Keith D. Hilsinger 4.0 out of 5 stars This video is helpful, along with the owners manual, I can get the effects desired. Even with the video's help, time is required to get all possible out of the Boss GT-8's potential. I do recommend the product for those who could use the extra help with their GT-8.The guys just keeps laughing and saying everytime he hits and turn knobs how wonderfull things you just might do with that. Lack of explanation, he doesnt even do examples with a guitar. In the video he just has a fender squier in a stand doin nothing.I dont need him to that.it doesnt help you at all.But as for anyone that has owned the GT-8 for awhile and has already messed around with assigning, naming and adjusting patches don't bother with this tutorial. This Tutorial does not go into any detail of sound adjustments worth the price of this tutorial. There are no demonstrations worth any value when the guy in the video actually does pick up a guitar. So, if you looking for help with different sounds, this video is not the answer. For me the best part of the video was the demo. I gave 2 stars because it does have some explanation of how to assign the expression pedal.https://kirks-pool.com/wp-content/plugins/formcraft/file-upload/server/content/files/162979eb7872e7---compustar-manual-2w8000fmr.pdf But there are no wiring diagrams or demonstration for effects looping. In my opinion this should have been a free video when you made your purchase of the GT-8. Plain and simple I do not believe this tutorial is worth the cost.It may teach you all the things to do with it but why wouldn't boss just throw the DVD in with your GT-8. As much as it is already. First I got to get the pedal board, then my power adapter breaks so I gotta get a new one, and now when I get the power adapter I can't even figure out how the thing works so I have to buy a DVD to figure out how to work it. It may be a good piece but there is just a ton of things extra that Boss never tells you about. But I have not seen the video and the stars I gave it do not reflect on the video this is just my frustration with Boss's hidden costs.I warmely recommend it. The Dual COSM amp section provides two discrete amp channels; you can layer and manipulate each engine independently to create wildly expressive sounds. Thanks to the Solo Switch function, lead sounds can be immediately activated — perfect for ripping through the mix. BOSS’s mega-popular GT-6 was a smash hit with guitarists, now the GT-8 is destined to become the go-to box for gigging and recording guitarists alike. This DVD is a must have for anyone who buys a GT-8. I have already learned to navigate, with confidence, my GT-8 and I am very pleased with my results. If you ask me Roland would better serve their customers by including a copy of your DVD with every unit. Invaluable toll well worth the price. M M.V.D.(. FAR MORE THAN A TUTORIAL FOR BOSS GT-8 PEDALBOARD David Wills has the ability to make learning far more easier than just reading word by word from a text manual that may have terms not in the vocabulary or pictographic knowledge for musicians in different professional stages.fairbiotech.com/upload/files/canon-photocopier-user-manuals.pdf My personal experience with this video and others in areas (software) definitely makes proaudioexp an excellent option to recommend for any musician that is in search towards improving their skills and making the best out of their professional equipment. At a proper time rate and full understanding in the easiest way. Highly recommended. J J. Great product! If you're new to the GT-8 and like it, this DVD will incredibly cut the learning curve!! An excellent product! A A.D. Excellent starter for the GT-8 I have 2 instructional DVDs for the GT-8, the other being the Lick Library Ultimate Gear Guide. I found I knew much more about the GT-8 (and effects, amps, and so on) after watching this DVD than the Lick Library DVD. This manual taught me about what the GT-8's functions mean as well as how to manipulate the unit to get what I want, and that extra understanding is really where this DVD scores over others. Highly recommended. K K.D.H. Boss GT-8 This is a very complex piece of equipment,( GT-8 ) I for one am not very tech savy. This video is helpful, along with the owners manual, I can get the effects desired. I do recommend the product for those who could use the extra help with their GT-8. M M.L.M.i.F.(.A.U. Highly reccomended I ve learned more within the first hour of watching this DVD; than I ever had in reading the instructional manual that I ve owned for months. If you are not technologically adept I recommend this buy. K K.D.H.K.D.H.(.N. Make complex GT-8 easy This is a very complex piece of equipment,( GT-8 ) I for one am not very tech savy. Even with the video s help, time is required to get all possible out of the Boss GT-8 s potential. I do recommend the product for those who could use the extra help with their GT-8. O O.M. Very clear and useful DVD manual The Boss GT-8 is rather easy to operate and the DVD just make it easier to learn all its main features. I warmely recommend it. The COSM amp models technology provides a dual channel configuration.https://www.revistadefiesta.com/wp-content/plugins/formcraft/file-upload/server/content/files/162979ec294aa5---Compustar-manual-1wshr-1600.pdf This feature opens new possibilities to the guitarist creativity. The two channels, therefore the two amp models, can be combined or switched during performance, with in addiction the support of the Dynamic Mode. Thanks to this function, the two channels can be controlled even with the picking strength. They can be easily arranged in any order. As regards distortions and overdrives, the GT-8 provides 30 different types. Obviously the user has many parameters for the editing at his disposal, so every distortion can be modified and saved. These combinations are organized by banks, each that contains 4 possible selections. Banks 1-35 are dedicated to the user, while banks 36-85 include presets that have been designed by the Boss engineers. Obviously, the user cannot overwrite them. An important behaviour that can be changed in the general settings of the floorboard is what happens when a new patch is selected. Normally, the new will substitute immediatly the old, but this can be annoying. In the general settings the user can change this behaviour, so that the old patch will continue until its natural end. On the left side there are the dedicated sections for the preamp and the speaker emulator, certainly one of the most important added values of the GT-8, and for the most important effects for the guitar. Each section is equipped with the switch for the activation, or the deactivation, and with the knob for the volume. In addition, each section provides some specific controls. Let's see them. The user can set also the size of the cabinet (original, 1x8, 1x10, 1x12, 2x12, 4x10, 4x12 and 8x12), and the type, the position and the distance of the mic. Obviously, we can see also the controls for the equalization, the gain, the Presence, the general volume, the switches for the Solo function and for the behaviour of the two channels. Now, the list of the available amps. Every one of the 46 amp models can be used for solos.https://www.taxiserviceh24.com/wp-content/plugins/formcraft/file-upload/server/content/files/162979ec6af9bc---compustar-installation-manual-6200.pdf The only thing you have to make is to push the Solo switch. It has been programmed with an amps variation that's optimized for soloing. All this specifically for each amp model. Every effect comes with some preprogrammed settings that can be quickly recalled. Use this button to activate or deactivate this function. Every effect, and its own parameters, is explained. The sound quality is really good and the COSM technology with two channels allows a total flexibility. All the controls are easily reachable. A good multi-effects at an affordable price. The sample settings in the manual are very instructive and cover all the possible contexts. Analog mode is really warm.

Sorry if I stepped on any toes. When you \nsee it in a topic it simply means here is another opinion on the same topic \nfrom another poster. Now go ahead, read it all, soak it up, print it out, and email it to \nyour buddies. Plug the guitar into the GT-8 input. Plug the GT-8 left(mono) output, into \nthe amps main guitar input. You have now a nice round \nroll off in the high frequencies, which looks like the natural response of a tube preamp. Then, set your level with \nthe little black knob near the guitar input of your GT. This means that you can use the GT-8 \npreamps and distortions as normally possible, but also your amps preamp as well, or any combination of these. Both the preamp and power amp have an input and an output, and this is how we \nseparate them. The preamp input is the main guitar input and its output is the FX send on the back of the amp. A power amps only job is to take a given signal \nand amplify it so that it can power speakers.gulf-rope.com/images/bulk_images/files/canon-photocopier-service-manual.pdf There are amps that are specifically manufactured as power amps, and \nif you already own a guitar amp with an FX Loop, then you also have a power amp as long as you have everything \ngoing straight into the FX Return jacks. A power amp has no EQ or tone changing features because that is the job of \na preamp. The \nmain reason to use a power amp is to get a very accurate sound reproduction being received from any inputs. Most \npower amps have full range frequency response. This means that all frequencies are treated with equal volume. \nKeep in mind that even if you are using the power amp from a regular guitar amp, that does not mean that you will \nget a full frequency response. The speakers that are used have a huge impact on the way it will sound. Most \nspeaker cabinet assemblies that are made for full frequency power amps often times use more than just one \nspeaker, so that it can reproduce ALL frequencies. A power amp section of a standard guitar amp will give a full \nfrequency response, however the speakers usually consist of only one speaker per channel. These speakers are \nusually only capable of reproducing a certain range of frequencies, so the power amp sound is not accurately \nreproduced. The top of the high \nfrequency range is usually rolled off. This gives the common warm guitar sound that we are all used to hearing. \nWhen you are deciding on the right output select to use, here are a thing to remember. This will result in a high frequency roll off, to give the more natural sound \nof a guitar amps speaker(s). But most of all use your ears and listen to what sounds best. FYI, in this case, the \noverall frequency response is rather close to the result obtained through a Line 6 Vetta. If it has a level adjustment knob then this can be used to make the \nparallel FX loop behave exactly as a serial loop. You want 100% of the preamp signal going out to the GT-8. This \nwill prevent any direct signal from mixing with the GT-8 processed signal, which is slightly delayed due to \nprocessing, and causing a out of phase signal. If you have a amp footswitch box, then make sure to read all of your \namps documentation about the Loop settings and switch behaviour. I think this is the main cause of people getting \nconfused with there amp behaving funny. Both \nclean and distortion patches are fuller and richer sounding. This is the only way I will gig with it from now on. Then \nset the CTL pedal to master bpm tap tempo. The stereo sound is incredible \n \n \n3. The people that won't benefit are the ones that go right down the front of stage. It is quite common to DI gear from the stage to the desk. 10m is \na long way to send an unbalanced line-level signal.plenty of opportunity to pick up some noise. The right DI would \nallow you to send a balanced mic-level signal.and your sound-guy would probably be happier too. \n \n \nIf the stage is small and the board is on-stage and close to my side of the stage, I'll run an unbalanced line from the \nGT-8 to the board. For that \nyou must use a DI box between the GT-8 and the snake. There is a way to loop in the GT8 so that you maintain your FX chain order, can utilize you \namps preamp tone and switch OFF you amps preamp tone and ON a GT8 Preamp.This is where you would use a GT8 preamp in place of your amps \npreamp. The tone controls of your amp get bypassed too so it is a fairly transparent sound. Level matching is vital \nhere. You want the whole \nsignal coming thru the GT8. A parallel loop allows you to mix in varying amounts from the FX Loop. Also, this is generally what I do and it works for me, it is not gospel nor complete.So, AVOID to use a parallel loop. Start with the little black knob near the guitar input of the GT around noon (and \nBEWARE: the master volume of your amp could be disabled now as explained above. Too much output from the GT-8 and things \nsound a bit harsh, sustain breaks up, and the sound is just not good. Hopefully it will help others \nwho might not be able to achieve the desired sounds. As it is important to have a consistent level \nwhile switching patches I firmly believe that as far as tone goes it is far more important to have a single patch \nlevelled within itself. This way you know that your getting the optimal signal through each stage of the tone \nprocessing. Then I add whatever else I may want, but I \ncheck the meter every time I add something. \n \n They are cumulative, so one level affects the next and so on. If you keep everything as even as possible it cuts way down on aliasing and \nproduces a more musical more realistic sound, you can play louder, cleaner, and have no unwanted feedback or \nsquealing. If your getting those squeals then your running the signal too hot. Once this is completed I \nthen turn on all the effects for that patch and check the output meter. The GT-8 allows you to check the output meter of each effect \nas well. Once this \nis completed I then turn on all the effects for that patch and check the output meter. This approach works and I highly recommend it. This technique helps tremendously in eliminating \nfizziness, clipping etc. \n \n A SIMPLE PLAN \n I approached the GT8 with a little trepidation last year (I'd wrestled with a POD xt for 18 months) when I got it but I \nfound it was really easy to get it to work right out of the box. I set it up initially to be just a set of stomps and hooked \nit straight into the front of the amps (I use stereo). After that it \nwas FUN to play with all the options the little beastie can give you. If your like me you \nspend the first hour or two rifling through the stock patches jamming out to the few that you like. So, you immediately start twisting knobs and things get either worse or if your lucky a little better.but still \nnot as good as you hoped.your becoming frustrated and second guessing your purchase. It seems too \noverwhelming. \n \n Hopefully, this article will help you out, explain some basics on tone shaping and how to get you started on your way \nto happy, educated, informed methods of tweaking. \n \n Levels \n It is vital to set your levels. The Input meter is the Guitars Input before it hits anything. You will notice that the OUTPUT \nMETER changes with the INPUT LEVEL adjustment. The Input Level adjustment is pre-effect but post guitar input. I \naim for the same level through to the Output. I suppose if you had a real weak guitar signal that you might want to \nboost it via the INPUT LEVEL adjustment to get a good strong signal through the effects. This IS kind of a crucial \ninitial set-up step. If you clipping there your fucked to begin with. \n \n Level Meters \n \n Never go above the 11th segment because that is equivalent of 100% output and very near clipping.The tweakability is a blessing and a \ncurse. But, one thing is for sure: If you trust your ears and keep on tweaking, then all will improve. \n \n I had a chance to play some more tonight. I turned up the volume on my stereo a bit to see if that would make life \nany easier. I tried turning the levels down a bit from 70% of full scale peak to about 56%. I started fooling with the mic sims and I finally read the manual. Doh!!! I \nthought that I had been turning the mic sims off, but instead I was just putting the mic off axis. There is a huge difference in the sound when you flip from off axis to on axis and \nmove the mic around. The first thing that I noticed was that the noise gate was at the beginning \nof the chain. Boss has done a good job with the gate allowing you to place it anywhere in the chain but allowing you \nto trigger it from another location. I set mine to after the preamp, but triggered at the input. Works well and gave me \na more natural sounding attack than having it at the beginning of the chain. \n \n I also moved the DGT (output simulator) to just after the preamp, since to me this seems a little more logical than \nhaving it at the end of the chain. \n \n I started playing with the pitch shifter and its delay feature. This really livened up the sound. \n \n This was really starting to sound good. Playing was effortless. I level matched all of my patches to \nthis number and they sound really good. I create all my patches this way and I have fewer problems with unwanted \nnoise and aliasing. They are experimented in this department; the mic sims are faithful: their frequency response on my \nscreen is close to what you see on the data sheets provided by Shure, AKG, etc. For example, the \nfreq response of the Marshall on the GT-8 shows a little peak around 5khz which cannot be linked with the speakers \nspecs; but it can be correlated to the freq enhanced by the Shure. Same thing with the other options. The more input volume you use the more \ngain (distortion) you will get within a patch. The Master Patch Level is best off at 100. When writing a patch try to \nkeep the levels of different effects close.so that your not cranking say the preamp and bringing the level back down \nwith a large negative value on the EQ. Basically, you want to keep a directly plugged in guitar to amp level thru \nthe gt8.or fairly close. Keeping it this way and at this level will minimize noise and the use of the Noise Suppressor. \nBy removing or minimising the settings of the Noise Suppressor you will yield truer sound and more sustain. I match \nmy levels by ear and by utilizing the input, effect and output meters. \n \n \nChoosing an Output Select \n This is a very important piece of the puzzle. Learn how to work with it, it will save time \nand some confusion in the long run. Some lack lows, some lack highs etc. Whatever the case is, it can be made up with tone and EQ \nsettings. Your \nlooking at a small black floor processor, it is easy to loose sight of the intention of this beast. When I sit down and \nlook of it, I think past the surface. I picture a whole room of amps, cabinets, mics, and a huge row of stomp boxes. \nbreak it all down in your minds eye. I would first find an amp that I like. So, I always start with \neverything off and then turn on a preamp. After I decide what amp to go with I usually do two things. Most people who think COSM is sterile usually \nignore the cabinet simulator and just leave it to its default which often times yields a bad sound. \n \n Then I go back to the tone controls and gain. I set up the gain structure first. Remember different amps have varying amounts of gain, so there is no golden rule as to where it \nshould be set. Once I find the gain I like I go back to the tone knobs, and get the sound as close as possible to \nwhere I like it. Here is the tricky part. The cab and \nmic sims are crucial to dialling in a good tone. \n \n I'm going in on the input of my amp, and I went through all the Output Selects and most of them sounded like the \ntones had a blanket on the amp. Mic placement will either take away high end \n(further away) or bring out the highs better (closer). We will bring the bass back up post \ndistortion via the Tone Modify and EQ. My new favourite thing to do this \nis the Tone Modify effect. I place it directly after the preamp in the FX chain. I am personally partial to the \nresonator(s). Here is where you can bring up bass and treble to get a nice tight low end and smooth highs. It can \nalso be done via the EQ as well. You can use whatever one sounds best and you can use \nthen a few ways. 1. to add a different character to the preamp tone by using light gain. 2. Add a boost with more \ngain for leads. 3. Use it as a primary gain source for clean patches.
