SONICAKE Pocket Master-Portable Multi Effects Pedal, 100+ Built-in Guitar/Bass/Acoustic Effects, Amp Modeling, IR Cabinets Simulation, Stereo OTG USB Audio Interface, Rechargeable (Transparent White)

I simply love it! I have been using all sort of multi fx from 1990, from single pedal to rx racks like digitech valvebfx and legend 2 with footswitch controller. The latest i was using was zoom multistomp(also an excellente option for a small but funtional gig) , about the pocket master itnis simply practicall the sound is good, has almost every fx that a normal guitar player will need, and a lot of pluses, like bluetooth ability to edit on you phone presets and fx, it works as an audio interface too. You can take it everywhere because of its size, and it still be a pedalboard, if you are smart and use presets for changes along a song you dont need anymore than 2 switches. I really simply love it!

Taking into consideration the price of this unit, this is an outstanding product! I play Electric and Acoustic guitar at home, so this multi-effects unit suits me perfectly. Now I have so many choices in front of me and in addition a built-in tuner & looper. Not to mention that you can load your own IR's and NAM files, (five slots for each). You also have a built in drum machine accessible by the mobile app. You can also move 5 of the 9 pedals in the signal chain around and turn then off or on and change their internal parameters as well. Did I mention you can use this unit as a USB interface for recording with a DAW. The pre-sets sound amazing, there are 100 in total and you change 50 of them to your liking. Last but not least you can control the unit using midi. So what's not to like about this multi-effects unit? I can't find a single thing. Buy this unit you won't regret it.

The Sonicake Pocket Master Portable is a fantastic tool for musicians who prioritize portability and ease of use. It's compact, lightweight, and effortlessly fits into any setup, making it perfect for on-the-go practice or quick gigs. The overall sound quality is quite good, offering solid tones that work well for a range of genres. However, where it falls short is in delivering the depth and authenticity needed for certain styles—particularly true metal. Even with additional IRs added for personalization, it struggles to hit the aggressive, high-gain tones required for heavier music. The responsiveness and richness needed for a truly powerful metal sound just aren’t quite there, making it less ideal for players seeking crushing riffs and razor-sharp clarity. That said, for general use, versatility, and portability, the Pocket Master does a commendable job. If you need a reliable, space-saving option for basic practice and performance, it’s a solid choice—as long as extreme metal tones aren’t your main focus.

+easy to use +effects selection is good +good price +nice aesthetic/color choices +portable +bluetooth playthrough +it literally fits in a pocket -battery will eventually degrade -out-of-the-box sounds are passable but not amazing -you will not get "the perfect tone" from this unit -buttons are not "heavy duty" durable its a great unit that falls a bit short of "studio ready" but even then I think you could pull it off.

I love this thing, it was cheap price wise, has a battery to take anywhere, and has good sounds and is small and light. I coupled it with a small battery Amp and my Steinberger SPIRIT guitar, and I have a mini set up to toss on my back and take to the park or jam session. So far I love it for what it is. Most of the effects I could probably use live and nobody would know the difference. I'll usually just do a quick setup at home to practice instead of pulling my entire pedal board out, so it's very helpful as far as that goes. The app makes it super easy to add or subtract effect pedals and there's enough effects to pretty much do anything basic as far as distortion, delay reverb and amps and cabs plus more. For under $100 bucks (around half that) it's 5 stars for sure !!!

Hands down the best piece of gear I've ever bought. Don't even think about it: At $65 you will never regret this purchase. If you dont like ot just retun it, but I doubt you will. This thing is so freaking cool, they definitely undersold it. Could you go out and spend $100 and get a better (insert effect here) pedal. Absolutely. But this thing has EVERYTHING. If you are a beginner? Buy this and dont even look at the more expensive stuff. Songwriter? Dude, you can control this thing from your phone, finding the perfect sound has LITERALLY never been easier. Something they dont really advertise is the fact that you can import and export presets. So if I'm writing a song and I FINALLY find that perfect tone, I can save it or even upload it wherever my project files are so later I can come back right where I started, no need to spend an hour trying to find that perfect tone again. I cannot begin to explain how cool this thing is.

Una auténtica pasada, lo uso para practicar con auriculares, gran calidad de sonido, buenas emulaciones de amplis y los efectos son suficiente para su precio, no son super buenos algunos, pero tampoco son un truño (salvo el noise gate, debería ser más fino y natural). Se controla muy bien con la app android, se puede tocar sobre backing tracks o videos de Youtube por bluetooth. La batería dura bastente (primer uso y sin cargarlo, como venía, + de 4 horas). Como guinda del pastel, carga archivos NAM (preferiblemente Full Rig, es decir, ampli+pantalla, recomendable visitar tone300.com para descargar los amplis) e IR's, 5 huecos para cada de momento, posíblemente ampliable en el futuro vía actualización de firmware. Para tocar en casa es impresionante el sonidazo que se puede tener en 2025 por menos de 60 pavos (guitarristas, el futuro ya está aquí). Recomendodo 100%. Finalmente, comparandola (en calidad de sonido sólo) con la pedalera multiefectos Mooer GE300, que tambien poseo, y costando 10 veces menos, no se queda muy atrás. Vamos, que se podría grabar con con el bicho perfectamente un disco y sonaría de la ostia, aunque no es para eso, es para tocar tirado en sofá con sonido FullHD a lo Petrucci jajajaja!

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.

I don't write a lot of reviews but this unit is a fantastic deal. The quality of the available sounds are unbelievable, at this price point. It's a very compact unit that I highly recommend. It sounds great, it's inexpensive and it runs off a built-in battery! I bought it for travel but I'm actually going to be using it at home a lot and it might end up replacing another unit I have, entirely. The ability to load NAM profiles, at this price point, is a welcome surprise. My main interest with this unit was the ability to load NAM profiles. If that is your main interest, here are the steps I took, with my Apple devices. While these are the steps I took, I still recommend reading the manual, first. These steps should be similar for Windows and Android but your mileage may vary. 1. went to Sonicakes' website and downloaded and installed the pocketMaster software on my Mac computer (NAM profiles were added in a firmware update). I also download the firmware update and the manual. 2. powered up the PocketMaster and hooked it up, by USB, to my Mac. 3. used the software to update the firmware. 4. downloaded the Soniclink app on my iPhone. 5. enabled bluetooth on the PocketMaster and launched the App, pairing my iPhone with the unit. 6. went to the Tone Hunt website and looked for NAM profiles to download to my phone. 7. went to the amp button, in the app. 8. under mode, I clicked on the Clone tab. 9. selected "import clone" and navigated to the unzipped folder and choose the NAM profile to import. 10. selected one of the 5 available slots that said 'empty,' in the app, and pressed "import." 11. tried several NAM profiles in the patch patch I was in to see how they sounded. Final thoughts: I'm blown away by the ease of use, functionality and tones, at this price point. I wasn't keen on some of the presets but every unit I've ever tried was like that. It's a a simple thing to tweak, until they sound good. Frankly, my main purpose was to use NAM profiles with effects and I'm very pleased with how that sounds. The effects are excellent. I wish looper was longer than 10 seconds but the drum patterns and ability to jam along to Youtube Videos on my phone, is all I needed. The PocketMaster is selling out for reason.

We truly are lucky to live in these times where gear this cheap can sound so massive. I bought it as I have come to admit that I have an unhealthy obsession with miniature music gear (tiny synths, guitar pedals, etc) that does big things and this did not disappoint! Very nicely built too (it's plastic and isn't a pedal so be careful), and the smaller NN version of the NAM profiles it can load still sound great! Is it going to replace my Tonex pedal or my EVH amp? Unlikely for serious gig or recording, but I would absolutely rock it for a rehearsal that doesn't require me stomping on it.

Great little product. Added some Ownhammer IRs and this tiny thing competes with my pod go. Just edit the presets easily and intuitively till you get the sound you want. Tried the N.A.M. files on this... they work, but, i prefer just using the presets i make it. Highly recommend 👌
