Product Information

At BOSS Tone Central, you’ll find a wide selection of free patch collections for the GT-1B.

The free BOSS Tone Studio software provides a full-featured editor/librarian for the GT-1B, as well as integrated access to all the patch collections at BOSS Tone Central. Pro Control in a Compact Space The interface alone is very intuitive and easy to understand, works like a pedalboard FX chain and you can choose and setup every segment of the chain individually. The effects are outstanding and beyond all expectatioins, but once you step into the amps models and drive pedals thats when you really drop your jaw! Third Party Software. “Third Party Software” is software, including open source software, that is contained in or provided with the Software and is licensed by a third party under its own terms of use (“Third Party Terms”). Third Party Software is governed solely by the applicable Third Party Terms and not by this EULA. Third Party Terms may be provided with the Third Party Software. One of the most appealing things about this pedal is that many of the built-in FX are actually models of famous Boss pedals. So for the price of 3-4 individual stomp boxes, you can have a full arsenal of Boss effects. The sound quality of the FX was quite something. We compared a couple of the built-in FX to their standalone pedal counterparts, including the “Blues OD” (Blues Driver), “Boss” (CS-3 Compressor), and “Rat” (Proco Rat). By and large, we could hear no noticeable difference.

You can figure out how to operate the unit without reading through the instructions. It’s that intuitive. New types of patches switching buttons with lighting. CTL1 button can be used to switch on/off stompboxes meaning you kinda have two patches in one.

There’s a small LCD screen which shows you exactly which settings are active at any given time. The screen is very basic and honestly not much improved from the types of screen found in early Zoom Multi-FX units. But we can appreciate this is one of the areas that’s allowed Boss to keep costs down.

The GT-1 is built like a tank, making it the ideal travel partner for gigs. It should slip conveniently into your travel bag. It's either battery or mains powered so you can plug in or take advantage of up to 7 hours of battery life on 4AA batteries. This guitar pedal is really easy to use straight out of the box so even if you're a bit of a technophobe, you'll find yourself fully immersed in the GT-1 for hours on end. Having said that, its loaded with state of the art technology for more technical applications. The GT-1 has 3 rotary dials, an array of 10 soft-touch rubberized buttons, and 3 stomp buttons. The rubberized buttons effectively work as your signal chain. Starting from left to right, it begins with an FX/Compressor selector button, then Overdrive-type FX, and finally the preamp selector, which allows you to select from a number of famous models. The next button covers your modulation FX, then there’s a button for delay FX and one for reverb. This layout is very logical, putting the FX that need the cleanest signal at the start of the chain. Thanks to its Premium BOSSsound engine, the GT-1 provides tone quality and sound-shaping ability that far exceeds typical compact multi-effects. A history of BOSS processing is at your fingers, from classics such as the OD-1 Overdrive to modern effects powered by innovative MDP technology. There’s a huge selection of COSM amp tones on tap too, including vintage legends and BOSS original amps optimized for ideal tone and response. Specialized effects like Acoustic Simulator, Guitar Simulator, and others provide numerous tonal options, and there’s even a looper to enhance your practice sessions and stage performances. Portable Tone Partner Evaluation Software.
