Excelent job on all your videos! And you read and respons all coments, thats talk about are you a good person. Sorry for my bad english.
Hi Dario, thank you so much, I'm really happy that you like the videos and your English is not bad at all! Well, I try to answer to all your message...your feedback, comments and opinions mean a lot to me!!!
Fantastic playing. Keep up the good work!
Thank you Matt, really appreciated!
Leo thanks for the review!! Great way to see the differences!
I would prefer the Ampero because it sounded significantly more real to me. Although the tone capture feature is nice in the GE200 at the end I haven't heard it to be that real so overall even though I'd be more limited in the Ampero there are a ton of good sounding amps and effects.
HI Mauricio, thank you for sharing your opinion with us!
AWESOME review dear Leo!!! Great work with this demo. I like the Ampero, but... G200 with IR s is beautiful!
Thank you Leo, I'm really happy that you enjoyed the content!!!
Thank you very much for detailed review.
You are welcome and I'm happy that yuu appreciate the video!!!
Great rundown and comparison. Can you share your finding for their non-amp modeling tones? Can't seem to find any around that specifically test and compare the effects/modulation/drum machine sound. Quick listen of the two sound clips, the Hotone has the lowest noise floor, and more 'organic' tone than the Moore. Can you share your finding?
Hi Leo! Many thanks for this informative video! Awesome stuff right there!

Gran bella recensione! one question, in a live context, which one would you use in terms of ease of use? I've read in another comment you suggested the GE250 for the extra switch, and it's understandable, but which one do you think would fare better on stage between these two?
Grazie Max! Well, I don't see any particular reason to choose one over the other for live use. If you are fine with 3 foot-switches and one exp pedal, I think that you can choose either of the two.
Thank you for your message!
Great Leo, I'm sure you will be an amazing professional in the music sector, think on it 😉😉
😊
I think he already is...
Hi Leo.. thanks for the state of the art comparison.. its really² the best comparison video on the whole youtube! 👏👏👏.. Just wanna ask though, if the Mooer GE200 can be connected to external pedal since i really love my existing distortion & booster pedals.. thanks for the explaination..
Thank you so much, I'm really happy that you like the video!
Yes, I think you can put the distortion pedal in from of the Mooer GE 200, which does not have a loop. Therefore you can not then control it inside the signal chain of the pedalboard.
Thx Leo. After this video I choose Hotone. He is way closer to real deal.
Ok, thank you for sharing your opinion and your final decision!
You are a fantastic player, melodic and technical
Hi Gustavo, this is a great compliment, that makes me really happy! Thank you so much!
Ciao Leo, un altro video eccellente, allora, mi piace di più il suono di Mooer, la qualità del suono è veramente molto buona.
Grazie!!!
Thank you!
Thanks Leo for this review, I was close to GE200 and I got it clear. For a home guitar player I think GE200 it´s a good choice for the price/sound and the plus it can be used as USB interface. Could be nice if you upload some of your preset. Great playing Leo!!
Hi Francisco, ok, I'm currently working about some new videos and I have step up some gear for recording guitar cabinet...so I will try to make some more profiles and patches to share1 Thank you for your message!
Couldn't Hotone Ampero be used as an USB interface too?
Awesome!
Thank you Isaque, really appreciated!!
Gentilissimo Leo, scusa la mia ignoranza.. e se non mi rispondi, lo potrò anche capire... :) ma, dimmi se sbaglio, quando tu intendi , per le pedaliere, Jensen + shure, questi ultimi due, sono sempre virtuali , corretto? la IR invece tiene conto dell'accoppiata cab+ mic? e quelle custom hanno comunque dei riferimenti , cioè da quale accoppiata è stat creata (la IR)? Non ho capito come fai ad utilizzare la IR sull'ampli "vero".... ultima cosa, hai mai provato, specie per i suoni puliti, queste pedaliere con la headrusch 108? buona giornata
Ciao Luigi, NON sono assolutamente domande "da ignorante"...anzi, scusami se non sono stato chiaro nel video. Provo a chiarire: quando parlo delle pedaliere con Jensen + Shure, mi riferisco alle loro riproduzioni virtuali disponibili nella pedaliera stessa. Ma poichè ogni pedaliera ha la sua "versione" di tale speacker e microfono, credo sia utile anche testare le pedaliere con un IR (Impulse Response) uguale per entrambe, per valutare solo la qualità del suono del modello di amplificatore. Tale IR è comunque l'insieme di speaker e microfono (sempre Jensen + SM 57). Per usare l'IR con l'ampli vero, registro solo il segnare dell'ampli con il Suhr reactive load e poi carico nel computer l'IR (uso torpedo wall of sound) e tale IR è lo stesso delle pedaliere. Non ho mai provato la 108...forse in futuro. Grazie per domanda e spero di aver chiarito. Un caro saluto.
Hi Luigi, they are absolutely NOT "ignorant" questions ... and sorry if I haven't been clear in the video. I try to clarify: when I speak of the pedalboards with Jensen + Shure, I refer to their virtual reproductions available in the pedalboard itself. But since each pedalboard has its own "version" of this speacker and microphone, I think it is also useful to test the pedalboards with an IR (Impulse Response) equal for both, to evaluate only the sound quality of the amplifier model. This IR is still speaker + microphone (always Jensen + SM 57). To use the IR with the true amp, I record only the amp with the Suhr reactive load and then I load the IR with the torpedo wall of sound in the computer (this IR is the same used in the pedalboards). I have never tried the 108 ... maybe in the future. Thanks for question and I hope I have clarified. See you!.
Hey Leo, Thanks for the review. I wanted to ask if you could upload the sampled IRs you made of the clean amps for the Mooer units and maybe some cabs? Right now I only see Leo Plexi uploaded in the Mooer studio. I would really appreciate some of your awesome cleans.
Quality content as usual!
Thank you! I've not yet profiled clean tones....I have to do it...you are right...thank you for your message and your interest in my channel!!!
Hi Leo! How would you compare the two in terms of effects quality? Thanks!
Hi Gaetano, the comparison with effects is more difficult than comparing amps, as you don't have a reference. I mean for the amps, you have the real amp, but for the effects it is harder to find out what is the real deal. I will think about this, thank you for your suggestion!
7/4 time signature in the first song, nice... my most favorite steve vai song is 'die to live' 7/4 time sig too.. nice playing from you as always
Thank you, really appreciated...your message makes me happy!!!
Leo, what do you consider better TODAY for Guitar as an overall Amp/Effx processor? these Fractal Fractal FX8 or even the The Fractal Audio Axe FX Standard ....or the HX Stomp or Ampero or any of these units around $600?
Hi, this is an hard question, as it depends on your specific needs. I'm actually enjoyining a lot the Fractal FM3 (that is over 600...). In the 600 price range there is the Mooer GE 300 lite: for me the profiling feature is a pretty killer feature, and if I needed it, I can add an expression pedal. But my/our needs changes time after time...
Thank you for your question!
@@LeoGibsonGtr yes the FM3 is great but way more expensive than $600 so I was wonderring if an old Fractal still better and superior sonically than newer products that today are $600 (way less that was their original price)... as technology evolves...I thinl that is a good question...
Yes, I do agree, it's a good question! Unfortunatelly I don't have FX8, but I have the Axe FX II...I also wanted to check out the differences in sound...I need to find the time...
@@LeoGibsonGtr that would be an interesting video
Wow.. Nyc video
Thank you, really appreciated!!
Hi Leo. Could Hotone Ampero be used as an USB interface too?
The Ampero can be used for the bass guitar?
Grazie
Hi, yes it can.
Thank you!
Hi Leo, i'm stuck in decision, in your personal opinion in a jazz/fusion/pop contest for recording at home and in a live situation what of this unit gives you the best sound and feel in your hand? Thank you so much. Great work as always!
Hi Matteo, if you have the extra money I would go with the GE 250, expecially for live situation I think that both the etra footswitches and the XLR connectivity is better. As regards the GE 200 or the Ampero One, I would go with the GE 200. For me the possibility to make your own profile with the GE Labs app or to download profiles from the Mooer Studio web site is really a selling point. Thank you for your question and your interest in my channel!
@@LeoGibsonGtr As your preference go to the GE200 for the GE Labs and the profile download, i suppose that in term of quality of the amp simulation they are the same, is this correct? Thanks for your answer Leo! Great channel and musitian
Thank you Matteo. I didn't compare all the amps, but for me there is not such a big difference between the two units and it is really a matter a personal preference. On the other hand the possibility to profile my amps and load them in the GE 200 is really a selling point.
I don't know if anyone else has mentioned it already but at least on the Ampero One you can not only connect an expression pedal to the "Exp 2" connector, but a foot switch to get two more foot switches (a total of five). If that can't be done on the GE200 (it didn't look like that when I browsed through the manual quickly) the Ampero One might have the edge in a live situation.
Ampero has this fs-1 "momentary" pedal available, but I'm not really sure it's compatible with the MP-80 unit. If it was, then it would make my choice clear.
@@eirinn The FS-1 and the MP-80 are indeed compatible with each other. You can read more about in which way the FS4 and FS5 can be set up in the user manual on page 16.
hotoneaudio.oss-cn-shenzhen.aliyuncs.com/prod/support/MP-80(Ampero%20One)_Online%C2%A0Manual_EN_Firmware%20V1.1_200813.1597911000316.pdf
So if you have no need for a second expression pedal you can have two more foot switches with the FS-1 instead.
Ampero on another level.
Hi, thank you for sharing your opinion!
What do you think about the comparison of the operability of the loopers and the drum machines of both pedalboards? I am a beginner and I am looking for a quality drum machine to practice with. Good video!
Good question 🤔
Hi Leo. Thank you so much for this great video! It is very informative and your music is just awesome! Now, I have a question. How does the Mooer Ge200 currently compare to the Headrush Gigboard soundwise? I'm currently stuck with a difficult decision and can only get one of these 2 since other options are currently not available in my country (not even the Ge250). Is the Gigboard astronomically better? Or is the Mooer Ge200, with the latest firmware and new features like the MNRS stuff, comparable if not better? I would really appreciate a reply from you. Again, great video!! Thank you so much!!
Thank you Christian, really appreciated!!! I would not say that the HR is much better thank the GE 200. For sure it has more options and the touch screen is really amazing! On the other hand the possibility to load profiles offered by the GE 200 is a killer feature. If the price difference between the two is important, I would go with the cheaper one.
I hope this help.
Thank you once more!
@@LeoGibsonGtr Thank you so much!!
You are welcome!!!
Hi ! Would you say that the Ampero (one or normal) sounds better/more realistic than the Nux MG300 ?
Hi, they both are good sounding units...I've not done a direct comparison yet, so I can't tell which one sound more realistic...this is a good suggestion for a future video! Thank you!
@@LeoGibsonGtr I 'll hope you'll make it soon so I could order my next set up !!! ;)
@@mrzapapate3083 só pra Registro, eu tenho uma mg300 ela soa bem, mas uma ampero ONE e muito melhor que ela, tanto que pretendo comprar uma ampero.
Which one is better in emulating Fender amps?
Hi, so far I've done a video comparing the GE250 vs HX STOMP vs GIGBOARD vs IRIDIUM vs a Fender Deluxe Reverb: czcams.com/video/0QD9D1aZvxk/video.html
I would like to do other videos about clean sounds in the future...I need time...thank you for your patience and for your message!!!
Ciao,ma anche con ľampero hotone si puó entrare diretti nel mixer senza ampli?
Ciao Paolo, si, per altro la versione "normale" ha anche le uscite bilanciate XLR.
Grazie per la domanda
@@LeoGibsonGtr perfetto,grazie a te
Im currently finding it hard to choose between mooer ge200/250 and hotone ampero/one.
Is it really that big of a deal to have balanced outputs for live playing? I do like the idea of the smaller units.
Mostly play through live amp that gets mic'd but occasionally a sound guy insists for a direct line. Can't he just use a DI box and be okay?
Hi, if you find a good tone that you like with your amp modeling pedalboard, in my opinion is better not to mic, as you are gonna have a consistent sound in every gig, without relying on how good your cab is gonna be mic. The XLR out allows for longer cables without noise, while if you use unbalanced cables, and you run long cables, you are gonna have less quality.
Thank you for your message!
@@LeoGibsonGtr thank you! Love your channel! Peace and love
Thank you, really appreciated!!!
Anyone plug a synth on the ampero One ???
Are they made by the same company?
Hi Edward, I don't think so. if someone has better info than me, please drop us a message
Thank you for your message!
Hi Leo, Where are you from?
Hi Leandeo, I've promised that I will reveal my nationality as soon as I will get 10k...if ever....😊
I'm so sorry, he's from Barcelona
Sorry but what do you think of the GE150.
Hi, it's a good unit for the price. In my channel there is a demo review here: czcams.com/video/7lvmdWm0dro/video.html
Thank you!
@@LeoGibsonGtr Great will look it up thanks.
So far with every thing I have seen is the Ampero IRs suck, but the modelling seems superior to the Mooer and much closer to the real amps, you just need quality custom IRs and you are good to go.
Hi, thank you for sharing your opinion!
Dear Leo, i like the way you play the guitar, but in don't agree with your comparative, sorry...
At first, the Ampero one costs 280 Euros in europe, and the GE 200 costs 255 euros (so, 25 euros more than the Mooer).
There are a lot more cabs in the One (34) and more amps (9 ) than in the Mooer, even if there are no empty slots in the One: so it's not fair to put a red mark on this line.
Same thing for the looper: 50 seconds or 52 seconds is almost the same value and doesn't justify that you put a red mark on the One.
And, at last, i got both the GE 200 and the Hotone Ampero (the One has the same sounds), and i can assure you that the high gain amp sounds of the Ampero are really the best of both!
So, i think that, except the price and the impossibility for the ampero One to load profile capture, for me the best sound machine is the Ampero's.
Hi Philippe, thank you for sharing your opinion. Let me just integrate you comment saying that the prices I mentioned in the video are the ones at the time when the video was done (beginning of may) and that they may change (nevertheless, there are still many shops where the Ampero one price is >300€). As regards the amps and cabs, well, I still think that the green thumb is more appropriate for the Mooer, as the possibility to load profiles in the empty slot is a killer feature, that allows us to expand the tonal possibilities of the Mooer by ourself and actually you can download 10 amp profiles from the MooerStudio cloud very easily, exceeding the number of amps that the Ampero has. With the Ampero your are stacked with internal amps, and only firmware upgrade could bring new amps. As regards looper time, well here I can be more flexible, but for sure I'm gonna be then receiving messages complaining that the looper time of the Mooer is longer :). As regards High Gain I for sure respect your opinion: my only suggestion is to check out also High Gain amp profiles from Mooer Studio cloud, where maybe there could be sounds that you like.
Thank you once more for you message and for sharing your valuable opinion with us: I think that these conversations are very helpful for other guitarsits in order to find the best solutions according to their needs!
Ampero molto più realistico secondo me, finisce che me lo prendo.
