About this item

  • [Rich and Delicate Sound] With FAVCM technology and high-precision 24 bit/44.1 kHz audio processing, Arena2000 Multieffects Processors greatly reduce the "plastic taste" of the digital effect, making the tone more layered, allowing you to play real emotions without reservation
  • [278 Effect Types] 100 classic effect simulations, 80 amp simulations, and 50 cabinet simulations, which provide a wide range of legendary guitar tones from music history. Whether it's fresh urban pop or high-speed thrash metal, you'll find all the tones you want!
  • [Long IR Resolution] 50 built-in IRs and 50 extra banks for third-party IRs. The IR resolution of Arena2000 is up to 23.2 ms, which can precisely restore the tone of the IR collection object and reproduce the acoustic environment of the collection space, resulting in a tone with a greater dynamic range and a stronger sense of spatial authenticity
  • [One Man Band] With 40 drum rhythms and 60 seconds looper, Arena2000 guitar effects can quickly record demos or perform live as a one-man band. It’s also equipped with a headphone output for late-night creation/practice. And you can rapidly capture your inspiration using OTG and your phone
  • [Full Function Transformed from Bedroom to Stage] Customizable CTRL mode and EXP1/EXP2 expression pedal for flexible real-time parameter adjustments. You can also edit and control the tone via Arena2000 CONTROL in computer or mobile phone. Arena2000 also has Aux In, MIDI In, XLR L/R, and a cabinet simulation (Cab Sim) output option that allows users to switch between the 1/4 output port and the XLR output port, which makes it handy for artists to perform live
  • (Please be aware) We recommend using headphones with an impedance range of 32-64 ohms. Impedance that is too high may result in low headphone volume. And this product does not come with a battery compartment

THE PEDAL IS EXCELLENT, BUT THE SOFTWARE STINKS
4 out of 5 stars
THE PEDAL IS EXCELLENT, BUT THE SOFTWARE STINKS
First off, it comes with a power adaptor. Hey Donner -- say so in the product description, and in the photos.Pros:1) Darn good pedal! 150 built-in presets -- a few are excellent, most are not, but every one of them is editable with 80 nicely modeled amps, 50 cabs, and well over a hundred effects, drive, delay, reverb, EQ, compression, and gate. It has a 60-second looper (which I haven't used), and 40 drum loops in 10 genres.2) Navigating through the presets is a cinch (but turn the volume down).3) Editing/creating presets and adjusting amps and effects is fairly easy and intuitive, once you learn how.4) The iPhone app connects easily and works well; it’s easy to navigate the presets and effects, but not so easy to adjust them.Cons:Biggest issue: If this thing had a touch screen, and if the screen were larger, the device would be practically flawless. Other issues:1) Fairly steep learning curve.2) Badly written user manual.3) Important buttons are dark-on-dark: impossible to read in anything except bright light, and easy to touch by accident.3) Android app installs but does not run on my Amazon Fire HD8, so I can’t evaluate it.4) Windows software is COMPLETELY USELESS – it installs, but doesn’t recognize the device. This means no firmware updates, and no importing IRs.5) No pass-through: the pedal must be powered on, so you'll probably want to create a couple "clean" presets for pass-through.I’m a living room guitarist, and it was time to step up from my cool little Donner Alpha Cruncher to a multi-effect pedal. I tried – and returned – two different multi-pedals before this one (both of them more expensive). It was a rocky start, but I really like the Donner now. The user manual is simply awful – it doesn’t even tell you how to edit and save a preset (use the “store” button) – and when it does tell you how to do something, it’s convoluted and confusing (I still haven’t quite figured out how to assign the effects pedal). But a couple hours fiddling around will get it working for you.Software: the iPhone app works very well for navigating presets and effects, but it’s difficult to use the app’s tiny control wheels to change things like volume, etc. I use the knobs on the pedal for this. The Android app installs but does not run on my Amazon Fire HD8 tablet, so look elsewhere for that review. I really wish I could control the device from the nice big screen on the Fire. Hey Donner -- make it Fire-compatible, please.And Windows? HUGE FAIL: it installs on Windows 10, but the software refuses to recognize the device when it’s connected, even though Windows recognizes it. Without the Windows software, there will be no firmware updates, and no importing IRs. YO DONNER: FIX THIS, IMMEDIATELY!Donner doesn’t provide a list of presets/amps/effects/etc., so I made one. Amazon won’t let me post a link, but if you search for this string, the first hit will be on a forum called The Gear Page. Scroll down on page 3, and you’ll find the document. Here’s the search string:thegearpage arena 2000 presets________________________________Final disclosure: I returned it after six weeks. It's darn good, but I spent all my time fiddling with the pedal and not playing the guitar. I'm back to the Alpha Cruncher -- one button each for delay, chorus, and distortion, and you really don't need much more than that. Maybe I'll add a single-use pedal or two down the road, but I'm a much happier guitar player.

Reviewed in the United States on February 11, 2024
I've been using guitar processors for decades, lately I've been using tge hx stuff from line 6. This thing is certainly not a helix, but it's sound quality is certainly close if you take the time to dial it in and the control features are nearly on par with the pod go.

Likes:
1.) Bluetooth connectivity for control via phone/tablet.

2.) Amp and Cab sounds are amazing when dialed in properly.

3.) Comes with a dotted eigth delay with tap tempo! (handy for the worship guitarist)

4.) Very compact size (half the size of the pod go)

Dislikes:

1.) Volume pedal does not have a toe switch to turn on wah (the press of a second button is required, or you just program seperate patches for wah)

2.) Buttons and knobs are a bit sensitive (using the phone/tablet bluetooth feature remedies this)

3.) Not really a dislike as it makes the unit feel more true to the feel of an analog setup: patches need to be dialed for different guitars ie: single coils vs humbuckers. This thing is very dynamic in the tone department!

Tips for those looking to use this thing:

1.) In the cab block roll the hipass and lowpass to 60hz and 12500hz. This will eliminate the "angry bee" artifacts in the high end and any muddiness in the low end.

2.) Utilize the eq block, 10 band eq is great for sculpting tone!

3.) When it comes to drive and this universally true, especially with digital modelers, less is more!

4.) Start by shaping your core tone before adding a ton of effects and copy and paste that tone across several patches when you get it dialed in.

5.) Play around with mic type and placement in the cab block as it makes a HUGE difference in tone.

6.) The pure boost effect in the either of the fx blocks are great for evening out volume levels of patches when placed directly after the cab block. (Assuming the cab block is after all gainstages.

Conclusion: for the $$ this thing is an absolute steal! It just takes a little time dialing it in, but the tones are in there. I would feel confident gigging with this unit, but then again I tend to take care of my gear. I was leary at first given donners name being associated with cheap gear that leaves alot to be desired sonically, but this unit has single handedly changed my mind completely. Don't be afraid to get this unit, it is great.

Reviewed in the United States on June 24, 2023
I was looking for a multi-effects pedal when I came across this one. I have a lot of Donner products and have been quite pleased with their products. This pedal really outdoes some of the others available. The screen is easy to read, and after taking time to learn how to control things, it is quite intuitive. The sounds are really good as well. I do wish they made a list available of all the built-in effects. This pedal is almost perfect for those looking for a budget-friendly unit.

Compared to some of the other pedals I researched, there were some really good advantages to this one:
* The display makes it easy to see all of the settings.
* Clicking on the selected button enters stomp mode where you can turn on/off two effects. Those effects are listed on the display so you know what you are controlling.
* The expression pedal can switch between two actions (switch off for volume, switch on for wah, vibrato, or whatever effect you have assigned - you can set both on and off effects).
* Balanced XRL and unbalanced TRS outputs.
* Separate volume controls for XRL, TRS, and headphones!
* Hold the active button down to switch to the tuner, which is very easy to read.
* Settings to adjust the input levels.
* Cab modes can be enabled/disabled per output option.
* Easy to change the chain order.
* Five dials to adjust effect controls.
* Mobile and desktop apps to control the device (mobile apps via Bluetooth as well!)!
* Ability to add 50 IRs.

The only quirk I had to get used to was the touch buttons. The screen isn't a touchscreen, but the mod category buttons are. You have to be aware of where they are when using the dials. If you finger rubs the screen, you can end up either changing to a different effect, or turning one on/off. The input port is closer to the right side of the unit, which is definitely not like most pedals, but not really an issue.

The only thing I wish they did was make a bass model, or had an option for bass effects via firmware. I keep looking for a similar bass version, and there are very few in this budget category. The controls are so easy to use for guitar. I have a separate pedal for bass effects - it's just not as intuitive as the Arena 2000. If they ever came out with a bass model, I'll be adding that as well!

5.0 out of 5 stars A great affordable studio and practice unit not to be ignored!
Reviewed in Canada on October 12, 2023
I have had this unit for a few months now and although I originally did not give it a very favourable review, I think that I was expecting too much from it solely a stage unit. Yes, you can use this live and get 3 different sounds out of the unit for each song without bending down to change banks, so in theory this is an OK multi-effects unit live.

But where it shines is in the practice room or home studio. At this price point the Arena 2000 has tons of flexibility in terms of modifying the presets to your liking, including changing amp heads, cabs plus lots of choices in delays, mods, reverbs, drive, etc... Spend some time tweaking the knobs and you have a very respectable multi-effects unit giving you some serious tone.

I have used it on a few recordings now and the signal into my DAW is clean and strong with no noise.

The built-in drum sampler and looper also make this a terrific little practice unit and the drum samples are pretty decent at this price point.

Bottom line - this is not to be compared with a Line 6 or a Fractal, but it is 1/4 of the price! And it is also 1/4 of the size making it easy to slip into your gig bag and bring it along to practices or jam nights.

Donner. Das ist kein Boss oder Helix, aber für den Preis?? Top verarbeitet, klasse Anbindung per Bluetooth an Handy oder Tab, und somit komfortable Bedienung um Sounds zu sortieren oder erstellen. Genügend FX und Cabins. Da ist der Preis unschlagbar für viele klasse Sounds. Alle Sterne.
