The BOSS GT-1000, a premium multi-effects processor that ushers in a new era of performance. This top-of-the-line tone machine debuts BOSS's groundbreaking AIRD (Augmented Impulse Response Dynamics) technology, realized after decades of advanced research and supported by an ultrafast digital engine, 32-bit AD/DA, 32-bit processing, and 96kHz sampling rate throughout. The GT-1000 continues to evolve through ongoing firmware updates, expanding features like new amps and effects, bass support, and functionality enhancements requested by users.

AIRD amplifiers live and breathe like real tube amps, providing inspiring feel and authentic tonal dynamics that were previously unattainable in a digital processor. Sophisticated AIRD Output Select functionality takes things even further, letting you achieve consistently great sound with any setup, from standard guitar amps to full-range playback systems.

Highly Expressive Amplifiers and Cutting-Edge Effects

The GT-1000 features a wide range of BOSS original amplifiers suitable for all guitar styles, from super-clean to ultraheavy. Classic tube amps throughout history are included as well, from coveted vintage combos to modern high-gain heads. As expected from a flagship Boss processor, the GT-1000 is loaded with all types of effects, from overdrives and distortions to specialty effects like Slicer, Slow Gear and many others.

By choosing from a large selection of AIRD Output Select types, you can perfectly tailor the GT-1000 for any destination, whether it's a guitar amp input, an amp effects return or a full-range monitoring system.
