PRODUCT DESCRIPTION 
 Zoom MS50G MultiStomp Guitar Pedal 

 FROM THE MANUFACTURER 
 

Zoom's MS-50G MultiStomp Guitar Pedal is the first of its kind. It offers the power of a multi-effects pedal and flexibility of an amp modeler in a single stompbox design. With 55 classic stompbox effects and amp models, easy-to-use interface, auto-chromatic tuner and versatile power options, guitar players will be astonished with how much this pedal offers.

SINGLE STOMPBOX DESIGN
With a heavy duty, die-cast body, the MS-50G has the classic look of a single analog stompbox. It features a large LCD and analog-style cursor keys/parameter knobs that together form an easy-to-use graphical interface. This intuitive design makes creating, saving and rearranging the effect chain a breeze and provides easy navigation in live and studio settings.

Offering the power of a multi-effects pedal and flexibility of an amp modeler. View larger

Use up to six stompbox and amp effects simultaneously. View largerAMP SIMULATION
A highly refined sigmoid curve clipper re-creates the smooth clipping of a tube amp's waveform. This allows the MS-50G to simulate amplifier sounds, including clean, crunch and full-gain drive tones that are authentic to the original models while maintaining the nuances of picking and strumming techniques.

MODEL YOUR SOUND
The MS-50G's eight super-real amp models range from vintage gear to the latest trends in amp technology, each with its own distinct cabinet modeling that can be used to alter its tone characteristics. In addition, you can pair any of the available amp models with any of the available cabinet models and let you're creativity run wild. Power a VX JMI 2x12 cabinet with a Delux-R amp, or combine the MS 1859 amp and the DZ Drive 4x12 cabinet. It's up to you! The MS-50G also provides you with the versatility to match the output of a given amp/cabinet model to whatever you're playing through (Line, Combo Front, Stack Front, Combo Power Amp, Stock Power Amp).

THE MOST REALISTIC SOUNDS TO DATE
The all-new ZFX-IV DSP effects processor boasts amazing power and clarity, upgrading everything from sound to functionality over previous ZFX versions. By using 32-bit floating-point processing, the MS-50G can produce sounds that are more realistic than ever before.

Program which patches are recalled and the order in which they appear ALL THE CLASSIC STOMPS IN ONE
The MS-50G offers 47 diverse types of effects, including some of the world's most popular stompbox guitar pedals and rack-mounted processors. The pedal's wide range of effects includes distortion, compression, modulation, delay and reverb.

UP TO SIX SIMULTANEOUS EFFECTS
With the MS-50G, you can use up to six stompbox and amp effects simultaneously and arrange them in any order you like. This allows you the freedom to build complex tones, as well as the ability to bring individual elements in and out of the effects chain as you like.

PRESETS RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX
Right out-of-the-box, the MS-50G allows you to create and store up to 50 of your original patches. To get you started, 30 of these patches are preprogrammed and form a versatile collection of guitar sounds that include some of the world's greatest stompbox and amp effects.

PICK YOUR PATCH ORDER
With the MS-50G, you can program which patches are recalled and the order in which they appear. For example, you could select three patches'(A) CLEAN TONE, (B) HEAVY RIFF and (C) LEAD SOLO'and program the MS-50G to cycle through only those three tones each time you press the footswitch.

SMALLER BOARDS, BIGGER TONES
Perfect for use in combination with traditional stompboxes, the MS-50G can be added to your pedalboard to decrease the size and complexity of your setup, while expanding your system's effects and modeling capabilities.

PRECISE TUNING
The pedal's highly accurate auto-chromatic tuner offers smooth, real-time response, which makes turning your guitar effortless. When you're in the middle of a performance or practicing alone, simply hold down the pedal's footswitch to start getting your strings back in tune. In addition, the MS-50G's LCD makes the tuner easy to see on a dark stage. You can also tune silently in the tuner's MUTE mode or with all effects bypassed in its BYPASS mode.

POWER PROOF
Providing versatile power options, the MS-50G operates via AC adapter (sold separately), as well as battery power. Two standard AA batteries (included) provide up to seven hours of continuous mono input use and up to five hours of continuous operation when using the stereo inputs.

Sound Affects

 I'm playing through a custom made guitar through a Line 6 DT25 amplifier, I've got it set up for basically a Fender Deluxe type clean tone. Just a nice neutral tone. If I bring in the effect, this is an effect called Silver Haze that has a lot of different components, there are actually six different pedals in this. Now in this effect we've got a noise gate, we've got a vibe effect, we've got an overdrive, we've got a delay, there's a variety of different things going on

 We can step over to the vibe effect, here it's on, very easily bring that in and out. We can also bring our overdrive in and out. So during the course of a song you can be bringing effects in and out, you can have six of them in a chain, set them all up for what you want to do and then very easily switch them on and off. Whether you're looking for a pedal that will do a variety of individual effects like delay, modulation, overdrive or fuzz, or you want something that will do multi effects for you and you don't have a lot of room on your pedal board or you want to just grab one pedal, throw it in your gig bag and take it with you to the show, the Zoom Multistomp MS50G is a great choice

 The MS50G has 47 different effects types as well as eight different modeled amplifiers so there are a lot of different tones on board. With up to six effects in a chain you can switch them on and off individually while you're playing so you can bring effects in and out during the course of a song without changing presets. Speaking of presets, you have up to 50 presets available on board and you can set the foot switch up so you can scroll through those either consecutively or in whatever order that you want. The tuner in the Multistomp is particularly versatile, not only will it do standard tuning EADGBE but it will do a variety of drop tunings and dadgad tuning as well

There are a ton of features in the MS50G, too many to get into in this video here, but a few that jumped out of me include tap tempo for the delays, there's a USB port for updating firmware, you can change the order of the effects in a chain or you can change the number of effects in a chain, so it's a very versatile pedal that will give you a lot of different tones. Let me give you an example of how flexible the Multistomp is

Zoom MS-50G Guitar Multi-FX Pedal Demo - Sweetwater Sound

 The choruses have a little too much feedback. The crazier effects are useless to me, but they would’ve delighted 14 year old me. I like the compressors and noise gate options. The few drive/distortion/fuzz options I like are the Sweet Honey, RC Booster, Octafuzz, and Boss models

 I hate that I can’t easily change patches on my PC. A lot of the distortions are far off the mark. I have two EHX Big Muffs and neither version on this pedal comes close. For the most part, it doesn’t emulate analog drive very well

 I like the compressors and noise gate options. The few drive/distortion/fuzz options I like are the Sweet Honey, RC Booster, Octafuzz, and Boss models. The delays are fine.

  I keep this on my board for the delays, compressors, flanger, and select distortions, but I regret spending money on the Zoom.

Sounds too digital

 I'll add that to let you hear the sound that you can get out of the benders along with this country sound on this Zoom pedal. So let me stand up here so I can activate the G Bender. Okay, now if you want to do a little bit more faster stuff. Okay, now let's switch this over to an echo sound, and that's just to give you a little idea of what the country sound

 See how that sounds, too? The first pedal on the chain is a compressor. I'm going to pull up my level, and the sensitivity, I'm going to pull it back just a hair. Now, let's just see what this sounds like. I don't know what it's going to sound like

 There's three knobs here, very straightforward. There's your tone. Select how much you want to put on each one by clockwise or counterclockwise. Very simple

 If you want to set your sensitivity and your tone and level, here's the button to do that. There's two pages here. Very simple, straightforward. This button here, just press it

REVIEW - ZOOM MS-50G MULTISTOMP

I spent a few hours with it, and got the hang of things. I recommend using the tonelib zoom app for it, clicking and dragging beats using the knobs when you don't have to. It's been about 5 years since I used a digital effects processor, and I'm not really impressed with how far they've come along. It could be that I've joined the ranks of the EVH Amplification tube amp snobs, and going back isn't an option

 I wanted something portable that I could use, but this Zoom product isn't compatible with the Guitar Lab like it's big brothers are, so you'll need an amplifier. Just not what I was looking for.

Not an alternative for Audio Interface.

 Right, so what we've got is we've got an effects chain, works like a normal effects chain would, so we can scroll left and right through it. Currently we've got about 5 effects in the chain, we can have up to 8, and you can run any 8 in any order, so you can have 8 distortions, you can have 8 delays, blah blah blah, we've got reverbs, modulation effects, samplers, synths, there's a roll in there, 47 and we've got 8 amps. So what we're going to do is we're going to play a clean tone, which is just my amp tone. So that's our naked control track, and then we're going to go to the front of our chain and put on our distortion pedal, see what that sounds like

 This is kind of a higher gain setting, we've also got a diesel head in there, and a 2 rock, few marshals, few fenders, won't go through them all, but we'll definitely go through this one. So the control without, then with. Right, so that's one of them, let's try another one. Acoustic

 So let's listen to the delay, as it lives in the effects loop. So first without, and then with. Now with. You're currently clean? Yep

 I think we've got a copy of a Proko Rat in there, which is called the Squeaker. So let's see what that sounds like off, and then on. So moving over, we've got a noise gate in there, always good to have a noise gate in your chain, really good one on this, and then we've got the amp models. Now on this we've got like extreme overdrive, super distortion, or whatever it's called

Zoom MS-50G Guitar Effects Pedal Review - Sound Affects

Zoom stuff always sounds good and is inexpensive. This box can provide a decent live tone. I would add a small cab sim pedal after it if going direct to pa even though it has can sim built in. Found it sounded better live that way

Not bad

.. once you put these pedals in your own patches you can permanently save them with appropriate levels .

. you think you are finished with your pedal board but in a few weeks you are back at it searching for another effect ..

If you are an electric guitar player, you know how it is ... you think you are finished with your pedal board but in a few weeks you are back at it searching for another effect 

Pleasant Surprise - Good Pedal

 it is also VERY easy to learn, as I figured it out without a manual within a few minutes with very little effort. The amp sims are decent, good sounds can be easily found and made. Created sounds using amp sims do change somewhat when going direct in, as 'line in' selected on amp sim config. page can mean no cabinet, which often goes a LONG way to defining tone

 You can get approximations of about any guitarist you like fairly easily, if you know what they use, and creative ideas are many. Many effects are quite usable, some are just worthless gimmicks (if you update to 100 effects) though. I would have by far appreciated more USEFUL effects like delays or reverbs in the update as opposed to 30+ gimmicky, trinket one-shot sounds no one has a use for. Getting rid of noise created by some effects (too much effect/overdriven or pushing some amp sims or distortion OD's too far) requires use of the noise gate(s)

crit and tips.

  It sounds better on my guitar but it doesn't sound all that bad on my bass either. I typically buy bass pedals and cross my fingers that it sounds ok on both my guitar and bass. This definitely sounds better on my guitar but you can add EQ pedals to the mix and change the tone a bit to adjust

.but it's still not horrible and again for what I paid for it I think it's awesome.  It sounds better on my guitar but it doesn't sound all that bad on my bass either. I typically buy bass pedals and cross my fingers that it sounds ok on both my guitar and bass

I've only had this for a day or two but it seems well worth the $100. Make sure you update the firmware first thing to get all the new effects.  I'm swapping it out for my current tuner and keeping the tuner function but adding a ton of new effects to play with. Additionally if I don't want to bring my entire pedal board with me this can fit in my guitar/bass case and I can just go like that

Additionally if I don't want to bring my entire pedal board with me this can fit in my guitar/bass case and I can just go like that.  I spent the first hour or two just checking out each of the different effects and I'd say most of them are pretty usable. Some of the more bizarre ones (bit cruncher etc

Good bang for the buck and a lot of fun in a small box.

 The effects are really amazing, most of them. Good fake Rat. I'm almost sure it goes even heavier than a real one. It magically turns into a 60s fuzz when you go to the neck pup, just like a real Rat

No AC30...No Fender 2x10 Dealie, wotever that cool-sounding amp was called...
