BOSS BOSS GP10S GUITAR PROCESSOR

Unlimited Sonic Possibilities

The new BOSS GP-10S puts a universe of amazing tones and tunings at your command…all in a compact processor that’s affordable and easy to use. With a Roland GK-compatible pickup on your guitar, the GP-10 lets you transform your sound into numerous classic electric and acoustic guitar types, basses, and even analog-modeled synths, including the legendary Roland GR-300. You also have access to instant altered tunings, including popular open tunings, 12-string tones, and “down” tunings that are essential for today’s ultra-heavy rock styles. The versatile GP-10 also functions as a full-featured multi-effects processor for both GK and normal pickups, giving you a huge selection of COSM amps and effects for live playing and studio recording. Onboard USB connectivity lets you capture GP-10 tones directly into your DAW and you can even play computer-based soft synths from your axe with the GP-10’s guitar-to-MIDI convertor!

BOSS GP10 GUITAR PROCESSOR AT A GLANCE:

Incredible Versatility for Stage and Studio Playing

The compact GP-10 is both an instrument modeling processor and a powerful multi-effects unit. Its multi-effects section features flagship-level COSM amps and effects, and these can be used with any guitar via a standard 6.3mm (1/4″) Phono cable. Plugging into the GP-10’s GK input with a Roland GK-compatible pickup and a 13-pin cable unlocks the instrument modeling section, opening up a world of amazing sonic possibilities for both live playing and studio recording. Instantly Change Your Guitar’s Tuning
  •     OPEN: D, E, G, A
  •     DROP: D to A
  •     D-MODAL
  •     NASHVILLE
  •     SHIFT: -12 to +12
  •     USER
  •     12-string guitar function

With a GK-compatible pickup, the GP-10 allows you to change your guitar’s tuning with the press of a pedal. There’s no need to change instruments or manually re-tune for different songs or styles—just dial up the tuning you need in the GP-10 and go. Play slide in open tunings like G and E, enjoy shimmering 12-string tones, or drop your entire guitar down in semitone steps for massive, ultra-heavy riffs. There are many tuning presets to choose from, and you can also create your own customized tunings for any application.

A World-Class Collection of Classic Guitars, Synths, and More
  •     Electric guitar: 12 types
  •     Acoustic: 9 types
  •     Bass: 3 types
  •     Guitar synthesizer: 3 types
  •     Poly FX: 5 types

In addition to instant tuning changes, using a GK-compatible pickup with the GP-10 lets you change your instrument’s entire sound as well. On hand are classic modeled electric guitars with single coils and humbuckers, plus steel- and nylon-string acoustics, basses, banjo, resonator, fretless guitar, and even a sitar! The GP-10 also includes an impressive analog-modeled synth engine that powers an authentic emulation of the famous Roland GR-300 analog guitar synth and a super-fat OSC Synth with two oscillators and many easily adjustable sound parameters. In addition, a selection of cool “Poly FX” deliver unique sounds only possible with GK processing, allowing you to take your playing into exciting new territory. Modeled sounds can be blended with your guitar’s normal sound, putting an infinite range of tones under your fingers.

Natural, Ultra-Responsive COSM Amps A core factor that defines an electric guitar’s sound is the amplifier type, and the GP-10 is filled with them. 30 different amps are at your disposal, including classic combos, vintage stacks, and modern high-gain amps, along with bass amps for modeled bass tones and a full-range amp for acoustic sounds. Powered by custom BOSS DSP and the latest developments in COSM technology, the amps in the GP-10 deliver organic, responsive tone, with adjustable settings to vary the natural compression and playing feel. All the GP-10’s amps can be used with either normal guitars or those equipped with a GK pickup. High-Performance Multi-Effects
  •     Preamp: 30 types
  •     FX: 16 types (including OD/DS)
  •     OD/DS: 21 types
  •     Wah: 6 types
  •     Chorus: 3 types
  •     Delay: 10 types
  •     Reverb: 7 types
  •     EQ: 1 type
  •     Noise Suppressor(NS): 1 type
  Inside the GP-10 is a wide selection of flagship effects derived from the GT-100. Most can be used with a normal guitar (without a GK pickup), allowing the GP-10 to do double-duty as an effects processor for any guitar gig. Included are overdrives, distortions, mod effects, delay, reverb, and more, as well as intelligent harmony and other great effects. The onboard expression pedal can be used for foot volume or effects such as wah, Pedal Bend, and others. USB Audio/MIDI Interface Built In The GP-10 features an onboard USB audio/MIDI interface, making it easy to record great amp and effect tones in your favorite DAW with any axe. When you use a GK-equipped guitar, the GP-10 becomes an enormously powerful creative tool that expands your production capabilities beyond any standard guitar processor. For example, you can record the audio output of each of your guitar’s strings on separate tracks, either processed with the GP-10 or captured dry for later processing. When you record unprocessed sounds in this way, you have the ability to not only re-amp the tracks through the GP-10’s amps, but to “re-guitar” as well, using the GP-10’s instrument modeling to change the sound to anything you want after the fact! The guitar-to-MIDI function allows you to stretch your creativity even further, using your guitar to play soft synths, capture MIDI sequences, and input MIDI data into notation software on your computer. BOSS TONE STUDIO and BOSS TONE CENTRAL Available as a free download, the BOSS TONE STUDIO software makes it simple to edit and organize your GP-10 patches on your Mac or Windows computer. In addition, the software provides direct access via USB to the BOSS TONE CENTRAL website, which offers a continually growing collection of free, ready-to-play GP-10 patches created by some of the world’s top guitarists. GK Pickup Options for the GP-10 Depending on your needs, the GP-10 is available by itself (GP-10S), or with a Roland GK-3 Divided Pickup and 13-pin cable included in the box (GP-10GK). If you already have a GK-3 on your guitar—or if you have an instrument such as the GC-1 GK-Ready Stratocaster® with a GK pickup built in—you’ll want to choose the GP-10S. If you want to use the GP-10’s modeling functions and you don’t have a GK-3, the GP-10GK is the way to go. The GK-3 is quick and easy to install on your favorite electric guitar with no modification needed. FIVE YEAR WARRANTY BOSS  BOSS GP10-S GUITAR PROCESSOR

          maxresdefault At first glance of the NTR you’re aware that it’s very special and unique – an intricate blend of art and science. What sets it apart from other Ribbon microphones is clear… 1) the RØDE NTR was conceived, designed and built right here in Australia 2) the RØDE NTR, benchmarked against the World’s best – sounds amazing, 3) the RØDE NTR has just lifted the benchmark up a few pegs 4) the RØDE NTR is affordable and has just redefined what can be bought for this price! Designed to hang in the world’s finest recording studios and performance halls equally as well as home studio spaces, its existence is a labour of love for RØDE. Every element of the NTR, from the transformer to the ribbon element itself, has been designed and created in-house at RØDE’s headquarters in Sydney, Australia. All with the aim of crafting the finest ribbon microphone available. Sonically, the NTR is capable of reproducing unprecedented high frequency detail and accuracy, addressing common criticisms of other ribbon microphones, while opening up the possible usage scenarios considerably. This allows it to record sound sources that usually require a more sensitive microphone element. Featuring a wide 20 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response, the NTR Active Ribbon Microphone from Rode is based around a sensitive 1.8-micron-thick ribbon element that’s suspended in an internal shock mounting system to reduce internal noise. It is capable of handling up to 130 dB of SPL, providing versatility in what sources can be placed in front of the mic. A ribbon-securing travel screw in included to help protect the element when transporting the mic.

The concept for the Seagull guitar was to take the essential components of the best hand-crafted guitars and build these features into guitars that could be priced within the reach of working musicians. Hand made in Canada, the Seagull Excursion Series sets a new benchmark for affordable North American made acoustic guitars. Seagull have taken a different approach with the Excursion series and the Natural Dreadnought SG features a 3-layer lamination of real Canadian Hardwood – Wild Cherry for the Top, Back & Sides. This lamination means that this guitar has a light yet incredibly strong top that resonates freely with a superb tone straight out of the box that is both powerful and articulate. Other features include a burn stamped rosette, semi-gloss Custom Polished finish, and Seagull Slim neck with slimmer nut width. southcoastmusic seagull bridge click on image to enlarge The Seagull Natural Dreadnought SG is beautifully understated, with the only decoration being the burn stamp ‘rosette’ that reads “Handcrafted in the village of Princeville Quebec Canada”, which is a nice reminder that you’re playing a Canadian built guitar that feels, sounds and looks at lot more than it costs! We sincerely believe that you will struggle to find a guitar that’s better made at this price. The internal bracing and kerfed linings are impeccably crafted. The Silver-Leaf Maple neck, too, with its solid Rosewood fingerboard, tidy frets and slightly rounded edges, comes with quite a supremely comfortable and eminently playable electric-like neck shape and width. Combined with an impressive setup and quality enclosed 14:1 ratio tuning machines, not to mention a Compensated Tusq® saddle by on the rosewood pin bridge, this is a guitar centred on affordability and quality over bling and on-paper specifications. Of course, none of the above matters an iota if it doesn’t play well and sound good. And that’s where you’re in for a treat. Aside from being a really easy, positive player, there’s a real strength to the tonality and big, open rock voicings sound huge when you dig in with a pick. Upper-fret lead lines also have power and strength.

Wire formed in London in October 1976 with Colin Newman (vocals, guitar), Graham Lewis (bass, vocals), Bruce Gilbert (guitar) and Robert Gotobed (drums). The first Art-Punks, the four musicians evolved fast from their groundbreaking 1977 debut album Pink Flag , with its 21 short, sharp, minimalist bursts of noise and melody. Originally associated with the punk rock scene, their debut album “Pink Flag” remains one of the most influential hardcore punk recordings and was described by one reviewer as perhaps the most original debut album to come out of the first wave of British punk. Included on The Roxy London WC2 album, Wire later became central to the development of Post-Punk. Wire’s musical evolution exhibited a steady development from an early noise rock style to a more complex, structured sound involving increased use of guitar effects and synthesizers (1978’s Chairs Missing and 1979’s 154). Through the use of their richly detailed and atmospheric arrangements and obscure lyrical themes the band continues to be a major contemporary influence. Without Wire, punk rock might never have developed beyond primitive three-chord thrash and cliched songs about tower blocks and dole queues. Wire were major catalysts in the shift from punk to post-punk, paving the way for the likes of Magazine, Gang of Four, Public Image Limited and Joy Division. Paul Lester’s book tells the story of this crucial transitional band, from their early days dodging hostile crowds at punk venues like the Roxy, through to their attempts to inject some arthouse experimentation and Situationist subversion into an increasingly conservative punk scene. The book covers their split in 1981 and beyond their mid-80s return and their various solo projects taking you behind the scenes with candid interviews with the original members. This seminal read follows Wire up to the present, poised as they are to come back with a brand new album and filled with a renewed sense of vigour as one of the most important bands in the last thirty years. If you even have a passing interest in the evolution of Punk, Art-Punk and Arthouse musical experimentation, this is a book that you won’t want to put down. Here are three tracks from the huge body of music that is WIRE. 12XU (1977) Colin Newman (vocals/guitar): “12XU was one of our first songs as a four-piece. I wanted to deconstruct rock music, to make it sound like it came from somewhere else”. PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT (1978) Colin Newman (vocals/guitar): By this point I was obsessed with taking the “’n’roll” out of rock’n’roll and making it very precise. It felt dark and mirrored the times. I knew that this was something nobody had heard before. With hindsight, you might say we’d invented post-punk. SHORT ELEVATED PERIOD (2017) Colin Newman (vocals/guitar): “When it was played on BBC 6 Music’s Roundtable, the lady from the Guardian [Kate Mossman] said that she liked the way that Wire have never wallowed in their past. It’s very gratifying when people say our new stuff is as good as anything we’ve done”.

Thanks to VS STREAMING, you can expand your I/O by using two STUDIO-CAPTUREs on the same USB bus without compromising stability or audio quality. AUTO-SENS: Perfect Levels at the Touch of a Button Unique to Roland’s CAPTURE family is the innovative AUTO-SENS feature, which makes it fast and easy to set perfect input levels every time. Just press the dedicated front-panel button, play your connected instruments, and STUDIO-CAPTURE automatically sets the ideal recording level for each input in seconds. Useful for pros and beginners alike, AUTO-SENS is great for quick, fail-safe audio capture when recording a fully mic’d drum kit or an entire band. Comprehensive Monitoring and Metering Bright, responsive LED meters let you keep an eye on levels for individual input and output channels and the MONITOR OUT, while dedicated input channel buttons and other intuitive controls make it easy to navigate the built-in display. The MONITOR OUT section features a dedicated LEVEL knob for control room volume, plus a DIRECT MONITOR knob for listening to selected input signals.
