Put on your headphones! POV Boss Waza Air Review
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 янв 2020
- When I first saw the WAZA Air from Boss I know it would be VERY tough to do a good review of them... one that puts you IN the headphones... Anderton's did a good job and I had a few sleepless nights trying to figure out how to REALLY put you in the position of the listener... let's see if I pulled it off!

Ok, I WAS LIKE YOU, yes you! , who read this and still trying to make sound decision. I was checking every video and all possible online opinions for probably 2 days. I have red, heard about gyro drift issue and other negative stuff regarding Waza Air, but I took the leap. NO regrets whatsoever ! Giro thing is not that important, sound and freedom are. If you want best possible sound of your guitar through headphones, this is it ! no kidding. So, If you have paid all the bills and kids are feed, do not hesitate, in my humble opinion they are worth it. Playing along to backing tracks in any room you like is priceless. Exercising arpeggios on the toilet seat unforgettable :-)Trust me on this one ! If this comment helped you, please give me “like” below, I want to see lots of happy Waza Air users.
The amount of work and set up that you do for your videos is appreciated!
I have these. They're great. Maybe a bit pricey, but the best practice/solo playing tool I've ever had. Biggest problem is that I play so much more that I have to charge daily.
You did an absolute stellar job here capturing this. Thanks very much, I hope Boss gave them to you
Finally a real sense of the potential of this amp. Best practical review yet. Thank you.
Best, most comprehensive demo of these headphones that I've seen. Thank you!
Have never watched your videos...you are extremely thorough and entertaining. Thanks so much for posting.
Wow.. I don't normally comment on channels too much but I have to say sir the editing to do this is top notch. I couldn't imagine how much effort went into doing this so thanks ! Looking at picking up a pair of these and a video like this is down to the absolute core what people looking at this product want. Awesome job.
What a great review and video ! Thank you so much for the setup and the almost in person review of this product !
Best review of these I’ve found on RUclips. Nice work 👍
This video was fantastic and I hope you’ve had a good day. Definitely buying a pair of these soon
Best review of this product I've seen so far. Thx.
best explanation of this product , i have watched most of them , well done and thanks
Thank you for taking the time to do this.
Thanks for all the effort u made just to share us this experience. Btw cool collections.
Well done man!!! I’m not gonna lie, when it spun in the beginning, I thought you pulled a home alone and put the tripod on a record player...if you remember that scene, well congrats, you’re way nerdy too. Anyways, great demo, the best I’ve seen easily, with unmatched L/R indications. Thanks again for doing what you do; buying fake ear microphones is above and beyond (but a full tv studio that traverses multiple stories isn’t 🤔)....I love you. See ya in like a week.
Thank You Henning! That was a great video.
Your knowledge and skills are out of this world!
Excellent video - thank you! From around 10:20 we have a perfect demonstration of the fundamental flaw with this device. The accelerometer drift causing the amp to run away regardless of head position, which pretty much ruins those modes. Undoubtedly great audio from the device and perhaps worth getting just for that, just to be completely wireless.
Katana is a digital (DSP) modeling Amp. Same for the Nextone and Roland Bluescubes. They all use the same Roland ESC2 Chip as Platform. This Chip is also used in the new Boss GT lineup and in several Roland Synthesizers. Of course there is some analog signal shaping at the preamp and the power amp, but technically its DSP.
Great vid Henning, finally a chance to experience something like the real thing! They are expensive though and I worry a little about those exposed little wires on the sides. How tough are they? I have gone through a number of headphones over the last couple of years. Those wires are vulnerable.
What manner of witchcraft IS this?!?
Wow, completely blown away by the sound and the tracking. Definitely going on the must purchase list! 👍
Outstanding Job HP!
Amazing presentation, well done!
Thanks so much for the video I was really curious about all the hoopla now I understand why.
Best review of these anywhere.
This is just crazy! I hope you return those ear mic thingies so you make some money on these videos! Great job as always
I am totally keeping them!
Thank you for great demo. Seems like I have to buy one.
Great demo, a nice addition to my Boss Katana.
So well crafted, Henning. You were born to do this.
I'm just here to steal all your creative filming methods for my video.
well... now we know... and you'll have to come up with something REALLY special.... which you very likely will...
@@EytschPi42 I've been challenged to explain how all of that magic technology works.
It'll be pretty special if I can pull that off because right now I haven't a clue.
@CSguitars - I'm sure you'll figure out the tech side, but most of all, your video won't have Henning so it's already better...
@@StudioChimiel lol!
Och aye lad! ;oP
Haha Henning, you nutter. Awesome rig! This sounds really cool tbh. The reason I don't like using headphones is that 'directness' (and poor headphone out/speaker sims). I like how this sounds a lot more, but probably - especially with that price tag - still would prefer the 'acoustic' thing. Even though it will mean playing at low volume.
Hoodoo voodoo like BOSS do voodoo? Wow. Great video, man. Really got it across. Ain't technology grand? Looking forward to getting mine
Fantastic demo bud👍🏻
$425 is a LOT of cash until you see Rockmans from the 80's fetching over $500 on ebay and reverb!
I think these are well worth the money!
Great job! I bought the Diezel Zerrer after your review and now I’ll be buying these.
Wife is pissed.
Excellent review thank you
Love the review! I will just add a few things I love about the WAZA-AIR headphones. The headphones have Larger drivers than any of my other headsets. This makes everything sound better, whether I’m jamming with a backing track or watching my favorite movie. The fact of the ear cups are attached magnetically and that they are removable to clean or to replace at some point in the future is great. I agree with you the Boss really cheaped by not including some sort of case for these headphones. Shame on you boss. I think they should actually pony up and send all of the original purchasers a free case. Not only is it the right thing to do, it would be great PR for them. The app is fantastic. I would however love to see a version for my desktop. I would also love for Boss to set up a place for users to share tones.
What???? No case???? That' s a deal breaker for me. $600 & no case. Nup!
Wish the transmitter could charge by plugging into the headphones. Also wish they included a case. Going to wait until the Mk II when they sort out the gyroscope issue. This WAS a great review! Most detailed and best review since Andertons!
Stoked to see what you bring us from NAMM!
Great review. I have these headphones and they are fantastic. FYI RUclips does not play music in the background, it needs to be open, front and centre, so it's not a fault with the Bluetooth audio of the Waza-Air app when you return to it to change settings and the music stops playing..RUclips would stop playing music if you went to check your email or did anything else with your phone :)
Thanks for your video.
Sound is really awesome!!
Now my friend and I are dying to get it. It is totally out of stock right now.
On my westone um 30's I have to switch right/left in order for it to sound like the amp is behind me, it's moving opposite in the stereo field if I have them the right way. Another thing I observed is that you have way to many guitars! If you need room for new ones send them my way, I'd be happy to help make room,lol!! Love the video thanks I might buy some.
Very good demo! Thanks for putting them on that 3Dio mic.
Great video and great headphone-amp but for how often I would use them way too expensive (they are worth the money from a sound quality standpoint). But since I still had my phones on when the animals at the end part went on: How did you create that awesome guitar sound?!
I wanna say I say you in Hollywood the other day and I yelled out something random about your ehx video. Sorry i was loud hahah 😅. Either way your videos are great and thanks for the like ya gave me on one of my Instagram video a while back!
great review. Very close to the actual experience of using the headphones. Got mine a few weeks back and practice at home loads more now the dog dosen't howl during my solos ;0)
My dogs love when I solo >.>
To re-center, you can press both the side-head buttons at the same time.
The thing with youtube app not playing when you go into a different app is because RUclips only allows background playing when you have their RUclips Red subscription. I'm guessing any sort of music app doesn't do it.
Great demo, though! I honestly think it's the best I've seen so far. Would've loved to have seen your first impressions, but I guess seeing Vai and Malmsteen being mind=blown works, too.
Exactly this. If you minimise the RUclips app without these phones you'll see that the music stops. Spotify for example would keep playing.
They havent called it red for a while. Its premium now
@@Ottophil might be handy to look at the age of a comment before replying. ;)
Wow man you are a wizard! very cool stuff
sounds pretty well but the static option seems to have some problems, but still awesome.
Wow this is amazing, listening through with some Audio Technica's ATH-M50Xs and holy damn thats some crazy voodoo wizardry happening.
That was a great video, thanks for making it👍👏👏👏👏👏
First of all, thank you for the great informative video. I still have a question though. If you plug the transmitter in the output of pedal board/multi-effects processor, does it work properly? Does the headphone "amp" takes the effects well? I appreciate if you could give your opinion on the sound quality if the headphone is used this way.
You look to have a better camera then most mainstream news outlets.
You made a wonderful video. Thank you too much.
Great review ,subbed 🤘🎸🇦🇺
Its an even better experience if you close your eyes while watching this demo
Thanks for the video,... very helpful -- so is it possible to practice with backing tracks from a different app, like "Anytune Pro" where you can change speed and loop, etc... ? If so, I am in - that's exactly what I was waiting for,... Thanks
I believe the Katana is also digital at pre-amp level maybe a hybrid form
Amazing sound but there seems to be a huge problem with gyro tracking speed and then gyro drift. This has been commented on in other reviews. Wonder if Boss are fixing that (will need hardware changes) and thus the non-availability. I will wait a good while until this problem is resolved. I would also like at least a stereo output from the processor.
The usual 'above and beyond', now even including 'sideways'
👍🏻
I wonder how long will it take to any brand of Effects Units for guitar to add these capabilities to the headphone line out of their devices. It would be so great to have those in the unit itself and use them with any set of headphones.
Sound amazing, can't justify the price...... yet.
Good work achieving what no one else has been able to, actually let the viewer hear it rather than just telling us how good they are
Thanks, nice review. Did you experience any sound drift with the giro moving under its own steam???
For what it’s worth, this is the only piece of gear my wife does not consider to be GAS.. She loves the fact that I don’t insist I must pug in an amp to practice..😂👍🇦🇺
Great video...great guitar playing...can you jam out with other musician s in real time ..is it connect able to other players...
wonder if you could put transmitter into floor modeler output, use a wireless guitar transmitter like line 6 into the modeler input and stream bluetooth from computer so everything would be wireless and you could now use your modelers amps/fx? That would be awesome.
The input jack on the headphones is only to pair the guitar’s input plug with the headphones. It doesn’t charge the guitar plug and also isn’t a jack for cable.
I decided to take a risk and purchased these even though i hate the sound of electric guitar with headphones. I have times at my home where i just can't enjoy playing as i know it is annoying people. Over the years i have wasted loads of money trying to find quiet practice equipment from expensive headphones to small practice amps.
These headphones are a game changer they really do sound good. I'll still use my amps when the house is empty but can now enjoy playing at any time.
It doesn't feel like i'm playing on a stage tbh but it does have a really good ambience and tone even with distortion. They are expensive but i don't feel like i've wasted my money as i have with many many amps.
If you could link two or more waza together it could be really clutch for a practice setting.
Perfect video, my jaw is dropping while watching this
Well done man. 👍
Great setup,
Great video (new subscriber) - can you set-up tones on a Katana 50 or 100 and listen on WAZA Airs? My problem with these and the Katana Air (which I returned) is the limited adjustment of the FX settings via the App (vs full adjustment on PC/Mac). Do you know if we can create tones on PC then use on the WAZA Air somehow?
Are the ears/mics for binaural recording? You've gone to a LOT of trouble & it was pretty cool.
Awesome video
Sounds OK, I Just don't know why i would need it... Would be great If it had a binaural Sort of FOH Mixing Software for "live" concerts...
In the meantime whilst i wait for mine to arrive i have managed to get a set of wireless headphones with an input jack and 2 sets of wireless guitar transmitter and receivers working with Tonebridge and Bias Fx. I’ll see how they compare once the waza air arrives. At the moment though i too am wireless albeit without the gyro effect!
You have to be near your station to play with that setup though, you can take these boss phones wherever and only need the headphones.
Thank You Sir Tone Miester! Amazing Video! So if one had some special pedals' they could run thier Guitar into a powered board' then from a cable into these headphones yeh? _
I would have thought more comparable to Yamaha the 10 would be the Boss Katana Air? That comes with the transmitter (not an extra to buy)
This intro sound is just wicked...
Can’t wait for the day when you can use this with your VR headset and play along with a virtual band or link up with your friends and jam together
Umm😒🤔, how about doing it in real life?
THX 1138 played the clubs and pubs for over 20 years mate, just play guitar for a hobby now. Would still be nice to play together with my mates in a virtual setting, too old now to be schlepping amps and speakers up and down stairs anymore lol
@@PingCrosby1 Oh I see.... man, I would pack your gear for you if I was there just so you could get out again to play with your mates. Im only 44, and just hate to see people accept transhumanist ideology, I hate VR. 🤔 Based on my "expert" gear knowledge lol, may I suggest to you go get yourself a Steinberger guitar, a Boss Pocket GT, and a long cable to hook up to a PA? That's feather weight and would totally fullfill your most basic needs. A Vox AC4 can be miked as well, also very light. Cheers from Oklahoma!
I'm listening on my new iron maiden Ed phones, sounds great.
Great video, I just got mine and I am already confused about Bluetooth connections? Some people are having problems
5:10 I feel your pain there Henning 😂😂
Can you connect them to a PC like you can with a proper AMP + Micro USB and record sound?
What is your guitar? A Friedman if I read well?? I love this headstock and body shape. Looks like a Texas Toast...
Wieder mal ein kuhles Video, danke dafür!
Why did I watch this video? How do I stop myself from buying these now? (knowing how expensive they are!)
Jamal Mohammed
Considering what you get its actually a bargain. I tried them for about 5mins. and bought them on the spot.
The app alone is thousands of dollars saved on amps and pedals.
But you’re right on one point. If you Try them out you WILL buy them. On the other hand you will not regret it.
Dude, decent bluetooth headphones (OK, with NC) cost about the same.
@Sam Santana
OK, and? Did I tell what you're saying is not right??
Sam Santana I was reacting on Jamal and I meant these Boss headphones are not expensive since decent BT headphones cost the same and do less. 🙄
I'll be buying these for the joy of being able to play anywhere anytime ...... priceless .
Only worry is ...are the lithium ion batteries in 'phones or transmitter replaceable when they eventually fail ?
Warranty is only 12 months and Boss seem reluctant to elaborate on this .
The plug in is only to sync the transmitter to the headphones. Don’t plug anything else into it! :-)
very creative and fun thanks for making this ! you look like a good man who would give me away a guitar I DK it can change my life tho
Perhaps I have found a way to emulate the sound of this Boss Boza tech:
I use either a swivel chair or I stand, and turn back and forth.
As I turn, the lovely tones seem to reposition in my hearing.
Meanwhile my guitar is plugged into my Mustang III V2, set for comfortable volumes.
PS. This headphone system sounds great.
The port is only to dock the wireless receiver.
Urmergurd...it's the Future! And it's Frickin' Shweet
Can it play colorless sound like a monitor and be plugged into an Amp, pedal, or another processor?
I’ll have to absorb this a while but ... this is some cool shit!
Hi, you mentioned it is similar to the THR, I presumed you mean listening through the the THR speaker. But how is is compared on listening with the THR headphone out say I used a sennheiser MBAET headphone on the THR? will the still be similar?
This is pretty much THE perfect practice solution for me. But that price is just way to high. For 299€ I’d buy it in a heartbeat. But 425€??? Maybe if the headphones weren’t so ugly. But like this? Nah...
By the way, the audio stopping is a RUclips thing. When you switch out of the RUclips app it stops playback.
I agree. I can definitely see that they're great and would work well for me. However, I can't quite justify them at that price. Maybe around 250ish?
I feel like the audio cutting out is a RUclips thing, and not the Waza app. Anytime I change from RUclips to another app it stops the audio.
I am having trouble with the app. Its not really letting me select the different fx
