The BOSS GT-5 is the ultimate floor-type multiple effects unit, developed in pursuit of the largest possible effects variety and highest possible sound quality. The GT-5's stunning preamp section employs Roland's COSM (Composite Object Sound Modeling) technology for emulating the best guitar amps in history - tone, speaker configuration and even various mic placements can be completely customized. The GT-5's COSM technology also allows guitarists to play entirely new, synth-like sounds with guitar-based dynamics.

Features

• Large variety of both traditional and cutting-edge guitar effects, including COSM-based preamp, chorus, tap tempo delay, reverb, as well as harmonist, "humanizer" and acoustic guitar simulator (28 effects total)
• Up to 13 simultaneous effects w/ programmable effects order
• 150 presets; 100 user patches; fully MIDI compatible
• COSM-based preamp allows for selection from a variety of computer-generated amplifier "models," speaker configurations and mic placements
• Harmonic Restructure Modeling (HRM) provides a wealth of new synth-like sounds with guitar-based dynamics (monophonic)
• Innovative functions such as "sound on sound" recording, auto fade in/out and "Quick Settings" for instant effects tailoring
• LCD and rotary encoder for quick editing; built-in expression pedal and tuner
• Rugged metal casing; built to withstand the rigors of touring
  
  Look no further ... All the vintage amps, killer tones and flexible effects processing you'll ever need are right here beneath your feet! Just plug in to the GT-5 and sound the way you've always wished you could.

Best possible sound quality.
The revolutionary GT-5 is the ultimate floor-type guitar effects processor/preamp, employing 22-bit A/D conversion and 18-bit D/A conversion at a 44.1kHz sampling rate for the cleanest possible sound. The GT-5's stunning preamp section sings with Composite Object Sound Modeling (COSM) -- the same Roland technology found in our revolutionary VG-8 V-Guitar System, GP-100 and BOSS GX-700. And all distortion and overdrive processing take place in the analog world -- the way it should be.

All the sounds you've craved!
28 stunning onboard effects let you easily create sounds that would have taken racks full of gear just a few short years ago. Up to 15 effects can be used simultaneously. The onboard effects include: a perfect combination of Roland's COSM-based preamp/speaker simulator and BOSS' analog distortion technology; a new Acoustic Guitar Simulator which turns your electric into a rich, full-bodied acoustic-electric; and amazing guitar synth effects based on Roland's harmonic restructure modeling (HRM) technology. In addition, a new "Drive Customize" function puts you in charge to customize your own preamp section and distortion/overdrive effects. Until now, only BOSS engineers have had this much control!

Easy to Use (Really!)
Each effect has several preset parameter settings that we spent some long hours tweaking (so you won't have to). But if you prefer, simply design your own effects settings with unmatched flexibility. 10 parameters can be controlled individually using the GT-5's control pedal and expression pedal(onboard/external), LFO, or even via MIDI controller. Each parameter is assigned by default to the most suitable controller (i.e. the wah effect's frequency value will instantly be assigned to the GT-5 's expression pedal). The GT-5 features a large LCD and rotary encoder for quick and easy editing. Could this miracle box get any easier? Of course. Just to make sure you didn't get caught in a learning curve, we laid out the GT-5's panel with dedicated buttons for each effect, so all you need to do is STOMP!
