ZOOM MS-50G+ MultiStomp guitar effects pedal with 100 effects for stage, studio, and recording— any effect chain can be saved as a preset

The media could not be loaded. There is a bit of a learning curve with this unit, but once I'd edited a couple of patches it soon became clear that the Zoom MS50G+ is a versatile and great sounding effects pedal. By only utilising 2-3 effects in series i soon created 20 very usable patches including a vintage sounding tremolo and reverb combo, a Floyd type delay, nice rock overdrive rhythm and solo patches, and cool backwards delay and step sequencer effects. The built in Tuner is very accurate, and the up down patch buttons are just big enough to tap with my size 10 feet. The unit has a steel casing and seems tough enough for gig use, shame the editing app is only for apple users! This short video demos three of the patches, filmed one handed with my mobile!

Build quality:Good sturdy build..

Zoom MS-50G+ Stereo MultiStomp Guitar Pedal:My impressions of it are very disappointing. I was dismayed to find that there is no PC software available to edit the patches. I was also appalled that they don't include the power adapater, or even a USB cable. How stingy is that?! As for the effects, some of them are mediocre at best. The labels for the encoders are printed in a stupid place where you can't see them from the normal viewing angle. All they had to do was print them above the knobs instead of below! And then there is the archaic display tchnology. It looks like a display from 1980s and lacks sufficient contrast to make it easy to see and read especially from certain angles. Why is Zoom Corp always decades behind the times with its display panels? I found this device extremely user-unfriendly in deed, and ended up getting rid of it and replacing it with its predecessor: the three-knob version, which I much prefer, even without the four foot-operable pads. I find the predecessors more attractive, too with their metallic finish. The white paint on this new model looks rubbish, to me.

Bought this on basis of zoom saying there would be app support.....no mention that would be iOS only......so if you have android only way to use the app is to root your phone which is very dodgy. And without the app the pedal is kinda useless no way with the interface are you going to be able to do patchs on the fly. For any apple user this would be an amazing bit of kit for a dawless setup. But if your on android it may as well be a brick. Also feels cheap on the black scroll and memory buttons. Overall beyond disappointed.
