Boss GP-10 Guitar Processor with Roland GK-3 Pickup and 13-Pin Cable

Manufacturer's Description

Featuring a powerful instrument modeling engine and diverse multi-effects, the new GP-10 Guitar Processor puts an incredible sonic spectrum under your fingers. Driven by BOSS’ acclaimed COSM technology, the GP-10 gives you instant access to guitar, bass, and synth models, tuning changes, and world-class amps and effects, all in one convenient pedal. In addition to providing unparalleled versatility for stage playing, the GP-10’s unique multi-channel audio capabilities and guitar-to-MIDI conversion open new creative opportunities for music production in the studio.

The GP-10 supports a normal guitar and/or a guitar equipped with a Roland GK pickup. The multi-effects section features COSM amps and effects derived from the BOSS’ flagship GT-100, and these can be used with any guitar via a standard 1/4-inch cable. The 13-pin GK input provides access to both the instrument modeling and multi-effects sections, opening up the GP-10’s full range of sound-making potential.

When using a GK pickup with the GP-10, you can instantly change your guitar’s entire sound and/or tuning with the press of a footswitch or pedal. Powered by real-time DSP, the GP-10’s modeled instruments are ultra-responsive and highly expressive. They can also be blended with the normal guitar sound, putting an infinite range of tones at your command.

The GP-10 includes classic electric guitar models with single coils and humbuckers, as well as steel- and nylon-string acoustics, basses, banjo, resonator, fretless guitar, and a sitar. There’s also an analog-modeled synth engine on board, which powers an emulation of the legendary Roland GR-300 guitar synth as well as a super-fat OSC Synth with two oscillators and a ton of adjustable sound parameters. In addition, the Poly FX section provides a range of unique sounds only possible with GK processing, including Slow Pad, Crystal, and others.

With any of the GP-10’s modeled instrument sounds, you can change your guitar’s tuning any way you like—all without ever touching your tuning keys! Presets are available for many different open tunings and 12-string sounds, plus “down” tunings that are essential for heavy modern rock playing. Of course, it’s also possible to go wild and create your own custom tunings, with a range of +/- 12 semitones available on each string.

Via its integrated USB audio/MIDI interface, you’re able to use the GP-10 to record pro amp and effect tones in your DAW with any guitar. You can also capture dry signals, and then re-amp them through the GP-10 to dial in the perfect tones for your mixes. Using a GK pickup extends your potential even further, providing sound capabilities that go far beyond any normal guitar processor.
