your own patches just blows my mind

It works as it should and has hundreds of built in effects.

I've barely scratched the surface of what this thing can do but with nearly 100 effects you can play all day with this pedal

The bad: - After a few hours of experimentation, I'm still lost as how this would work in a live setting.

Barely scratched the surface because so far I have only played around with one amp model
