96 kHz sampling recreates true tube amp sound
The tone of tube amplification lies in the mix of rich harmonics that extend far beyond the range of human hearing (20 kHz). Because the ZOOM G1 uses 96 kHz sampling, it provides a flat frequency response from 20 Hz up to an amazing 40 kHz. This allows for an accurate model of the delicate harmonic structure of the distortion produced by a tube amp. The dynamic range is also excellent, thanks to 24-bit A/D/A conversion. Every detail of your playing technique, whether picked or fingered, emerge with full clarity.
ZFX-3--the new-generation 32-bit DSP
The heart of any multi-effect device is its processor and decoder section. The G1 features the Zoom's ZFX-3 chip. The 32-bit architecture ensures outstanding performance and allows smooth and detailed signal processing. This is a new generation DSP that brings out the character of your instrument without restrictions, helping you pursue the ultimate in guitar sound.
21 amp/stomp box modeling choices covering a range of popular models
By digitally simulating the clipping action of analog devices such as tubes and diodes, the G1 faithfully duplicates the distortion of tube amps and vintage effects. The choices range from models that made guitar history such as Fender, Marshall and Vox to popular modern amps including Mesa/Boogie, Peavey, and Diezel. An acoustic simulator is also included, so your electric instrument can sound like an acoustic guitar when the fancy strikes.
54 high-quality effects to fire your imagination
A total of eight modules provide 54 effect types ranging from standard to advanced. Duplicate the historic sounds of the MXR Dynacomp, Vox Wah, or Crybaby Wah. Apply equalization in three bands. Add spaciousness and depth with two types of chorus. Simulate the acoustics of a room or a concert hall with five types of reverb. All effects are designed for real-life musical applications. Have the Harmonized Pitch Shifter play along in key. Use long delay and echo settings of up to 5 seconds. A multitude of high-performance choices opens up totally new territory in this class.
40 presets give you the sound of the pros
Utilize settings for duplicating the tone of well-known amps and stomp boxes, settings that are modeled on the signature sound of famous guitarists, as well as completely original ZOOM effect sound creations. Right out of the box, you can enjoy professional-quality guitar sound. And when creativity strikes, a separate area capable of storing another 40 user patches is also provided.
Simple and friendly user interface
Editing an effect is as simple as choosing the target with the selector knob and adjusting the parameter with the value knob. Let your imagination roam free and put your ideas into practice without being hampered by cumbersome controls.
Drum machine with PCM sound sources
Realistic drum sounds derived from PCM sources are arranged in a variety of rhythm patterns for different musical genres. The 40 rhythm variations include the steady 8-beat of Rock and Pop, funky 16-beat, a "Jazzy" 4-beat, some great shuffle for Blues sessions, and many more choices. Rhythm training is a cinch, and tap input allows you to specify the tempo easily.
Auto-chromatic tuner for guitar
The guitar tuner can be called up instantly by pushing the two foot switches together. High-brightness LED indicators make the note readout easy to see also on a dark stage. The possibility for mute tuning without sound output offers further convenience.
Ultra low noise design on a par with studio equipment
Specifications such as a signal-to-noise ratio of 110 dB and noise floor of -98 dBm demonstrate a level of performance that's not usually seen in units of this class. Background noise is a thing of the past, resulting in superbly transparent sound. ZOOM's original noise reduction (ZNR) removes noise in playing pauses, while maintaining a natural release even on the tail of sustained notes.
AC/DC allows use just about anywhere
Thanks to its circuit design optimized for low voltage operation, the unit will run for 12 hours continuously on a set of four IEC R6 (size AA) batteries. The AC adaptor (AD-0006) can be plugged in for extended studio work, whereas on stage you never need to worry about AC power.
Expression pedal adds another dimension to your play
With the built-in expression pedal, you can control effect parameters in real time. Set the mood with wah, vary the pitch shift, or adjust the volume dynamics. Go beyond conventional pedal effects by varying drive gain or modulation rate, and adjusting the mixing ratio of delay and reverb. The choice is yours. The PEDAL ASSIGN key that makes it a snap to select the function operated by the pedal.

Great Value for the Price!,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Zoom G1X Guitar Multi Effects Pedal with Expression Pedal (Electronics)
I purchased this as a gift for an advanced guitar player. I own an older Zoom model, and have always appreciated the brand for its value. This model has many of the same features as more expensive effects pedals, such as a built-in tuner, drum sounds, tons of effects, and the ability to personalize and store effects. And it costs a few hundred less!
We especially love the artist simulations (Pearl Jam, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, etc.) and the ease of use. There are two things we didn't love: that several effects will not work in combination with the drum beats, and that the pedal and selector buttons are so small - slightly hard to control when you're standing up and playing. But overall, wouldn't trade it for anything!

As Good As It Gets For The Money,
By Mad-Dog (Tucson, AZ) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Zoom G1X Guitar Multi Effects Pedal with Expression Pedal (Electronics)
Costs around $20 less than the competing DigiTech RP90 DigiTech RP90 Guitar Multi Effects Pedal and is just as good, if not better. These low-cost, entry-level, all-in-one pedals are ideal for beginner to intermediate level players. Saves you a lot of time, money, cables, batteries, headaches! Based on the description, I wasn't sure if A/C adapter was included, but it is. Gave 4 Stars instead of 5 because of the lightweight plastic case and the small congested footswitches.

Very nice effects pedal,
By NawlinsPicker (New Orleans) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Zoom G1X Guitar Multi Effects Pedal with Expression Pedal (Electronics)
I purchased this pedal and am very pleased with it. The quality of the effects is really very good, better than some of the high priced individual stomp box pedals made by the "big name" competitors.
The pedal seems sturdy, and is not that difficult to figure out how to use. There are two banks of effects, pre-programmed combinations of effects, and a bank for the owner/user to create and store their own combinations in any order desired. The drum beat section is very good, too. The modulation effects, phaser, flanger, chorus, etc.. sound pretty good and are highly adjustable. I find the reverbs in this pedal to be exceptional, considerable better than the "big name" pedals for many times the price. I found that the reverb and delay alone on this pedal are worth the price. Additionally, the ring modulator effect is fun to play around with. All in all, this is a good pedal and a lot of fun to play around with. It is a very good way to sample all of the types of effect sounds available at a very reasonable price. If mine were to break, I would definitly get another one.
