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)

Excellent bang for your buck, here. Toms of effects and amps, plus the ability load your own NAM and IRs. Sturdy and well built, even though it's plastic. It comes with a clip and is small enough, I often hang it on my strap. No buzz or interference, whether plugged in or running of battery, which lasts forever. Might be the best 65 bucks you can spend on a multi effect unit. Especially considering the amp modeling. You can also pair an M-Vave chocolate plus midi controller for programmable external foot switches. The presets were good enough, but there are also 50 slots for user load outs as well. Honestly, probably worth it as a standalone distortion, reverb, delay, or OD pedal alone. And the fact that is has bass effects, amps, and cabs is icing on the cake. Super versatile, super cheap, super good.

+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.

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.

Amp modelers are getting better and cheaper all the time. The SoniCake Pocket Master is the latest proof of that. This unit is truly the latest marvel in that it gives pretty good, believable tones, has a looper (albeit 10 sec.), full multi effects like bigger units and is about the size of an average cell phone. Why would you want this? Well... It will allow you to practice anywhere you can take your guitar - even acoustic or bass. It sounds great and you throw it in your guitar case and go. All of this and the rechargeability makes this whole package a player's dream. The SoniCake represents the fact that an amp modeler no longer has the be big and expensive to sound and feel good. To make it even better, there is a phone app that lets you dive deep into the settings to customize the presets. I've been practicing on this every day and highly recommend it for its sound and quality for what it's made for.

This isn't going to replace your Kemper but it is a very useful practice tool. Presets out of the box are really good, BT allows you to play with backing tracks. The looper is a little on the short side but very usable to lay down a few chords and jam along. By far the best headphone amp on the market and it also sound very good through my 100 Watt 2x12. Just buy it.

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 !!!

I have over 70 pedals both very boutique and expensive and budget friendly too. And this pedal is an Unbelievable pedal for the price. Just buy it. The amount of effects blocks, with a looper and drum sounds for practice along with Bluetooth. I mean it’s an absolute beast. And the fact that it is rechargeable makes it so much more usable. Pedal Quality - amazing. Weight - quite light. Functionality - amazing. Tone - unbelievable for the price.

Warto. Za takie pieniądze na prawdę warto. Mały ale wariat

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!

Obwohl das Gehäuse aus Plastik ist, macht es einen soliden Eindruck. Die Tonqualität ist, ohne sie nachgemessen zu haben subjektiv sehr gut. Ich hatte, habe einen kleinen, direkt in die Gitarre steckbaren Pocketverstärker, der sobald Reverb mit ins Spiel kommt ziemlich rauscht und knarzt. Dieses Gerät tut das nicht. Ich habe es als USB Soundinterface getestet - mit den mitgelieferten Treibern gibt es keine merkbare Latenz bei Mehrspuraufnahmen. Sehr erfreulich! (Getestet mit Audacity). Die Effekte sind wirklich brauchbar und stark modellierbar. Der Tuner ist sehr handlich und einfach gehalten. Die Software (auf Win11 bei mir) hat auf Anhieb funktioniert. Die auf dem Gerät installierte Firmware war bereits auf neuestem Stand. Das Verbinden von Ton und dem Gerät mittels Blootooth hat auch geklappt. Man muss 2 Verbindungen herstellen - eine für die Gerätekonfiguration und eine für den Ton, um BackgroundTracks einspielen zu können und vermutlich auch um die vielen vorhandenen Percussion-Tracks hören zu können, die nur in Verbindung mit der Handy App funktionieren. Ich finde das Gerät insgesamt intuitiv bedienbar, aber da werden die Meinungen vermutlich divergieren. Eine Bedienungsanleitung hab ich bislang nicht gebraucht. Resümee: Alles, was ich mir erhofft habe, dass das Gerät leistet, tut es auch.

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.

Pour le prix auquel il est, c'est tout simplement étonnant d'avoir autant de fonctionnalités. Je cherchais à la base une pédale de préampli avec une prise casque pour pouvoir jouer dans être tributaire d'un ampli volumineux et pas très convaincant à faible volume. Le tout à prix très contenu évidemment. Mission largement accomplie pour le pocket master, qui fait en plus multi effets, accordeur, looper et interface audio pour le brancher à un DAW par exemple. C'est inespéré à ce prix. Tout est parfait vu l'utilisation que j'en ai, à tel point que je suis passé de 8 pédales à... Deux ! Il fonctionne aussi sur batterie. Parmi les multiples effets et amplifications disponibles, il accepte aussi les profils NAM avec toutefois une légère dégradation du son, mais ça reste tout à fait jouable et pour le prix, rien à redire. Seul reproche lié à l'utilisation que j'en ai : deux reverbs parmi celles proposées ne sont pas vraiment exploitables, elles se contentent de produire un sorte de souffle pas très convaincant. Mais pour le reste, c'est totalement une bonne affaire vu le prix, il m'est vite devenu indispensable.
