Zoom G2.1u Options

[Lithuanian]

Hey Jerry! I also have this wonderful peace of equipment by my feet. I was just wondering if you could share some of your patches you use with the community?

I use this same pedal - had it since Sept 2005. There is a great Yahoo Groups dedicated to it that has alot of patches in it (I wrote a U2 patch thats in there(Streets)), and other user info -

But the best site I've found for the G2 patches are here:

http://www.haax.se/manualsite/index.php?unit=G2

Many are duplicated on the 2 sites. One thing I have found is you really have to tweak the patches to your equipment(I have a Fender Strat and a Gibson Les Paul, and they sound totally different, so I tweak depending on the guitar I am playing)

Right now my G2.1u is in pieces - I am replacing one of the switches and waiting for the part, but I know this pedal pretty well, so if you have any questions, feel free to PM me.

Hi Lithuanian,
currently I'm using the Korg Pandora PX4D, most of the time, for GMC.
The Zoom unit is on my pedalboard - another topic about this will coming soon, I hope - and I use it sometimes to get some special FX, as backup unit, etc.
I will post here some preset for the G2.1u tomorrow. I like the Mesa simulation that I used for my Odd time signature metal 2 lesson.

Agreed 100%.
