Description
The all-new Boss GM-800 is the ultimate synthesizer pedal for guitarists, bassists, and musicians looking to take their sound to the next level. Driven by the Roland Serial GK interface and an ultra-advanced Zen-Core sound engine, this premium pedal boasts an incredible library of tones and effects. Plus, its external control jacks, USB connectors, and MIDI ins/outs allow it to connect seamlessly to any rig. If you've been searching for a top-notch pedal that'll help you push past your creative limits, look no further than the Boss GM-800.
With the GM-800, nearly any sound can be created, thanks to its Zen-Core sound engine. This powerful system is the same one behind the legendary Roland Jupiter-X and Fantom synthesizers, and it allows users to select from over 1,200 onboard sounds. From orchestral instruments to electric piano effects, organ emulators, and classic patches from the Jupiter and JUNO, the GM-800 offers a wealth of stunning sounds that can transform your guitar signal entirely.
For more traditional tones, the GM-800 serves as a fantastic multi-effects pedal. With multiple reverbs, delays, distortion, modulation effects, and more, musicians can use this pedal as a stand-in for their standard pedalboard. It even includes a master compression and EQ setting that lets players sculpt their sound at the master output.
The Boss GM-800 also gives players access to four Tone parts and a Rythm part, allowing users to tweak, recall, and edit four separate patches at once using the top-panel buttons. The Rhythm part is loaded with 70+ incredible-sounding acoustic and electronic percussion sounds, opening up an entirely new sonic dimension to explore.
What's more, the GM-800's workflow is based on Scenes. These snapshots let players adjust every element of their sound, from tone selection to effects and more. There are 150 Scenes onboard, 100 of which come pre-programmed with studio-grade sounds. If you need more tones to play with, don't worry - the GM-800 is compatible with Roland Cloud, so you can download Scenes from the extensive Zen-Core Sound Pack library.
To top it all off, the GM-800 features a high-speed processor dedicated exclusively to tracking, a must-have for players who want lock-tight performance. Seriously, this synth pedal is unlike anything designed before.
Offering the best synthesizer sounds in an advanced pedal format, the Boss GM-800 is truly in a league of its own. Reach out today to get your hands on this phenomenal synth pedal!
