Review: At this price range, I don't know what compares. - There's no shortage of people gushing about this thing, and they're right. Solid build quality, awesome simulations, the amps sound real, it's flexible, etc., etc. all at a price that's well below what you'd expect. Highly recommended, 5 stars. But I've had it a while, and no gear is perfect, so here's some cons. 1. It doesn't do everything everyone wants it to do. At least not out of the box. I participate in a user's group on FB, and my, there are some demands. For instance, the preset switching is... different (more later), so they want that changed, and it's not going to happen. The built-in presets were developed by several different pro guitarists, and their volume levels aren't going to be normalized. It's never going to have a true bypass option. It's never going to have analogue reverb, or grow an XLR out or a fourth footswitch, or stop other players from using other pedals with it. (There is a vocal faction of that community who seem to have chosen it specifically so their rig looks minimalistic, and they hate seeing it defiled, say, next to a fuzz pedal, almost as much as they hate the limited fuzz choices the unit has. Odd). 2. The amps modeling is awesome sounding, but NU-X hypes their White-Box modeling as being very responsive and realistic in the controls. In reality , the knobs on the amps sometimes sound like they aren't doing much at all. IDK. You can use them to dial in some sweet-ass tones, and you can dial in some just ass tones, but unlike real amps, the difference in the two isn't from accidentally bumping some knob from 4 to 5. 3. One of the main reasons I chose it was its send/return jacks. Do I wish they were stereo? Not at this price point, I don't. But I do wish I could put them in between them after the preamp and before power amp, where FX loops usually go. There are power amp specific controls, like presence and bias, and the S/R, like any block, can go anywhere else in the chain you want, but not only are there no separate pre/power amp blocks, the amp and IR (speaker cabinet) blocks are locked together. You can turn them on or off individually, if you just want the amp sim or an IR loader, but the IR is always the next thing after the amp, no exceptions. 4. Speaking of cabinets, the IRs seem lifeless. Not to worry, there are plenty of good free ones out there, and plenty of open slots to load them. 5. The preset switching takes some getting used to. There are 128 that are, for some reason, numbered 01A to 32D, and each has three "scenes." The scenes will all have the same effects with the same settings, in the same order, but each scene allows you to have any combination of effects engaged. So, when the chorus turns to your big solo, you can turn 3 pedals on and 2 off with a single stomp. All presets and scenes are user writable, and the factory ones can be recalled individually or all at once with relative ease. I'm going to quit now. I had some less talked about plus sides I wanted to get to, but this is long already. It's not my intention to talk anyone out of this unit, because it's the biggest bang for your buck right now, without question, and I love mine. I just wanted to point out where it's not perfect, hoping that when you buy it, you're a well-informed consumer with realistic expectations. One more thing. Of the lesser-discussed upsides to this unit that I was hoping to get to, you have to check out the MIDI this thing has. I said above that it doesn't do everything **out of the box,** and can't grow any extra switches, but it does have 85 different parameters assignable to MIDI, so...
Review: Show me a better amp modeler in this price range! - I’ve been playing guitar and recording music for 25 years. This is not a beginner’s piece of equipment even though it’s affordable. This is pro level gear. After spending 6 months with the POD GO and Bias Amp and struggling to get realistic crunch tones from either of them I finally gave up and started my quest for something that could produce a realistic Marshall sound. Something that could give me a realistic Plexi through to JCM 2000. I did hours of research and settled on the NUX Mg30. So glad I did! After comparing it side by side with the POD GO it was no contest. Within 5 minutes on the NUX I had a convincing Plexi tone, something I couldn’t do in 6 months on the POD GO. Line 6 products have this nasally shrillness that can’t be dialed out with EQ. That’s ok for high gain tones and cleans but Edge of breakup stuff sounds terrible on Line 6 products to my ear. I sold the POD GO. I couldn’t be happier with the NUX. FX sound great…as good or better than the POD. The NUX does everything I need it to do and it sounds amazing doing it. The interface is the best in the business…including fractal, quad cortex, Line 6, and Kemper. It’s so easy and intuitive. You really can’t go wrong with the MG30. I would have paid twice what it cost me and still would have thought it was a bargain!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is there any gap in sound output when switching presets?  I just got an MG 300 and the sound cuts out briefly during preset switching.**
A: Got this as a gift for my husband and he said no. He said it’s very crisp when switching, no latency.

**Q: Hey can this be connected to PA?**
A: Absolutely YES. I highly recommend the nuX MG30 also.

**Q: Can you plug this directly into a speaker cabinet to replace an amp, if so what wattage?**
A: You can use the 4 cable method to set this up to an amp via the send/return function.The unit also has a L/R output to cabs as well.

**Q: It has balanced output?**
A: You may need a passive DI to transform the unbalanced outputs to balanced outputs if the range to the PA is big enough. This shouldnt be much of an issue tough.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pro Level Stuff
*by D***E on January 27, 2023*

This multi effect unit is incredibly versatile and has enough in it to be a touring rig. Compact, sturdy, and most of all reliable. NUX updates software constantly giving you access to new sounds periodically. Including new amps and effects it is expendable as there are many foot switches that you can add to this unit buying separately. But it is amazing to know that it comes with the an external switch that has 2 sturdy foot switches. Regardless of what guitar snobs say it is a great unit. Most important. The price itself is an amazing value. And the recording quality is amazing.
