It is a bit of an understatement to say that we’ve come a long way in music creation. The evolution of genres is not only a cultural phenomenon, but is in equal parts due to the advent of technology. Sampling propelled the music industry to new heights as an aftershock of inventions like the radio (to hear new beats), digital soundboards (to recreate or add said beats), and now multi-effects processor, to imitate and remix into new beats altogether.
Concurrently, creating new music became easier as well. As professional level technology became increasingly more accessible to musicians everywhere, demand for breaking barriers grew. The more people saw what they could do, the more they wanted to do more.
And why not? Why should you limit yourself? Art knows no boundaries and the same goes for music composition. Producing music has never been more exciting.
With that exciting thought, let Photo Savings introduce you to the new ZOOM G6 Multi-Effects Processor. With 30 years of pro audio engineering under their belt, ZOOM launches their new guitar processor that is as easy to use as it can get.
Get Handy
Perhaps the most innovative, but simple technological feature that we often overlook and take for granted is the touchscreen. No nimble fingers needed here because the G6 comes with a 4.3 inch, color touchscreen with which you can drag, drop, and swipe to create sounds. The system is powered through application and is user-friendly.
Where to Start?
Let’s say you don’t have an originally engineered patch at the moment, what do you do? Luckily, the G6 comes preloaded with 100 presets for you to build with for all of your songs. It has a capacity to manage 240 patches in total! That’s a whole artist’s discography. The patch features allows you to mess around with up to nine different effects for your patches.
What’s so Cool?
Including 70 preloaded and recorded Impulse Responses, the G6 is packed full of the best and new amps in music history. Whether you choose to use these or add your own, there is room for up to 100 amps on the device.
The Limit Does Not Exist
Perhaps the best thing about the G6 is its portability. With a lightweight and durable design, it can fit in your guitar bag or backpack to take with you wherever. Insert a SD card to save all your productions and go wherever you want. Now the whole world is your studio!
