  • got some pimpin shoes bro, beast bass effect too

  • Buenaza el slap de AEROPLANE

  • I wanna say the noise you're getting on the pedal is from the compressor limiter setting that they have in the patches, i recommend if you're ever making a patch to turn this option off, at least that's how it is with my b2 pedal, i don't have the usb one.

  • @Pigasustheimmortal of course you could also get 500 k audio potentiometers and that'll reduce the noise pick up, made a beautiful improvement on my bass.

  • Cool pedal! Is there a normal wah-wah controllable with expression peddle?

  • A4 Patch (Yes!)

    "Progressive rock sound, taking a hint from Yes bassist Chris Squire." - Zoom B21u Operation Manual

  • Does it include flange and reverb?

  • hey your reviews on zoom b and a 2.1u are nice. But i've a zoom g2.1u and i can't din't your review on it. If you have one. . Pls give me the link to it. It'd help a lot

  • 3:40 sounds like the scott pilgrim bass battle

  • 7:10 aeroplane is the way :D it obsesses me!

  • Comment removed

  • hey, i have the Zoom b2 (without the expression pedal) and C5 doesnt work at all, it just has a regular sound on it, same for D2 (exept D2 has no sound at all for me), the sounds worked for about 5 minutes, untill i turned my amp off, then turned it back on later, and A3, C5, and D2 have never worked since then.

  • Can anybody tell me please if the toom B2.1u has got a loop machine in it ?

  • @VanDam93 zoom*

  • aeroplane at 7:06!! best song ever

  • Thanks man :) Nice vid !

  • You can afford this but you can't afford a new pair of shoes ???? Na good help Thanks ...

  • but would this work when playing with my band on stage? because i couldnt change from say a2-a5 inbetween verse and chorus could i?

  • @ZED305 Switching between that many would be tricky. What would be better would be to save the effects you want in the saveable patches, customize your own, and that shit. Of course, I've gotten used to fast changing on stage. Takes a little practice, the latter.

  • Can you mix effects ?

  • I'm guessing the noise is either from a bad cable or loose jack.

  • of these three pedals which would you say is the best?

    digitech bp200

    digitech bp 355

    zoom b2.1u

  • i have one of these., great effects. im looking for a software that can edit there patches.

  • Great review! ;-)

  • I have a Zoom G1X guitar effects pedal. Do you know if it will be okay for playing bass, meaning it might not sound optimal, but it won't harm the electronics?

  • @orangesv650 no the electronics will be fine i use a boss me50 guitar pedal and i use bass and nothing has happened the electronics yet

  • @dylanioi1 cool man thanks I have been using it for bass for a few weeks now and its fine..the guitar amp models work pretty good with it too

  • 3:35 :D

  • Can i input a MIC, and play life performans of beatbox ?

  • 3:33 AROUND THE WOOOOOOOOOOOORLD ! I started to shout "OOOOOOOOH" Like Kiedis !

  • Isnt there a cliff burton patch?

  • damn forget the pedal this guy is a pretty good player

  • Cordell Mosson was bass player for the album with flashlight neverless bassline was done on keyboards

  • how much money did  you spend on that pedal?

  • around the wold!!!

  • Can I get these sounds with a B1? I don't want to shell out moolah for this or the B2! =P

  • what does the big pedal marked zoom on it do?? and what is the diffrence bettween the B2 and this one??

  • what does the big pedal marked zoom on it do??

  • Finally found a review of this pedal that isn't Spanish...

  • I think im will be buying this pedal for sure now

  • patches are great. But I think you have to start patching your shoe too.

  • Great video but I think zoom makes some of the worse effect boxes I had one for the guitar and like this one it had only a few useable presets and the user settings take way too much effort

  • anyone knows if it´s got whah-whah????

  • @AlcidesMorais if you watched the video you would have seen that yes, there is a wha effect

  • @MusicISLife9500 - thanks music life,i already bougth it, i,m still explore all the functions. i recommend it, its a nice pedal for a nice price.

  • Thanks, G. Not sure if it's something I want but you gave a nice demo which is more than I can say for some of the so-called "knowledgeable" and "helpful" salespeople at my local music stores.

  • its my aeroplane!!!

  • the noise is obviously a dodgy cable somewhere, ive had many a dodgy cable to realise a crap connection/signal when i hear it ;)

  • this is great, I was at the store unsure if I wanted to buy this, and now that i've listened to this and what it can do I'm definitely sold! Thanks very helpful!

  • to small, to light, weak sounds, background noise....no thanks.

  • Could you use this with the RC-50 and change the sound of your vocals if using a mic?

  • Is this better or worse than the line 6 bass floor POD?

  • @sidtheslothful line 6 bass floor pod is a piece of shit.

  • bom tutorial!

  • youre awesome!!!

  • ur shoe is torn!!

  • i have one¡¡

  • Noise on the pedal? No good for live playing.

    The sound tech will kick you in the goolies.

  • man,i have gotta say...you are really good at playing bass

  • Well I wanted o get this for christmas. After this video, Im definitely gonna buy this

  • how much is this pedal?

  • this or it's bigger brother b9.1ut? what's the difference beween 'em

  • in love (w/ pedal)

  • i have ordered one of those now.. you are sure great on the bassguitar. good vid to

  • what bass do you play?

  • The ones beginning with a letter the ones you CAN edit.

  • With this, when you plug it into the PC via usb, does it have its own VSTi for recording? or do you need to use one like PODFarm Pro Tools...

  • b2 and b21u have the same sounds? the only diferrence its the pedal? and the usb?

  • @xPrOvOx yes and the b2.1u also has an xlr out

  • Comment removed

  • @xPrOvOx

    Yes, It's like g2 vs g2.1u that's the diference, but, 2.1u's pedals are better because you can choose the effect you want to control...

  • best Intro Music ever! NOT! xD

  • 7:07 aeroplane by RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS ;D

  • just bought this and I can't find a Univibe type effect on this. The Zoom BFX-708 I own has it

  • 7:20 its my aeroplane :D

  • i have the b1x :) its awesome too

  • A2 would be great to play Muse's Hysteria bass riff.

  • @MikelSeo just thinking that same thing =] i use a behringer super fuzz for it, it sounds the same as the live recordings, its only about $35, really high quality.

  • @HELLJUMP3R7 oh. okay. But i don't have a good impresion of behringer Coz last time i bought a berighner stompbox(it was called heavy metal i think) for my electric guitar and it was really bad.

  • @MikelSeo not sure about them i've only ever owned the super fuzz but its a hell of a nice pedal you should really get it if you're a bassist. never had any problems with it plus its only about $35 USD (£25 GBP)

  • does the expression pedal return to its position after you release it? mine doesn't and the guy at the store says that is the way it is

  • @yakopablo nope, its not meant to. mine doesnt

  • if uve seen many of the other videos u would know who is talking. its the guy with the beard who always says uhh.

  • its noisy?

  • Three questions: Can I use wah and distortion at the same time? Would you recommend this as a first multieffect pad? And how is that connected to an amp?

  • An Amzing video, but it does not do justice to the pedal. I haven't seen any video showcase the abilities of a pedal like this, nothing nearly this well. But the pedal has let me create some really awesome sounds for my bass, definitely do not regret buying. Just don't do what i did and use old remote batteries - nearly died mid-show.

  • @DanScodellaro i've had some amazing sounds out of it. shame i messed around and buggered them up :-/

  • Thanks very much :-) I think ZOOM should pay you some money as I'm buying the pedal because of this demo as I couldn't find a music store to try it out myself :-D

  • lol c4

    

  • thanks for this video!

  • I'm buying one next Monday - as a end of year 11 exams gift to myself :P

  • @DanScodellaro

    So am I, although I'm a bit late :-D

  • @Mudskippersam It is Aeroplane :)

  • @Avonik in 3:30 it's Around The World man

  • what was that crackling - was it the pedal the amp or the bass?

  • @Smoothbassline it might have been the camera

  • i love the D2 setting! :D

  • Thanks for upload ^^

  • anyone know where I can find the names of all the default patches? The names used in this video aren't in the manual and I've looked some and can't find them online.

  • @Axel15810 zooms website is were i found them ;)

  • do you know how to reset all settings saved by "store" on zoom b2?

  • Hi, can i connect a mic with phantom power to play other instruments using reverb or delay?

  • damn dude your show is shiny but good review

  • in A4 i can hear more pick than i can tone from the strings! yuck!

  • купи новые кроссовки

  • were you actually slapping around 7:20-7:30 or is that the effect.

  • nice! I like C4 and i think A4. I love how he was playing Aeroplane with C4 for the Flea-based effect. I think I'm going to buy this on amazon when I get the money. Thanks for the vid. =)

  • Can i tune with this pedal?

  • @aleksandros14 yeah you can dude, hold both switches down and it goes into bypass/ tune mode :)

  • hey how did you know the effects on the pedal? where its not on its manual what the effects are.. like artist preset and bass amplifier presets

  • The ZOOM B 2 BASS FX is my next effect gadget.

    Thank you for the great videoclip.

  • what about the construction of the pedal?

    Is it reliable?

  • @aleksandros14 - Its actually really solid

  • Can i connect my bass on my computer through this pedal and have a good sound?

  • i love how the cable starts moving at 6:50 ^^

  • Comment removed

  • @PhuckHue2 7xx and 5xx series were released almost 10 years ago. New batch of their products are apparently of higher quality.

  • you can tell its owen o malley by the amount of "uhs".

  • those damned blue collar tweakers on d9, nice!!

  • 3:33 sounds like the chili peppers

  • 3:36 rhcp around the world :D

  • does this pedal has Fuzz effect?

  • i need help i got my pedal used and it does is say 61 66 over and over i don't know what to do because i don't have the manual

  • hi in a0 what's the eq?

  • Hey, Cheers for the video, i would just like to know, what amp you played the pedal through?

  • this isn't helpful i want to know what effects it got no u talking for 11:40

  • intro too loud...i've got zoom b2(had it for 2 years now) but i still want this one with the "wah-pedal"....also what bass are you using in this video?

  • @bangaroodong Sorry i know you posted that comment two months ago lol.

    But can you tell me how to program effects into the Zoom B2, i'm considering buying it but i don't want to buy extra leads to plug it into my computer to program effects.

    I'm guessing you don't need to plug into a computer but i don't understand why this Zoom B2.1u has a usb feature.

  • @BennyJ69 hey, benny...

  • 何言ってるかわからない

  • I just got this effect pedal its awesome, and i love the drum machine.

  • would be interesting what kind of bass you use. maybe you could answer im pretty eager to know

  • This pedal also comes with the zoom noise reduction(znr) which you can use to fix all those noisy presets..

  • on 4:06 is roundabout by Yes... is that effect pedal good?? i think of buying it....

  • Zoom B2 sucks ????

  • 3:35 Around The World by RHCP????? :D

  • yea

  • @freeviber YES!

  • @freeviber yeah

  • @freeviber yeah but waay to fast

  • sold

  • Can i edit the same sounds with my zoom b1x?

  • yes i have b1x and there's no difference... only the expression pedal

  • yes, there is a ist of things you can tell the pedal to conyrol

  • If you set it up for that, yeah you can

  • C4 is awsome :)

  • @honkiemarge You could say its quite... "explosive" :D

  • con este pedal uno le puede bajar el tono al bajo??

  • a qué te referís con bajarle el tono al bajo?? Si querés saber si tiene opciones de pitch shift, como poder tocar una 5tas, 6tas, 8vas abajo... entonces si, puede hacerlo.

  • si, trae octaver o pitch shifter

  • whats the riff called on 7:06~7:30? from what i remember - it was one of Flea's riffs.

  • Aeroplane

  • aeroplane

  • any noise from the pedal can be mitigated by the znr noise gate--

  • i got on for fifty bucks but my only problem is that there are too many features and i feel like i dont have enough lifetimes to play around with it

  • Hi!

    You've tried playing a guitar

    with B2.1U ..?

    How will sound?

    Thank you.

  • I plugged my guitar in it, it sounds ok, obviously some effects don't sound as great but some of them such as the distortion ones are ok. If you're gonna get a pedal, just get the guitar version

  • they have the same version for guitar its black though check it out

  • i lost the box so i dont know how to do any thing with it

  • I think you can download a manual on the website of te store you bought it from...IM NOT SURE. =D

  • how much cost it?

  • b/w $150-$200 which might be the best bet compared to other bass pedals.
