I am thoroughly impressed with the Mooer Prime p1! This will prove to be an indispensable tool for me. It has so many possible uses and simply sounds really amazing. I can use it as an entire rig (electric guitar, bass guitar, or acoustic electric) straight into my computer’s recording interface via 1/4” cable. I have also tried it in front of a traditional amp for using the dynamics, overdrive pedals, or even some of the modulation effects. I also like the results using it in the fx loop of the amp (after the preamp and before the power amp), getting some cool delay, reverb, and modulation after the preamp. And of course it could be used right into a PA at a live show. Or play it into headphones. What a useful tool! I really love that I can use it for not only electric guitar but bass and acoustic-electric as well. I think the Prime p1’s preamps and cabinet simulations sound fantastic, and there are a plethora to choose from. All of the effects sound great and can be arranged in whatever order you like. The iOS/Android app is very easy to use and connects to the Prime p1 via Bluetooth seamlessly. Within the app, you’ll have complete control over your setup and presets, and there are some other handy tools, like the looper, tuner, and drum machine. There is also direct recording into a mobile device via USB (haven’t tried that yet, but maybe I’ll use that feature one day as well). Be sure that your Prime p1 is on the latest firmware (go to “P1”, then “Settings,” scroll to bottom). The Prime p1 is a fantastic device that I would recommend to any guitarist or bassist.

Honestly I thought this wouldnt be a good pedal. But it far exceeded my expectation, the value for money that you get with this is awesome, quality of sound is amazing, Battery life is pretty good for a live gig and the power supply its a damn battery with a cable! this thing is practically a no brainer for gigging or just for practice. durability on this thing is just as good as other pedals youll find on the market! With bass i use some of the default presets and that's including Distortion. So far my favorite settings by far have been Finger 4, slap, FX01 and heavy 1. Distortion sounds amazing as it carries your bass guitar long and far and will cut through for a mix or live show! Finger 4 makes sure you can accompany your bandmates. fx01 is great for a tasteful solo, and slap is for fun in my opinion. overall a 5 star for bassists.

Excellent unit, great design for practice and portability. You do get a significant downgrade in FX quality and overall sound quality compared to their higher end units, but the sound is more than good enough for even improvised gigs. Tools are very useful (tuner, looper, mixer, etc), bluetooth playback with the mixer makes this unit the best practice tool I have ever had for guitar practice! NOTE: the looper has a small delay between pressing the switch and recording making it unusable, Las to stop recording and start play, I figured how to make it half usable by enabling Rec on input signal and stopping Rec at switch pedal off, but they should fix this on Firmware update! Over all it is still an amazingly useful teaching, practice, and, learning tool!

So for a quick background, I typically play guitar through tube amplifiers with a pretty significantly sized pedal board, although I own and occasionally play through a modeling amplifier. I have been playing with the Prime P1 pedal for a few weeks now, and have been extremely impressed. This pedal, for me, gives me the best of both worlds in a very easy to use product. Essentially, I feel that the Prime P1 offers an extraordinary, almost endless, amount of tones in a very small and simple interface. It literally does everything that both of my modeling amps do, and I find it much easier to use, having it linked to my cell phone. I play this most often through my 5150 on the clean channel and am able to get phenomenal variations that in many ways makes my pedal board obsolete. I've been able to set up and save effects that fit into everything in my set lists, and can switch settings quickly and easily. I see this pedal as becoming a standard piece of my kit and would recommend it to anyone looking for a very effective and affordable manner in which to broaden their tonal abilities!

Awesome little multi effect! It packs many preset tones (mostly overdriven) but with the phone app you can customize so many parameters including basics like chorus, phaser, vibrato.. lots of amps and cabs to choose from in the effects as well but with the built in presets you have a great range of sounds to jam with. Apart from effects it has metronome, drums and my favorite the looper! Works beautifully with basses apart from guitars , I have tried with headphone output for night practice and outputting to an audio interface to get the sound from speakers, both sound great. I haven’t tried with bigger amps but I feel this pedal is perfect for home or street jamming if you use a battery powered amp, the pedal battery has been lasting around 4 hrs in long jam sessions. The phone app doesn’t have the best design and can be a bit overwhelming but it does a good job at guiding and pointing the user where to click to get it working quickly, and like mentioned at the begining it’s surprisingly technical and customizable. So far loving this “pedal” and how portable it is, if you compare it with a traditional multi effect that takes at least 5 times the space of this one. A jamming pedal for sure :D

Great in theory. Works fine until you're required to update FW. I've had two brick on me during this update. Both times using the provided USB C cable which is plugged directly into the system board. The software sucks. Support doesn't read your email and just tells you to do the same trouble shooting steps as before. TLDR: Hardware is fine, software feels like it was vibe coded with no QA. Kills the device.

This is a versatile amp and effects modeling processor in a package not unlike an iPod classic. It is smaller than an average guitar pedal, and doesn't really work as a pedal, itself (there is a linkable footswitch, but I don't have that). As far as onboard controls go, there is a button to switch between the first four presets (which can be your presets if you overwrite those slots), and a jog wheel for volume control. You long press the button to turn it on and off. When paired with an app, you get a lot more controls. There are a wide variety of amp and effect emulations, and I appreciate that you can move the order of the models around. In particular, I like the ability to run compressors, delays, and modulations either before or after the amp emulation. It worked well for playing with headphones right out of the box. I tried it through a Marshall half stack, both through the clean channel on the front end, and through the effects loop. It worked better through the effects loop with the amp and cab emulation, but had a lot more bass than I wanted to start with. After poking around the app a bit, I found a setting to run it that way, and it was much better. I am not sure I would use it that way all the time, because I have a lot of pedals. I think I might use it more as either a portable practice tool, or most likely, as a portable effects source for portable synthesizer jams, for which it is very well suited. I appreciate that the initial sound you access by default is a restrained clean tone with some delay, which sounds great on any synth (I mostly tested it with an Arturia Microfreak). When you dig into the app, there are a variety of effects that are rather more suited to synthesizer sounds (in particular, ring modulation and an automated filter sweep), and the touch screen interface works on those better as something you are going to adjust in real time. I find the range that many of the effects rather too large for many classic guitar sounds, but as sound design tools for synthesizers, they are pretty great. The internal battery works well for DAWless jamming, since it doesn't need to be plugged in like other effects pedals, so it's a lot less fiddly for that. With just USB power supplies for synths, you can be ready to go. The app also features onboard features like bluetooth audio streaming, drum patterns, a tuner, and a metronome, which can be handy for both practice and creative routing solutions. I have recently tried some other products like this, and while this one is more app-based with fewer controls on the actual device, but as an all-around solution for creating my own sounds in a variety of situations, I like this one. Other ones designed to plug into guitar jacks provide similar sounds and features, but are a bit fiddlier to use in effects loops and for synthesizers, and I think that is where this one shines.

As someone who took over 15yrs off of guitar for life, family, house, career, etc... this thing has been truly been Indispensable to me. I can practice at any point in time in the day and not disturb anyone. Just bring this, my headphones, a guitar cable and guitar. Connect it up to my phone and done. Pros: Small form factor. Great sound. Lots of possible sound options. Mix and match pre-amps, amp heads, cabinets. Then some decent effects that you can add into your signal chain. I'm a metal head so I love being able to go through and play these replica Mesa, Orange, Dr Z, etc... amps/cabs. It's been a lot of fun. I like the looper feature. Being able to record something and then go back work on harmonies or do a lead (not me so much) or little melody over it. The built in drum beats are pretty limited. You aren't changing to crazy time signatures and mixing up different drum patterns and linking patterns together. Still, if you want to pick your BPM and pick the sound of your drums (genre driven), its fun to play along and create something. The tuner is a nice feature as well. Not needing to drop out of the MOOER P1 app to go to a different app to tune the guitar is nice. I like being able to control the mix level between what I'm trying to play along to on my phone and the output of the MOOER. The "cloud tone" options is nice as well as an option. Being able to create your own and save them and have them dump up to the cloud and be able to try other people's tones. All good things. Negatives, to me: Limited drum patters Battery lasts about 4hrs before it needs to be charged again - it's advertised as such, but it doesn't change the fact its a negative. You can record yourself along with the drums using the looper, but sometimes this function doesn't work as expected. Sometimes you stop the drums and they keep going and maybe you don't want them in your loop. The volume control is easy to use, but it doesn't seem like you can get to a really fine adjustment where you want it. No real "online help". It kind of just kicks you to a YouTube video that doesn't have any audio to explain and do a deep dive on any of the features. Definitely watch reviews on YouTube to get a good idea of how powerful this device really is. Taylor Danley on YouTube does a decent review (IMO). I've watched at least 5 or 6 different reviews of the device before I bought it and even after owning it for a few months, Taylor's review taught me even more. No clear indicator if there is an update to the device. A software push or some sort of notification saying "hey, we've addressed some bugs or added some features and get your latest update in the Play store or something". ANYTHING, but nothing. The tone cloud or cloud tone or whatever you want to call it, its slow, its cumbersome. No great way to search it. You can download anything you want from there, but you will need to overwrite one of your existing presets that shipped with the unit. You may not care about the presets, but then again you may. No clear way to take those "cloud tones" and mark any as Favorites and quickly revisit your favorites. If you record something on the looper that you want to keep, there is no way to "export" that out as an MP3 or other audio file that you could potentially share or listen to on another device. READ the reviews. Watch Reviews (both sponsored and non sponsored) on YouTube. Find out if it is a good fit for you and what your needs are. It's great for me if I'm traveling and want to bring a guitar to play along. Maybe I want to bring a guitar to the office and play on my lunch break? Put one in a gig bag, toss in a cable, headphones and the MOOER and I'm good. It's nice to be around the family and be able to play with "an amp and effects" without disturbing them at all. Total win. I can't recommend it enough. Lastly - I gave it 4 out of 5 stars, because - sadly, there is always room for improvement. You've seen my negatives listed here. I'd like to be able to use bluetooth headphones instead of wired headphones. I'd like to be completely wireless (sadly, latency) but I can't be. I'd like more drum patterns. Be able to record more than 1 loop of music. Still, it is an amazing product for less than the cost of a decent practice amp. Just buy it.
