This mini powerhouse features 24 simultaneous effects blocks, over 140 unique amp and effect types, and advanced AIRD technology that provides authentic tube amp feel across any setup. With 250 user patches and class-leading sound quality through 32-bit processing at 96 kHz sampling, the GT-1000CORE offers unlimited creative expression for both guitar and bass players. Built for maximum versatility, the GT-1000CORE integrates seamlessly into any pedalboard or works as a standalone processor for live and studio applications. Toggle between Memory and Manual modes, utilise dual send/return loops for external effects or four-cable method setups, and connect external footswitches and expression pedals for expanded control. The unit includes MIDI I/O on space-saving TRS jacks, allowing it to control or be controlled by other MIDI devices in your rig. BOSS's breakthrough AIRD technology sets the GT-1000CORE apart, providing consistent response across different scenarios with minimal adjustments required. The comprehensive selection includes BOSS original amps, vintage tube combos, modern high-gain heads, plus classic BOSS effects, retro stompboxes, and algorithms from the acclaimed 500 series pedals.
