BOSS GT-8 ..(Review about one of classic effect guitar)

For this topic sound system equipment will discuss about a legendary guitar effects that would have been familiar to the guitarist,BOSS GT - 8 is a digital effects unit that includes the effect of the most complicated in its use , but this effect is automatically matched to boost sound of your guitar , we do not need to fuss and make a new patch confused with boost knob middle , just press it directly activates the CTL pedal .Editing sound in the BOSS GT-8 is very tricky  but if you've mastered the unit is secured very satisfactory.

Below I will explain some of the important points found on this legendary effect

Dual COSM ( Composite Object Sound Modeling ) - ( mode = Dual Stereo Preamp )
It means Channel A and Channel B can we be different settings . For example, Channel A > Peavey 5150 - Channel B > Soldano . So when connecting the BOSS GT-8 with 2 amps ( stereo ) , we could hear two different sound at the same time , to the left = 5150 and right hand  = Soldano . Not only there , the GT-8 also provides features for out second delay before the preamp between 0 - 50ms .So who came out weve trully stereo sound . ( Preamp mode = Dual Mono ) .
This feature can also combine two characters existing preamp outputs mono.For example we combine characters with Soldano SLO Marshall HiGain - 100 so we can pruduce a new character .

AMP CTL
This feature serves as a footswitch amps that we use . For example, we use the GT - 8 just as FX unit without using the preamp . So we can still change the channel amplifier that we use from clean to drive using the GT - 8 .

Dynamic Mode
With this feature we can change the dynamics of the sound simply by playing the game picking us . For example, when picking out loud the sound is when strumming quietly while the Soldano sound that comes out is a Roland Jazz Chorus.Not only that this feature could be to change the parameters of the effect . For example, when we play excerpts of its soft Gain is 40 and currently playing with the excerpts of his hard Gain to 100 . It was all just need one patch only.

Output Select
This feature is useful for tone correction . So the GT-8 will maximize the sound on the type of connection that we used.We can connect to the BOSS GT-8 and  Roland JC-120 , Small Amp , Combo Amp , Stack Amp , Roland JC - 120 Return , Return Combo , Stack Return , or Line / Phones .

FX Loop
This feature allows us inserting the other effects to the BOSS GT - 8, as the FX Loop on the amplifier . There are plugs that reads Send and Return.

Microphone Simulator
On the preamp setting not only features the only cabinet simulator
(type : Original , 1X8 , 1x10 , 1x12 , 4x10 , 2x12 , 4x12 , and 8x12 ) .
But it also provides features Microphone Placement simulator and its once.
Mic Distance: On axis , off axis
Position : Center - 10
Mic Level , Level n Direct . ( This feature is only active if the output select = Line / Phones )

Custom ( Preamp , OD , Cabinet , Pedal Wah )
This feature allows us to design a preamp , od , cabinets , and custom wah pedal based on a particular brand . For example, we want to create a custom preamp based on Marshall HiGain or designing a wah pedal with a new character based on Vox Wah pedal .

FX Chain
This feature is the simulation of the preparation of our securities . For example, we put overdrive before or after the preamp , dsb.We can arrange the order appropriate with our taste.

Of the many things above the following is a summary of some of the weaknesses that I encountered on the GT-8 guitar effects :

-Sound presets, including EZ Tones are provided by the manufacturer, not too good.
-Gain parameter that is provided (preamp & OD) to 120 (turbo) made ​​redundant features and a new alternative to the establishment of sound distortion. Because if we use too much, the resulting sound becomes not so clear.
-Action pedal is less deep
-Less practical because the size is too big and heavy weight
-Not available metronome
-Not available USB connection but we still could use midi cable to be connected to the computer and download the new patch from the internet that requires a fairly complicated arrangement.

So this is the one of a sound system equipment in the world of music i can say about the effects of the legendary BOSS GT-8.The overall effect is one of the guitars that references from me because satisfactory results may be obtained with little regulation in this effect we have previously set .. hopefully useful .. thanks
