  • I bought one of these and it is a brilliant all rounder. Very customisable with plugins etc. One thing I cannot find an answer to……it doesn't appear through Reaper DAW as an interface. I've tried everything I can think of, drivers, many different cables etc even contacted Mooer directly but no response from them at all. If anyone could offer any guidance I'd be eternally grateful ????

  • I connected the OTG to the laptop for a stereo mix recording. I love it. Custom IRs can be imported but sometimes I just browse the in built cabs and fine tune it and it works fine. For some gigs, I use one output to an amp's return and the other to a mixer. For fun when I want to use the front of an amp, I just use the inbuilt gain pedals alone. Eq is fully customizable. How hard you have to press the exp pedal to trigger the wah is also customizable. Cons is that you can't rearrange the pedal order. (mod to dist etc.,) Exp pedal can customize the min/max value of volume but not for effect parameters like mix or delay time. I think that's where the GE200 comes in. But I'm fine with what I have now for what I need.

  • I've owned and tested, in multiple live situations, all of the different versions of this firmware build (for example, the Mooer GE150 is an exact clone, but with a plastic housing). They all would be outstanding units, were it not for a couple of fatal, deal-breaking flaws that I've had the displeasure of experiencing while in live use. So, yeah…NOT good. The first problem I encountered was that, randomly, on some but not all banks where you build your own preset, the modulation effect will reset itself to maximum level, no matter where you set it when you built the preset. Yeah,I know. Weird! And their support team didn't know how to fix it. Again (let's see if I can explain this better): if you set up a preset with a modulation effect (flanger, let's say), and you set the level to "5", and saved it, here's what might happen on some (butagain, not all) banks — you'll turn off the unit, and then, when you turn it back on, the level on the flanger for that preset will reset itself to a level of "10". Have you ever hit a pedal in a live performance and had one of the values you thought you set to your preference be COMPLETELY out of whack? Yeah, it sucks.
    The second problem I've found is that the expression pedal can NOT be reliably set to any other values than the default of: Min=0%, Max=100%. This sucks because I, personally, lie to set my volume pedals to Min=50%, Max=100%, so that I have a set rhythm volume (Min) and a set lead volume (Max). Easy, right? Well, these pedals don't seem to be able to do that. No matter how I've tried (and again, only on certain banks), it just goes backto factory default.
    So anyway, these are things you'll never hear from any of these gear review channels, because odds are, they don't actually use the gear they review enough to find all the practical flaws. What really irked me, though, is that the company's own support team was utterly clueless.

  • I wonder about Mooer GE 150 and Harley Benton DNA fx .. difference? probably no .. just a look .. QUESTION – is it possible to save your Preset (User) settings on any of them?

  • The GE 150 is worth its time and size. Have one and it is sturdy for my use. I've used stomp boxes for years and this accepts those stomps but have really relied on Mooer's noise suppressor and verb plus the distortion banks. In due time, will connect the digital connections of the computer and phone outlets to experiment. So far this unit is very flexible. Sometimes it's is better to adapt than just buy and throw away before giving opportunity to work with. This tool as said is for practicing but I believe is flexible to be used live if your not toasted and desire simplicity. Then get a different brand. Why do people waste money by not trying and having a more opened mind to change. Change is inevitably and change in some cases is good. Change the internal settings to suit your taste. Simple.

  • There are some serious issues with this gear. First – the latency. I could not sync well with the drums after playing without it. There's this strange feeling the sound is just to late – it's very noticeable and annoying. Second thing – it's very noisy, it has some strange overdrive-like artifacts on some clean (no overdrive) effects – short cracks. Mooer issued a patch to their software to fix that but it improved a little – not much. Another thing – the quality of DA/AD processing. It just sounds like very very cheap electronic effects with strange digital artifacts, like a poor quality MP3 file. On 'clean guitar' settings it made my tube amp sound like a cheap behringer combo with a very poor digital reverb on. I've returned it – I wanted a 'not the best but decent' but I could not stand the latency and the 'digital noise''.
