SONICAKE Pocket Master Guitar Bass Amp Modeling IR Cabinets

Love this wee device, sound is really good, with firmware update it does midi via the usb, battery life is great, small sound is good , NAM support and works with the free NAMs, presets are really good, and they are easily modified, works will with headphones too, so you could basically have this mounted on your belt with belt clip, a wee short cable to the guitar, and a pair of headphones. Does not come with a usb c cable, don't know why, but you need one for power or charging, or using as an audio interface. Can connect via Bluetooth to your phone, phone app is good, and you will need to use Bluetooth if wou want to use the full set of drums rather than just the metronomes. Also allows you to play along with music from phone and properly mixes it. The website has all the firmware updates, software, and drivers for Mac and windows, and the unit also can be used for recording to the pc in DAW or whatever you want. Not really played with the looper that much, but it works, it's only 10 seconds but it you can overdub and pause and restart easily enough. Phone app makes life so much easier when using this. Hold all three buttons to put into firmware update mode of for copying NAM files, can hold 5 NAMs at a time. Loads of good videos on YouTube for demos, and reviews, the best 40 quid I've spent on my guitar for a while, might buy some more for gifts for other people. Buttons are nice and solid so you could use your feet, and belt clip is detachable so you don't scratch wooden flooring. Strong, well made, long battery life, great device.

Over the years I've had many boxes like this all the way back to the original Korg Panadora and onwards through the various Pandora versions they made. They were all great in their own way. This doesn't move the concept on massively except in a few areas - smaller size and the inclusion of bluetooth and a built in battery. All my old headphone practice amps needed an audio cable from whatever backing source you might be playing with, but with this unit streaming wirelessly from my phone is now open to me. A huge plus. You'll still need to plug your guitar in, obviously, but that's it. The unit comes with a robust grip clip so you can attach the unit to your guitar strap. Plug in and you're good to go. The small size means menu diving is the order of the day to change parameters on the patches (of which there are plenty built in) but that's part of the fun to set up your sounds. For the price this is ridiculous value. There's built in drum tracks to play and a metronome, all the things you'd expect. These are decent quality and more than adequate for a little practice device like this. Any shortcomings (say slightly fiddly menus, small screen etc) seem pointless to mention as what else do I expect of a device this small? The performance per £ is off the chart really. I have some nice amps at home but unless I actually wanted to be heard this is what I would reach for every single time.

The great - it's so small you can put it in your trouser pocket. The good - it's rechargeable, take it anywhere and if it needs a recharge in use it's USB C. The OK - the presets are all over-the-top, but can be toned down easily on the phone app. The not so OK - it's not a foot pedal, unless you have tiny feet. It's a finger pedal. The bad - turn on Drums without the app and you just get a metronome. To get drums, you have to go back into the app and reconnect Bluetooth again to get real drums, which is really frustrating. The really bad - using a looper with your your finger (the same finger that needs to be either holding the plectrum or on the fretboard). But for £50 it's incredible and has taught me so much about various FX without having to buy individual pedals. I now have 10 personal presets which cover everything I need.

The unit seems very sturdy, the screen is clear and concise, versatility is stratospheric with separate usb c ports for charging and data, bluetooth connectivity for audio pass thru and patch editing - all this works flawlessly with the free Soniclink app on my phone. For practice at home, backstage noodling, onstage pre soundcheck noodling with headphones or IEMs on this is completely game changing, no more annoying band members with noisy playing, the fx, amp sims sound great to my ears. For small gigs and quick rehearsals I can just bring the pocket master along, with the easy editing and patch functionality I can rustle up sounds in no time, in rehearsals if we need to listen to phone based audio, just link up to bluetooth and problem solved. I can't believe I waited so long to get this, high quality at such a low price it's such a no-brainer!

We have become used to getting amazing audio gear for practically nothing these days and it is sometimes a good thing to step back and take stock. This is not perfect but it is incredible that it is available to all for pocket money. You have to set up presets and so it takes a bit of work to make it work for you, but the sound quality is impeccable (I was a studio engineer back in the 1980s with a few number ones under my belt and I know whereof I speak) and the variety and controllability of the effects, in stereo, particularly if you add midi control, is remarkable. Whether in the end you decide it's for you, only you can tell, but let's not be disappointed it doesn't make the tea as well. If you're a guitarist and you can't sound good with this then go home and practise some more.

Very fun item. Great value. Sounds great and much neater than a bunch of pedals.

It can do some really impressive things to the sound of your mono 1/4" feed from a guitar or synth. Really impressive. But the volume between the presets is extremely inconsistent making switching between them much more work especially as you can only step between them one by one without using the app. So you either go 'quiet loud LOUDER quiet' through them via the buttons or grow an extra hand or two. And it's not easy to control with your feet. Want to have say reverb at only one point in a piece? You'll need to set up some presets yourself and hope you can switch to and from it right. That app almost counts as essential.

Great LITTLE multi effects system, funcions well through headphones, amp or computer. each preset contains effects, amp models and is customisable. contains presets for guitar and bass, rechargable battery is good for 4 to 6 hours constant use. Takes minutes to begin using but is customisable enough to take days to fully explore. small enough to fit in your pocket, one of the best multi effects boxes ive used, great value for money. Okay so nothing is perfect, the tabs take getting used to and the drum machine only works as a metronome unles connected to a computer and the screen icons need good sight or glasses,also the bluetooth is incoming only.

The Sonicake Pocket Master is an amazing little multi effects processor that sounds absolutely incredible. Don’t let the price fool you, this thing packs a punch. It’s very small. The sounds are amazing. It’s pretty easy to use. There’s an app that’s included so you can tweak the parameters on the effects. These settings can also be saved to create your own custom sounds. There’s a drum machine to jam along with. There’s a 10 second looper. The effects quality is great. Lush reverbs, swirling choruses, massive delays and many distortions and gains to get lost in. USB audio interface. Built in tuner. Headphone out. Built in rechargeable battery. I could go on and on. I’m using it as a home recording/practice tool and it’s great. I’m sure it could also be live on a pedalboard as well. This is my second product I’ve purchased by Sonicake and I’m just going to say that the quality and sound and price point are amazing. I’m very impressed with this company and I highly recommend their products to everyone.

% stelle perchè il prodotto fa quello che dice, Ti diverti, ci studi, in cuffia o in cassa, Effetti che vanno regolati perchè di default per i miei gusti c'è sempre troppo Dilay anche dove no serve, Ma tra software che lo gestisce, sia con cellulare che con Ma o Win e possibilità di aggiungere profili Namm, per una scatoletta così piccola e leggera che costa meno di un pedale serie, non si può chiedere di più. Certo non lo consiglio per suonare dal vivo, anche se sarebbe possibile, qui dipende da cosa si vuole come suono finale, io non amo i suoni digitali. Ma chi li usa lo troverà comodo, ti porti chitarra e scatoletta e vai nell'impianto. Ne ho comprato anche un'altro per mio nipote, quindi è uno strumento ottimo, soprattuto per chi studia o per chi come me prova senza dover attaccare ampli valvole in casa o non vuole disturbare usando le cuffie e potendolo fare agevolmente in qualsiasi luogo. Potreste divertirvi con gli amici collegandola alla vostra casa bluetooth in giro per la città. Insomma strumento davvero azzeccato.

Sûrement le meilleur multi effet pour ce prix. Entre la polyvalence et la qualité des effets je pense que c'est difficile de faire mieux dans cette catégorie de petites pédales à modélisations ou bien juste multi effet si on enlève les simulations amp/cab. Un peu long a régler juste avec la molette mais sinon très facile avec l'application. Au top pour l'utilisation que j'en ai.

Wrong version sent. Ordered the transparent white, received the purple one. As it's for a special occasion, I don't have time to return it. Good product it seems, but I can only hope my kid won't be disappointed.

音も良くＣタイプでiPhone 15proに録音も出来て良かった。ただ録音する時iPhoneから必ず電力をとっていくので、iPhoneの充電がすぐなくなる。給電しながらiPhoneを接続するとiPhone側がエラーを起こす。なのでそこだけはマイナスかな。リズムマシンもあってルーパーもある。リズムマシンはしょぼかった。ただ全体的にみてとても良かったので星５つつけます。
