Question 2

How to update the firmware of the ZOOM G9.2TT guitar multi-effects?

Accepted Answer

To update the firmware of the ZOOM G9.2TT guitar multi-effects, you need to use a MIDI connection to a computer with the updater software provided by ZOOM. Unlike other devices, the update is not done via USB stick but through MIDI data transfer.

Required preparation: You need the firmware file downloaded from the ZOOM website (currently version 1.08 available) and the corresponding updater software. First, install the updater software on your Windows or Macintosh computer before proceeding.

Update steps: Start by connecting the G9.2TT to your computer via a MIDI cable, linking the MIDI outputs of the device to the MIDI inputs of your MIDI interface (or sound card) on the computer. Then, with the device turned off, press and hold the [SYSTEM] and [STORE/SWAP] buttons simultaneously, then turn on the device. The message “System Update” should appear on the LCD display of the G9.2TT, confirming that the device is ready for the update.

Launch the updater software on your computer. In the dropdown menu of the updater, select your device for both MIDI IN and MIDI OUT options, pointing to the MIDI interface or sound card being used. Then click the [Check] button to verify the MIDI connection. Once the connection is confirmed, the [Execute] button becomes active, and you can click it to start the update.

Important during the update: The process takes about 5 minutes. Once the updater has started, do not manipulate any buttons or menus on the G9.2TT, and do not cut the power. The device will gradually display the steps of the update. At the end, you will see the message “Your G9.2tt has successfully been updated to Ver. 1.08” (or the corresponding version number). Wait for the device to restart automatically, then turn it off properly once the update is completely finished.

Question 3

How to modify the effect settings on the ZOOM G7.1UT guitar effects pedal?

Accepted Answer

To modify the effect settings on the ZOOM G7.1UT pedal, you first need to enter edit mode. This mode allows you to change the types of effects and their specific settings to create or adjust a patch (a complete sound configuration).

Entering edit mode: Simply press any effect module button on the pedal (COMP, WAH/EFX1, ZNR, PRE-AMP, EQ, CABINET, MOD/EFX2, DELAY, or REVERB). The pedal will immediately switch to edit mode, and the display will show the name of the module and the current effect type.

Selecting and modifying an effect type: Once in edit mode, if the module has multiple effect types (like the MOD/EFX2 module which offers chorus, flanger, pitch shifter delay, etc.), use the [TYPE] command to change the effect type. Each module will then display its specific parameters.

Adjusting the parameters: The four parameter controls (numbered 1-4) on the front of the pedal control each parameter. The display shows in negative the number of the control corresponding to each parameter. Simply turn the control to adjust parameters such as intensity, depth, delay, speed, or other settings specific to the chosen effect.

For the PRE-AMP and EQ modules, you also have dedicated controls from the preamp section: [GAIN] and [LEVEL] for the PRE-AMP, as well as [BASS], [MIDDLE], [TREBLE], and [PRESENCE] for the equalizer. These modules allow separate adjustments for two different channels (A and B).

Testing changes in real time: Play your guitar while adjusting the parameters to immediately hear the impact of your changes on the sound. This allows you to fine-tune the sound according to your musical preferences.

Saving your patch: Once satisfied with the changes, press the [STORE/SWAP] button which will light up during changes. This opens the memory mode where you can save your custom patch in one of the 80 available user memory slots. Your sound configuration will thus remain accessible for your next uses.
