I'm able to get just the right amount of clean guitar sound with some amazing crisp reverb or delay as needed.
Saved different patches, some with chorus, some with flange, nice reggae sounds, grunty distortions that work on my acoustic without feeding back.]]> From Here to There freebieman https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/zoom-g2/paged/3/#post-327865 https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/zoom-g2/paged/3/#post-327083 Thu, 23 Apr 2009 14:09:59 +0000 http://guitarpatches.haax.se/]]> From Here to There Nuno https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/zoom-g2/paged/3/#post-327083 https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/zoom-g2/paged/3/#post-327082 Thu, 23 Apr 2009 14:02:16 +0000
Any idea where I might find some settings/patches which will suit an acoustic guitar?]]> From Here to There freebieman https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/zoom-g2/paged/3/#post-327082 https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/zoom-g2/paged/2/#post-327077 Thu, 23 Apr 2009 10:01:02 +0000
Now, on distortion? I don't like so much those tones in the G2. I never used it with the acoustic (it has not a mic installed) but I saw other people that used it (mainly buskers).

I could be wrong but the frequency range is very similar in both guitars, isn't? A bass is different, but for guitars... did he mean the frequency of the harmonics?

But it is a pedal effect, the store should allow you try it before purchasing. In fact I always do it (at least I had a very specific idea on the pedal or I already know its response).]]> From Here to There Nuno https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/zoom-g2/paged/2/#post-327077 https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/zoom-g2/paged/2/#post-327041 Thu, 23 Apr 2009 01:14:02 +0000
I mainly play acoustic guitar and occasionally want to add some distortion to a song to give it some punch, part way through the song.
After talking to the sales guy at the local guitar store he led me to believe that the frequency range and accuracy in a dedicated acoustic pedal will be much better than that found in an electric guitar pedal, for reproducing that acoustic sound. Is this true or does it come down to fine tuning the settings to match the guitar being used?]]> From Here to There freebieman https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/zoom-g2/paged/2/#post-327041 https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/zoom-g2/paged/2/#post-220694 Mon, 08 Jan 2007 03:32:34 +0000
I think there's a few threads knocking around that compares the two, and quite possibly Reaper (which is also free and does more than Audacity) as well. Audacities handling of VSTs seems a bit suspect though, so I'll probably make the change when I start needing them. If you're going to be using VSTs very soon it might make sense to just skip Audacity and use Cubase or Reaper.]]> From Here to There Misanthrope https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/zoom-g2/paged/2/#post-220694 https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/zoom-g2/paged/2/#post-220688 Mon, 08 Jan 2007 03:13:43 +0000
I like the Audacity and I used to digitalize old cassette or MiniDisc recordings. Is Audacity better than this Cubase version? I think I was using an old version with a friend when I was learning keyboard some years ago...

While I'm in this thread, I'll post this little beauty I found the other day. It's a site for Zoom G2 patches. It's just started out so there's not a lot there at the moment, but there's a couple more each day and the ones that are there are really good. Great site! Again, not only for the patches, also for the comments on patches! They give advices to understand and use some effects!]]> From Here to There Nuno https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/zoom-g2/paged/2/#post-220688 https://guitarnoise.forum/from-here-to-there/zoom-g2/paged/2/#post-220549 Sun, 07 Jan 2007 20:44:09 +0000 ASIO4ALL drivers), and Audacity... that's the essence of it.

In a little more detail:
When you plug the Zoom into the computer it takes over all the input and output settings automatically - you'll no longer get the sounds from the speakers, it'll all be through the amp or headphones you have connected to the Zoom. This is great, because you don't need to worry about latency - each track is recorded with a little latency, but it's always exactly the same amount so they are all perfectly synched. You just have to make sure the track you're recording is not played as you record it, as then you'll notice the latency and it'll put you off. It's an option in Audacity called 'software playthrough' or 'hardware playthrough' depending on your setup. When you unplug it again, it puts all your settings back to normal.

Shout if there's anything there that doesn't make sense, or anything I've not covered.
