Zoom adds DynaDelay effect to G5n through Guitar Lab

April 1, 2026 · 6 sources

Zoom listed DynaDelay as an April 2026 addition to the G5n in the Guitar Lab download schedule on the processor's product page¹. The same schedule lists OverDrive as added in December 2025 and BitCrush as added in February 2026¹. The page describes the three as "3 additional effects" delivered through Guitar Lab¹.

The maker gives no description of DynaDelay's sound or controls on the G5n page, and no price for the effect¹. Guitar Lab is the Mac/Windows software through which G5n owners download effects, amp and cabinet models and patches; Zoom says users plug the G5n into an internet-connected computer, power it on and open the software to download new items¹.

The G5n is a floor multi-effects processor. Zoom's Japan page states 127 DSP effects and 32 amp/cabinet emulators, 124 custom-designed patches, storage for up to 200 user patches, four stompbox-style footswitches, an expression pedal, a dedicated tap tempo footswitch and an output booster¹. It also lists 68 rhythm patterns, a two-unit looper for phrases up to 80 seconds, a chromatic tuner, an auxiliary stereo input, a headphone jack and dual outputs for mono or stereo connection¹. Zoom says firmware V2.0 lets the unit chain up to nine effects in any order¹.

The G5n pages carry different figures by region. The Japan page gives 127 effects and 32 amp/cabinet emulators¹; the Canada and UK pages give 100 effects and 26 emulators, with 13 amp models and 13 cabinet emulators²³. All three pages list the same April 2026 DynaDelay addition¹²³.

The same April 2026 DynaDelay entry appears in the Guitar Lab schedule on Zoom's pages for other products: the B3n bass processor, which lists BitCrush in February 2026 and DynaDelay in April 2026⁴; the G1 Four and G1X Four, which list OverDrive, BitCrush and DynaDelay on the same dates⁵; and the G6, which carries the identical three-entry list⁶.
