| 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 |

| Subject: | Killer Boss Floorboard |
| Quality:
| This thing is a tank. |
| Sound:
| The general tone of this unit is bright and lively (much like the Boss pedals), its also really touch sensitive. I didn't realize how much noise my hands made until I got this unit. The upside is that helped improve my picking alot.
Amp Models:
The models sound like pedals version of the amps they represent, this is not a bad thing, as IMO its improves on what I didn't like about the representative amps in reality.
Effects:
are, in general, pretty good, being able to moce them around was one of the reasons I bought this unit in the first place. Synths tracks EXTREMELY well. but don't quite have the sonic variety of the Pod. Harmonizers work well too, but they've always worked well with Boss units, so no surprise there. The Reverb are not its strong point, I've heard much bettter reverbs on other units. An exception would be the spring reverb. Roland actually added the sound of a clanking spring to its spring reverb, which was very cool. |
| Reliability:
| Had mine for three months now, no problems which again, is something I would totally expect from Boss. |
| Overall:
| I really lke this floorboard. So much so that I'm writing a new album with it. It's comparable with the Pod X3 Live (which I owned before this board), although very different. |
| Playability and Feel:
| The unit is solid. Footswitches do not have a physical click, but do have lights. |
| Tone:
| refer to sound section |
| Finish:
| It's silver metal. Looks nice, its does get dirty though. |
| Action:
| Nice, I didn't even have to calibrate the floorboard, which was nice |

| had it for 2 months now im trying to take care of my gear i bought the boss bag for this and this baby is built tough |
| Overall:
| I love this machine. i play heavy metal and this is perfect for metal players I played around with boss products for awhile now and this pedal came easy to me i got a good sound down but i still have alot to learn. the screen is easy to see dark or light. the only problem i had so far was the rebate but with or with out the rebate this is worth it. and the free head phones work great with it. |
| Playability and Feel:
| easy to play around with if you played around with boss before |

| 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. |
| Tone:
| Any tone you want. Endless possibilities! |

| Great finish! |

| 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! |

| 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. |
