  • does this pedal have good metal tones?

  • This guy rippppps !!!

  • *kills the guitar with metal black magic powers* yeah... Something like that...

  • 1:31 ' i'm soo god damn cool'

  • I got the Ultimate Gear Guides Roland Boss GT8 DVD. It's sick! If any of you want a copy. Let me know.

  • @INFONAVIT i wanted one

  • @INFONAVIT  I would like to have it... Would you please help me? Thank you...

  • lols....wish i could do that, :'' blablabla... sounds something like this * most insane shredding ever*'' yeah...

  • Does it have a looper

  • everyone has their own opinion as to what sound good . some have been playing for a long time so insted of ripping the new guys a new ass hole just remember back when you were new with all the questions . not really wanting anyone to know that you were new at this. all im trying to say is just ignore all the bullshit that they think they know they will get it somewhere down the road just like you and i did. remember the day when it all made sense ? like someone turned on the light. ?

  • suhr from lake elsinore!

  • and put your guitar on ebay!! GUITAR NOOBS!!

  • esse é o cara sou mo fã do robert vc é fodão cara!! c ele ate uma zoom 505 vira uma gt8 kkkkk

  • i suggest to buy better a stompbox and practice, the tone in this video is not the pedal is robert. in my opinion line 6 does a better job

  • @Andoni666 Fuck that line 6 sound wayy to digital fake shit.

  • Hi pro,can u show me how to save a gt8 boss individual sound so that i can save in the memory and recall back all the sound that i have set.Thxs pro.

  • there is botton in whick you save, read the fucking manual... cant help you sold that long time ago.

  • Comment removed

  • hey what guitar is that

  • im pretty confident that its a Suhr!!

    goodluck!

  • FUCKIN AWESOME

  • great pedal i prefer gt-8 looks more nice than gt-10 but , what can i do? thank cool features and excellent guitar.player do you have any record?

  • Oh common ! stop show us commercial

    shit!!!!

    people try SansAmp GT2!!!!!

    Or DamageControl

    A Best  dist here on the fucked planet

  • What's better, this or the ME-70?

  • IMO both have similar tone ... maybe even the same. Except Boss GT-8 has more switches :) So You can assign modulation effect, dist, and everything to each switch ... I can say GT-10 is more controlable device :)

    I think ME-70 is for money :) cause You always want to buy "fresher" thing ... :)

    Cheers

  • The ME-70 Is the newest of them, so the effects aint as updated here, but they still have a very nice tone. but here you've got like 30 distortions and 46 Amp/preamps. i have the GT-8 my self, and i've tryed the Me-50.

    My conclusion is that i love the GT series much more than ME, ME is for practice, and GT can be used on stage. i love my GT-8 i will definetly recommend it. but i ain't a pro either.

    The blues sounds is a bit loose, but for rock and hard rock, it sure does it's job

    (:

  • can I turn an effect off on channel B but leave it on, on channel A ? every time I try this it turns off but turns it on on the other channel, Cheers Graham

  • what's the difference between the gt8 and gt10 when you look at the sound?

  • best boots ever ;) Rob Marcello rocks!

  • i love it when they say something like that" after every riff, makes me horny

  • @virtualman111

    thats funny lol

    

  • "intelligent means that it's not like me"

    haha^^

  • so whats better the gt-8 or gt-10

  • Gt 10

  • gt10 obv.. its the new version so.. updated

  • something else to note - he plays through a JC-120 which is kind of what the GT-8 is designed for in the perfect world (if you can afford a JC-120!) so it sounds so good.

  • one thing i noticed is that is sounds horrible with single coils but killer with humbuckers

  • good point - EQ this for say something like active p'ups then run a fender type single coil through it the sound can be way off

  • ecelente procesador la boss gt8 yo la tengo y me tiene muy contento. saludos

  • a mi no me gusto es muy digital el sonido

  • 1:18 = o.O!?!?!?! WTF

  • maybe you just suck?

  • i take that as a compliment from a depressed toad :)

  • maybe you dont know how to use it?

  • nope i just have so many other individual pedals that are better

  • Ok :)

  • What??? you can't be serious even the GT-6 kicks major amounts of ass, how can you not like the GT-8???

  • yea i do too just a bit its just confusing so its basicly my fault but its a good pedal if u know ur stuff well

  • when he is on the 5150 part at 1:14 is he using any noise surpressors?

  • How hard is to learn to use this thing?

    And is it possible, lets say, connect it to amp (clean channel) and get all the distortion and other stuff from the GT-8?

    Does this work well live?

    Sorry for stupid questions, i dont know a shit of things like this, i'm just gonna buy a multifx and i could get this pretty cheap.

  • Once you learn the ins and outs of it, it's a great machine! I play live with it at all of my gigs, but I'm no pro either.

  • yeah you can ahve the distortion from the GT-8 bought it myself yesterday cous i had a cheapass amp with no distortion on it, bought this thing, perfect distortion ;) so if you think of buying it buy it ;) (mayeb a late reaction but its better then nothintg :P )

  • i hate the preamps models, the distortion sounds really bad, but the effects are incredible

  • your right

    if you got a great amp with a great tune you can use the gt8 because of its great effects.

    but i agree when you say the dist. and preamp models sound like.. gnar.. not really what it should sound like

  • I Agree man.

  • Do you have an effects loop in your amp??? If you do, I would recommend using it for all of your effects. It makes 90% of your effects sound cleaner. The "pre-amp" function is the only thing that is debatable. If you have an amp that has a nice distortion sound, use that and just use what effects you want from the GT8. Great pedal. I use it all the time.

  • thank YOU!!

  • Robert's a killer player. I've seen 3 of his clinics at Guitar Works in Greenwood, In.

  • which is better, the gt-8 or me-20?????

  • GT-8 all the way! I own one and it's freaking amazing!!!

  • He mentioned that the GT-8 could downtune a guitar. I've seen this before, and it is indeed true, but does any1 here know how to do it? and if it's possible on the GT-10 and if so, how it's done there?

  • on the gt6 i use the harmonist effect.set the direct level at 0 and just use the harmonizer to detune it...ez but sounds kinda crappy, but it works...sry my english sucks...hope it can help a little bit...see ya

  • Great Guitarrist

  • go kill yourself

  • the boss gt8 already comes with noise supressor, to avoid those crappy sounds...just press the master button, and surf through the options, theres a lot of variety on it

  • what number's patch is the inteligent harmoniser on the gt8 ?

  • great sounds & playing,the dude Rips,I play a gt-8 through a crate Power block,& 2 Peavey 4x12 Cabs,I couldn't be more pleased with it,I got rid of my Boogie & ALL the Individual Pedals,

  • hey i have a boss gt-8 but when i hook it up on my amp and put on distortion it gives lots of crappy sounds when im not playing. do i need a noise supressor for it or a better amp? just wondering if it only happnes to me

  • The secret to achieve a great tone with GT8 is to modify cab, distorsion and programm correctly the FX chain...If your model make a lot of noise you can use a noise I suggest to use the followinf fx-chain.. Overdrive-Pre-EQ-NS-Compressor­...it is very important to choose a proper cabinet set and mic... if you use the cabinet simulator dont forgot to use the lines-phones output mode....

    good luck

  • Its hot but VG-99 is way better

  • at 4:07 he says that you can use it to tune down ur guitar... did he mean like the processor can tune it down like maybe drop C or tune it up? can it really do that? if so does this thing have a normal tuner?

  • yer its just that u can play in like drop d on ur guitar while its tuned standard and the gt-8 fixes it and yes it does have a tuner

  • Thats Awsome! thanks dude!

  • When you tune down your guitar though, it usually doesn't sound the same as actually doing it due to the fact that it's digital.

  • 5:00 really nice!I like this machine

  • 8:04 sounds like Zakk Wylde.

    I love the cry baby sound!

  • 8:04 sounds like Zakk Wylde.

    I love the cry baby sound!

  • This is Sick

  • thats like the sickest thing but i cant really offored it so i got the boss me 20 which is awesome and very afordable but that friggin hard and soft hitting strings thing is sickkk

  • sooooo glad I bought this!

  • I'm using a epiphone g400 and a fender 212r will i have problem with the sound etc? Please tell me :)

  • Could it be that some musicians just don't want to let go of their old vintage gear and embrace this new technology? I think the sound from these units is a lot cleaner than the old equipment. What's the hum like from these units, and can they truly cut through a live mix?

  • Have can I get the first "Heavy rock sound"?

    I got a peavey 80 watt, Bandit 112 and GT8 + a ibanez. But i'm getting the Dime-O-Flame in the summertime

  • damn hes good

  • i love the delay tapping

  • anyone know how to do the tapping like at 2:32

  • also Schecter guitars are very versatile....

  • At 6:40 ish he makes the ctrl pedal a "momentary flanger switch" How do i do that?

  • Select Flanger for FX-1. The go to Variable under Assign. When you're at Quick Assign, select FX-1 On/Off. Then use the Parameter knobs to go to Mode. There you must select Normal. Then you need to make sure the CTL pedal isn't assigned for anything else (click the Ctl/Exp button under Assign. Then click it again to switch off the Ctl pedal). If you don't get it, just ask me on my channel.

  • i just got a jc-120 from my grandpa for free

  • lucky bitch!!

  • someone send me a message telling me wether i should get a ibanez or gibson sg

    please

  • jeez dude theres no answer:P just get the on u want the most

  • Ibanez :)

  • Get an ibanez, more versatile!

  • ibanez are better value and im gessing for gibson price you'll be getting a prestige modle which are exelent.

  • So wrong!!... actually Ibanez uses very cheap woods even in high end models.. like the Universe that uses Asswood...sorry....basswood... and a lot of prestige models use V7 and V8 pickups... so they 're almost the same as cheaper ones.... but it is truth that actually Ibanez are more versatile than other brands...

    greetings

  • It depends on what kind of music you want to play like SkidRoses98 said. Go to a guitar store and try some guitars to see what you like.

  • ive got a gibson les paul and mick thompson signature ibanez and i like both equally but i must admit the ibanez does look a bit better

  • i have a gt8 and i can say that it rocks

    all the efects that robert uses are true and you can find them in the procesor

  • yo how do i set the pick strum? like if i pick hard its like metal and if i play soft its classical? i cant seem to do that can u help?

  • First, you need 2 different amp models on the 2 channels (A and B). Then you push the on/off button of preamp/speaker. And then for Ch.mode, you select "dynamic". And then, with the "dynamic sense" (in the same menu), you choose how sensitive it is.

    Daan.

  • wait lol i dont get it can u explain it clearer thnx =/

  • Well, first you need to have 2 channels (with complete different settings) on one patch, right? The easiest for me to explain is to first click "Exit". Then you push the button below the button for the "Amp type" (rotating knob under "Preamp/speaker"). Use the "Parameter" knobs to go to "Channel mode". There you must select "Dynamic mode" with the "Patch/value" knob. Then you're ready. If you have more questions or still don't get it, just ask me (you can also ask me on my channel).

  • I had the same problem, because it wasn't explained in the user's guide, but it's a very cool feature.

    Daan.

  • lol thnx =p

  • i want one!

  • wow u`r amazing

  • Is the GT8 the Boss equivilent to the POD X3 Live?? And how good is it for recording purposes in like pro studios!!..

    apreciate the info guys.

  • if you want to record i recomend you pod x3 live, please check harmony central reviews, if you just want to connect to an amp gt-8 is better, also check zoom g9.2tt

  • if you hav the money wait for the boss gt10 to come out its gona piss all over the pod x3 live

    im not sure how much the gt10 is or when its coming out but it looks lush and you can do you usb recording

  • It's comming out in March 08 for $499.

    And I'm pissed cause I just bought a GT-8 two weeks ago. If I had known that was commin out, I'd have waited and got that one! DAMN! O well, the GT-8 is awesome anyway. It beats any other multi-effects by far in my opinion!

  • lol the same i brought a couple months but it is still good il probly start saving up for the gt 10 in a couple months time

  • if you want a gt-8 the price has gone down conciderably since the realse of the gt10

  • i buyed one you have 82 different sound i think lol but my favorite one is the screamer :P

  • lol, michael bolton sound.

    the harmonizer and the pv50150 sound nice!!!!!

  • THATS CRAZY MAN!

  • Hey I have a MArshall MG30 and i wanna buy the boss GT-8..Will i have any problem to connection,sound e.t.c.

    PLZ tell me..

  • Hi Alex,

    You shouldnt have a problem, you can just set up the GT8 going into the input jack of the Marshall and it should sound fine, it will sound a little better if you have an effects loop, im not familiar with MG30, if you want the best amp for it get a JC120 both Rob and I use them, very clean and loud, 120 watts! Hope this helped!

    Happy new year and good luck with the GT8

    Iain!

  • Yeah i'll buy new amp in 2 years..I'm 17 so..(6years guitar)Thanx for the advise man!

    Happy new year too!!

    Thanx

  • lol, ignore the stupid kids.amazing review great job !

  • dude, shut up, and show so respect to a pro, ya little 14 yr old douche

  • cool boots

  • the sound didnt feel very organic to me :S

  • By trying very hard, I couldn'n get the amp type like in 5.59. I think it is a fake and it is impossible to get this sound only with gt8(((

  • It might be because of your guitar. Don't forget that it's where the sound comes from.

  • Wow! How can I get the heavy effect on 1:20? Does anyone have a patch for that? This is amazing!

  • How can I get blues sound like in 5.59. Is it possible to get a patch somewhere.

  • i laugh everytime when he's like "it sounds something like this uhhhhhhhhhhh" and he just starts playing

  • lol!

  • JVM410

    you are right....a lot of POSERs are using the gt-8 just because rob marcello use it

  • Ye I know.

    I havent been playing for very long (im 13)

    But I know my way around the block.

    The best guitars out there are the les pauls and the sg's. SOON TO REST LES PAUL 2010

  • are they fuck..ya pay for nothin but the gibson name..dean USA's are the best..teh best necks and body tops

  • You may be right, But think about it, all the big names started on a gibby

    Hendrix, Eric C, Ask any rocker or anyone who plays guitar and theyll say that les paul started the guitar and kept it going for 70 fucking good years

  • gibsons are great but they are about £400 more exspesive and there based on 50 year old designes you want to get a ibanez or a dean there alot better priced for there quality

  • depends on what model you get. My les paul is better than any Dean and Ibanez i have ever played. but i do have an ibanez too cause they are cheaper, good for a live guitar. my gibson is fucking heavY! lol

  • how much is the GSP1101?

  • i've just bought it, it's just great, you can do anything with it!

  • great demo, i'm getting this for x-mas, can't wait!!

  • Me too!!! :)

  • me three!!!

  • me four!!!

  • me five !!!!!

  • i wish 2 =(

  • I think Herman Li would have a lot of fun with that.

  • podxt or gt8?

  • for me the pod live is better...the xt is good also,but you can't change sound immidiatly..with the live you can change with your foot without stoping
