Is the BOSS GT-1 still worth it in 2024? 

Yes indeed mate. I would say good stuff always lasts... Deffo worth checking out. Thanks for watching 👍 🙏 🎸

Haha. I'm sure he does... I guess even Santa needs some inspiration for presents now and then..😂 👍 🙏 🎸

I'm going for this

@@ezeechords3578 The GT-1 is an extremely capable unit in the right hands, I know several pro players who use them as their main unit for live use and recording, it amuses me beyond words as to how easily misunderstood and incorrectly set and used they are by most, they are not simply for beginners as implied I assure you, I've spent considerable time learning how to set them for professional use and I've placed mine under lock and key when live particularly because of my tweaks I've programmed personally within it's parameters, I put mine into an empty boutique head including a likewise very reputable combo amp and pulled the wool over the eyes of countless amp and tube-amp only users, they are extremely embarrassed for mocking them I can guarantee you, they are only presenting a rough ball park via their factory programmed presets is all. I wish I was able to avail my personal presets, but I'm not willing to for any price because I've spent so much time on developing them to suit my stuff, I use mine constantly and it's replaced all my amps and outboard units for a few years now, they really are mind-blowing when you learn their real full potential for live and recording purposes, I use mine with a Freq Out pedal when live via a Boss FA-1 ...it's murdering everything ...and I mean it! ✅

Thank you mate 👍🎸🙏

Thank you so much 👍🙏🎸

Awesome mate, glad you're getting the best out of it.. Super cool. HNY 👍 🎸 🙏

Haha never be ashamed of your gear if it works for you then that's fantastic... Similarly I have a bunch of old stuff that just works... Years ago I had an old KORG pandoras box that's I spent hours and hours on... I loved it... Underrated indeed. Cheers for watching 👍 🙏 🎸

@@AlexHutchingsMusic I have a 1986 Korg DW8000 keyboard. I even kept the old Midi cords. I'm grateful that instruments weren't made companies like Apple or Microsoft or we'd be renewing our subscriptions and getting new cords every month.

Oh yeah man... pod xt hits the spot too. But the pocket pod, I'll just run my whole board into it, cleanish vox tone as a platform. Earbuds on, easy rig that sounds great and bothers no one!

Are you running a foot switch with this ? I’m considering purchasing this if tones can be achieved during a gig setting . Thanks

@@pablodebiddlybo3771 I’m running it on its own. The Studio Rats do a great video on how to edit tones and assign for live work

Cheers mate, glad you think so too 👍🎸🙏

Yeah man, such a cool little unit... Merry Christmas Mate 👍🎸🙏🎄

@@AlexHutchingsMusic You too mate, have a lovely one! you are a very excellent and fully honest ambassador for the great brand and have earned your gold medal in my book. 🎸🏆 Have a fantastic 2024 bud, it's great to be on the 'A' team.

Yeah, it can produce great tones. But feells detached from guitar. My MicroCube amp gives more connection with my guitar. Sold my gt-1.

Hahah brilliant... Yeah it's amazing what you can get out of these things. 👍🙏 🎸

👍 🙏 🎸

Glad you think so too 👍🎸🙏

You can, by using the buttons above the switches. You can assign you effects under distortion, delay, mod etc, and you can switch on/off by pushing these buttons. Think of the gt1 as a table effect more than a foot-controller.

@@jbjb9691 thank you !

The Chinese units are mad green with envy to be perfectly honest of Boss units...they can't copy the GT-1's magic....they constantly try though....and yes I know the GT-1 is assembled in China too....they still can't rip it off or they'll be spanked very expensively if they even dare it!

Hahaha Cool MAn.... bring on the Hutchings crew 👍 🎸 🙏

Yeah, they are mind-blowing for sure when used properly, not easy to figure out precisely how though.....mine slays everything for my style and stuff, grab an old FA-1 if able and put it at the end of the chain, but never run it into any conventional guitar amp.....stand back and be stunned and amazed.

The bypass is in essence in I think 2 locations within it, can you please be more specific perhaps?

You'd need to be VERY specific in regard to your question, they are several aspects to how such operates in particular aspects/parameters likewise etc.

Hey mate, The GT-1 is an older unit so not quite as fancy as the Me-90 but reflected in the price. Still an awesome little unit. 👍 🙏 🎸

@@AlexHutchingsMusic thanks Brother Alex!!! You rock!!!

ME80 or 90 ... The ME80 has the trusty COSM modelling, the ME90 got the modern "AIRD-Technologie (Augmented Impulse Response Dynamics)" ...

Boss GT-1 murders everything when you learn it's ability properly....and I honestly do mean everything! including the recent new Soldano Astro....FACT!

Murders in the sense? Good or bad? @@LIKEFUNK

@@shivmehta1481 Good only!

Yes 30secs if I remember correctly

@@ey870 better than nothing 🤷‍♀️

Hahaha, well mate, let's get those fingers moving, maybe with some more sweeps and improve your percentages... Just kidding, You always sound great mate...👍 🙏 🎸

@@AlexHutchingsMusic 🧹 🧹 🧹 I’m on it!!!

Excuse ,, does the me 90 have that freeze effect ??? I'm looking for a multi effects unit that has something like freeze effect in it
