GT8 BOSS new Guitar Effects Pedal Floorbaord Processor

Double your power with BOSS’s new GT-8 floor-based mega processor. Loaded with twin COSM modeling engines, this top-of-the-line processor brings unprecedented performance and tonal control to the stage and studio. Boasting the latest COSM amp models, the GT-8 opens new sonic dimensions by allowing players to layer and manipulate two amp models simultaneously during performance. The Dynamic mode enables two channels to be controlled based on picking strength — transition smoothly from clean to mean by simply picking harder or softer.

BOSS’s most powerful floor-based processor!
Dual COSM Amp engine allows two different amp types to be assigned to the two channels
Amp channels can be switched, layered, or panned in real-time; Dynamic mode allows channel switching by picking dynamics
200 stunning preset patches and 140 user patches; 44 effects categories, up to 13 simultaneous FX blocks
User configurable effect chain; any effect can be in any order in the signal path; independent External Effects loop section for inserting external effects anywhere in the signal patch
Solo Switch on the COSM amp section for instant lead tone
Amp Control jack for switching external guitar amp channels
24-bit converters and coaxial digital output for high-resolution recording applications

Step into the spotlight with the GT-8’s new Solo Switch feature; each of the 46 COSM amp models contains a specially programmed variation that’s optimized for soloing. Simply click the Solo switch to activate the lead tone, and off you go — it’s like having a separate solo channel on every COSM amp.

Forty-four effects categories are built into the GT-8. Up to 13 effects blocks can be used simultaneously to create complex textures and routings. All FX bases are covered — compressors, reverbs, choruses, EQs, COSM -modeled wahs, and much more. There are 200 preset patches built in, plus 140 user patches for storing custom amp/effects creations. As a special bonus, there’s a selection of synth waves onboard, including sitar, plus acoustic simulators and an acoustic processor.

Another area where the GT-8 stomps the competition is in its powerful effects routing. Internally, the 13 effects blocks can be configured in any order desired. Furthermore, external processors can be integrated via the Ext Loop send and return. Flexibility in routing is the name of the game.

The GT-8 is stocked with enough I/O options to satisfy even the most demanding pro. In addition to its stereo analog outs, it offers a 24-bit coaxial output for ultra-clean digital transfer, an Amp Control jack for switching between two amp channels on an external amp, an external expression/control pedal jack, effects send and returns, MIDI in and out, and a headphone output.
