Description

Boss GT Pro Rack unit

The Boss GT-Pro Effects Processor is an incredibly powerful rack processor. It boasts dual COSM processor effect engines and an I/O section that includes XLR outs, three sets of send/returns, and a USB port for data exchange and audio flow.

Its dual COSM amp-modeling engine allows you to construct towering tones by combining any two of the 46 amp models then layer, switch, or pan between them as you play. Amp channels and effects can even be controlled according to how hard you play. The Solo switch gives you instant access to a companion lead tone.

As the top of GT line, the GT-Pro provides 44 effects categories with 200 preset- and 140 user-patch locations. Choose from compressors, overdrives, delays, reverbs, choruses, EQs, wahs, and dozens of other BOSS-quality effects including a sitar and acoustic guitar emulator.

The GT-Pro also has ultraflexible effects routing. Internally, the 13 effects blocks can be configured in any order you desire; externally, a trio of stereo effects loops plus an array of assignable outputs enable the most flexible signal-routing configurations.

Given its price — and its high technical specification — the GT Pro may appear a little daunting to the amp/speaker modelling newcomer and they may prefer to check out the lower-priced, floor-mounted Boss GT8, alongside competing products from the likes of Zoom and Line 6.

 

However, the GT Pro is capable of producing almost any guitar tone you care to think of — plus a whole lot more besides — and I can certainly see it appealing to professional and semi-professional gigging/studio guitarists who need a wide sonic palette for their work. 

 

A good number of the presets are aimed at various styles of rock, but there are some nice clean and special effects patches too. However, as with all units of this type, it's always worth digging beneath the effects and listening to the basic amp and speaker modelling. The GT Pro has nothing to hide here, as it is very capable of producing a wide range of basic guitar-amp sounds without the fairy dust provided by the effects.

 

From glassy, clean tones through to absolutely saturated hi-gain, pretty much everything is provided, and mixing and matching between the various amp models and the different speaker-cabinet types produces even greater variety.
