@bunchacrapbunchashit How's the low end? Does it thump with palm mutes or does it sound like a dying giraffe? I heard the speaker is like 6 inches, therefore I'm not expecting huge low end.
GREAT!....this has gotta be one of the best Roland MicroCube presentations EVER!.. he gets to his point and simply does it!..
I just ordered this uke from Amazon.com a few minutes ago, and am looking forward to having some fun with it. And, yes, I'm less than an amateur, but so what!.. the point here is that this Microcube is rather inexpensive, but the unit is RICH!...
not sure if my one is faulty but if you set it to classic stack, put gain at 2 o clock, then it cuts out when you play low notes on the neck pickup at any considerable volume.
@mightyburee that would depend on how good your headphones are. if you have dollar store headphones, or apple headphones that came with your iPod, it will majorly suck, however, if you have decent headphones (i have roughly $100 klipsch earbuds) it will sound pretty good.
I have a mutli effects pedal that has all the effects from the Micro Cube and the Cube 15XL, so not considering effects what are the differences between the Micro Cube and the Cube 15XL?
@LoonyLooners Does the EQ matter? Yes and no. If you only focus on the EQ in your pedal than you can pretty much leave the EQ on the amp on 5 and forget about them. But if you want to experiment with the tone you can fool around with both EQs and see what you get.
@LoonyLooners I use a 65 watt marshall for most things I do but it weighs 45 pounds, so I need a practice amp I can carry anywhere. I've decided on the microcube cuz I really don't need anything bigger. But I admit, if I had no amp and needed to pick one, I'll take the 15XL, It has a bigger sound and you can get a lot more out of it, the microcube is only a 2watt amp with a 5 inch speaker compared to the 15watt 8 inches on the 15XL. On tone they are very similar, the microcube is sweeter though.
@Mrocznakupa Ah, ok! I would never buy one because they do not have humbucker pickups. I do not think they're so ugly, but I prefere Bc rich style too.
He has it mic-ed up, if no-one noticed....therefore, the mic goes to another amped source, so not the true sound of this amp and this review should be ignored.
Excuse me - I can see a micro - bit no amp. But anyway: at least every video is recorded with any micro (expect silent movies) an will be played out on any pc-speakers. So you will never hear any "true" sounds in a youtube-video. It's just to have an impressum.
@dbddhkp02 yeah that is true now I think about it, just I am suspicious of any mic, as it will likely improve the sound rather than degrade it. What i mean is, that mic could be going to an external source that can be highly tweakable, masking/improving the sound massively...however, I've now heard this amp in reality...and I can't believe how good it sounds for it's size...absolutely great! I am thinking of getting the XL20 model.
ok thought ide update.. i bought a used cube in like new condition for 50 bucks. they retail for 125 at guitar center... im taking this thing camping.. I love the effects. what more could someone want in an amp this tiny.. it is loud as hell for its size. ide say it weighs 3 and a half pounds its very light. the metal distortion is really crunchy. i thought i might have to get a pedal but its taken care of..runs on 6 double A's or outlet.. ive read it lasts over 10 hours. on AA's doubt it
@partyongarth420 I had a set of AA's in there for a good 12 hours of play. Mind you, I didn't have it cranked, but I was surprised that it powered for so long. Nice little amp.
re: microcube-yes-in this price range- you cant really go wrong-it sounds a lot louder than 2 watts the construction of it gives it a lot of push its more effective than the rest of the cube range-re;the looper is a good little device -a very creative tool-i would start out on the MC clean settings to take the measure of the looper, get ya head around the character and tone, however slight, then change your amp settings to accomadate,loads of great sounds, for not to much outlay
if your on a budget buy one,,,i did for £60 when they first came out,,,,i have amps costing £3000,,,,,i still use this to practice and use on recordings,,,,i make my living out of playing guitar,,,this was the best £60 i ever spent......a cube and an sm57,,and you'll be amazed,,,,,dont let anyone tell ya different,,,your ears are always the best judge......
@ikingofmen Hi- is this a good one to buy for when you want to use it with Boss loop pedal, voices overlaying? Is it right its 2 Watt? Any advice welcome, thank you!
My acoustic sound hisses so that I never use it. Otherwise the amp is a great practice amp. I like the Classic Stack (Marshall) model and JC-clean with chorus. They are the best models.
I would recommend this amp for your first guitar amp.
I'm gonna buy a new amp next week and I really don't know what to. I am using the Digitech RP255 unit and my guitar - an Ibanez RG321MH. I wanna get a new amp for college where I will get into a serious band. Currently I own the Fender G-DEC Junior which is only 15 W. I was told to get a solidstate with a good clean, as I dont need effects on it.What whould I get ? Around 30-50 W and 200-300$ ? I've set my eyes on the Kustom HV30 and Kustom Quad65DFX.Or maybe a Hartke GT60c? I need for metal.
Once you get down to around 5 Watts of power, the prices of the amps start to raise ... which is a bit annoying as these items are basically very cheap electronic devices with the output power of a radio.
The frame of the VOX DA5, for instance is made of the most cheapest "particle board" wood (don't try to sit on top of it, or you'll wind up with the amp's electronics inside your a**).
sounds like the only people that hate this amp are br00tal metal kids who think that this tiny little thing will give them the professional million watt cabinet + pedal board sound of their favorite breakdowncore group. people, this is just a little practice amp and it looks and sounds pretty sweet
@populvuh02 Well, the "br00tal" kids aren't metal. They are posers. Metal isn't that bullshit excuse for music. The other thing though, is that this little thing is pretty legit.
@Porkkana89 which one do you recommend? I need combo amp because I want to buy electric and to have amp for acoustic guitar too...something for 150-170 euros...
@burntvirtue To be honest, it's not that bad. You can still get much bigger and better combos with slightly higher price. Surprisingly, Micro Cube's clean channels suck but the metal channels are pretty awesome.
hey guys i need a new practicing amp in my bedroom and i was thinking about gettting a microcube or a line 6 spider....which do you think i should get
Don't buy this amp! I have it since yesterday. He is good for clean sounds, but for Metal or something else its bullshit, sounds awful! The 2 W aren't enough!!
@AILY200807 lol thnks for the warning. I thought that too. but it's good for Alternative Rock and other that uses effects. I'm trying to find a good amp but damn, it's more harder than i thought xD
Thank you for showing ALL of the possible sounds you can get out of this amplifier instead of just playing stupid heavy metal patterns at a high speed with a heavily distorted sound. Very interesting.
i love this amp, ive had it for about 5 years, and the only bad part is that the handle just snapped on one side...easy fix, but i LOVE Roland products, and this is a great little amp
I actually own one of these, anybody who wants to get one I'm going to tell you now that it's worth every nickle of it. It's gone across the country with me twice and countless times to my local park to play. you can't kill the damned thing either! just keep fresh batteries in it and it you won't be dissapointed.
@Soturibardi I am late on this comment, I bought a guitar and that amplifier just a few weeks ago, first it was great, now I hate it, as I, a metal fan, I don't have the epic distortion I need.
the workers at Guitar Center told me that their BOSS pedal section is used by this Roland Micro Cube. I know Roland and BOSS are the same company, but do their BOSS pedals have better tone on Roland Amps than Fender Amps like the Hot Rod Deluxe?
@riptide415 I have one but I have to say that even with my Boss ME-50 distortion it sounds a lot fizzy because the speaker it's too small, though if you connect it to the PC with a Cab Simulator you can get a pretty cool sound with the right settings...
this is a very very very good amp-combo for practicing and training. You can easily play Jimmy Page, Jimi Hendrix or Metallica styles just by switching buttons.
@simulator94 sorry to sound stupid, but does the stompbox connect to the input of the amp where you would normally plug in the guitar or is it a different place? thanks:)
@ChristyOB3 uhm, yes? :D seems like you've never used a distortion pedal before :D if you want to use one with this amp here, you have a wider choice of models, that you can crank up with a distortion pedal ;)
can i use a multi effects pedal with this amp? since the amp is always in either one of its COSM amp models, will the pedal effects override the amp effects???
Oh my god, as I listen to this, I just want to smash and burn my guitar, break my amplifier, rob a house just to get enough money to buy gear like this !
@MetalNewcomers most small amps wont give u a metal distortion u want and if theyre 2 small a distortion pedal can overload it and makes really bad fuzz
@Asteroid232 I don't know, but this one can be powered by some batteries, it's ultra-transportable, sounds fcnk' good and it has a lot of volume even if it's just 5 W (It's 5 Watt, right? O.o)
thats just it? i was expecting higher expectations from this. perhaps, the G-DEC JR. is still on top of my list...but at this price range, i guess its just like smashing all seven amps together to create this one..
LOL, his strat has his name written on it.

the workers at Guitar Center told me that their BOSS pedal section is used by this Roland Micro Cube. I know Roland and BOSS are the same company, but do their BOSS pedals have better tone on Roland Amps than Fender Amps like the Hot Rod Deluxe?

The sound of it it's pretty good, I still use mine for linking to a an active cab, or to the PC with a Cab Simulator!

I like it, but it is good for heavy metal with the right settings?
riptide415 1 year ago
@riptide415 I have one but I have to say that even with my Boss ME-50 distortion it sounds a lot fizzy because the speaker it's too small, though if you connect it to the PC with a Cab Simulator you can get a pretty cool sound with the right settings...

this is a very very very good amp-combo for practicing and training. You can easily play Jimmy Page, Jimi Hendrix or Metallica styles just by switching buttons.

how do you connect stomp boxes (pedals) to this amp?
ChristyOB3 1 year ago
@ChristyOB3 Guitar Cabel -> Stomp Box Input -> Stomp Box Output -> Guitar Cable -> Amp Input. It's easy :D
simulator94 1 year ago
@simulator94 sorry to sound stupid, but does the stompbox connect to the input of the amp where you would normally plug in the guitar or is it a different place? thanks:)
ChristyOB3 1 year ago
@ChristyOB3 uhm, yes? :D seems like you've never used a distortion pedal before :D if you want to use one with this amp here, you have a wider choice of models, that you can crank up with a distortion pedal ;)

can i use a multi effects pedal with this amp? since the amp is always in either one of its COSM amp models, will the pedal effects override the amp effects???

@MetalNewcomers most small amps wont give u a metal distortion u want and if theyre 2 small a distortion pedal can overload it and makes really bad fuzz

Asteroid232 1 year ago
@Asteroid232 I don't know, but this one can be powered by some batteries, it's ultra-transportable, sounds fcnk' good and it has a lot of volume even if it's just 5 W (It's 5 Watt, right? O.o)

thats just it? i was expecting higher expectations from this. perhaps, the G-DEC JR. is still on top of my list...but at this price range, i guess its just like smashing all seven amps together to create this one..
