NuX MG-30 Multi-Effects Modeler Pedal, Black

Product Information

Perfect for accompanying yourself and practicing your instrument, silently if you wish thanks to the mini-jack headphone output. I owned and played through the real thing for years and the MG-30 was the closest to that experience out of all the modelers I have owned. The amp settings are also somewhat limited in range in the sense that the difference between maxing out the treble versus cutting it completely isn't quite as big as you'd expect.

The biggest bummer - you can do reamping with the device directly, requires no additional USB interface. Still no flat frequency response from the MG30, even if all effects are still disabled and all EQ controls are still at noon. I got held up for a long time and then time was even added on to the date they gave me but I finally got it and I really liked The sound but they had sent me a unit that was supposed to stay on the Chinese mainland, all the commands were foreign to me and there was no changing language. My amp and cabinet simulation was taken care of by a Hotone ‘something or other’ The name escapes me.

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*. No flat frequency response from the MG30 for the moment, even with all effects disabled and all EQ controls at noon.

The problem with multi effects for gigging I faced in the past is that it's difficult to switch sounds in the middle of the song as you need to go patches up and down which is complicated.My thought when I read your testimonial is that cranking the mids with the SLO might give the same kind of relative difference between bass and mids than flat settings with the Friedman or Recto sim with their selective dips in the bass. Personally, I've a hard time to understand the choices made by the NUX team when it comes to output modes and pre/post EQing. NMP-2 Footswitch for Remote Control – Remotely control, and use expression to control the on-board effects. I power my Friedman wah with 2 18650’s in series, And I power larger collections of pedals with 2 cellphone backup batteries also in series.
