More Onboard Speaker IRs for Recording—The speaker IR selection in Recording mode has been greatly expanded with the ability to use “Original” speaker types from different amplifiers. Nineteen newly added bass effects, including an MDP compressor, overdrives and distortions, touch wah, flanger, and more This premium-grade tone machine showcases the brand new A.I.R.D (Augmented Impulse Response Dynamics) Technology with some style, and features an ultra-fast DSP engine, 32-bit AD/DA, 32-bit Processing power and a pristing 96 kHz sampling rate, all of which is unmatched by anything else on the market. Boss GT-1000 Highlights

With the Boss GT-1000, boss have taken all that they've learned over the years a, nd incorporated all of the acclaimed sounds from the company's stompbox effects history, in addition to harnessing tones from the "500" series of Delay, Modulation and Reverb pedals, as well as the ground-breaking MDP technology to offer the kind of dynamic response not available with any other unit. The New Bass Multi-Effects Flagship I also felt it necessary to add some fairly basic setup notes here as those are not adequately contained with the Boss Reference Manuals - which are mostly rather long shopping lists of Parameters - there are though some really useful GT-1000 guides out there which give you a decent picture of the inner workings, while not quite providing total equivalency. At its core, the GT-1000 harnesses BOSS’s breakthrough AIRD technology for previously unattained musical power. Based on the comprehensive Tube Logic concept behind the renowned Katana, Waza, Nextone, and Blues Cube amplifiers, AIRD takes the amp processor to a new level of performance, flexibility, and practical usability.The auto-engage functionality that we just setup on the GT-1000 above relies on a very precise range of movement to activate/deactivate the effect. As with any mechanical system interfacing with software control, it’s good practice to occasionally calibrate the expression pedal to ensure that it is delivering the right inputs to the unit. Deep editing is intuitive enough once you get your head around the patches setup, but the free Boss Tone Studio will really turn you loose on those edits. You'll soon get the hang of it and start compiling sounds that can be easily recalled.

With such a great variety of Boss effects, the GT-1000Core is a shoo-in if you’re looking to expand the capability of an existing pedalboard, but also a great starting point to build a ’board around, making use of those practical send/return loops.A brand new mode - aptly titled Stompbox - allows you to save your settings from individual effects or amp bloxks, and later recall them into any other preset, meaning you'll never have to remember just what settings you used previously. Boss GT-1000 Guitar Effects Processor Tech Specs It feels like every guitar product on the market right now comes with the ability to connect to a device via Bluetooth, but trust us, this time it's actually useful. The Boss Tone Studio app is available for iOS and Android mobile devices and allows you to edit patches, tweak effects and even build your own presets wirelessly, saving you a bunch of time. Input Setting added, allowing you to save 10 types of Input Level values to match your connected guitar - available on individual patches You can send MIDI commands in two ways — on a patch basis (i.e. whenever you change to a new patch, a set of MIDI commands will be sent out) or using Assigns to send out MIDI commands when you stomp on a footswitch.

SEND2: 10 k ohms or greater Controls DOWN switch, UP switch CTL1--3 switches, 1--5 switches, POWER switch The Version 2 update added the sounds of what we consider to be three of the most prized delay machines in history — Space Echo (models the Roland RE-201), Tape Echo PX (models the Maestro Echoplex), and Bin Drum Echo (models the Binson Echorec2). The GT-1000 features a wide range of BOSS original amplifiers suitable for all guitar styles, from super-clean to ultra-heavy. A number of amp types employ Multi-Dimensional Processing (MDP) technology for dynamic, nuanced tone that reaches beyond the capabilities of analog designs. Classic tube amps throughout history are included as well, from coveted vintage combos to modern high-gain heads. Two amps can be used at once in a single patch, so you’re able to switch between two sounds, blend amps for complex tones, or achieve big, expansive sound in stereo setups. Optimized Performance for Every Playing ApplicationI feel that the pedal should have a proper 'Stompbox Mode' option which disables all the AIRD Preamp assignments in one move. Modern computers and smartphones have superb configuration / setup screens / onscreen guides - which take you though the process of setting the device up exactly to your specific requirements. If you’re struggling to figure out how to turn on delay subdivisions so you can sync all your time-based effects using tap tempo control, don’t worry. All you need to do is keep turning the Time parameter all the way to the maximum millisecond value, and once you’ve maxed it out, subdivision notes will appear. How to set BPM tap tempo It can function wonderfully in a standalone capacity, too, and has that amp/effects/speaker sim in one box ‘fly rig’ capability, fitting easily into your guitar case if you’re travelling light. Even though this is a somewhat 'On-Rails' device - its scope is second to none - and particularly at this size / format. I feel that this is very much a V1 style interface and we will see much improvement over the coming months and years. Starting with the pioneering GT-5 unit in 1996, the GT series of multi-effects processors has had a long history of putting a wide variety of amp tones and effects at your feet in a compact, giggable form factor. Now, we’re proud to bring you our best-sounding and most premium, pro-level GT unit yet — the GT-1000.
