- 🎸 How to switch from Clean to Overdrive or Distortion using Boss GT-1 🎸
Here's a Boss GT-1 Tutorial on How To Go From Clean To Distortion.
In this video about the Boss GT-1 Multi Effects Processor from @BOSSinfoglobal & @rolandglobal, I'll explain and show how to switch from a clean sound/tone and over to an overdriven/distorted tone. Being able to do that will allow you to have several tones, all within ONE single patch.

Why would anyone disliked this? I don't have the GT1 but watching your video, now I'm tempted to buy one.
You're the man, Jake's Media! :-)
Thank you very much for your kind words!
It's not bad being able to put such impact across in my video - yay!
You should really get one, it's a great piece of gear and the tones are right on the spot!
Thanks again, Jake!
Have a great weekend & cheers :-)
Jake MiXd I got one after watching all his videos and I am enjoying this pedal beyond belief.
why? the device is not the problem. the problem is this:
"I got a new cool device for guitar-recording" ====> NORMAL
HE ===> "yeh.... ehhhhhh....mmmh....i got...ehhhhhhhmmm. yeah.... a new... ehhhm..... ehhhhm ...yeah coool eeeeehm.... device......yeah... ehhhhhhm for.... eeeeeehmmm.... guitar... eeeeeeeeeeehm eeeeeeeeehm... yeah...eeeeeeeeeeehm....mmmmmmmmmmmeeehh.... eeeeeeeeeehmmm.... recor.... EEEEEEEH!!!! EEEEEHH!!! CORDING"
No offensive... sorry but this is horrible to watch and have to stop... that makes me angry cause i would like to know more about my own device.. -__-"
nofi4, I really don't see the need for your tone in this case... I'm doing these videos because they help out people and because I enjoy it.
If you feel that my videos are not helping, then send me an email, perhaps I can be of better assistance there..
nofi4 if you want to know more about your device read the fucken manual if your not happy with someone who takes his own time to help us
I just bought the GT-1 and before I did I watched a few of your videos. I am thinking this old school single pedal guy may have finally found a muklti-effects I can understand. Thank you for your awesome videos. I noticed on your TH-cam page DOZENS of tutorials for this device... wow. That is partly what sold me on this unit. -- Usually when I go to TH-cam about some device, its a REVIEW DEMO, not a tutorial. They go quick thru "this pedal does this, and this pedal does that" and never slow down and show you HOW. -- You've really made my day. I am 60 years old and have been playinf guiutar for over 40 years and I'm just not from the tech-pedal generation. Plus, I hate reading, of the 4 types pof learning humans do (text reading, demnonstration, lecture, etc) watching someone do it is the way I learn. I can't learn by sitting down with a "War and Peace" sized manual... forget it... I'll be sleeping in 3 minutes. Exactly why you'll probably never see me plugged in to a Line 6 anything. I wasn't born in a generation where the baby pops out of the womb with a cell phone attached to their head... We had rotary phone, then push button phones came along and it was the biggest thing since sliced bread. I was born in 1962... so I was 22 years old when they produced the first Apple home computer in 1984... And at about $5,000 in 1984 dollars or so, I couldn't possibly afford one. -- You have given me some of the best TUTORIALS I have ever seen on any device. God bless you for your efforts of all these excellent GT-1 tutorials. I've yet to see any multi effect with so many... Have a great day, you deserve it.
Hi there, James.
I'm very sorry for the late reply, I've been behind on answering comments...
Thank you for your comment and kind words, they are greatly appreciated!
I'm so happy to hear your story, and you made a great choice of going with the GT-1.
You're right, there are many reviews for this unit out on TH-cam... I skipped that part, and went straight for the tutorials, as I figured that's what people needed.
I agree, it's always better to see how people do, for example through a video, and then try it out yourself.
I hear you, too much tech right from the birth... it hasn't really done us any good, if we think about our younger generations...
James, thank you, your kind words mean the world to me! You've just made my day, today!
God bless you too and stay safe!
Best regards!
After buying my GT-1 over a year ago, I'm back. My initial reaction was one of cranial overload and confusion.
I've spent the past year learning what pedals actual do, buying a few, and getting my skill levels up.
Hauling my GT-1 out of the box, this now makes sense. I'm so glad I saved your videos to a directory.
I'm also so glad I didn't sell the GT-1 and buy too many pedals as I had no real idea at the time of the power of this little unit
Excellent, Damien! I'm really pleased to hear that!
Indeed, the GT-1 can be overwhelming at first, but once you understand it, you won't be able to part with it!
All the best.
Cheers.
At last... I have a mfx pedal I can edit and use..... and I don't have to be Einstein to do it! And these tutes made it even easier. Thankyou very much!
Thank you, I greatly appreciate your kind words!
Please do let me know if you need anything else.
Best regards.
I want to express my thanks for making these videos. I just got a GT-1 and your videos have helped me quickly learn everything I needed to know to have great fun with this unit. I think I have watched every one of our videos, some of them three or four times. Every time I watch one, I learn another helpful tip. Thanks again!
Thanks again, Base!
I'm really glad to hear that, and it makes my videos even more useful for others out there!
Keep enjoying it, and let me know if you need anything else.
Best regards.
Cheers.
Thank you for a very informative and easy to follow video. I am a 69 year old guitarist (playing since the age of 15) and I have been looking for a replacement for my rack-mounted old PodPro, and your video has finally convinced me to go with the Boss GT 1. I already have a Boss RC 3 loop station which I love, so I am already a believer in Boss products.
Thanks again and I am subscribing to your channel right now!
Hey there, @Jim in Cornwall! 😊
Very nice to hear from you, and thank you for the kind words! I truly appreciate it!
Wow, that is excellent, Jim! That makes me really happy! You see, that is the impact I want my videos to have on the viewers!
I'm sure you're gonna love the GT-1! It's a true beast, and the effects and tones are great!
Hehe, Boss makes great products, that's for sure!
I've been through all the different Boss multi effects - right from the rack-mounted GT-PRO, GT-10, GT-100 and now the GT-1!
Boss all the way, no doubt!
Thanks for subscribing, Jim! I appreciate it!
You let me know if you need any help or have further questions!
I'd be happy to help you out!
Have an excellent day!
Cheers.
I need to see you play
IM SO SO SO SO GLAD I FOUND YOUR CHANNEL!!! THANKS A TON DUDE!❤️
I spent more than three hours of my life trying to set clean 2 dist and for me it was so hard to do it. After watching your video my life got so easier! Thank you so much for helping me.
Hey Robson Almeida :-)

Hey GNT, just picked up a GT1 and used this vid to set up my first user patch ... super simple instruction and my new patch sounds great. Many thanks for your help. Keep on Rockin' 🤘🏻
Heey there, Harry 😊
Thank you for your comment and kind words - it's much appreciated!
I'm glad you got it all worked out, and that your patch is sounding great!

Have an excellent day.
Great job, as always! Appreciate you doing these videos
Thanks, Chris! :-) It means a lot to me!
You're welcome - I'll have new videos out soon!
Stay tuned :-)
This video is excellent , the ability to assign functions to the CTL pedal and external CTL pedals makes it really adaptable . I think the pre amp sounds are very good from what I have heard on youtube demos, and have seen people play live gigs on here with them . I am definitely replacing my me 70 with one in the very very near future. Thank you for your video
Hey again, The Atomic Punk :-)
Thanks for your comment!
The assigns, and the possibilities they offer, are why I've been using Boss multi effects for years!
I haven't, yet, found anything that comes close!
Having the CTL1 onboard, and the option to add the FS-7, just gives that extra to it all!
Easy to program and easy to navigate through, epsecially on stage!
Also, the FS-7 won't run out of battery, like the old FS-6 would, hehe.
The preamps and cabinets are great, really! I use the GT-1 live, through the PA, and the sound is great!
I've been giggin' live with the GT-1 ever since I got it, back when it first came out! I've never looked back ;-)
Good choice, I think you'll be very happy with that decision.
You're more than welcome - any time!
Have a great day :-)
Thank you, as a beginner, I decided to bough my GT 1 because of your video tutorial, thank you again!
Brilliant! Thanks for this didn't know you could do more than one assign at a time so this has been really useful.
Excellent, Ian! Enjoy, and please let me know if you need anything else!
All the best.
Good though job done!!!thanks , u have made me remember how well the boss got series are as far as internal switching and program changes, it takes some time spent learning but powerful once u attain the knowledge
Hi Tony :-)
Thanks, I truly appreciate that!
Yes, I've always used the GT series multi effects, simply because of their great assign and control options!
They can do whatever you need them too!
Yes, it is required that you spend a little time getting to know the different features, but once you've got it, it doesn't take long to set it up :-)
Enjoy & Cheers! :-)
This is the best GT1 tutorial ever! Thank you so much.
Thanks, Victor Law - that's very, very kind of you!
I'm pleased to hear that and I truly appreciate it.

This is definitely what I'm looking for as I've just bought a GT-1 and need to know how to quickly switch from clean to distortion as many songs require this function. Thanks for sharing.

Just bought one today and played with it. it has many preset sounds without all this programming. Also you can simply edit any of the sounds with easy edit much simpler to get started.
Hey there, Joe!
Man, that's great to hear - hope you're happy with it!
Yes, the GT-1 comes with a lot of presets, and some of them are alright, but the top of it all is to create your own - that's where the shine really is :-)
Yes, the easy edit is great too, and you can easily dial in a quick patch using it :-)
Let me know if you need anything, Joe!
Have a great day
Cheers.
Thank you very much. I have this processor, but i did not know how could i switch few effects simultaniously, for example delay and chorus. Thanks again!
Thank you, I appreciate it, and I'm glad the video helped you!
It's great being able to switch several effects, and it opens up a lot of possibilities 😊
Have an excellent day.

Hey you create great videos on the gt1, I was curious about the speaker type settings what is the origin is that the default spkr of the preamp
Hey there what speaker or amp is connected to your gt1? I have a bugera v5 amp which has not 2 channel switch. I have to turn on the gain level for volume but it seems that increases the buzz. Do i have to simply use more noise gate? And in there i have to rise the threshold? Nice video.
Hey there!
Thank you for your comment and question.
In this video I have the GT-1 connected to my laptop, via USB, for recording. Normally I run the GT-1 through studio monitors, headphones or a PA/Mixer. I use the GT-1 for its effects and preamps/cabinets - so I have no external amplifier with me. All the sounds are coming from the GT-1.
Well, the noise gotta come from somewhere, right.. Whether it's due to poor shielding of your guitar and its pickups, or due to too much gain, and uncontrolled volume and gain-stages...
I can see that the Bugera V5 amp has both a Volume and Gain knob, but does the volume only work when the gain is turned up? Or does the volume work with the gain knob all the way off?
Veryyy helpfulll !!!!! I'll buy Gt 1 tomorrow
Cheers and thank you, tata!
I appreciate it, and I'm happy to hear that you're getting your own Boss GT-1!
You're gonna love it, I'm sure!
Let me know if you need anything - I'd be happy to assist.

@@GuitarNTabs I am following your tutorials and playing with my GT-1 EVERY DAY recently. I may need a few months to digest all the stuff you already have here. Just wanna thank you again for these generous contributions.

That's great to hear, thank you, I greatly appreciate it!
Take your time, and do let me know if you have any question.
My pleasure!

excellent tutorial thx
Thank you, I greatly appreciate it.
Have a great weekend.
Had this pedal for so long and your tutorial finally helped me dial in my guitar sound with my Katana 100w head. Thanks so much.
Hey there, Al3xander 😊
That's amazing to hear, I'm very pleased!
Thank you for watching my video, I'm glad it served its purpose.
Please let me know if you need anything else, or have further question.

I need help here. If i have created 2 patches, one with overdrive and another for a clean sound, is it possible to assign each patch to a control? Do i need an extra footswitch, or the patches can be assigned to the Up/Down controls?
Hi again.
I replied to your other comment, on one of my other videos, so check that reply out.
I also mentioned this video in the reply, and thatøs what I would recommend doing, using the Assigns.
Then you can have it all within ONE patch.
Awesome video..... thank you!
I'm glad you liked it, Bernie!
Let me know if you need anything else.
Best regards.
thank you for posting this, can you help me, I have boss me 80, and I want to switch to gt1 or maybe gt100 any suggestions?,
Hi Emmanuel :-)
Basically the GT-100 and the GT-1 are the same thing - the GT-1 is just in a more compact size and have a few less features, for example the Dual Amp mode, etc.
I'm very pleased with both units, and I use them very often!
If you're looking for something small and compact, then go for the GT-1. If you're looking for something bigger and with a few more options, then go for the GT-100.
The effects and preamps in both units are superb and you can do a lot of things with them!
I hope this helps!
If not, then let me know!
Cheers :-)
GuitarNTabs thank u for this video! I am also considering gt100 or gt1, my only concern is 5 buttons vs 3 buttons (1 ctrl). Is it really not user friendly to switch sounds and take longer time to switch functions setting?
Also i have watched a video about looping issue of gt1, do u encounter the same issue?
Thanks!! I m just a beginner of multi effect processor fyi :) thank u!
How do you make the volume of the clean proportionate to the OD volume? When I switch over from the clean to the OD it's lot louder!
GuitarNTabs, is there a way to copy a patch? For example, i have a dirty patch set up for my PRS guitar. I also use a Les Paul on stage, so i would like the same dirty patch that i have set up for my PRS, but have a 2nd one set up so that i can tweak it for the Les Paul
Hey there, Chris P!
Thanks for the great question!
Yes, you can easily copy/re-arrange patches.
Simply select the patch you want to copy/re-arrange, press both the ENTER & EXIT-buttons, and now choose the desired location to save the patch to.
That should pretty much be it.
I hope that makes sense :-)
If not, then please let me know.
Cheers.
Thanks 👍
You're welcome!
I don't have a GT -1 , but looking in to it. Looks kinda hard in a way,but worth it once it could be navigated. I'm sure if I am able to acquire one, it'd be worth the investment. Good tutorial.
Hey there, @Jody Sanders 😊
Thanks for your comment and kind words - I appreciate it.
I'm sorry if this video gave you the wrong impression.. the GT-1 isn't hard at all to navigate, trust me.
I've owned the GT-1 since it first came out, and it's truly an amazing piece of gear. I mainly use it direct to either my studio monitors, or to my band's PA, when playing live. I therefore use both the onboard effects and preamps/cabinets - they are splendid!
Of course there's always a learning-curve, but the Manual is of help, and if you decide to get one, then I'd be more than happy to assist you as well - you just let me know 😊
The GT-1 has my highest recommendations, and I'm positive you'll be happy with it, if you decide to buy one!
Please let me know if you have further questions, or comments, I'd be more than happy to help out.
Looking forward to your reply.
Best wishes.
I have a Digitech unit from like 20 years ago at least, that is very similar to this. I stopped using it because like this one, you almost need an engineering degree to know how to use it. I recently started using it again for something different, and its still just as hard to use, but there are some great tones to be found there. I hesitate to buy this one even though it looks like a great value, due to the complexity. But for those that have the time and patience, it looks great.
Hi sir how can i get a overdrive-distortion-delay sequence on the gt1? Great video by the way😊
Спасибо, было полезно 🤘
Даже спасибо - Дайте мне знать, если вы что-то упустили.
Google Translate.. hehe, I hope it makes sense 😊
So can you only assign another effect to the ctl 1 or would you actually be able to assign one to one of the arrow controls? Like have my base sound clean, then ctl1 be overdrive, and make one of the arrows like a solo/boost? Thanks
Hey there, Josh!
Thanks for your comment and question - I appreciate it!
You can assign up to 6 effects to the CTL1, if you wish to. You can also set the UP and DOWN buttons to activate effects - but only one per footswitch. I have another video about that - link here:
th-cam.com/video/hcPPoI6Yi_s/w-d-xo.html
The OD/DS Solo and Preamp Solo are only available on the CTL1, 2 and 3 footswitches, so I would set up one of the arrow footswitches to activate the overdrive, and then assign the CTL1 to solo boost.
I believe that should answer your questions.
If not, then please let me know 😊
@@GuitarNTabs thanks for the response and help that tells me exactly what I wanted to know before buying. Boss should employ you to make their manual for this pedal lol

Thank you, I'm very pleased to hear that!
I hope you will be happy with your Boss GT-1!
And please, let me know if you need anything! I'd be happy to assist.
Hehe, I surely wouldn't mind that..
Best regards 😊
I just bought this . will these changes to the ctrl pedal just be affect by this patch created or will affect all presets. also did you ever consider the zoom g3 it seems a bit easier since it has the look of stomp pedals
Hi again, Marc.
Merry Christmas.
Congratulations, you're gonna love this unit! I'd be of any help, if you need it, just let me know.
You can change the global settings for the CTL. By default it's set per patch, so you can set up different CTLs and assigns on each patch. If you change the function to "System" it will be the same CTL/assigns on every patch.
The great thing about the assigns, when set to "patch", are the possibility of having different settings on each patch.
I hope this helps and makes sense.
Best regards.
Cheers.
@@GuitarNTabs how are you likeing the pedal iam thinkin bout buying one
@@mustanggt3012 - I really enjoy the GT-1, it's a great piece of gear.
I've had mine since its first release, and I hasn't let me down.
I've used it for rehearsals, live gigs as well as home recording, and it has done all that, without a single flaw or issue.
I'd recommend the GT-1 to anyone, that's for sure. You get so much, for such a great price!
The possibilities are endless, really.
Let me know if you need anything else, I'd be happy to assist.

hi..is there a shimmer reverb on this pedal or can you create it on the pedal.....i really like the shimmer reverb effect
Hey there, Daniel!
No, there's no dedicated shimmer reverb in the GT-1.
I haven't tried to replicate one, so I'm not sure, but maybe it's possible!
There're a lot of different effects, so it might be possible to get close 😊
Excellent video
Thank you, I appreciate it!
Cheers.
Very good job man!!! But is it possible to go from clean to distortion gradually using the expression pedal?
Thanks, Brasellino, I appreciate it! :-)
Yes, that can be done, but it would require a good amount of assigns - especially if you want to change the preamps.. Perhaps you could find a medium preamp, then set the EXP pedal to control the gain of the preamp, and then have it set fairly clean, then engage the EXP to increase the gain. If you do that, do might want to keep and eye on the volume.. that would probably increase some.. :-)
Hope this helps!
Cheers! :-)
Good job. I will like to ear it on a real little tube amp like blues jr for small gigs. Does the dirty tones sound good and real in front of a tube amp?
Thank you!
Yeah, I'm trying to make that possible, but I don't have an amp like that, at the moment, but when I do, I will make a video on the topic.
I'm sure they'll do, yes. Dial in your tube amp, and add the desired effects from the GT-1 and tweak from there.
It should work out real good.
I hope this helps.

Thank you so much! This video helped me a lot. I recently bought the Boss GT-1B, but I couldn't understand how to program these kinds of changes. Even though my processor is for bass, the design and everything works the same as the Boss GT-1.
Hey there, Said Araya :-)

Exactly, the programming is the same, so that's great!
I'm glad I was able to help!

Excellent vids on the GT-1. You are the best. I have a question about the FS-7, I was wondering if it were possible to set up the FS-7 to work as the ‘up and down’ buttons (to scroll through my patches) instead of the ‘up and down’ buttons on the GT-1 itself? I haven’t been able to find info anywhere. Thanks for your time, Joey.
Hi there,
Thanks for watching, and thank you for leaving a comment.
Sure, that can easily be done. Simply press the Memory Edit button, scroll to the end of the chain, find the CT2 and CT3 menus, and change their function.
Then head to the PREF menu by pressing the MENU button, and set the function for the CT2 and CT3 to SYSTEM, instead of PATCH. Now this will enable the CT2 and CT3 to be scrolling your patches on all presets.
I hope this helps.
Cheers.
@@GuitarNTabs I will try it out, looks simple enough. I also realized I wasn’t using a trs cable so that was an issue as well of course. Thanks again for your time. You are the best.
Cool
may I ask why you use Cubase 5?
I was using 8 then I bought 10 and found some of the features like studio EQ and a scrolling function in the event window were no longer there.
fortunately Steinberg allows you to down load previous versions so if you buy 10 you could unlock 5 from their library if you wish.
great work thanks so much!
Hi John.
This video is several years old now, so at the time I used the version of Cubase I had available to me. It worked just fine for what I did.
I recently upgraded to Elements 10,5.
Thanks for the tip and the kind words.
Have a great day.
I'm interested in buying this GT1 and I have a question... The only way that I can assign an effect is in the button CTL1?
(without having any foot switchs)
Hey there, @Sebastián Astacio & Happy New Year!
You can assign effects to the CTL1, yes, but you can also add an extra footswitch - either the FS-6 or FS-7 - and get two extra footswitches - basically giving you CTL2 and CTL3. So in total you would have CTL1, CTL2 and CTL3. The onboard Expression/Volume pedal can also be assigned to do different things, as well as the UP and DOWN buttons.
The GT-1 is extremely versatile, and the effects and preamps/cabinets are superb!
Let me know if you need anything else. I'd be more than happy to help out.
Cheers.

These tutorials are awesome.
Do you know how to make expression pedal 1 control volume and EXP2 control the pedal FX octave pedal ?
Hi there.
I'm very sorry for the late reply, I've been behind on answering comments...
I believe we answered this question on one of my other videos, but here's the reply again.
The EXP2 can only be assigned to Volume, if you adjust it in its menu in the Signal Chain. However, you can set up other Assigns (A1 through A6) where you can use the EXP2 as well.
In this case, if you don't mind, I would probably set up EXP1 to do the Wah and then EXP2 to do the Volume.
Start by setting up the EXP2 to only do volume, like this:
Press Memory Edit, then use Knob 1 to scroll through the Signal Chain, and then find EXP2, then press Enter. Set its FUNCTION from OFF to FOOT VOL, and that's all good.
Next, press Exit to exit the EXP2 menu. Then scroll back a little, until you see EXP1, then press Enter. Then change its FUNCTION from PDL FX/VOL to PDL FX.
Make sure to save your adjustments.
I hope this helps.
Let me know if you need anything else.
Best regards.
Hi!
Why the delay button dosen't activate after i set it on any of the A buttons?

Would like to know the settings for Fender Mustang LT25 speaker while connecting with GT1. Setting sounds different than with the headphone on maybe due to effects that is inbuilt the speaker? even after disabling the effects and twin reverb selected .
Hi there.
Thanks for your comment and question.
First of all, you need to decide how you want to use the GT-1 with your Fender amp.
Since your Fender amp is a modeling amp, which also includes effects, it's important to get the GT-1 placed and incorporated properly.
If you want to use the GT-1 for its effects only, then connect it to your amp's front input, and make sure to turn the GT-1's preamp-button OFF. Then dial in your Fender amp to sound like you want it to, and add remaining effects from the GT-1.
Set the Output Select to Small Amp or Combo Amp.
If you want to use the GT-1 for both its effects and preamp types, then you could connect through the Fender amp's AUX input. This will disable the preamp section of your Fender amp, only leaving the speaker to output the signal. You can then use the GT-1 for both its effects and preamp types, but you should probably turn off the GT-1's speaker type.
Set the Output Select to Combo Amp Return or Line/Phones.
I hope this helps.
Cheers.
@@GuitarNTabs As you have said the AUX facility can come handy to get the GT1 output from the speaker. Thinking whether output quality from the AUX will be same as from the cable? Thanking you for helping out with valuable information.👍😊
@@rongsw190 - Indeed it can, yes.
I believe so, but can't say for sure, you'll have to test and try it out.

Hi there.
Thanks for your comment and question, I appreciate it!
I would highly recommend the GT-1, honestly. The effects are top quality, as well as the onboard Preamp and Cabinet models.
I've owned my GT-1 since it very first came out, and I'm still enjoying it!
It's compact, easy to navigate through and the overall sound quality is splendid!
In that price range you can't go wrong with the GT-1 - trust me.
If you do decide on the GT-1, then let me know, and I'll be happy to get you started, if you need any help or tips.
All the best.
Great tutorial! I am definitely going to buy a FS-6 and experiment with CTL 2 and 3
Thanks, John, I'm pleased to hear that!
Go with the FS-7 instead, it's a great footswitch.
Have a great day.
@@GuitarNTabs yes ok I have one.
so now is see your other video comparison of the Gt 1000 core.
I have a question,
so I see I can assign Ct1 2 and 3 but only have FX1 and 2 , does the core allow Fx 1 2 3 4 etc, in one patch if there is a desire to do something like Clean 12 string with chorus , to a distortion lead with octave and compression
to do that on Gt 1 in one patch there would have to be an FX 3 for more modulation options
@@johnmcminn9455 - Hi!
The GT-1 is limited to only 2 FX slots (FX1 and FX2) so it's a bit harder to get that to work.
However, you can always switch between effects within FX1 and FX2, by using the Assigns.
For example, you could start out with the FX1 being the Acoustic Simulator and FX2 chorus, then set up assigns to change the Acoustic Simulator to Compressor and the Chorus to Octave, when you switch parts for the song, play, etc. That's a way to go about it, with the GT-1.
The GT-1000Core has a lot more, in regards to FX slots, so it's able to be a bit more complex and allow for more complex signal/effect routing.
I hope this helps.
Cheers.
@@GuitarNTabs thanks a lot! That is a good suggestion .
I have an HX Stomp, by using the GT-1 I am becoming less afraid of it!
I d k if the Gt 1000 core is similar with the foot switches, the Hx has a sensitivity for the buttons where as if you brush against one, it will go to a different function, I turned the sensitivity off. I actually thought the HX had a virus.
the GT 1 is so logical.
I like how the Easy Edit allows you to group your favorite patches together so you can access them in order .
great videos, much like taking a college class , thank you!
@@johnmcminn9455 - You're welcome, I'm glad you liked the suggestion.
Indeed, the GT-1 is logical, and can really produce some great sounding patches!
Let me know if you need anything else.

You can hook this up to a PC right? I was hoping to use it in Logic Pro x or something.
@Damien Leigh - Yes, the GT-1 can be connected to a PC via USB and used as an Audio Interface.
It works great that way.
Let me know if you have further questions.
Best regards.
I hooked my into my laptop and tried using it with ntrack-9, but it's not showing up in my connected audio devices. I installed the driver per the instructions. My fender mustang amp works fine as an interface. What am I doing wrong? Any help?
Hello, William. Sorry for the late reply.
Did you try and uninstall the drivers, then install Adobe Air, and then install the GT-1 driver(s) again.
I believe that should work.
Let me know.
Cheers.
i have boss gt-1 connected to my computer via usb.. i run the Boss Tone Studio for GT-1 application. In the connections, I select the Midi In Midi Out and Audio In and Audio Out options, all for GT-1 .. I click connect and after a few seconds the window returns to select the connection option for Midi In ,Out and Audio In ,Out .. and so same thing over and over... why?
Hi,how do I get the reading to say clean to distortion, does it need to be connected to a computer, thank you
Hi there, Ian.
Sorry for the late reply...
You simply press both the ENTER and EXIT buttons, at the same time, and that will take you into the WRITE menu. Then use the ENTER button to write the patch, and then, in a later menu, you will be able to rename the patch, and call it what you want.
I hope this helps.
P.S. It can be done on the PC as well, but doesn't have to be.
All the best.
These videos are incredibly helpful - thank you! Do you have any videos using the GT1 showing how to go from distortion to a lead? I am very curious to see your thought process on how you set up your lead channels.
Cheers, Chris!
Thanks, man! I truly appreciate the kind words!
Hmm, I actually don't think so.. Atleast not right off the bat.. Anyway, I can easily explain it here :-)
Generally, when I need a lead/solo boost, and I already have an OD/DS pedal activated, I will simply assign one of the CTL footswitches to activate the OD SOLO-assign. What that will do is to give the activated OD/DS a boost in volume, a tiny bit gain and also a frequency boost. I use that ALL THE TIME, and I haven't found another feature that works better. It's simple to set up, easy to use and you're going to cut right through - it's as simple as that, really :-)
Of course you could also fiddle around with the different EQ-parameters, but why do that, when the OD SOLO-feature is so much easier, and even better? :-)
If you have an overdriven/distorted preamp activated as well, if you use one of the onboard preamps, then you can assign the PrA SOLO features, which will do the same thing as the OD/DS-SOLO, just for the activated preamp :-)
The good people at Boos/Roland really thought this through - I really like it! :-)
I hope this answers your question, but you're always welcome to ask further questions :-)
Have a great one, mate.
Cheers.
Thank you my friend!
Hey man, thanks for the info below/above on how to set it for rhythm overdrive to lead solo. That was real helpful . This is one of the best videos I’ve watched so far that explains how to program CTL assigns in depth. I do not have the GT 1 at the moment , I have the Me70 but am going to sell the me70 as the sounds in the GT1 sound excellent for using live through a P.A . The pre amp models seem very good. Thank you for your videos. Best wishes ...... Paul
Hey there, The Atomic Punk :-)
Thanks for your comment and the kind words - I appreciate it!
I just think it's so important to know about the assigns, and what they can really do, because they will enable so much and make things much easier. :-)
I would highly recommend getting the GT-1, without a doubt. The effects are superb and the preamps and cabinets are awesome! There're loads to choose from!
I use the GT-1 through the PA, and my studio monitors, and they quality is excellent, and it stays the same, every time!
That's what I like about a set-up like this - it's consistent!
I really like the Clean Twin preamp model, with the 2x12 cabinet option - man, that's great for some clean stuff and even with the T-Scream overdrive infront! Add some reverb and delay to that, and you're in solo heaven!
Let me know how it all goes, and feel free to get in touch, if you need anything!
Best wishes, Paul & cheers!
GuitarNTabs, when using the GT-1 through the PA at gigs, do you find yourself having to tweak the settings on your patches from venue to venue? I play some outdoor venues, then some smaller venues, and I'm finding that I have to constantly tweak my patches depending on the venue. But note, I am running the GT-1 through the front of the amp and not the FX loop or PA.
I'm thinking of buying this unit. This method show has a lot of advantages. On paper you should be able to switch between clean and distortion by having two patches adjacent to each other and swapping between the two. However my experience with these kind of units is that they often have a bit of a lag or cut out between changing patches which make doing it that way undesirable, is it the same with this unit?
Hi there, Dan.
Using the Assigns will allow you to make such changes within ONE patch, not having on switch.
That way you won't need to have two patches beside each other.
@@GuitarNTabs I've just skimmed the manual for the unit; how many manual assigns do you get? Does this change as you add extra control pedals?
@@DanGleabols - You have a total of 6 Assigns - A1 to A6 - plus the CTL1, 2 and 3, if you add an extra footswitch.
It's plenty, and pretty sweet!
Hi if i using clean sound just chorus and delay..can i assign OD than chorus and delay can be off...tq
Hello there,
Sure, you just have to use the Assigns, one assign to turn on the OD and two separate assigns to turn off the Chorus and Delay.
I hope this helps.
Let me know if you need anything else.
Cheers.
this has helped a lot thank you. one question- why does the volume jump when you go from the clean to the distortion? It also varys greatly from patch to patch.
Hey Al :-)
I'm very glad to hear that it helped you - you're welcome :-)
Well, the volume jumps because the distortion will add more gain to the patch, than the clean sound would do.
Indeed, on the factory presets, on the GT-1, the volume will vary a great deal, when you scroll through then...
There's a lot of uncontrolled gain on those patches, and I generally don't like to use the factory presets... I like to create my own patches instead. It also gives the best result.
A way to eliminate this, and this is what I do when I create patches, is to use a studio dB-meter/volume meter to check your levels. It's also called 'Level matching' because you're matching your levels, so that no effect or sound will jump in volume.
All the effects and preamps, onboard the GT-1, is far from level matched, so that's why you need to check it.
I've found that several of the preamps and other effects are far from level matched... So I went in and did that myself, on that patches I created. It's a big improvement, and your patches will sound a lot better, because you won't have any uncontrolled gain stages.
You could also see if your recording program has a dB-meter in its plug-ins. I know that FL Studio has that, because I used that, before I got my studio dB-meter :-)
Let me know if this helps, and you understand.
Feel free to ask further questions - I'll be happy to help!
Cheers!
Yes thank you very much .I play in a church band and usually use an acoustic guitar but recently purchased an electric Gretch hollowbody guitar so I bought the gt-1 to allow me to run into our mixer. We lost our sound guy and I don't know much about how to hook into the system, but watching your videos has helped greatly . Thanks again . Al
Thanks, Al, I appreciate it!
Feel free to get in touch, if you need future help!
For running into the mixer you would need a DI Box (Direct box) either in Mono or Stereo, depending on the channels available on the mixer, and your own needs. The GT-1 sounds great in stereo, and that's how I use it. I use a Radial ProD2 Stereo DI box, and I'm very happy with that.
You would take the left output (for mono) on the GT-1 and connect it to the input on the DI box, and running the XLR output from the DI out to the PA/Mixer. For stereo, use both outputs from the GT-1 and run it to the stereo DI and then to the mixer channels.
Let me know how it all turns out, Al :-)
Thanks & Cheers!
sorry to have so many questions but you seem to have the answers- when using the gt-1 live will the volume be controlled at the mixer or will I have to change the gain on the gt-1. Also you said that I need to play through a di box, should that be an active or passive box. thanks again so much for sharing all your knowledge. I not only watch your videos but now read your answers to other peoples questions. Al
Hey again, Al :-)
Thanks for coming back, and letting me answer your questions! I'm happy to help :-)
Generally the volume will be controlled at the mixer, yes, but you'll also have to set the Master Output Level on your GT-1. I set my Output Level at 80, sometimes 90, and that seems to produce the output I'm looking for. You could set it to 100, which would basically be 'half way' on the GT-1's output volume, and that should be fine as well. The output level on 80 is basically what I set it at, when I'm at rehearsals, so that's why I stick to that. The beauty of a sound-guy and a mixer, is that he can turn your signal up, if it's too low, and take it back down again, if it's too hot. So set your output level on the GT-1 to where you belive it'll be good, and let the sound-guy do the rest :-)
One thing to keep in mind:
If you create your own patches, then take a close look at the levels, as you're creating the patches. Your sound-guy will probably say, at some point, 'your volume is jumping up and down' - 'what are you doing to your patches!'. So when you create your patches, then check the levels, each time you add in a new effect. Effects like Compressors, overdrives, distortion, etc. will add gain to your sound, and that can cause inconsistancies in the sound and volume.
I use a studio dB-meter for this, when I create my patches, and it has helped me out a bunch! Not only do I know that all my patches are at the same leve, but all my patches sound so much better, now that all volumes are under control ;-)
The Radial ProD2 Stereo DI that I use is Passive, meaning that it doesn't require a battery or phantom power to operate. A Passive DI would be a great choice - all you basically need to do is plug in the cables and the DI will pass your signal through. So, get a passive one :-)
Thanks, Al, I appreciate it!
Let me know if there's a certain video or thing you'd like me to explain, I'll see if I can do it :-)
Cheers! :-)
