Zoom G1 FOUR Guitar Multi-Effects Processor

The Zoom G1 Four is a versatile multi-effects processor tailored for electric guitarists. Presented in a user-friendly stompbox design, the G1 Four includes an extensive array of effects, amplifier simulations, and additional functionalities, including a 30-second looper and a chromatic tuner. With 68 integrated rhythm patterns, it allows for the incorporation of drum loops, enhancing the looping experience.

The device offers a variety of effects including distortion, chorus, and reverb, along with 13 amp models that replicate classic combinations. Users can chain five effects in any sequence at any time and save these configurations in one of 50 user preset patches. Switching between patches or banks of patches is effortless with a simple tap, allowing for seamless transitions in live or studio settings. Additionally, global settings can be adjusted to maintain consistency across patches, while the three-knob tone stack and overall output level remain unchanged during sound cycling.

The pedal features 60 distinct effects, and users have the capability to modify or incorporate additional effects via their computer. By connecting the pedal to a Mac or Windows device using a USB cable, one can enhance the effects through Zoom’s Guitar Lab software.

The G1 Four features a single 1/4″ instrument input, a 3.5mm input for mobile devices and media players, as well as a combined amplifier and headphone output. It operates on four AA batteries, providing up to 18 hours of usage. Additionally, the device can be powered using a dedicated ZOOM AD-16 AC adapter or via USB.
