So there are 40 factory patches and 40 user patches. So you can create your own patches with the effects available.
The effects are divided by family unit, each containing a number of in effect. It has a compressor module / fx, drive, EQ, modualtion, delay, reverb ... Each containing different types of effects (wah, acoustic simulation, flanger, chorus, ...) You can earn 8 modules. The effects are adjustable to the expression pedal, assignable at will a different module.

The G1X also has a drum of 40 patterns, with different measurement formats (4 / 4, 3 / 4) in different styles (rock, metal, blues, jazz ...) Practice for the study.

There is also a tuner function (not a substitute for a good tuner, but can help. I find it a bit vague)

UTILIZATION

The grip is not easy at first. It is a bit lost with this crowd of functions and settings, for only a few control buttons (I'm pretty adept "function, a button", but in this case ca would look like a cockpit of airbus ...)
Fortunately the manual is super light, very well done, very visual, very didactic. It was necessary here. Ultimately, if we take the time to look at the toy an hour or two, it begins to take over. After one week of use, I perfectly in hand, and I will rule quickly. In planning its own patches that freelance philosophy of the machine.

SOUND QUALITY

The effects suit me very well. Sounds like a little air, and I found what I needed. It is not always better, but ... The sound quality is good. The sound is clean. Me, it suits me. Notice to metalheads, you will find all you need Satus, fat, aggressive, warm, a bit of everything.
The device is versatile, however, since it allows to play any style. Just one thing, the simulation does not replace sound still not a scratch noise ...
There's also way to make things fun with sounds in combination, by fiddling ...

I use a Yamaha Pacifica G1X and a Peavey Bandit 112 amp. (It's been a good trio of material not too expensive, good quality and very versatile!)

OVERALL OPINION

I then used a little over a week.

Most:
-The expression pedal
-The addition of cascading effects
-Sound quality
-The overall robustness (plastic housing, but very solid, not "knock" sound commands)
-The great versatility
-Price

the -:
Tuner-not terrible
-The grip a bit tedious
-Instructions of the LCD not very clear

This is the first multi purpose I buy. I had a Vox amp with integrated multi-effects, good quality, but not as comprehensive.

Value for money very good. Bought € 71 with the AC adapter at Thomann. This is not to advertise, but it's that I found the cheapest. Everywhere else, it cost € 10 more without the charger (sold separately for € 9-12). It makes the difference ...

I am very happy, if I buy a do it again. And then zoom is a good brand.
I was a little hesitant, did not find any opinion on the net, the product is new. But there are no surprises.
