One important thing to be aware of is that backing up and restoring does not include livesets.
VERY important point! Thanks for mentioning it. I was pissed the first time I did it and all my livesets were gone. Best to back them up when you create them.
2 years later and this video is still helping people out. Thanks man!
I'm really glad that it's so useful to people!. Thanks.
@@Guitarnivore no question these videos have been invaluable to me
Best tutorial on Tone Studio I've seen. Short and to the point, no guitar playing. Exactly what I needed. Thank you
Awesome, thank you!
Best tone studio yet. I refer back to this all the time. Thank you!
Thanks for the clear explanation. What you get here is better than all other tutorials and instruction manuals on the library and the tone central. At least for a dummy like me 😀
Finally, a clear tutorial with usefull visual demonstration. Good job.
Thank you. Glad it helped.
Thank you, thank you. This is the first tutorial I've found after hours of TH-cam searching that actually shows how to import the patches and export them to your Katana. All the other videos just assume you already know how to do it so they skim right over it or they just don't know how to explain things in a way that makes sense to a newbie. Had my Katana for three days now and I feel I'm just now getting to use one of the best parts of tone studio. Okay, I'm a new subscriber now.
I'm glad it helped!
Excellent, excellent tutorial - thank you!
Used this video today. 05/27/2023 and was still extremely helpful and answered all the questions I had about the tone studio preset processes
An oldie, but goodie that is still relevant to Tone Studio and getting the job done. I'm just glad you didn't give up on your Katana. It has SOOO much to offer!
Very nice! This video is better than the one BOSS shares. Great job and thank you. I'm going to have so much fun now.
You really deserve more subscribers.. your tutorial videos are second to none... keep up the great work.....
Thanks! Perhaps I need to work on some more! I'm really happy that they are helping people with this amp. It can be intimidating when you first dive into it.
Best Boss Katana MK2 50 instructional video on youtube. Thank you
Thanks man!
Just saved me from having an aneurism trying to work this out.
Now I sound like E.J. !!
Except for the playing.......
Thanks for this - new Katana owner here and this was super helpful in getting me started with Tone Central 👍
Glad it was helpful! There is so much to enjoy with this amp.
Thank you. This a great tutorial. Much Appreciated :) best vid I have seen searching TH-cam
Dude! Thanks for this excellent video. I’m no longer afraid to play with Tone Studio!
Best tutorial on learning how to use Tone Studio. Short and to the point. All the others are long, off point, and contain too much guitar playing. This guy doesn't even have a guitar in hand, which is great.
Thanks! For a tutorial like this, there was no point in playing. I only did it in my ridiculously long 3 hour video to show people what all the different FX do. I did an update on this and also a tutorial for the Katana Man app.
This is exactly what I needed thank you!!
I was looking for this info. Great tutorial, thanks!
Glad I could help.
this is the most informational video ive seen about this! Thanks alot helped me keep up the good work
Thanks. I'm glad it helped!
Fantastic Informative resource. Thank you!
Awesome video, man!!! Thanks a lot. It was very helpful!!! Cheers.
Thanks, Best resource I've found for understanding how all the file functions work, then DEMO'ing each one!
Glad it helped. Boss isn't very good at explaining how their gear works. I've got a bunch more videos on my channel for the Katana that ay be helpful as well.
Thank you so much. You’re an absolute legend man
Just ordered mine. Thanks for the video

Thanks so much man. You really helped me out.
Finally, a tutorial that actually works and makes sense. Concise and clear. Thank you very much!!!
Glad you found it useful. I'm working on a comprehensive guide to the amp, so look out for that upload soon. Thanks for watching and I appreciate your comment!
@@Guitarnivore Best tutorial on TH-cam! I will unquestionably be watching for your upload. Thanks again!
@@Guitarnivore I'm hoping you can answer a question about an issue I've run into that I can't work out. I noticed there were 4 presets already saved in my newly purchased MKII 50 when tone central was downloaded. Having downloaded patches and attempting to test them out, the patch tones would not change most of the time when clicking the mouse on different patches to try out. However, only after turning the amp off and on, the new tone would kick in when trying them out. This would only last for anywhere between 2 and 6 different patches, then the tones would not change again regardless of when patch I was clicking on. Had to turn the amp off and on again for it to work properly again and the cycle would repeat to where I turned the amp off and on in order for the new tone to be heard. I have the newest update downloaded as well. Can you assist at all? Thanks in advance...
@@tg8882 I recall having a similar issue, but it was a while ago. Maybe back up your patchers and do a factory reset on the amp. It won't roll back your firmware, so don't worry about that. Also, if you have another usb cable, try switching it out. I've had cables go bad.
@@Guitarnivore Thanks, I will try that!
This is really helpful 👍🆗 just what I was thinking to have I now know what to buy almost bought a positive and boss is going to be the best
Thanks - good stuff.
Really helpful. Thanks!
Really helpful. I was trying to do this stuff and it didn't seem to be working, but after watching your vid, it all seemed to fell in place.
Glad it helped.
Awesome! Thank you
Very informative indeed 👍👍

Gg great video, thanks
Thank You SOO Very Much. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.
Thank you so much.
Thanks man 🙏
Thank you sir!
Thank you!
Excellent
Thank you so much for the info on where to get patch's. I'm new to the katana and could not figure out for the life of me how to import patch's. Now I have patch's galore. I was starting to think that i had some how donloaded the wrong tome studio program. Thanks again.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Awesome. So glad I could help. This amp can be a bit overwhelming when you first start using it.
@@Guitarnivore at first yes I found it a bit overwhelming but since I watched a couple of video's on how to download boss tone studio and then your how to upload patch's video, the amp has just gotten 100 times better. And I already thought it was an amazing amp. Thanks again brother. I'll be watching more of your video's from here on out.
Thanks man.
Great video, I think for the 50mk ll only thing worth using
is the delay and reverb ,just buy a few drive pedals in front of amp a lot simpler,
great thanks....
Nice!
thanks man!
Gracias Maqui..⚡️🤘🎸
Great work, man, thank you soooo much. This software is simple but not intuitive at all, imo.
Nice… started a 3/piece punk band and I think I’ll get the Katana MKII 50. Just need a few useable tones and when I get more familiar I’ll be able to make my own. The software seems overwhelming at first but I’m sure I’ll adjust
It can be a bit overwhelming, but once you get the hang of it, it comes pretty easy. I have a bunch of tutorials for dialing in tones as well.
Thanks bro!
🤘
Thank you
Glad it helped!
Thanks🙏🏻🎸
🤘
cant wait to do these fffffffffffffffffff
Спасибо, я теперь понял на что способна моя Катана))
Big help for me. Thanks a million
SO COOL. Thank you
Just got my Katana 50 MK II. Great review. Was just curious. If you needed to, is there a way to get the amp back to the channel settings it came with.
I have another video before this one that shows how to factory reset and upgrade the firmware.
Very clear and useful tutorial, thank you, but do you know if these work on the MK1 with all latest firmware and driver updates?
I don't know about the mk1, but you can download the free version and see if it connects, then decide if you want the shell out the extra money for the full version.
Great video. How come when I load patched to ch 1 a/b ch 2 ect when I use the buttons on the amp itself it always overrides my settings ? Like ch 1 is rock I write it in save it then I change channel then it goes back to a different patch boss reps couldn’t answer the question it’s very frustrating I don’t want to carry my laptop to a jam season any ideas ?
Can you use bias fx with the Katana 50mk2? Like usng the tones and software of Bfx and the katana is just your out to speaker?
Much appreciated man. I just spent a Saturday getting to learn all I can about boss tone studio and this was a great help. Stupid question !!! I though I only had 2 channels but I see A ch-1 A ch-2 and B ch-1 and B ch-2 !?! How do I toggle between both A and B chan ?
There is a button next to the two channels labeled A/B. Just press that and it'll switch banks.
I want to download the Gus G LIVESET. Do you know if there is an option to download the livesets?
Excellent thanks. One question, can you activate noise suppression and export into the amp so it's permanently on the amp? Noise is an issue for me, especially with the options other than clean. Appreciate your input
Yes to both of those. At 5:41 I explain how to write the to the amp. I have a much larger video on using Tone Studio, or you can check this playlist for the broken down version so you skip around much easier. th-cam.com/video/NE2SxLyvx78/w-d-xo.html
Thanks so much man, much appreciated
Any time.
thanks, i guess i could of read a manual but i was being lazy
Can you please share the link to Pink Floyd set? ❤️
Great video. Where can I find this Pink Floyd preset, please?
try bosstoneexchange.com There should be a few livesets there.
Hello I was wondering are you going to show the tablet version you said you were but I don’t see any? Thank you
I never did get around to it and forgot about it. I've been wanting to put out a new video lately, but I haven't really had any solid ideas for one. Guess what? I'll start working on it this weekend. Thanks for mentioning it and reminding me. It's going to take a lot of work with recording and editing a quality video, so give me some time. Thanks for the motivation, Matthew!
@@Guitarnivore thank you so much man you got this take your time no rush👍🏽
ive installed fender, and 2 sneaky amps that way its give me 3 seperate channels arent they supposed to be together?
I'm not sure I follow. The Sneaky amps are a base to build up on.
If im understanding this correctly you can have only 4 presets? Also, when you change settings on the amp knobs, does it save your changes to the preset? Thanks for the helpful video just adding a few questions.
With the 50, yes only 4 presets. If you use the panel to make adjustments and you want to save them, you have to long press the bank/channel button you want to save it to. The best way to go is with the Tone Studio though. It makes it a lot easier. There is also a $9 mobile app you can use.
@@Guitarnivore Thanks for the info. I figured out that yes it's 4 presets, but each preset can have 3 effects and each effect slot can have 3 settings. That's actually not too bad and opens up plenty of options imo.
@@HELLNAWW I really wish they'd make a GA-FC type footswitch for the 50, so you could switch between the channels and turn fx on and off. That's the only reason I moved up to the 100's.
I have the Boss Katana MKII 100w. Has anyone tried to install Tone Central on a M1 Mac mini? Boss web site says they have no intention of making this work for the M1, al though many apps run under rosetta on the M1. I loaded this on an older iMac with High Serria and it trashed my system and I had to re-install!
Question: I'm a new Katana MK2 owner, and my question is what happens to the preset factory patches in channels 1-8 when you import new tones into those banks? Do you have to do a factory reset to get them back? Or do they remain in the library indefinitely with their own patch names? Thanks!
That's a good question. It's been awhile and I'm not sure. The best thing to do if you like those patches is to create a new group in your tone library and save them there. That way if you ever want to get them back, you can just reload them into the bank.
I still cant get my amp to sound like the tones ive put into the channels, any suggestions on fixing it?
Sorry for the delay. A lot depends on your guitar. Sometimes your pickups can't always get the same sound as other have programmed it with. You may also need to adjust your amp/master volumes.
