Features
Thank you for selecting the
ZOOM G7.1ut
(simply called the "
G7.1ut
" in this manual). The G7.1ut is a
sophisticated Multi Effect Processor with the following features.
●
Latest technology for top performance
Excellent sound quality is assured by signal processing featuring 96 kHz/24 bit sampling and internal
32-bit processing. Frequency response remains flat to 40 kHz, and input converted noise is an amazing
-120 dB or better. The built-in USB port serves for direct connection to a computer. You can use the
G7.1ut as audio interface for the computer, allowing direct recording with the supplied DAW software.
●
Versatile array of 92 effects
Out of a versatile palette of 92 effects, up to nine (including ZNR) can be used simultaneously. Recreate
the sound of famous amps and compact effects, use the 6-band guitar equalizer, or select from many
other great effects. The G7.1ut easily surpasses the usual feature complement in this class.
●
Ready-to-go patches
Effect module combinations and settings can be stored and recalled as patches. The G7.1ut offers 80
preset patches that are ready to use right out of the box, plus 80 user patches which can be freely
rewritten, giving you a total of 160 choices. The muting interval when switching patches has been
reduced to less than 7 milliseconds, which makes for virtually seamless patch changes.
●
Great for stage work or direct recording
The pre-amp section features two channels, and each distortion type has two dedicated algorithms, one
for live playing and one for direct recording. The CABINET effect simulates amp and mic recording
characteristics, and the algorithm is automatically switched according to the CABINET on/off setting.
An amp select feature matches the sound to the amp you are using. Connecting the G7.1ut to the power
amplifier input of the guitar amp is no problem: simply set the -10 dBm/+4 dBm switch to the +4 dBm
position.
●
Built-in auto-chromatic tuner supports special tuning requirements
In addition to the standard auto-chromatic tuner, various other tuning methods are possible. The tuner is
designed to allow easy use on stage.
●
Expression pedal supplied as standard
Adjust effect tone or volume in real time with the expression pedal that is built right into the unit. The
possibilities for creative play are endless. The CONTROL IN jack on the rear panel lets you connect an
external pedal (FP01/FP02) and use it as a dedicated volume pedal.
●
Tube powered energizer
The tube-based Energizer shapes the analog output signal to produce that characteristic warm and
dynamic sound that is the hallmark of a tube amplifier.
●
Programmable function switch
The user-programmable function switch further enhances flexibility and lets you optimize the unit for
any application. Use it to switch pre-amp channels, set the delay time, turn hold delay on and off, or for
various other tasks.
Please take the time to read this manual carefully, in order to get the most out of your G7.1ut and to ensure
optimum performance and reliability.

Terms Used in This Manual
This section explains some important terms that are used throughout the G7.1ut documentation.
■
Effect module
As shown in the illustration below, the G7.1ut can be
thought of as a combination of several single effects.
Each of these is referred to as an effect module. In
addition to modules such as the compressor effect
module (COMP), amp simulator/distortion effect
module (PRE-AMP), and modulation effect module
(MOD/EFX2), the G7.1ut also provides a module for
ZNR (ZOOM Noise Reduction). Parameters such as
effect intensity can be adjusted for each module
individually, and modules can be switched on and off
as desired. The module series ZNR, PRE-AMP, EQ,
and CABINET operates as a virtual preamplifier
which is controlled with the knobs and keys on the
pre-amp section of the panel.
■
Effect type
Most effect modules comprise several different
effects which are referred to as effect types. For
example, the modulation effect module (MOD/
EFX2) comprises chorus, flanger, pitch shifter,
delay, and other effect types. Only one of these can
be selected at any time.
■
Effect parameter
All effect modules have aspects that can be
controlled. These are called effect parameters,
adjusted with the parameter knobs 1 – 4 on the panel.
When thinking of an effect module as a compact
effect, the parameters change the tone and effect
intensity similar to the knobs on the device.
■
Patch
In the G7.1ut, effect module combinations are stored
and called up in units referred to as patches. A patch
comprises information about the on/off status of each
effect module, about the effect type used in each
module, and about effect parameter settings.
Expression pedal settings and tempo settings are also
stored for each patch individually.
■
Bank and group
Patches are organized in preset groups (A, b) which
are read-only, and user groups (U, u) which can be
modified. Since each group comprises 40 patches,
groups A, b, U, and u offer a total of 160 patches.
In the G7.1ut, patches are called up four at a time
and selected with the foot switches. These four
patches are together referred to as a bank. There
are ten banks in a group, numbered 0 through 9.
■
Modes
The G7.1ut has five different operation modes, as
listed below.
●
Play mode
In this mode, patches can be selected and played.
This is the default mode of the G7.1ut that is
always active when power is turned on.
●
Manual mode
In this mode, you play your instrument while
using the foot switches to turn modules on and off.
●
Edit mode
In this mode, the effect parameters of a patch can
be edited (changed).
●
Store mode
This mode serves for storing edited patches. It also
allows changing the store positions of patches.
●
Bypass/mute mode
When the G7.1ut is in the bypass condition, effect
processing is temporarily turned off and only the
original sound is heard. In the mute mode, all
sound is turned off. The built-in tuner can be used
in either condition.
