| Subject: | It's a Tone Factory! |
| Quality:
| It's built like a brick. Doesn't slide around on the floor and you don't have to treat it like it's made of glass like some of the pedals out there. You can stomp on it or jump on it and it still sits there lookin and sounding great |
| Reliability:
| I've had it for 3 months and there isn't even a hint of a problem |
| Overall:
| It's everything I was looking for and more. I was tired of dealing with cables and stompboxes surrounding me and they are all in one neat package that stays where you put it. And it is a tone monster, I can dial in any sound I want. |
| Playability and Feel:
| It feels like it was built to last forever. The pedals respond immediately, it lights up like a christmas tree so you can always see what your doing - even in sunlight. |
| Tone:
| I play a American Deluxe Strat and the GT-10 is the perfect compliment to it. The only gripe I have is the wah-wah. I have used a cry baby for over 30 years and the GT-10 has one on board, but it is so much easier using the pedal instead of dialing it in and hoping you didn't turn on the volume pedal instead. |
| Finish:
| Awsome! |
| Action:
| It is very easy to use. If you are new to all of this you won't get overwhelmed with a thousand settings,It has a lot of usable presets that are easy to figure out- but if you have been around awhile there are probably a thousand settings to play with |

| Quality:
| Very well made! Nice design, easy to understand. Very high qaulity! |
| Sound:
| I love the way it sounds. Very rich clean sounds. Way too many options but that's what I love about it.
I've owned the Gt-8, I like this better. It really allows you to go deep into your own creativity and come out with some amazing new sounds. |
| Reliability:
| This thing is built like a tank, though it will probably stay in my studio, I wouldn't be afraid to take it on the road.
It's made of metal,very sturdy! |
| Overall:
| When I first got this I knew I had to experiment with it before I made any descions about how to rate it. This thing is awesome! It allows you to create your own tones and add effects. I'm amazed at all of the great sounds I get out of it.
I'm going directly into my audio interface with wonderful results.
I'm not really sure about the purpose of the USB connection, it doesn't work like I wanted it to work. You'd think they would have designed it like a plugin but they didn't. Maybe it's ok to transfer data but I wouldn't use it to record, it's much better to go directly into your audio interface.
It's tons of fun the sounds are rich and full. You can get the sound you want. |
| Playability and Feel:
| It's not a tuba. |

| Any tone you want. Endless possibilities! |

| Subject: | Get It... The GT-10 and AMS are Awesome! |
| Quality:
| This effects processor, like its predecessors, is very well built. The pedal foot switches are well placed and easy to use. The wah/volume/expression pedal is smooth. |
| Sound:
| The factory tones (patches) are great but, like all multi-effects processors, are not always usable. You can, however, alter any aspect of any tone and import tones from other users. I use the GT-10 with a Roland GR-20 guitar synth (also purchased from AMS) along with a Boss RC-50 loop station. Guitars used with the GT-10: Fender Deluxe VG Strat, Fender Roland Ready Strat, Gibson LP Custom ('76) w/ GK-3 pickup. This combination of units provides a wide array of usability and tones. |
| Reliability:
| Don't know yet. I have Boss pedals dating back to the late '70s that are still going strong. |
| Overall:
| The Boss GT-10 is an awesome effects processor! As with any multi-effects processor, not all of the patches are perfect and usable; however, you have the option to adjust everything. I do not fiddle with the patches much and have found a number of them that use regularly. You can also import patches from other users with the library feature, even GT-8 and GT-6 patches. Although there is a USB port, you cannot use it to load patches; this must be done via the midi connections with a midi/USB device. The library software could be more user friendly. Regardless, this is a "must have" processor. The onboard looper is good, but the stereo loop time is too short (16-18 sec.), but it is good for some quick looping action. The I/O options are good and the CTL switches and be independently configured. |
| Playability and Feel:
| The controls, switches, and wah/volume pedal are easy to use. The new blue LCD is good and you can select what data you need to see, a little, a lot, big, small, etc. The new red indicator lights are an improvement; however, in a dark room, the bright red lights visually block the button labels, so some familiarity with the button locations is required. |
| Tone:
| Perfect and fully adjustable! However, to get the raw tones from the GT-10 you must use a super clean guitar amp, keyboard amp (Roland KC line), or PA. |
| Finish:
| The new silver finish is fantastic; no fingerprints! |
| Action:
| Does not apply here, but the unit functioned perfectly right out of the box. AMS shipped quickly and even beat a competitor's price -- AMS is Awesome! |

| Quality:
| You have heard "this is built like a tank", it is true, like all of the Boss products I have owned. |
| Reliability:
| Boss processors are notably durable, unless you are an idiot and like to abuse your equipment |
| Overall:
| This board is awesome, I give it a "10" |
| Playability and Feel:
| The volume/wah/pitch shift pedal has a sensitivity adjustment on the toe switch, how cool is that!? |
| Tone:
| The tone is infinate. |
| Finish:
| Cool silver heavy metal flake |
| Action:
| Some say deffinatly read the owners manual because of the complex and difficult parameters, but if you have owned any Boss guitar effects processors, you can easilly pull it strait out of the box and start writing your own programs, plus this thing has some realy cool channel "A" and channel "B" options. |
