    Dan, Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video....incredibly clear and concise. I wanted to be able to use a mix of sounds with my Blackstar Preamp and using the COSM amps....S/R On and Off .... Its a beautiful thing. Boss will sell a lot of these units just because of the flexibility and their understanding of what real guitarists need. You are the MAN.

    This was a very useful demonstration of the GT 100 which i happen to own.

  • @guyfromthatthing1017
    @guyfromthatthing1017 Год назад +1

    Video still relevant today--thank you! QUESTION: why (or is) the 4 Cable method better than, say setting output to Returns and sending L/R out from GT-100 directly to GA-212 A/B stereo inputs on the back of the amp? (you're still using the Preamp on the GT-100--and this is a mains in--it bypasses the preamp on the physical amplifier). Why would 4CM be better than this approach?

    • @Sam-lp5ly
      @Sam-lp5ly Год назад +1

      Es mejor cuando tu amplificador real es muy bueno y quieres seguir utilizando su preamplificador natural, si no es el caso no vale la pena en mi opinión.

    Im still using the GT100 in almost 2020 N i think im going to keep using this unit 4 a long time coz it really blows in terms of sonic achievements ...i also have a good old Zoom G9 which has tons of good tones thanks to its hybrid tube/solid state preamp section with two tubes (once they have been replaced with good ones)... But the Gt100 with its Dual Processing + an unbeatable PC interface (Tone-Studio) remains my Fav MultiFx unit -- Im doing this 4CM (kind of) with a ENGL 530 tube Preamp + stereo ENGL 840/50 Pow-Amp (3U rack head) i have the the ENGL preamp inserted into the GT100 S/R block N i can switch between channel on my preamp with an Ext. pedal using a TRS 1/4 jack cable (using the Ctrl Assign function) it works flawlessly i have also another tube preamp [Effectrode Blackbird] + an MXR 10 bands EQ inserted into the FX-loop of the ENGL preamp in order to get some more really cool colorations 4 my ENGL Clean N Crunch channels .....this is the best setup you could ever find so far.....

  • @tmonzo
    @tmonzo 11 лет назад

    First off excellent demo and thanks for the explanation of the Gt-100's wiring set-up's. Very helpful. Using the 4 cable method, your demo doesn't resolve the issue of changing the GT-100's "Output Select" from "Combo Return" back to "Combo Amp" when turning the S/R in the GT-100 on/off. I've tried to find a solution to this but there is none. The only way to change the "Output Select" is to change patches. You cannot change the "Output Select" within an individual patch. Boss missed this one.

    Great video and explanation on 4 cable and OUTPUT SELECT, BUT, no mention on which OUTPUT SELECT to use in 4 cable method. I'm thinking that if I have the pre-amp in the GT100 turned off and using my amps pre-amp I should have it on COMBO AMP, JC-120, let's say, and, now I turn the GT100 pre-amp on, and the SEND/RETURN on, should the OUTPUT SELECT be on combo return? Or does it matter?

    I love the dual amp tones from this unit. I recently bought mid-level studio monitors specifically for home practice using the dual amp feature. The only thing I do different is, instead of a 100 right and 100 left i go 85 right-85 left and it really seem s to fatten up the tone.

  • @gil123bonsai
    @gil123bonsai 9 лет назад +1

    Hi, thanks for the great video! The 4 cable method was never explained properly in the Roland instruction manual. However, I do have one question:
    I still would like to use a couple of my old effects pedals, I.e. Wah Wah, Dirty Little Secret. I've noticed on your setup you are also doing the same but it wasn't mentioned how you're hooking them up in the chain. The old method, as per Roland, is to hook them into the send/return on the GT100 but that's no longer an option sin the send return goes into the amp.
    Any advice?
    Regards

    • @sockpharmer
      @sockpharmer 9 лет назад

      Gil Marriner Take whichever external pedals you want before the pre-tube amplifiers and chain them together, then send a cable into the input of the amp...take a cable from the FX send to any external pedals you want after the pre-amp and chain them together, and plug that into the return of the GT-100. External pedals will be hard to reach if you're just using a short cable to connect to your first external pedal from the "send" of the GT, but it uses "tube buffering" so you can use a long cable which, gives you room to put it within reach.

    Hi Dan;
    One final question to clarify a point in your excellent video. Just after you discussed phrase looping, you mentioned you just hit one switch to switch between the amps in the GT 100 and your own amps pre-amp. Did you assign a pedal to do this for you? How is that accomplished?
    Phil

    • @robertomeirelles1995
      @robertomeirelles1995 5 лет назад

  • @AlTheEngineer
    @AlTheEngineer 9 лет назад

    Thank you for your review, perfectly done! I have 1 question, please answer it if you get a chance. I love the GT-100 but it seems to have very limited looping functionality (39 seconds or so). I'd be interested in buying an RC-30 and hooking it up to this existing setup (4 cable method, or 5 for stereo) could you explain how I could add an RC-30 properly and where in the loop it would go? I think I have an idea but I'd like some clarification. I'm thinking it will sit between the final GT-100 output and the amp return, is that correct?

    • @sockpharmer
      @sockpharmer 9 лет назад

      AlTheEngineer I have a Jam Man Phrase looper that I love and, this is a great question! If you are just recording guitar loops, you probably want all of the tones your creating to get recorded in your phrase loop pedal...If you do the 4 cable method,
      1) unplug the last cable in the chain (Gt-100's "L-mono/out that goes to the "FX return" of the amp)...Put one end of that cable into the Gt-100's "L-Mono/Out," plug the other end into the input of your loop
      2) take another cable and plug it into the output of your loop, and put the other end into the return of the amp.
      You can do this same process for a stereo sound if you have a phrase looper with two inputs and outputs. You'll just take one of the outputs from the loop pedal to another speaker system.

    • @AlTheEngineer
      @AlTheEngineer 9 лет назад

      Thank you so much for the reply! I have the GT-100 now and I haven't yet purchased or connected the looper! Will certainly be following your guide when I do so! I appreciate your time!

  • @deeseen3495
    @deeseen3495 11 лет назад

    Hello Dan
    Would you not say that the sound suffers and loses quality even more by the 4 cable method in this case because of the extra AD/DA conversion that you need to do to bring the audio signal back into the GT100 for a second time?

  • @MattMitrisMGM
    @MattMitrisMGM 7 лет назад

    Hello,
    I have a question in regards to setting up and using Midi capabilities with a midi controllable amp head.
    My plan is to plug my guitar directly into my amp head (Revv Generator 100). Then using the midi ins and outs on both the GT100 and the Revv head. I would not purchase the GT 100 for distortion or gain boosts, rather I would use it for switching my whole rig (channels and other features on the amp) and adding delays/verbs.
    So I would obviously turn off the pre amp section on the pedalboard but what would I say it is being plugged into? The loop of the amp?
    This all in theory should work, do you have any suggestions to optimize performance and would this work?
    Cheers

    Hi would you suggest in getting a blackstar ID: Core model for basically the same reason shown in this video: has 2 stereo speakers or just get a PA Speaker to go with my GT 100? thanks

    • @sockpharmer
      @sockpharmer 9 лет назад

      Gligor Vlad It depends on how much money you're looking to spend (I hate this answer haha.) I feel like stereo sound is better with two PA's, because they can be separated further than the two ones in an amp. I think people tend to hear stereo sound from speakers that are close to each other more like a blend. However, if the pre-amp distortion on a blackstar is something you really love, know that you won't get that out of your PA's.
