Zoom G3X - Stompbox/Amp Modelling Console w/USB & Expression Pedal
Zooms G3 Guitar Effects and Amp Simulator combines the ease of a stompbox pedalboard with the power of a multi-effects processor and USB audio interface. With complete control over individual effects and amp modeling, you can change your tones on the fly for both stage and studio.
Three stomps. One pedal.
G3 offers three large LCD displays and corresponding footswitches that form a graphical interface, allowing you to utilize up to three stompbox and amp effects simultaneously. The interface has also been simplified with three control knobs for each display. This intuitive design makes creating, saving and rearranging the effect chain of your own sounds a breeze and provides easy navigation in live and studio settings.
Evolution of tube amp simulation.
A newly developed sigmoid curve clipper re-creates the smooth clipping of a tube amplifiers waveform. With its faithful tube distortion, G3 can simulate amplifier sounds, including clean, crunch and full-gain tones that are authentic to the original models.
Super-real amp modeling.
G3s 13 super-real amp models range from vintage to the latest trends in amp technology, each with its own distinct cabinet modeling that can be used to alter its tone characteristics. By combining amplifiers and cabinets from different makers, you can digitally design your own custom rig. G3s modeling technology provides the best tone for both live performance and direct recording.
*Only one amp model can be used at a time.
94 stompbox models.
G3 has 94 diverse types of stompbox presets, including some of the worlds most popular guitar pedals. You can use up to three effects in any combination. G3s wide range of effects includes distortion, compression, modulation, delay and reverb. Its HD Reverb uses DSP power to produce a rich resonance that rivals outboard gear used in professional studios and live setups.
*Only two effects can be used in some combinations that feature amp models or HD Reverb.
The newest generation of DSP: ZFX-IV.
G3 utilizes the all-new ZFX-IV DSP effects processor. This generation of ZFX boasts amazing power, upgrading everything from sound to function and operability over previous versions. By using 32-bit floating-point processing, G3 possesses amplifier sounds that are more realistic than ever before.
Looper function with 40-second phrase recording/overdubbing.
G3s Looper capabilities include 40 seconds of phrase recording and overdubbing. The sound-on-sound function allows you to layer guitar sounds as many times as you want in real time. You can use looped sounds as simple backing tracks or create a full band feel with the built-in drum machine and DSP effects for a live solo.
• When the UNDO/REDO functions is enabled, the recording time is limited to 20 seconds.
USB audio interface for DAW recording.
G3 operates as an audio interface, letting you record directly to your computer via USB. All of your sound settings used during rehearsals or live performances can be recorded to your favorite DAW such as the included Steinberg Sequel LE recording software. The pedals direct monitoring capability eliminates any latency problems, assuring realistic studio conditions and hassle-free operation.
100 versatile effects on-board.
Select from 100 built-in DSP effects to create your own sounds on G3. Try its renowned compression and wah pedals, chorus effects with stunning depth and resonant reverbs. Or let your tonal imagination run free with dynamic flangers, tremolos, harmonized pitch shifters, multi-tap delays, reverse delays and much more. G3 can store up to 100 of your original creations without a hitch.
Integrated drum machine.
Choose from 40 different rhythm patterns, including 4, 8 and 16-beat, shuffle and many others. The tap key also makes it easy to directly set the tempo and start a jam session anytime.
Balanced XLR output for DI use.
With its built-in XLR output, you can avoid DI boxes completely and directly connect G3 to any mixing console and maintain a balanced, high quality signal. In addition, a convenient Pre/Post switch can direct an effected sound to the main outputs while passing the guitar signal directly to the XLR output without the help of an A/D converter.
Output modes for stage or studio.
Different output modes allow you to optimize G3s tones based upon its connection with your personal rig. In addition to modes for the front inputs of combo and stack amps, G3 can be used as a preamp when connected to a power amp input. By selecting the direct mode with a line connection, you can achieve a realistic guitar sound that is optimal for live use and recording.
Add a G3 to your pedalboard.
G3 is perfect for use in combination with traditional stompboxes. By adding a G3 to your pedalboard, you will decrease the size and complexity of your setup, while expanding your systems effects and modeling capabilities.
Accurate, real-time Tuner function.
The pedals Tuner function offers smooth, real-time response with precise guitar tuning accuracy. Whether youre in the middle of a performance or practicing alone in your room, simply hold down the pedals center footswitch to start getting your strings back on pitch. In addition, G3s LCD displays and LED indicators make the feature easy to use on a dark stage, where you can also mute the output for seamless tuning.
World's fastest patch change speed: 1ms.
With G3s amazing 1ms patch change speed, you will never miss a beat. Change from rhythm playing to a solo in an instant by simply pushing the switch.
Runs on batteries, AC adapter, or USB power.
G3 can operate on three different power sources: AC adapter (included), batteries or USB bus power when plugged into your computer. Four AA/LR6 alkaline batteries provide over six hours of continuous playing. Whether on stage or in the studio, G3 gives you reliable power options.
Super-low noise design.
G3s signal-to-noise ratio of 120dB and noise floor of -100dBm virtually eliminate background noise. G3s ZNR noise reduction removes feedback and other unwanted sounds, providing you with beautiful tones and natural release.
Optional expression pedal and footswitch.
Connect an optional FP02 expression pedal to G3 and control effect parameters such as wah, pitch shift, volume, drive gain, modulation rate and delay/reverb mix in real time. Use an optional FS01 footswitch to tap the tempo used for the drum machine, looper and effects. You can also use an FS01 to mute the Delay/Reverb input or turn Delay Hold on or off.
Zooms Edit&Share software, which is available as a free download for G3, allows you to create, edit and save your personalized amp and effect settings on your computer. Use its radar charts to access visual representations of each presets tone characteristics, amp/effect sorting feature to easily locate your sounds and drag-and-drop options to rearrange patches for editing purposes. With Edit&Share, you can download the latest patches online, as well as share your patches with others.

Fun, Potentially Great Multi FX - But with Limitations 1 personne sur 1 ont trouvé cet avis pertinent

Succursale Toronto (Bloor St.), Ontario
Since the other reviewer has already commented on the specs. for the Zoom G3X, I will limit my comments to what I experience as the highlights and limitations of this unit.
First, on paper the G3X satisfied all of my needs - I wanted
1. A multi-effects unit
2. Something that had a looper
3. A unit that could act as an Audio Interface
4. Drum machine included
5. An expression pedal
6. A robust unit
Multi-Effects
As others have noted elsewhere, while there are a lot of effects in the G3X, it is probably accurate to say that the distortions and amp emulations, in particular, are mediocre, while reverb and the modulation effects (such as chorus, delay and so on) are very pleasing.
Looper
The looper is great fun, but as someone else said to me, it is probably more accurate to describe it as a phrase trainer, as a single loop can only be 40 seconds long (if overdubbing loops, this maximum time is shortened to 20 seconds).
Zoom, why, oh why, do you not include a maximum looping time of several minutes? This just does not make sense.
Similarly, another shortcoming of the looper, from my perspective, is that there is no memory - turn the G3X off, and you lose the loop. This is very annoying for learning purposes in general, and in particular, for songwriting.
Audio Interface
I must confess that I have not tried the unit as an AI yet, but look forward to doing so. All of the reviews that I have read about this say that the G3X works well in this respect with multiple DAWs.
Drum Machine
Once again, I would like to have seen the capabilities of the rhythm machine increased significantly beyond the preset patterns that exist in the G3X. Technology nowadays makes it more than possible to include various editing capabilities in this respect.
Expression Pedal
I am having a great time with the expression pedal, and find it to be of quite sturdy construction. Another plus, to me is that, should the pedal break, it is possible to plug in an external pedal.
One minus regarding the pedal/electronics of the unit - also apparently experienced by several other users - is that the pedal can sometimes, inexplicably, lose its connection to the Wah setting. Doing a factory reset seems to be the solution to this, but that means also restoring any custom patches that one has created and backed up, which is a bit frustrating.
A Robust Unit
The Zoom G3X really seems to be very robust, and sturdy. Also, it is very small and easily portable, which I value a great deal.
Overall
If the changes that I noted above are included in a new version of the G3X, it would make it a solid 10 out of 5 stars for me, and would take it from being a fun, but limited, amateur multi-fx, into the realm of professionally useful.
Given the current state of the unit, however, I would recommend it, but with the recommendations I have already noted.
One thing that I have not stated enough is that the G3X is certainly a lot of fun - and easy - to use.

Succursale London South, Ontario
I needed a bit of reverb and delay so I bought this. What a surprise.. it is good for so much more. Good tuner and a really nice looper with drum machine. Plays backing tracks from pc through usb. Volume pedal. wah, nice chorus and on and on. Awesome with headphones for quite practice. I use it mostly through the loop of a tube amp but also worked great in front of amp and on its own with phones. Nice nice unit for a couple hundred bucks!!

Protégez votre investissement avec la Garantie de fiabilité Long & McQuade.
Une bonne garantie est souvent un facteur décisif au moment d’un achat. Étant donné qu’une réparation peut être très dispendieuse, les manufacturiers n’offrent en général qu’une protection limitée d’un an couvrant seulement les défauts de fabrication. Lors d’une acquisition aussi importante que celle d’un instrument de musique ou d’une pièce d’équipement, vous voudrez avoir l’assurance que votre achat sera protégé de façon adéquate.
C’est pourquoi Long & McQuade offre une année GRATUITE de sa Garantie de fiabilité sur la plupart de ses produits. Cette couverture, qui bonifie celle du fabricant, vous procurera la tranquillité d’esprit que vous recherchez.
En quoi la garantie Long & McQuade se distingue-t-elle de celles des autres fabricants?
- Fiabilité assurée : l’usure normale de certaines pièces est couverte. Le produit fonctionnera aussi bien qu’au premier jour pour toute la durée de la protection. Pour les instruments d’orchestre, nos techniciens et techniciennes évalueront la nécessité d’effectuer un nettoyage en profondeur, un remplacement de tampons ou un nettoyage à ultrasons. Ces services ne sont pas offerts systématiquement dans le cadre de la Garantie de fiabilité.
- Possibilité de remplacement : si votre produit est irréparable ou coûte trop cher à remettre en état, nous l’échangerons contre un modèle identique ou équivalent, sans frais supplémentaires. Si ce n’est pas possible, nous vous accorderons un remboursement complet.
- Politique anticitron : si votre article présente un problème récurrent, nous le remplacerons.
- Accessibilité : vous pouvez vous prévaloir de votre garantie dans n’importe quelle succursale Long & McQuade.
- Réglage de guitare : une mise au point gratuite est incluse à l’achat de toute guitare neuve ou d’occasion.
- Prêt de matériel : un produit de rechange peut être mis à votre disposition pendant la réparation de votre article.
- Survoltage couvert : l’appareil est garanti même s’il est endommagé par une surtension.
- Assurance-accessoires : tous les accessoires fournis avec le produit (pédale, étui, etc.) sont couverts.
- Usage commercial approuvé : l’équipement acheté pour une utilisation intensive bénéficie aussi de cette protection.
Long & McQuade se réserve le droit de limiter l’achat d’années additionnelles. Les produits d’occasion sont protégés par la Garantie de fiabilité pour une durée de trois mois. Certains articles (logiciels, cymbales, etc.) sont couverts uniquement par la garantie du fabricant. Les biens non durables (cordes, anches, baguettes, piles, tubes, etc.) sont exclus, tout comme les dommages accidentels, la détérioration esthétique et les problèmes causés par l’humidité ou la température. Les haut-parleurs endommagés par un usage excessif ne sont généralement pas couverts. Notre garantie ne compense pas la perte de jouissance. A partir de juin 2018, la garantie de performance n'est plus transférable. Valide seulement au Canada.
Achat d’années additionnelles de garantie
Certains fabricants offrent une garantie de plus d’un an, mais qui est en général limitée et moins avantageuse que la nôtre. Lorsque c’est le cas, la prolongation de notre protection vous sera tout de même profitable, du fait qu’elle est plus complète et pratique.
Vous pouvez acheter des années supplémentaires de notre protection si vous souhaitez en profiter plus longtemps. Les tarifs sont les suivants :
- Produits NEUFS : à partir de 4 % du prix actuel de l’article à l’état neuf par année supplémentaire.
- Produits D’OCCASION : à partir de 4 % du prix actuel de l’article à l’état neuf pour passer initialement de trois mois à un an. À partir de 4 % pour chaque année de plus.
- Guitares : 4 % du prix actuel de l’article à l’état neuf pour passer d’un an à deux. 4 % pour chaque année de plus. Tarif maximum de 45 $. Une mise au point gratuite supplémentaire n’est pas incluse avec l’achat d’années de couverture additionnelles.
- Instruments d’orchestre : 4 % du prix actuel de l’article à l’état neuf pour passer d’un an à deux. 4 % pour chaque année de plus.
