THE BOSS
COMPACT
EFFECTS
STORY

From the beginning, BOSS has built the
best pedals by adhering to these key
principles: ➀ Reliable aluminum die cast
bodies. ➁ Pedal switches that withstand
the 100,000-repetition durability test.
➂ FET switches to eliminate the clicking
noise of conventional mechanical switches.
➃ Non-slip rubber bases. ➄ Easy-to-install
battery compartments. ➅ LED indicators.
➆ Battery and AC power.

Philosophy

Beyond standard effects, BOSS is famous
for its unique and unusual stompboxes,
such as the SG-1 Slow Gear, VB-2 Vibrato,
and, most recently, the SYB-5 analog­modeling bass synthesizer pedal.

Originality

Not just for guitarists, BOSS has a range of
effects built specifically for bass players. So
plug in, and anchor your music with solid,
high-impact effects that are custom­tailored for low frequencies.

Bassists Welcome

The history of BOSS reads like the history
of guitar effects. The famous compact
pedal line-up began in 1977 with the
classic OD-1 Overdrive,
which established the
masterful design
principle for all other
BOSS effects pedals
that followed.

Legend

Only the very best components and
circuitry are used in BOSS pedals. No
corners are cut, no
compromises are
made — these
pedals are built to
sound great and
take a pounding.

Pro Quality

Where will you take your tone? From
subtle sweetening to complete audio
transformation, BOSS provides more tone­shaping options than any other compact­effects manufacturer in industry.

Imagination

BOSS has laid claim to many “world firsts

”
during its illustrious history. Among the
many BOSS highlights have been bringing
to market the first-ever chorus, overdrive,
digital delay,
reverb, and
pitch-shifter
pedals.

Breakthrough

BOSS offers an incredibly wide variety of
effects that can take your sound to places
it has never been before. Whether you
need subtle polish or full, sonic immersion,
BOSS effects will do the job reliably and
professionally.

Colorful Lineup

It’s no accident that BOSS has become the
world’s leading effects manufacturer. With
over eight million pedals sold, BOSS has
built its reputation by connecting with the
community. We listen and react to what
players demand,
while also pushing
the envelope into
new, unexplored
realms.

Benchmark Overdrive & Distortion

BOSS’s original overdrive, the OD-1, was
famous for its rich, warm, and detailed sound.
That legacy carried forward to the popular
SD-1 and OD-3, and now to the BD-series —
the new standard in Overdrive processing.
Likewise, BOSS’s acclaimed DS-1 distortion
pedal evolved to the DS-2, which paved the
way for today’s benchmark distortion effect,
the MD-2.

New-Breed Overdrive

Adding to the legacy of great BOSS overdrives
(such as the OD and DS series), the BD-2 and
MD-2 represent the new standard in
overdrive/distortion effects. Try them soon!

BD-2: The BD-2 responds expressively to
performance dynamics, including factors such
as the guitarist’s picking attack, touch, and
volume/tone settings.
MD-2: The MD-2 can be extremely distorted
with fat and deep characteristics, while not
obliterating the original guitar tone.

wah sound), and “Uni-V” (a vintage
swirling rotary effect).

But the PW-10 doesn’t just do wah; it
also creates analog synth-like sounds via
its “Double Resonance” mode and cool
“talking” sounds in “Voice” mode. Eight

GT

COSM®Powered

High-powered COSM amp engines are built into the GT-series
processors, providing realistic, high-quality modeling of vintage
amps as well as innovative new amp sounds. Each amp has been
faithfully modeled, but the GT-series also allows you to create
original, never-before-heard tones as well.

Pro Effects

The GT-series provides a virtual mountain of expressive, pro-grade
effects. Effect blocks can be used simultaneously to create complex
textures and routings. Place the effects in any order, quickly and
easily. Drive it all from the built-in Control switches and pedal. From
subtle to sizzling, where will you take your tone?

Ultra-Flexible Editing

Freely customize your sounds and setups with ease. The GT-series
provides the freedom to create a universe of layered sound, with its
flexible setup configurations and wide-ranging parameters.

Fast & Friendly

No menus to navigate. Just plug in, and get down to business. This
floor-based multi-effects processor
is built with the simplicity of a
stompbox, focusing on killer
multi-effects (such as COSM
overdrive and distortion), rather
than amp modeling.

Hands-On Control

Dialing in your tone is easy, thanks to ME’s dedicated knobs for
each effect section, three footswitches, and a built-in expression
pedal. Great-sounding effects without all the menu surfing!

Road Tough

Like all other BOSS effects, the ME-series processors are easy to
transport yet built to withstand the punishment of constant
gigging. BOSS effects are tortured tested, and road ready.

Studio Smarts

This advanced multi-purpose processor
provides a virtual truckload of COSM modeled
amps and multi-effects for guitar, bass, and
even vocals. Inputs are provided for
Guitar/Bass, microphone (XLR), and stereo
Auxiliary, making it especially well suited for
the studio.

Computer Friendly

The GS-10 provides a USB port for easy connection to PCs and Macs.
It comes with Cakewalk Music Creator recording software for PC,
plus a dedicated GS-10 computer editor.

Speakers Built-In

Take the GS-10 anywhere. Plug in and play — no external monitoring
required, thanks to the super-handy built-in stereo speaker system.

Advanced Processors for Floor & Desktop

Trusted by the world’s greatest players, BOSS’s flagship multi-effects processors deliver
unsurpassed sound quality and programming flexibility for both stage and studio.

■ Pro Features

The GT-6B is a pro-caliber floor-based processor for bass, with
COSM Bass Amp Modeling, modeled compression, plus other
“must-have” effects such as COSM overdrive/distortion, COSM
wah, and reverb/delay. There’s also a true analog bypass, and
XLR and digital outputs with 24-bit converters for recording
applications, providing uncompromised sound quality.

■ COSM Bass Amp Models

The GT-6B provides six authentic COSM bass amp models,
recreating the tone and characteristics of some of the greatest
bass amps and speaker cabinets in history. Why settle for just
one bass amp sound when you can have the power of six
classics in one convenient box?

Professional Bass Multi-Effects

■ Dual COSM Amps

Feel the power of the GT-8’s dual COSM amp modeling engines.
Explore new sonic dimensions by combining two amp models,
or by switching between them during performance. Tap into the
expressive Dynamic mode, where two channels can be
controlled based on picking strength. Transition smoothly from
clean to mean by simply picking harder or softer.

■ Solo Switch

Each of the GT-8’s 46 COSM amp models contains a specially
programmed variation that’s optimized for soloing. Simply click
the Solo switch to activate the lead tone, and off you go — it’s
like having a separate solo channel on every COSM amp!

■ Extreme Effects

Forty-four effects categories are built into the GT-8. Up to 13

Ultra-Flexible Effects Chain

Having the freedom to configure the effects chain in any order you wish is one of
the keys to success when using multi-effects. A sound can be wildly different if
an equalizer is used before a distortion, or after, for example. The GT-series
proudly provides complete freedom over the preamp and effects chain routing.

■ Bass Effects with COSM modeling

In addition to its amazing amp models, the GT-6B provides a
world-class lineup of effects, including COSM-powered
compression effects modeled after four famous compressors.
Other effects include Auto Slap, sound-on-sound looping, and
BOSS's best synth-bass sounds with incredible tracking.

■ Versatile Performance Controls

Pilot the GT-6B with ease and enjoyment, thanks to its friendly,
ultra-intuitive interface with analog-style knobs. Inject extra
color and tonal animation into your performances with the
GT-6B’s built-in expression and control pedals.

effect blocks can be used simultaneously to create complex
textures and routings. All of your FX bases are covered —
compressors, reverbs, choruses, EQs, COSM-modeled wahs,
and much more. There are 200 preset patches included, plus
140 user patches for storing your custom amp/effects creations.

■ Connectivity

The GT-8 is stocked with enough I/O options
to satisfy even the most demanding pro. In
addition to its stereo analog outs, the GT-8
offers a 24-bit coaxial output for ultra-clean
digital transfer, an Amp Control jack for
switching between two amp channels on an
external amp, an external expression/control
pedal input, effects send and returns, MIDI in
and out, and a headphone output.

■ Flexible FX Routing

Another area where the GT-8 stomps the competition is in its
powerful effects routing. Internally, the 13 FX blocks can be
configured in any order you desire (for example, you can freely
assign an equalizer after a distortion effect or before it). And if

you’d care to take your tone “outside the box” and incorporate
some external effects into the GT-8’s signal path, you can do so
with the Ext Loop send and return. Flexibility in routing is the
name of the game.

Once a musical instrument generates sound vibrations, it reaches the human ear through various mediating objects, each of which significantly affects the sound.
The material and configuration of the instrument, the electric/electronic/magnetic amplifying system, the air and the reverberation of the room all affect the final sound.
Sound modeling, the latest DSP technology, “virtually ” reconstructs these objects. Roland’s breakthrough Composite Object Sound Modeling (COSM)uses the advantages of
multiple modeling methods and succeeds in accurately emulating existing sounds, as well as producing sounds that have never before been created.
