I bought MG-400 2 weeks ago. I only play at home and usually with headphones but I wanted decent sound and portability. I updated the firmware, added free custom IRs and it sounds amazing. I managed to dial a few presets to match the tone of my favorite artists in minutes. Not to mention the 60sec loop with overdubs and drum track. My previous modelling amp cost more 10 years ago and can't compete at all. Totally recommend it!

Amazing video. Can you move looper? Can you use it to loop a phrase and mess with settings to find your tone, etc?

@robinbebbington7063 6 ай бұрын

Are you able to confirm if the Quicktone software plays through the computer speakers or do you need to connect a set of speakers to the MG-400 via the stereo outputs? It works fine if I use headphones or to my modelling amp but I don' have my computer in the same area and wanted to use the speakers connected to my mac I assumed if I have set the audio inputs to the MG-400 and output to my bluetooth connected speakers I would hear the guitar effects but I can't get that working. Also I am really struggling to understand some of the connection modes as the manual doesn't provide any details. Any advice of where I could learn the terms?

Can you turn off amp simulations on this device? just in case I use a real amp. Can I also plug in a real pedal such as overdrive and have it work with this device?

Hi, watch the video and you will get an answer to the first question (I also use it with an amp at some point). Regarding the second question - yes you can use other pedals in combination with this device

Would the mg-400 sound good thru an Alto ts-310? I just got mine and I’m mine and I’m on a very limited, so what do you think????

@iguana51 Жыл бұрын

There's a fairly good chance it'll sound good, I would just make sure to go through the 'mode' selector and make sure it's set to either 'Front combo's or 'rear combo' if you're using the effects loop, as I saw some other videos where they tried playing through the front of an amp with the mg400 set to 'Studio Direct' and it comes off much muddier

MG 400 through the Alto will just sound fine. You can't go wrong. 👍

Despite many hardware improvements and new effects and ability to move blocks, MG 300 still sounds better .. not just the amps, but all the modulations, reverb and delays . Hopefully future firmware updates fix that

Do you literally post this exact same comment on every MG-400 video?

@MeTuLHeD Жыл бұрын

@@bcltdinc.8919 Yeah. It's pretty annoying TBH. You got a problem with that? Most manufacturers have email addresses and telephone numbers where you can submit direct feedback on a product. But by all means carry on if you think it helps. However, might I suggest that your statement that the MG-300 sounds better is entirely subjective. I don't hear anything from this modeler that sounds dramatically worse or better. In fact, I think the clean tones are improved. Cheers!

@MeTuLHeD Жыл бұрын

@@bcltdinc.8919 LOL! I called it out because I find it annoying and unproductive. Of course my opinion is subjective. As is yours. That is meaningless. And your hostility isn't a good look. Here's a suggestion. Make a video in which you pit the MG-400 against the MG-300 with side by side comparisons of the same amp models from both. That would go a long way toward providing objective data on which to base a decision. Even better, make it a blind test in which people can't see which is which and then bias will be eliminated. Calm down man. No need to be so pissed off. If you don't want responses, whether positive or negative, then the KZfaq comments section is probably not a good place for that.
