Video

Thanks. That was pretty useful! I was about to throw the GT-1 out the window. This video has saved the pedal board. A great tone and a great playing. Best regards from Spain.

Hi Gary, are you from Mira Mesa?

Dude! This is the best tone so far in my GT - 1! I'd love to see you creating a solo/lead/high gain preset! Thank you!

Love it. I have a Katana MK2 for when I need an amp and a GT1 for if I'm going into a PA, and it's fab. Great video

Brilliant video, I now have a stomp box setup and it definitely seems a more intuitive way to use the GT-1 than the normal way i.e. having two switches set to bank increase/decrease. I wonder though, how do you get the GT-1 to sound good without enabling any effects? I use a Roland JC-22 with a vintage Tiesco Audition amp via FX Loop Out/Instrument In and I want to use that combo as my clean tone as it's superb as it is, but no matter how I try to preserve it, it just doesn't sound as good when going through through the GT-1 as it does when going straight into the front of my JC-22. Fwiw, the Audition is an old amp that was made between 1970-73 and voiced to the amp sounds of the day, probably why it sounds so good. You can see it here in this video by Dave Simpson: czcams.com/video/UInkjbRKKR8/video.html I hope this makes sense. The wee Audition amp, which I picked up in a charity shop here in Glasgow, has transformed my guitar playing experience completely and now, as a two-amp combo, none of the clean tones on the GT-1 sounds anywhere near as good. But the problem is, I would like to use my GT-1 to add a bit of OD and delay, depending on what I'm playing without decimating the JC-22+Audition combo.. I'd really appreciate your help on this, cheers, DJ EDIT: I guess I also mean using effects as well. Anything that will preserve the combined sound of my two-amp combo.

I bought a Boss RC-600 a few weeks ago and I'm still trying to figure it out. That said, the one feature I wrongly assumed it had was the ability to sequence tracks so that you could programme a sequence and then viola, you'd have a song cued up, with all the different parts lined up to play automatically in the right order. Boss might well add this feature in a future update but as it is, it doesn't have the main feature I wanted it to have. I should have done my research! Anyway, thanks for the Boss GT-1 vids, they've been great:) DJ

😂😂 aww G only you mate 😂. Also maybe don't sit at the speaker 😂. #originalsalways (Genuinefface btw) 😂

so if you gig with the gt1 do bring an amp or run straight to a mixing board? which amp do your run with it?

A lot of these can be done WAYYY easier with the Boss Tone Studio on your PC. Saves a lot of time too.

I love my Boss GT 1 but I have soooo much to learn still about it! Thanks!!

Right now my it says my pedel is off how do I turn it on

Love it . If that’s semi pissed , makes my guitar playing pretty lame lol 🎸🎼🍺

Had mine for four years. Still finding great sounds after much knob twiddling. I have spent many thousands on gear over the years, but this little cracker is all you will need . I use it in front of a boss katana 100 and is a perfect match plus one trip from the car to the stage. Brilliant !

Great video. Thank you!

I got mine in 2018 & can’t believe how great it is. I use it to record with 99% of the time & my tone-snob friends all think I’m miking my amps. I’d buy it again.

VERY HELPFUL

I cant figure out how to change patches from external footswitch. How did you do that?

Does setting it up like this affect the controls for looping?

I've been using my GT1 for over a year now and I keep finding amazing (useable) new sounds. Personally, I find life easier when I edit it using Tone Studio, although it's certainly a good idea to know your way around the actual unit for live settings if thing go pear-shaped.

I've had a bunch of these different modelers. The GT -1 punches WAY above its weight. I have HX stuff, never had Fractal or Kemper though. GT-1 is a great unit especially for the price point. Small and fits in a gig bag, can run on batteries, it's hard to go wrong. And a lot of features Boss has had for years that many don't know like Acoustic simulation, Hum to single imitation, Single to Hum imitation, it's pretty crazy. No hate from me.

Gary - thanks a million, your videos are the most useful and helpful I've found. I bought the GT-1 several years ago, couldn't make it do what I wanted, and put it aside and let it gather dust. Now, with your help, it has replaced my pedalboard - smaller, lighter, simpler, more options. Well done.

Dude wields it like a Light Saber, and totally appropriate for this tool. 🤙

I just gave myself my 600th like on this video to give it a nice round number. What a douche 😂 Keep the Qs coming folks. I'll answer any and all non-douchey comments when i can 👍

Received my GT-1 - what an awesome device. Very similar to my GP-10 (without the synth of course) The footswitch mode described here by Gary works a treat. Only thing to note is there does not appear to be a way to use the Assign feature on the up/down pedals. This is a shame, as on the GP-10 I could assign multiple things to one footswitch. E.g. Overdrive + Delay. On the GT-1 The Up/Down pedals can be assigned to just a single function - e.g. Overdrive only, with no other Assigns (unless I'm missing something). Shame. It still works for me. I’m happy. But thought I’d mention it.

Hello Gary, thanks for the video! Do you think this is possible with a Moore ge 150?

ok, I have added all the functionality here. Thanks bro. Is there an easy way to match the outputs per patch, so that there is not a drastic volume boost/loss in the patches during the changes, that I am using, currently 5 patches.

I have the GT-1. Mine doesn’t sound like that!😮l😂 Are you running that through your tube amp? Fantastic job!

I think these devices are so capable of sculpting 'personalised' tone, they are in their own right as good as a customised amp or boutique rig, theres no shortage of available obviously tweaked tones being demoed for sale only, I'm not much of a fan of the concept personally, but if there was some way I could freely avail my tones I might be interested in doing so, I think the newer capture units might be able to capture my tones and rig as I hear it slaying in any room or venue etc. I'm not willing to avail my actual tweaks per say but it might be fun to freely share perhaps my end results for them to also enjoy.

Good Morning again. Thanks for your replies to my crazy ideas. I have another q for you. I love my Gt1. I use a program called stagetraxx 3 for my backing tracks, and guitar on stage. My next project is to understand how to control the gt1 using stagetraxx 3 and I know thats a different thing, but I wanted to see if it can be controlled via midi for this purpose. So im hearing I can have stagetraxx 3 change soundbanks without using a foot controller. It would be so cool if it could just change the patches, like from clean to distortion, without having to stomp on switches all the time. Think I can do that with the gt1?

I swore off anything digital for 20 years after the 505. I held on to my busted old green russian Big Muff like my life depended on it because of that dogshit Zoom pedal. Everyone tells me "just get a Quad Cortex, dude" or "did you lose your helix or something?" But I'd rather have 1 modest multi-effects pedal and save the rest of my money for individual pedals.

Thanks for the video… explain a lot.. 🙏🙏

Sorry if you've already answered this, but can I use the effects already on the unit in stomp box mode? Example: would I be able to put Metal Dragon on the down button and Natural Clean on the up?

how do you "just plug it in" without an amp, considering there is no built-in DI box?

No Wigs Allowed

I think as well if you go into the boss tone studio software while its connected to your pc and set the preferences for the buttons to 'system' instead of 'patch' then the buttons will always work as you've mapped them & you wont have to copy the patches, but i can see the benefit of copying them as well.

Thanks! That was pretty useful!

Amazingly helpful, thanks very much Garry.

I still use my GT-1 every time I play. AND it is dirt cheap so if a drunk pukes/spills bear on it, I can get another cheap. It also has stupid low latency for use with S-Gear on my computer. Thanks for the videos Sir and Best Regards and Best Wishes!

Is there an English translation for Americans? Op obviously doesn’t respond to his own channel.

This is bloody hilarious, your Chanel needs more popularity!

Great job. Thank you!

Great video, thank you! Was wondering, for the 3 big buttons, any way to have them go to the built in guitar effects? Like button Down="Natural Clean", button Up="Royal Lead", etc? (dedicating the buttons so I am not scrolling).

Great crunch and dirt. Filthy \m/

That sounds great. What model tele?

Excellent. Thank you Gary. Exactly what I was looking for. ❤️☮️

Best tutorial i've found yet. You really gave me the most useful tips

Thank you very much sir. So helpful maximizing my gt1. From Philippines🇵🇭. 🤟

Thank you so much for sharing really appreciate getting to know more about this amazing device We all know and love as the GT - 1

I found you through your GT1 videos! I'm digging this! Was this recorded with the GT1?
