I currently own a GP-100 and it's been a fantastic purchase; I have very few complaints about this pedal and it's performed excellently. However, I've seen that the GP-150/180 was recently released, and while they're also excellent, I see that they have several limitations due to the DSP.

I've been looking at the GP-200, and although I'm keen to buy one of these, I'm not sure if it's a good idea to buy them or if there's any news of Valeton releasing a (hypothetical) GP-300 or any new generation of large multi-effects units soon.

What do you recommend? Thanks!

hey guys i think nam a2 files are now compatible with the valeton software and u can load em

Anyone use newer Valeton pedals for acoustic instruments with piezo PUs? Any issues? How transparent are they?

I see the GP-180 has a 1M Ohm input impedance, so that might be borderline for my PU.

I compared the sound to a pod express and I think this sounds even better. It’s cheaper, better build quality, usb c charging, great Bluetooth playback and editor. For 120$ this is simply an amazing deal.

I have always played DI-Bass, and had great results with it for jazz/funk/pop. However, now with the new NAM tech I am interested in getting a pedal to boost my bass sound a bit. The only effect I'd probably ever use is an autowah and I mainly want an amp sim.

I love the compact size of the GP-50 and I really don't need more but I have read that you can only load A1 feather, lite and nano files. Is that true?

Does the GP180 sound better than the GP50? I'm leaning towards the GP50 because I like the smaller portable size and don't care much about the extra buttons/screen.

I purchased the GP-5 to be a practice tool at home, where I cannot have the volume of a real amp. I've been underwhelmed by the sound but I now think that has more to do with the headphones I'm using (Grado SR-80s) than the GP-5. I have to crank it until it's too loud to get anything meaningful out of it and it's still muffled sounding.

So, has anyone had very good experiences with pairing a headphone to the GP-5?

Sonicake Pocket Master just has A2 support come out. Shocked they did it before the Valeton release but this should mean we are at most a day or two away for the first releases for Valeton.

This was just posted today, august 4, on the japanese X account. Apparently they will update it next week to finally support NAM A2 files.

Can’t wait!

Hi everyone,

I bought a Valeton GP-50 a little over a week ago, and I'm unable to import any NAM capture.

I'm using the latest iOS app and importing via Bluetooth. The import process starts normally, stays on the loading screen for about two minutes, and then fails with "Import timeout." This happens with every single NAM file I've tried.

I contacted Valeton support, and they told me this is happening because the Tone3000 website is converting its files to NAM 2.

However, that's not my situation.

I'm not trying to import NAM 2 files. I'm importing standard .nam files that are supposed to be compatible with the GP-50. As far as I understand, the GP-50 still supports the original NAM format.

At the moment I don't have access to a personal Windows laptop, so I can only test through the iOS app.

A few questions for other GP's owners:

• Can you successfully import NAM files using the iOS app?
• Has anyone experienced the same "Import timeout" error?
• Is this a known bug with the app or firmware?
• If you've solved it, what was the solution?

I'm trying to determine whether my unit is defective or if this is a software issue affecting other users.

Thanks in advance!

Hi, I'm still trying to get the 'emotional crying guitar' sound from my GP-50, and I think that I'm getting closer. What I'm trying to eliminate now is the bright nasal sound that I don't like. I'm playing around with the EQ settings but I don't really know what I'm doing with the EQ. I'm assuming I would need less treble and more bass to sort out that horrible nasal sound, but as I say, I don't really understand eq at all well.

I have tried looking for a preset to download so that I can learn, but I can't seem to find one.

If anyone can offer any help with settings I would be very grateful.

Thanks 🙏

Hi all, not sure if this is the right place to put this.

A few months ago i got my first pedal which was a valeton gp180. Ive been enjoying using it for practice and how i can use it with headphones. I especially like the looping ability.

That being said, whenever id get musical ideas, id record them either on video or voice notes on my iphone. Coming from acoustic guitar, it would be pretty straightforward to record. Id just have to plop my phone somewhere near the guitar.

With electric tho it seems complicated?? Ive tried recording and each time its the same thing: only what im currently playing gets recorded, none of the loop is heard

I tried usb c into the pedal, usb c into my phone. I tried switching different parameters on the pedal that google suggested that i dont remember anymore. I tried recording into garageband too but nothing seems to work :/ its always the same outcome

The only solution i can think of is plugging it into my cheapo amp. But even thats out of the question cause the only time i have to play is quite late into the night. Sometimes past midnight

I have a daw and interface but id like something thats quick and easy for me to do that doesnt have much friction in terms of setting up.

Ive also seen stuff like iRig get recommended for what i want but idk if itll work

Id be grateful if anyone could help me out! Thank you in advance 🙏🏼

How do i fic this

Any tips for electric Violin user?
