Countless sonic combinations
Make the stage your own with the Zoom G1 FOUR Multi-Effects Pedal. You can take full advantage of over 60 effects with both traditional and boutique bloodlines. Everything from distortion and drive to ring-modulation and even sitar simulations – you can exercise complete creative control on stage, at home, or in the studio. As well as a vast collection of effects, this pedal gives you 13 classic amplifier and cabinet simulations to give you that huge stage sound no matter where you are. From bell-like cleans to searing leads, these simulations are precise recreations based on the legendary tones of leading amplifier designs
You can also make use of the integrated looper, giving you the ability to record up to 30 seconds of playing to create exciting and dynamic multi-part arrangements. The looper is activated using the dedicated button, while the REC/PLAY footswitch handles recording and playback, with the STOP footswitch to cancel both. Overdubbing your loops is also a breeze and can be achieved by simply pressing the REC/PLAY switch during playback. You can also use the G!’s built-in rhythm patterns with the looper, giving you an even more diverse range of sonic possibilities with different choices of tempo.
Intuitive operation
Intelligently designed with powerful features, the G1 also features an incredibly useful auto-save function. This allows you to instantly back up your patches and level settings, meaning you’ll never lose your perfect sound. What’s more, two performance modes provide seamless sound-switching when you’re performing. The PRESELECT mode allows you to jump between patches without affecting the initial or current patch you’re already using, whilst the STOMP mode lets you activate or bypass individual effects with the tap of your foot. When you want to use your G1 FOUR on your desktop, the ergonomic control panel design allows you to dial in tones and adjust settings with precision, perfect for use in the studio.
Experiment and create with Zoom Guitar Lab
Get more out of your pedal. With the free Zoom Guitar Lab software, you have instant access to an ever-expanding collection of artist patches, effects, and more. Guitar Lab gives you the ability to manage and backup all of your patches, and create new patches with an endless amount of effect combinations. You can even load new effects or delete old effects from your device, letting you customise your pedal to suit your needs.
Versatile power options
You can power your G1 FOUR with one of three ways. Using a Zoom AD-16 AC power adapter (not included), with four AA-size batteries, or via USB bus power. When using batteries, the G1 FOUR can be used for up to 18 hours with standard alkaline cells (with the backlit LCD switched off), giving you plenty of time to create and perform before having to change them out. The USB port removes the need for both batteries or an AC power adapter, and provides simple connectivity to your Zoom Guitar Lab software, as well as being used for firmware updates.
