Frequently Asked Questions
Mooer has focused on minimizing latency, but real-world performance will depend on your device and setup. A wired connection is always recommended for live use.
The app is fairly straightforward, but mastering the full range of features will require some time and experimentation. There are plenty of online resources and tutorials available.
While the modeling is impressive for the price, dedicated hardware will generally offer a more nuanced and 'organic' sound. Consider it a fantastic starting point and a huge value proposition.
