Hi, thanks for the info. Really aporeciate it! I have a qiestion though, is there any way to set the input level? When i turn off all the effects, (by passed) should sound clean, but it sounds a bit distorted. I read that I should adjust the db in the input but i don't know how. Thanks in advance!
Hi there, On the GT-1 there's no way to adjust the input level, sadly... If you have a guitar with high output pickups, then it's going to drive the GT-1's input harder. What equipment do you use? Cheers.
Hey Adam! 😊 Yes, it does, atleast to some extent. The layout and set-up is different, and may be more manageable for players that doesn't like to fiddle with settings on the GT-1 itself. As you also see in the video, you have the overall Signal Chain running at the top, so it's easy to toggle through and adjust - it's a bit harder on the unit itself, atleast if you're not used to it.. Tone Studio also allows you to create LiveSets, for storing patches, and to import and export patches as well, or a whole group of patches. I've always done most of the tweaking and adjustments on the unit itself, but I can see why Tone Studio is an alternative, for sure. It will surely be covered more in-depth in some of my future videos. 😊
@@GuitarNTabs I saw how you were able to save / create and even share tone sets. Excellent. I'd love guidance (or more) in the actual reverbs on the unit. The tones seem kind of limited. I use the unit mainly for practicality - as a solo fingerstyle guy, I don't need much - tuner, and 2 different reverbs - usually a general one, and a longer one for ballads. I've bought so many pedals over the years - but the sheer compactness of this unit makes it the one to take on a plane :-) in case there is anything regarding clean sounds that I don't know - I'd love any insight you may have. Thanks again.
@@adamrafferty - Hey again! Exactly, Tone Studio is a great option for storing, managing and sharing patches! Sure, thanks for the request, Adam! I've always found the reverb models quite good! I really like the Plate model, and mainly use that one. For your set-up it should indeed be possible, to find some matching reverbs. You can either set-up two separate patches, with different reverbs, or, you can set-up one patch with assigns, that will toggle between two reverbs, depending on when you need them. It's smart! I hear you, and that's also one of the reasons I tried out the GT-1, and then fell in love with it! My band often play smaller venues, where the stage-space is kind of limited, so I try to keep my part of the deal, and the GT-1 was the perfect choice! I have a small pedalboard for it, along with my tuner, sometimes a Boss OD-3 and my Radial Instrument Switcher. Actually, I've recently purchased some new recording gear, to really spice up my future tutorials, and I'm going to do some videos on how to make different clean sounds, etc. That may be of some help to you? 😊 I can't remember if you've said it, but how are you mainly using your GT-1? For effects only with your own amplifier, or for both effects and preamps/cabinets. Looking forward to hear from you - cheers!
I'm just trying to make a cover and somehow put the music in that I'm wanting to cover and then take a video of myself playing the cover I'm wondering if I need something else besides the Gt-1 and my computer and of course the downloads I need it's not really easy for me to figure out I guess it's my attention span. 🤔
Hey there, Scott! That seems like a good idea - it's great fun! Besides the GT-1, and its drivers, it would be a good idea to have a DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) to record into. Something like Audacity, Cubase, etc. will do. Some good headphones or speakers would also do, and of course a phone or camera to record :-) I think that would be the biggest parts. Let me know what you think. Best regards.
@@GuitarNTabs hey my friend sorry it took so long but I have an Orange crush with 1 12 and 2 8 " celestion speakers hooked up to it .should I mick that to my computer? I hate to keep bugging ya I got busy with my day job . But the audacity should I download that on my computer or phone ? Dude I appreciate your input as you can tell all I know how to do is play lol.
@@Longhorn.Rock_Roll61 - Hey there! Sorry for the late reply... No worries, I'm always happy to help out! Well, the easiest way would be to connect the GT-1 via USB, without the Orange amp.

I would download the program to your computer, that might be easier to handle and navigate through. All the best!
@@GuitarNTabs well I learned some things in 2020. Audacity is like the 5th best free software I haven't loaded the other s yet but I see how to put another bands music in the mix but its still like geometry lol. Still working on it. My goal is to get another interface and get my daughter to sing an original with maybe a manufactured drum track lol but at least a click but a track and a bass track would be so much better. Well it could take me several months ha ha.thanks dude.
@@Longhorn.Rock_Roll61 - Audacity is great, and not too complex! I've used it as well. Playing to a backingtrack and recording is pretty easy, in Audacity. Excellent, that sounds like a good plan, and a fun project! Take your time, and enjoy it, it's going to be great! All the best!
Hi really enjoyed what you are doing my problem is how to you set the volume for playing live. When you are making your patches in your studio how do you set your level when you go out live is it Patch level knob 2 or knob 3 to adjust your sound. When you hit a patch at home fine but levels are to low Or to loud hope this makes sense Thanks Brian
Hey there, Brian! What an excellent question, thank you, I really appreciate it, as well as your kind words! 😊 Your question is a part of a much bigger topic, also referred as "Level Matching", and it's comminly used when talking about multi effects units and its patches. Getting the volume/level of the individual patches to match each other requires some patience and knowledge, let me try and explain it. I always create my patches using a studio dB-meter, which monitor my output level from the GT-1, as I create the patches. I start by finding a "Target Level" which is the overall level I will match all the remaining effects to. It's important to establish a "Target Level" because it will ensure that the following effects will be matched to that specific output level. For me it's the Clean Twin preamp model on the GT-1, coming from the PREAMP block. That preamp model is my "Target Level". I've found that it gives a string output, and by matching all the remaining effects to that, has been great when I play live. Once the "Target Level" is established, then I will go through each effects, toggling the ON and OFF, while I listen for any drop or increase in volume. I use the dB-meter for that, but you can use your ears, to a certain extent. An App for your phone or a dB-meter plugin for your recording software is good as well. So, this means that I'm leveling out each effect, so it's level it the next one, because of my "Target Level". I never touch the Patch Level knob.. Because it adjusts the whole patch, and not the individual effects, which is what's really needed in this case. I only see the Patch Level knob as a "last way out" option. Of course, when I get to the venue we're playing, I will have to tweak a few things, usually during sound check, but it shouldn't be anything major. I'll get things close at home, then listen closely, at rehearsals, and have it all good to go, before the show. I know this is a lot to process, but as I mentioned, it's quite a big topic, but it's so important, in order to get the most out of the GT-1. I'll see if I can cover some of this, in future videos, because it seems to be a topic a lot of players struggle with. I hope all of this makes sense, if not, then please ask further questions, and I'd be happy to help out. Best regards.

@@GuitarNTabs Seconding this request, I still struggle with getting the different patches to play nicely together from a volume POV. It's really tough to be confident when one patch will come blaring out, and then the next is super quiet. A video on it would be amazing!

Thanks for all your GT-1 tutorials. I am slowly learning how to tweak things to make patches. What does the BPM selector at the top do? I've changed it from the 120 and don't notice a difference.

Greetings, Bill B. Thanks for your comment and question - I appreciate it, and thanks for the kind words as well! The BPM selector at the top lets you set the Master BPM for that particular patch. So if you have a delay, where you need it to sync with that tempo, then that's possible. The Delay effect-block features Sub-divisions as well, and they will acts with the Master BPM. You will only hear a noticeable difference, when, for example, the delay is set to act with the Master BPM.

Then you need to use the Sub-divisions, found when you turn the TIME parameter, in the delay block, all the way clock-wise. I hope this helps. Best regards & Happy New Year. Cheers.
Question. Can I switch up the signal chain and put it in my order without using the actual board and using the software. I want to do this cause certain pedal sound good before and after others.
Hey there, Allen! Thanks for your comment and question, I appreciate it! The effects in the signal chain can be moved around, yes. So you're able to place certain effects where you think they should be. This can be done on the unit itself, or via USB on the computer. In the Tone Studio software you should be able to simply "drag and drop" the effect blocks and move them around. I hope this helps. Best regards.
@@GuitarNTabs I have another question. Basically in anyone's rig you would have many EQs and volumes to touch. You have them on your Bass, Pedal Board, and the amp. Also the mixer board for the house. Where would you touch certain stuff and what should be left flat?
@@allendestine3406 - Hi! Excellent question, Allen! Well, the most important part, in this case, would be the GT-1 - so I would start there.

Sometimes I might play a little with the volume knob, but it won't really affect anything, it's just the instrument. I have never touched the Global EQ on the GT-1, and I don't see why you would.. Something has to be seriously wrong, if you have to use that.. I will get all my levels right on my patches - by leveling the volumes of the individual effects and preamps. That way I know that each effect/preamp is matched in level, in regards to each other, and that no other is higher or lower. Once I have established that, then you can always finalize things, when you go to the FOH/Mixer/PA. That generally depend on the sound-guy. That would be the general approach. Let me know what you think. All the best.
Hey there. Go to the Boss webpage, and find the GT-1, then there should be a tab for Drivers or other links, where you will find the drivers to download. However, once you connect your GT-1 to your computer, then the driver should be installed automatically, and all should be good? Make sure to have Boss Tone Studio installed as well as Adobe Air - that should do it. Give it a go, and see what happens. All the best.
@@magghot5965 I fixed it by using a different cable. Apparently the pedal is finicky with cables. The cable I originally used works with everything but this pedal.
Hi Matt, Personally I use Cubase, and that is pretty straightforward. I will have a tutorial uploaded on that topic, later today. Besides Cubase there are other alternatives, like Audacity, which is free. I hope this helps, if not, then let me know.
Hi there, No, it does not, you still need to plug in the power adapter for the GT-1. The USB-cable and connection will NOT power the GT-1. I hope this helps.
hi , all your tutorials are very helpful , in some of my settings in the signal chain i moved the preamp icon first and its more powerful, is that ok? let me know your thoughts ... thank you
Yours are probably the most insightful vids on yt regarding the boss gt-1. But man, for me they are unwatchable. It is so serious and your voice puts people to sleep (you sound like a math professor) and there are no playing samples and if there are, you should put them at the beginning of the video.
Hello Michel, Thanks for your comment and opinion. I would like to make it clear, that all my videos are free, they are made in my spare-time and they are made to inform at help GT-1 users out. Such videos, and topics, will require talking, because a unit like the GT-1 isn't Plug&Play, which is what most people think... Your suggestions are taken into account, and it's something I've planned for my future videos - as you may have seen, many of my tutorials are a few years old, so I made them with what I had available at the time... Let me know if I can help you in any way. Have a good day.

Go to the Boss webpage, and find the GT-1, then there should be a tab for Drivers or other links, where you will find the drivers to download. However, once you connect your GT-1 to your computer, then the driver should be installed automatically, and all should be good? Make sure to have Boss Tone Studio installed as well as Adobe Air - that should do it.
Give it a go, and see what happens.
All the best.
thank you for the answer friend, but the problem is the driver can't install automatically, everything I've tried and nothing changes
@@magghot5965 - Hmm, that's strange...
Have you tried downloading the drivers from the Boss webpage then?
Cheers.
@@magghot5965 I fixed it by using a different cable. Apparently the pedal is finicky with cables. The cable I originally used works with everything but this pedal.
I know it may not be necessary to mic my little Orange which is a solid state works great
I all depends on what you're after. The GT-1 can simply be connected via USB, for recording, and that might be easier.
All the best.
Can we change the order of the blocks around as much as we like. Just for fun.
Yup, the order of the effects can be changed. You simply drag and drop them, to the desired location.
@@GuitarNTabs Great, thanks!
what's a good thing I could use with this to record stuff?
Hi Matt,
Personally I use Cubase, and that is pretty straightforward. I will have a tutorial uploaded on that topic, later today.
Besides Cubase there are other alternatives, like Audacity, which is free.
I hope this helps, if not, then let me know.
I've had so many obstacle s like the last time I forgot to plug the mic into computer.
Take your time, and I'm sure it will all be good!
You'll figure it all out!
All the best.
gt-1 does not light up when connected to the computer via the usb-cable
Hi there,
No, it does not, you still need to plug in the power adapter for the GT-1. The USB-cable and connection will NOT power the GT-1.
I hope this helps.
@@GuitarNTabs I had the power adaptor connected
@@therockbeast591 - Did you have a jack connected to the GT-1's Input?
@@GuitarNTabs No. I see what you mean
hi , all your tutorials are very helpful , in some of my settings in the signal chain i moved the preamp icon first and its more powerful, is that ok? let me know your thoughts ... thank you
I replied to your comment on my other video - make sure to check it out.
@@GuitarNTabs sure
Export patches ?
Yes, we can export patches, using Tone Studio.
Did you have anything particular in mind?
Best regards.
This was very helpful. Your audio was out of sync with the video, though.
Thanks, I just noticed...
Have a great day.
You got some serious "essing" going on with that mic.
Yours are probably the most insightful vids on yt regarding the boss gt-1. But man, for me they are unwatchable. It is so serious and your voice puts people to sleep (you sound like a math professor) and there are no playing samples and if there are, you should put them at the beginning of the video.
Hello Michel,
Thanks for your comment and opinion.
I would like to make it clear, that all my videos are free, they are made in my spare-time and they are made to inform at help GT-1 users out. Such videos, and topics, will require talking, because a unit like the GT-1 isn't Plug&Play, which is what most people think...
Your suggestions are taken into account, and it's something I've planned for my future videos - as you may have seen, many of my tutorials are a few years old, so I made them with what I had available at the time...
Let me know if I can help you in any way.
Have a good day.
@@GuitarNTabs I didn't fall asleep
