BUDGET TONE | Valeton GP100

- Hey guys! Welcome to BUDGET TONE. Today we are looking at the Valeton GP 100. Coming in at $149.99, it doesn't get more budget in this price range. I was super impressed with the build quality, and I think for the price, it's really hard to beat one of these!

#budgettone #gp100 #valeton
Thanks for tuning in guys, sub if you haven't already! 🙌
awesome content.kindly chk out nux mg300 also
I just purchased the valeton gp100 i like all yoir reveiws i bought this because of your reveiw on but my question is how do i put third party irs into tha valeton
Through the editing software
Thats how i been trying to do it do i open the ir file then drag it in the comment part cuz that aint workin
I cant remember off the top of my head, but it should be something like go into the cab section, and then in the list of cabs you have an option to add one
That thing for its price sounds ridiculously good! This unit is more than adequate for beginners. Hell, I had a crate and a metal zone when I first started and this destroys that.
True!
It's also usb interface, right?! So i don't need to buy interface if i buy this?!
Park and an MT-2
I just bought one on Amazon Prime Day for $111.00, thanks for the review!
Nice!
Finally a metal guy bypassing the ass clean tones and going straight to the distortion 🤘
Just snagged this on Amazon on sale
For 108$ excited to see how it holds up
Love Valeton Products...Great Demo you never disapoint Taylor ;D Cheers
I'd like to see a shootout between a top tier budget modeler vs a old rp360xp you can find used for around $50 or less.
Where can you find an rp360xp for 50?!?!?
@@thedangersofoxygen135 craigslist
I would like to see that. I have never used that one. But there are many options out there just as good as this device as far as modeling goes with prices dropping all the time. And that's all this peddle is really good for modeling effects and the DI is OK. The looper and drums are crap. No undue button on looper. wtf is that... The DI is decent if you lower your output below what you would normally have it on. The selling point for me was the expression peddle, looper, drums and DI all in one. The peddle is OK but its sweep is too narrow and feels weird. Drums w/looper are a joke. There are certainly better choices out there.
I am a zoom fanboy when it comes to sound... But Valeton got me on this one, they've added an audio interface
What's up bro? It would be awesome a VS comparison between this unit and the new NUX MG-300
I have shootout with this and ge150 soon. Nux hasn't contacted me, but if they do, I'll shootout against that as well
Thanks for showing this. It helped me decide if I should get one. I decided yes! While it certainly has its limitations and issues for the price it's pretty damn cool. Most of the effects are pretty good. I have been able to create and save some nice sounds and tones that I use all the time. For someone who can't afford a ton of peddles, this is a nice option. The looper is just OK. The drums suck although they have added more. Be aware customer support is almost non-existent. I had a small issue that wasn't addressed in the manual and I had to rattle some cages to get any response. I did get my issue fixed and the company seems like they will continue updating this device. I love this thing. It has given me far more options when recording at home. And when I want to go jam and don't want to bring the kitchen sink. This thing is a lifesaver for me. Things like this allow me to save up for the more pricy musical items on my list.
Have you tried connecting the pitch-shifting to the expression pedal? If so, does it work similarly to a Whammy pedal and does it sound good? Thanks!
@@TarenLeitzke
I have not tried that but I will. TBH now that I have spent lots of time on it I wish I never bought it.
Issues that drive me nuts.
There is NO undo button for the lopper. No update to fix that coming. So if you rec one phrase and then another and make a mistake there is no way to go back you have to start over. I was able to confirm this with tech support finally. This makes this looper trashy and I end up using another peddle to loop.
The drums do not output when you record. to your PC direct. While I don't need this often I l find this lame. Again making the looper trashy. Again, I end up adding more old peddles back to my board. There are other issues with the drums and looper I won't get into for brevity.
The effects sound great but when recording I have to record dry. If I use any effects I get a very slight crackling noise. It's faint but easily heard with headphones when mixing.
I spent a long time making sure this wasn't a cable, or my instruments, or just one effect, or a setting, etc. It wasn't. It is the device. It renders it useless for recording for me. This was crushing as I was getting good sounds and working on a project. It's very prone to electrical interference.
In short, I have gone back to recording through my amps usb out and using all the peddles I was using before with no crackling. If I'm jamming I do use it occasionally. I should have spent the extra money and bought a better device.
If you just jamming its fine. If you want to use the internal looper or record directly to your PC its problematic at best.
I have had numerous other issues I won't bother you here with but needless to say it just sits in the corner now unless I am jamming outside my home with someone. Even then I bring my other looper.
This kind of tech is great but this device was not made or designed by anyone who plays music.
@@funkymonkey8174 Thanks for the detailed reply! I don't frequently use a looper and I don't currently record, but that's good to know about those issues if I decide to get this and ever get into recording. I mostly want to use the pedal for Whammy-style pitch-shifts. I was comparing the size of this to other units and I also become worried, with how thin it is, whether the pedal would have adequate sweep to function well as a pitch-shifter. I have also heard some good things about the Zoom G1X Four and found a few videos demoing the Whammy effect on it and it sounds good, so I'm leaning towards either the Zoom G1X Four or this Valeton one at the moment. Generally the Zoom G1X Four is also cheaper, which is nice, though the Valeton is currently on sale from an eBay seller which brings the price down so they are almost identical. Let me know how you like the pitch-shifter or other pedal effects if you try them out later. Thanks again!
@@TarenLeitzke I will try that in the next day or so. I will let you know! You're justified in your worry over the thinness. This bothered me right away when I went to use it. The peddle itself is small and feels awkward. And it does not have the sweep of other traditional expression peddles I have used. However, there are some settings to tweak on it I have not tried.
@@funkymonkey8174 Hi, I was just wondering if you have tried pitch-shifting with this pedal yet? I received a reply from Valeton on a question I asked on another video and they said the "Whammy option is not possible at the moment", so I was wondering based off that if it's even possible to connect the pitch-shifting effect to the pedal. Are you able to control the pitch-shifting with the pedal at all? If that is possible, I'm leaning towards giving this pedal a try, but if not then I will likely go with a Zoom or older Digitech pedal. Thanks for any information!
i bought one last year. out of the box it sounds nice, but it really comes to life with some decent impulse responses. i use the fortin 4x12 mic'ed with a tlm102, as recommende by Ola.
Where did you get it?
@@jeffjarquin3570 do you mean the valeton, or the ir from ola?
@@jurgensteffens4008 yeah sorry for not specifying, I meant the fortin IR you mentioned, I would like to import it to my gp 100
Nice.
Next, Nux MG300
I'm still using an OLD Digitec multi effects pedal that I bought new back in like '98' it has a great expression pedal, and my favorite patches along with "bypass" one touch stomp! So my JCM800 2203 can breathe. W/O the delay-reverb-distortion-phazer I use as pathway #1. One of the best features is on a dark stage you can still see everything that's goin on, the expression pedal is assignable as well for say: amount of delay, or what have you....volume pedal etc..you have your whammy effect..& of course wah-wah..& what KIND of wah you want...(yah-yah is a backwards wah) & others. I couldn't possibly go into all that the Gen X3 can do! But one of the coolest features is: you can throw it in it's little padded bag with no amp needed whatsoever and still have a decent sound going to the board and out of the P.A. it has 60 watts of it's own power stage & a 6L6 actual tube, which sounds very good coming back through your on stage monitors! I'm not going to lie, it's best with a good head run through the effects loop, or straight into the front of the amp! Drum machine for practicing alone or recording, but my favorite thing is running a CD or whatever into the purpose built jack, and you can isolate a part your having trouble learning, & slow it down to whatever speed you want W/O losing the PITCH of the original recording! Amazing for fast chops & passages in songs. Genius! 200 patches out of the box, & 200 custom user interface features you set between the black & red channels for your own stuff. Nowadays you can pick one up on Reverb for $50-$60 bucks. Downside is the Harmon Group doesn't have any online content to update your unit like it did when new. But hey now you can use your phone to copy patches nowadays! It's all there, & all I need with the 200 user presets!!
V⚡
Would that be the Digitech Rp7 multi effects unit?
I want the metal case and all the amp sims of the Valeton GP100, with the GUI and audio interface of the NUX MG300 but with MIDI-in so I can automate changes. Whoever get's this done first below 160 EUR gets my money.
😂😂💯💯
Adding MiDi will make the prices go up
@@jorgeguitar2540 sure but it's not that expensive.
The built in pedal has the on/off function (for Wha on/off). The external expressionpedal lack that funktion.
nonsense, brah! The external expression pedal does work but you have to really press it down, the button is really hard to activate.
100% agree on the point of the volume/expression pedal ;-)
Just got this for 107 bucks. A steal at that price.
I really wanted to hear with a 3rd party IR. I have a hd500x and was considering this as a back up unit and just an IR loader as the stock cabs on the pod suck.
get a vamp 2 pedal
Pretty interesting age of modeling we’re entering. I mean like the main battle we’re used to happened with high end rather pricey units in the past decade. I bet now’s the time it biases towards more affordable stuff. I’ve seen a vid on this unit’s direct competitor like yesterday (nux mg-300), and only by the first looks, I thought this would be a mere copy of that. Turned out to be it isn’t- metal casing, more connection options, different software. And they sound decent enough with options to load your trusty ir. Does this unit also work as an audio interface?
Totally. Yeah, you can connect it as an audio interface.
I bought one of these :) The ENGL Savage model is great, got to crank it in a practice room and I'm very impressed, the CaliDream was a nice wet clean sound to start with, and the DivBellLead a nice Gilmour approximation.
Have you tried connecting the pitch-shifting to the expression pedal? If so, does it work similarly to a Whammy pedal and does it sound good? Thanks!
@@TarenLeitzke I didn't have much luck getting it to work as you describe (full octave bend, like Morello), which was disappointing... but all other FX sound good to my ears, as do the amp sims.
Dan Ced Wat(cool username lol) hey Thanks for letting me know about the Dave G setting now I'm even more excited my Valeton is on the way !
I WANT TO SEE MORE ABOUT THE LOOP!
Thanks, this was really useful. Think it's a no brainer for me to get my hands on one for this price.
I was so disappointed when this came out and I already purchased the GE150. I'm very happy with my valeton coral amp mini pedal. cant wait till you compare it with nux mg300 and mooer ge150. really gives zoom boss line 6 and cheapo manufacturers in the low end multi effects market a run for their money
Yeah it's crazy how good it is for the money
please create a video on how to arrange in order the patches that you want.
Would love to see a comparison to the hotone ampero, I’m since the hotone is more than double the price it would be hard, but still interested!!
I'll def do that too!
@@TaylorDanley I am also interested in that comparison. On the Japanese website, using Google translate it seems to imply that this is the same modelling as the Ampero, just at a lower price point. Since you got such sick metal tones out of the Ampero, I decided to give this little guy a try, but I'm not supper impressed with the metal tones honestly. The amps all kind of sound the same to me? I'm not the best at dialing in tones, so it could just be me. Still happy with the unit, and clean tones are really nice!
Valeton is a subsidiary of Hotone, so they should be similar in sound.
How does it compares with Nux MG300? Which one has better amp simulation and overall better sound quality? Thanks
I haven't had the chance to check one out yet, but maybe we can make that happen!
Thanks this monday I will test that with headrush frfr ;) (sorry my english im spanish)
Funny. I just ordered mine earlier this morning. lol. the ability to use custom IR spurred my interest on this little box.
Very cool
It's a pretty cool little box. The built in IR's are surprisingly good, I've loaded a few custom IR's but still tend to use the built in ones.
hello taylor, you already heard about the launch of the valeton gp 200?, will you do a review? looks great, like pod go!
Seems to sound great !
Not bad for 150!
To switch on the fly from one preset (or patch) must they be in numerical order in the bank or can the pedal be programmed to switch between two presets of one's choosing?
My sons getting into playing. This seems better than a bunch of cheap pedals. Easier to use and play with.
just ordered two of these for one my buddies & myself ... hope i can get dime's tone out of it 👍
Hey there ! I just bought one and I wanted to use a midi footswitch so I can control most of the effects on it. Can I use the USB port on the pedal to connect the midi controller ??
Tone quality reminds me of the bias stuff. Not a bad little guy for 150 though, no doubt.
Would be interested to hear it in a mix vs the Axefx.
Definitely soon!
Awesome demo, taylor. \m/ I was thinking about getting this on the count that this can also be used on bass. other than that, the guitar models sounded pretty cool. and I've noticed that it also has the ehv model and the diezel herbert model on it. I was thinking about getting this or the mooer ge150(or ge200). especially since my brother and I are mooer fans. but I am curious about valeton products like this one.
Will you compare it to mooer ge150?
Yep, that video is on its way
It's perfect for my 4trings bass guitar
Dude this is awesome! How would I go about making a Rammstein - Sonne kind of tone? I'm super new to this, but just bought this Valeton for that purpose
vaelton gp 100 or zoom g1x4 which could i get ???
tell me fast gonna get one soon
What about making it hybrid by adding two overdrives
Where is whammy bar (mod) and tap signal?
Also have you seen the valeton coral preamp pedal? Try that as well if your interested.
I was wondering how many looping overdubs can I do with gp100?
Just throwing up a comment in case you or anyone else might know. i got this unit a couple of weeks ago and I'm having fun with it. I've been able to load a few custom IRs and am hoping to try more, but I get a lot of times when the software fails to load them, even when I'm able to use IRs from the same pack. I emailed their support (unfortunately they're closed for Lunar New Year, I believe) but curious if others have run across this and if there are just certain packs that work better (I've been using free stuff, hoping to buy ML Sound Lab stuff)
Cool video man
Thanks!
want a ge150 vs this one
Its coming!
Hello Taylor, I play in a single guitar band and the trail funcion is very importand for me on delays and reverb. Can you confirm that the trails work when changing patches even if you use diferent types of delays and reverbs?
Would be curious of yite thoughts of the headrush 112 frfr. With a few of these budget modelers. Pod hd pro (whatever one you have I forgot), moore preamps, valeton, nux, all the ones that are $300 or lower. Would be most curious if the headrush could be a nice temp cab or sub cab for a 2x12 or 4x12.
Mono recording of a stereo effects unit.
Hi everyone. Does the looper have UNDO / REDO option? Like most of the one button loopers when you press and hold the button it will undo the last recorded layer only.
Great review is it better than Nux 300?
does this have whammy and harmonizer?
has a menu for mic/amp/effect for vocal
thanks for the video! :) does the thing have any tangible latency? like if you would play through VST effects on a computer?
You mean if using as an audio interface? I'm not sure, I never use them that way...
can you use it with headphones only and no amp ?
@@SpayZGames yes you can it has a headphone jack
Does anyone know what’s better between this or the sonicake matribox?
Can I cover big concert with this processor
hi Taylor, would you still recommend this for an eternal beginner - a not quite there yet :) You did all the settings changes via a PC. It would be good to see if the box itself is easy to flip between sounds.
can i ask? does the parameter knob can be a master volume knob? Like if im switching preset can i adjust the output volume of the preset?
I'm looking for something cheap that I can travel with and jam with my friends in the States. Running this through an amp will stand up to a live jam in a smallish room?
Can the pitch-shifting on this pedal be connected to the expression pedal to make this function similarly to the DigiTech Whammy pedals? If so, how good does this sound? Thanks!
I just picked this up, and the whammy type function is very poor. The settings not the editing software doesn’t even make sense. Hope this helps
This looks like it will check all the boxes and at a good price point, but I don't think it sounds very good tbh.
I just bought it yesterday, I did read the manual book repeatedly but still don't know how to switch expression pedal to wah pedal. Please help me! 🙏 The manual said "To use expression pedal as a wah pedal, assign Range as control target" But I still don't get it :( please help!
step on the pedal a little more hard, takes me 3 day to realize it 😂
Dropbox link does not work anymore...
Hello sir, I am from India,can I compare with boss gt 100..I mean sound quality
I read on a site which says Valeton is owned by Hotone. How does it hold up compared to the Ampero?
🤔 good question. Only one way to find out... yes, that's a set up for a shootout video. 😂👌
Did you see if the cab block can be moved in front of the amp block or if the amp block can be bypassed with the cab block still active? Weird question I know, but I'm hoping this could also be used with an acoustic IR (loaded into the cab block) into an acoustic or clean amp model. With that I'd be able to use my Tele (with a piezo pickup under the saddle) with a preset for acoustic tones and a preset for electric for when I'm playing simple solo/duo gigs. All with one small setup.
I took back a few BOSS units in the last month as their distortion and overdrives were far too brtittle but this little thing is amazing!
Same. Don't know why but BOSS distortion doesn't appeal to me.
Taylor! Hopefully you can help me out here man. This question doesn't apply to this video but I'm going crazy NOT finding the answer.
So I want to get an HX Stomp for live use to replace my head. I'm planning to power the stomp thru a cab with a power amp pedal (Mooer baby bomb 30).
To connect to the power amp pedal, don't you use the FX send jack on the stomp? If so, does that mean you cannot use the FX loop on the Stomp for your pedalboard?
I hope this makes sense. But it's the one question that makes or breaks me buying one or not.
No, you just use the normal output. Just make sure to turn the cab emulation off.
@@TaylorDanley dude thanks so much. I really appreciate the response. The reason I asked that is from this video here. At 2:30 he shows his connections and the power amp cable comes from the Stomps FX Send 🤷♂️ I guess there's more than way to do it, thankfully.
czcams.com/video/jyShcHbg7kk/video.html
How did you activate the looper in the editor? I do not see where to select it
Those expression pedals are too small and stiff to use for anything other than a volume pedal especially if you have size 15 feet. I use the expression pedal on my Ampero as a volume pedal only and add a wah and drop tune pedal to the front of it.............
I know! I wish they'd cut costs be eliminating the pedal, adding another footswitch and an expression input if you want to use a full size one!
I recently got one and does it even have a turn on/off switch 😆?
Does anyone know if it can be connected from the outputs to a hi-fi amplifier like the Line 6 Amplifi TT?
How good is the pitch shifter? May be a deal breaker
No idea! I didn't get that deep yet lol
@@TaylorDanley That would be great to see that in a video!
is there a delay once switch in other effects? example clean then to distortion?
Cool chug
Do I need to have a computer for this to run? Can I use it without the computer?
You don’t need a computer to use it but computer makes it easier to use.
Have you try using it as an audio interface with multiple usb ports connected at the same, I'm having an issue doing that, for example if I use the valeton alone as an audio interface with my pc is working fine, but let's say I want to use a wirless mouse, once I put the mouse usb receiver, it keeps working because I can see the sound info on my daw, however the sound coming from my monitors dissapears, no audio is coming out at all, I already tried with 6 different computers and is doing the same thing, do you know ifvthat can me fixed?
Mate.. the Valeton software I installed to my laptop doesn't run. Many times I tried. What is the minimum requirements for PC to run the software?
🤷♂️ worked fine for me. No idea, maybe try their customer service?
Hey man, where does the "GP100 Editing App" come from? It's not in an app store or on their website.
🤔 good question. Pretty sure I got it from their site somewhere. A lot of the time you have to dig around for these things though
@@TaylorDanley I did end up finding it on their website in the end... interesting little contraption. Thanks!
You bet! 🙌
Hey man may i ask if this will work also to bass guitars. Pls reply thank u.
can we have separate output with disabled cabsim on this thing like mooer ge150? I didn't find the info in valeton gp100 manual
From the manual, it appears that the Cab sim is treated like any other effect, which can be turned on or off.
@@miker7640 I know, looking from the output, it has only one jack, so no separate cabsim defeat output IMO
@@spanneng - Sorry, I misunderstood your question. I think you're right. No separate cabsim defeat output.
Hmmm. Looks suspiciously similar to the ampero...the amps inside and everything...don’t wanna say they copied the Ampero but...yeah
👀👀👀
I think they are part of the same company.
@@chrisvuk3053 - They are.
Anyone tried Flamma FX100? can you make a review of it? Please
What about clean tone ?
I'm not the best guy for that..
Dude I've followed the same steps as you, to get that tune/sound, but mine still sounds wack af. Like there's too much bass or just sounds like muffled or something. I have a decent amp, a line 6 spider iv 30, and I've done what I could with the amo go get the sound somewhat clean like yours, still sounds bad. Am I missing something? Cuz I'm kind of regretting buying this thing already...
This is going direct into an interface. Are you running into the amps input?
@@TaylorDanley yeah I'm not using an interface, I'm still a bit of a newbie in this. Maybe the problem is there? My amp is also a bit old but still ok I guess, it's a line 6 spider iv 30.
Maybe I need to upgrade my gear 😅
The issue most likely is that you are running an amp sim into an amp. They're really meant to be ran into the fx return with the cab emulation off, or direct into something with flat response (PA, studio monitors, etc).
If you're going to use it with a small combo amp like that, turn the amp/cab off and just use the effects... or plug in headphones!
Is your guitar a jackson soloist slattxmg3-6?
For 150 bucks, it seems to respond pretty damn well compared to a real amp. Impressed!
Yeah, I was surprised!
Now please try my unit, and even cheaper.. BOSS GT 100 I know its old, but it rawks if you know how to use it.
Very useful when performing on stage
Is it better on mooer ge150? Or the otherway around?
🤔 funny you mention it... I have a shootout coming soon!
@@TaylorDanley - Not so patiently waiting. 😁
sounds better than nux except nux had a better drummachine.
Looks exactly like a GE150
Except completely metal and 4x the weight 👀 but yeah, that's its main competitor
Valeton and Hotone's Patch editor have similarities and even the device itself have similarities, look at the knobs. One of them could be the original manufacturer or they have the same one.
Mines burned out. Just now.
Can you use this as a recording interface? I will have to say it is better than my Zoom G1xon from 2016.
Does it have any bass amps in it
It does yeah! Has some really nice SVT sims in it, Jonny Dibble has some videos where he shows off the bass sounds!
Hi, great video bro. Can you connect it to a mixer?
It doesn’t have a DI but you could use an 1/4 male to XLR female adapter in one of the sends to a board 👍
@@MegaDoug thanks bro
No dude. Keep the pedal.
the video is good quality
the music metal trash is a very awful selection
