BOSS GT-1000
BOSS GT-1000 is the first-ever guitar multi-effects processor with 32-bit AD/DA and 32-bit/96 kHz internal processing. The pedal is driven by Boss’s latest custom DSP engine and includes a wide range of amplifier types, newly built with the comprehensive Tube Logic design approach behind the acclaimed Katana, Waza, and Blues Cube amplifiers.
Also featured is the company’s new Augmented Impulse Response Dynamics (AIRD) technology, realized with BOSS’s extensive research into the complex component interactions in classic guitar amplifiers.
Inside the BOSS GT-1000 there’s a broad range of world-class effects, with Boss’s Multi-Dimensional Processing (MDP) on board along with advanced modulation, delay, and reverb algorithms from the popular MD-, RV- and DD-500 pedals. Users can configure amps and effects with numerous routing options and enjoy mute-free patch switching and delay/reverb carryover, claim Boss, thanks to the ultra-speedy DSP engine.
