UTILIZATION

After it is easy to sound rude in a few minutes, fumbling a little with all the buttons. For the rest no mystery, we must spend some time on a very large number of parameters to get exactly what you want, but that is unchangeable, regardless of the stuff
A big flat on the other hand: effects no "classical" (ie other than reverb, delay, chorus), are grouped into 2 groups, and can not be used at the same time 2 effects of a same group! Immediately this limit ... but we live very well in the end. Moreover, some effects are pure gadget (auto riff, c'te joke ....)
Another detail quite negative: 99% of the sounds of plants are zero to shit ... not necessarily very important, but sad for the grip because it is better to restart from scratch to be a sound , rather than reusing an existing sound. Given the number of submissions, they could make an effort ...
The manual is very complete (even downright off-putting), and French.
SOUND QUALITY
I used it alone, connected directly in the feedback loop for 6 months (to play the Metal). The verdict is mixed: the effects are very good and very comprehensive, with a number of parameters very comfortable. Here where the low is on the amp simulations. Much be clear: your GT-6 does not sound like a Dual Rectifier ... The GT-6 is true to the mixed reputation in BOSS distortion: it lacks a little body, sounds quite electronic. By exaggerating a bit you could say that all distos "heavy" end up resembling closely or remotely to a Metal Zone.
Since I use a H & K Warp on the outer loop, and there are no pictures ... my old distos sound like a tape recorder next to the 70s. The small additional investment that makes the difference ...
[edit] little comparison that hurts: I just invest in a POD, all I am sorry to have kept it as long WG6 ... Besides the POD XT, the preamp section of WP6 is simply ridiculous. Also add that the headphone output is also very poor quality.
OVERALL OPINION
First a value for money very interesting for those who have no intention to spend a lifetime to buy the whole catalog BOSS. Getting started is simple and effective interface and well thought out. At the sound, do not expect to go an entire studio with a GT-6, the amp simulations and distos remain fairly cheap. The best compromise is to my mind to invest in a good distortion pedal if you want a big sound (and not a BOSS ...), and combine it with a good amp. on the other hand effects are nickels.
WG6 is actually just a MULTI EFFECTS, that should be used as such ... for its effects, as preamp. Anyway it is expensive at once ...
If it all over again, I probably spend more time trying the equivalent models from Digitech (GNX 1 and 2), and especially the POD XT Amp simulation for correct!See less00 - vega-bPublished on 12/16/04 at 06:32 (This content has been automatically translated from French)>> The BOSS GT6 multi effects pedal is.

Settings .. one is tempted to say there are too many!
tremendous possibilities in the setting of sound, everything is configurable as long as you have time, on the other hand use is very simple and very intuitive, because fortunately also saw the possibilities of the beast, it will emerge not.
editing sounds is easy, moreover there are several factory presets for each effect (for fénéants) but for those seeking a truly beautiful, forget the presets quickly and pofinez yourself. it even has the impression, listening to some presets that they wanted to curb BOSS ...
SOUND QUALITY
The sound quality ... I read here and there a lot of criticism about it .. I truly believe that those who criticize have only listen to the presets and were not trampled to look themselves ..
c simply amazing. digital sound makes it perfectly (and more things can output type, it may be there also that was the problem for those who criticize)
The sound palette is very rich ..
just a little flat on some simulations (acoustic guitar and mic), not always very realistic but hey, better than what exists elsewhere, and with two more three effects, it goes very well
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for a year now and I do not regret my purchase and even if I want to change it soon, it's not a pedal to make the same kind (I'm tempted by a VG 88, but is not all the same thing)
he is really on top in this range of equipment is the third pedal and it is by far the most successful and most flexible.
WG8 leaving soon, he may decline in price so it is best to wait a bit but even in six months, this pedal will remain on top.See less00 - tiepPublished on 01/07/05 at 09:10 (This content has been automatically translated from French)See what has been said

After all, it's a matter of taste
Not that the sounds are bad, far from it, but even so, other overdrives and distortions are not very dynamic and biting
For example, the simulation of the overdrive is really far away from home OD3 Boss (OD1 and even, for having tested)
Similarly, the fate MT2 sound better than average, worse than the original (unless using a simulation-type fender, and touching up the equalizer with sub)
I find the amp simulations rather unequal (rather good for the fender, pretty average for the mesa, and disgusting to marshall)
Nothing to do with POD
But the effects are not bad and with great skill, you come to get decent sound, which justifies a rating of 7
OVERALL OPINION
I used it for over 2 years and then I resold for gain pedals (which I believe provides the best sound, despite the inconvenience, including Blast tap dancing for BTAC ...)
For the record, I bought a POD 2.0, which is far better in the simulation models
I would do this election?
Of course, without hesitation, to the extent that it was all in one with a wide variety of sounds and effects of quality for not very expensive, but after the acquisition of a tube amp, it's just a pity using this type of machine, if only to remove any dynamic amplification and sound "factory"
I therefore recommend it to a guitarist who needs an all in one not very expensive and not looking at any price 100% of expressivenessSee less01 - Edan91Published on 02/08/05 at 03:35 (This content has been automatically translated from French)- Effects processor for guitar.

UTILIZATION
Initially, its use is not easy: you get lost quickly on the wealth of available settings. But after a while, it becomes more intuitive. The potentiometers used for the most basic settings are very useful. However, if you want a very particular sound, we must go into the details of the pedal, which is tedious, always makes significant number of adjustments offered by the GT-6.
I especially appreciated being able assigned the expression pedal (and footswitch) and the pedal named "Control" in any setting: the distortion can be switched via footswitch and expression pedal varying the gain with it, or else change the delay time of delay with the footswitch and intensify the chorus with the pedal. You really feel that we can experiment with lots of stuff with this pedal.
The effects are divided into several modules: a module dedicated to preamps, one for distortion, one for the delays, one for chorus, one for the reverb, a man named "FX1" and one on behalf of "FX2". "FX1" includes some effects such as compressor, limiter, a generator of feedback, while "FX2" contains a simulation of acoustic guitar, a microphone simulator (De microwave single humbucker or vice versa, for example) etc ... The problem with these two modules is that they can be combined to each other, but you can not activate one effect at a time in each module: It is impossible to combine a compressor generator with a feedback ... Too bad ...
The manual is very detailed, it explains in detail how his personal GT-6 and what each setting ... Very complete, read in full and to keep at hand in case ...
8 / 10 because the use must be very thorough to get sound that is desired and for not being able to use 2 effects FX1 (or FX2) simultaneously.
SOUND QUALITY
I play mostly metal in all forms, from Machine Head Dream Theater through Satriani.
This pedal can be good for little that one would really look.
Personally I use with the method of "4 wires" and my Peavey Triple XXX.
I plug my preamp in "Overdrive" the GT-6 and rule on "external". My pre-amp is then used as a distortion pedal ... Although specific practice, and it allows me to push my amp too without being noisy, and this, by setting the output volume of the pedal to the minimum. I draw more than respectable results. Furthermore, as one can set the chaining effect, I placed my pre-amp (and other effects) that I want in my config '.
The amp models are good without being exceptional: I do not think the resemblance to the supposedly modeled amps is striking. It is well recognized BOSS sound: it sounds a bit digital distos in, unless they spend hours to set up a preset again, it is not to do ... While the sounds may be clear in a few sublime time.
The effects are excellent, though some are, I think, not very helpful (Ring Modulator, Slicer, etc. ...) but all that contribut to make this pedal a complete product. More needs to buy a pedal to 100 € to only use 30 seconds in a component; Everything is inside, where it would have required.
Like all amp simulations, the GT-6 finds all his qualities when plugged into a PA system or power amp + speaker. Indeed, while offering several "formats" of output, it is in these two configurations that I managed to get a good result, especially plugged into amplifiers (the lamp warms the sound a bit and it gives more dynamic, same for the baffle, which gives more body to the sound).
8 / 10 because the distortions are not great.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for almost a year, and I have not toured its full potential as it is ... Being able to connect to another controller (2nd expression pedal among others ...) can really sculpt sound ... minting a few hours of headaches with the machine. One senses the impression that this pedal is for the exploration of sound is very full parameter settings.
The amp models are pretty fair, this pedal will agree very well with someone who already uses a distortion (amp, pedals or other) and looking for a good multi-effects pedal. Indeed, the effect is of excellent quality, we recognize the brand Boss easily: it sounds very clean, a bit too much for some.
I find the value for money nice, but the distal (pedal and amp simulation) would contribute to improved.
I also play on a POD XT and these two machines are very different: You have to see the POD XT as an amp simulator (with effect bof bof) and see the GT-6 as a multi-effects (with simulation bof bof).
9 / 10 as very comprehensive and "evolution", excellent clean sounds, effects of very high qualitySee less10 - Roberto SongPopPublished on 11/03/05 at 16:57 (This content has been automatically translated from French)Nobody said that Boss GT-6 requires a good setting its output level, and the gain of the amplifier to which it swings its output stereo ...

Otherwise what is to the south (since I began using it as a controller), do not expect to do everything. There is the patch changes, a control pedal (again, a problem, it sends 127 when it is pressed, 0 otherwise. No possible trigger ... pity we can not set this up), additional control "under" expression pedal. Good thinking but you have to put all its weight to trigger the button. Impractical. And finally an expression pedal. It seems rather well. Although his curve is not adjustable (that said, you can play on the calibration of the latter if it is really necessary).
A good point I confers and makes me regret not to use it as a midi controller: The expression pedal. She served as the control for volume and other violonings and I was really delighted.

1 - live in PA (no amp so). Tendency to feedback, modeling but sometimes moderately convincing effects of good quality for the price.
2 - With an H & K tube 50 (4 cable assembly for use distos my amp). The sound improves as it goes especially for modeling and distortions that are not at all to my taste. However, the sound loses badly in dynamics. Maybe he should spend more time on set and be fussy but suddenly you spend more time fiddling to use and it is not easy to be spontaneous enough when looking for her.
That said, for the price it's still okay. For less than 500euros, we have a range of sounds admittedly difficult to adjust to get a good sound, but it remains very wide.
OVERALL OPINION
I see already some criticism that I may do: Connect a multi effect at 500 euros on a tube amp that is at least as much. I prefer to buy a multi initially not knowing what to buy as an effect (so for beginners, I recommend such products. The sound quality is not the priority when it starts. It learning). Then I bought my 50w tube amp and I spent distos and models of GT6. it allowed me to have a more homogeneous in concert. Now, I use the GT6 to control a g-major that passed me. This really respect her more. And since I use almost more than modeling, my sound no longer enter the GT6. I use it temporarily as pedal noon but he did not meet my needs in this use ...See less11 - badgratPublished on 04/19/07 at 05:49 (This content has been automatically translated from French)Oulala, pity for the effects list, thank you visit the site of Boss.
Here are just a few very useful features that other multi-effects may not have:
-1 Programmable effects loop

To create the basic sounds it's going, getting started is easy. To use the full potential ... it is about even more difficult. It always respects a simple logic but the number of options, parameters and possible combinations is so vast that it quickly loses its nick-nack! I had to take notes for me back in my patch! Yet I am accustomed to this kind of stuff (10 years). And it's not the fault configuration, which, I repeat, is very logical.
The manual does help, it is clear, complete and loooong ...
SOUND QUALITY
Regarding the effects, it sounds like Boss effects. As what the pedals. It's very efficient, clean, transparent. Basically it's nickel! Maybe a little lack of personality or soul .... But it is inherent to Boss. We like it or not.
Regarding the simultaneous distos and amp, be careful!
I think that we should not address this pedal and say: "I want a big distortion in the Mesa, so I choose vai Mesa preamp, trigger the red channel, to gain in depth, EQ V ... " ... and ... disappointment! Yeah. If this is what you seek, namely: simulated existing amps that you like, I suggest you go with Line6. You can easily find your happiness.
No no no. Here to find a good sound, you have to say that every distortion, every preamp, each simulated HP, each effect is an "ingredient". It's up to you to combine these ingredients to find the sound you have in mind, and this, independently of the names of simulated. These do's are finally navigate, and not, necessarily be a carbon copy of the amp or pedal of the same name. Ok?
Once we caught it, be tampering, and try to combine. And then, the GT-6 is a fabulous tool for creating your own sounds. And the possible range is huge!
I play mostly metal. And I am fully satisfied with the sounds that I removed. The big, bold, precise, violent! I can do without! I used to live in the studio. I even recorded 2 albums with by plugging directly into the console! And the result has left more than one in the c.. !
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for 5 years. Never had a problem. 100% reliable.
What I love most: the sounds, opportunities, adaptability to any environment.
What I like least: the color (black GT-8 is best).
I have tried many others and I must admit that there are other products that are very good. But I found the Boss fuller, more successful, with more sonic possibilities.
The report qulité money is excellent.
I remake that choice without hesitation. Except that now I would buy the GT-8. And besides ... it's done!See less40 - Head MinervePublished on 11/05/07 at 10:08 (This content has been automatically translated from French)Everything is said in other reviews. Time to move on ...

Simulations of distortion and preamp are varied, and one can find pure sounds. In my case c'set the guitar which is rotten and that keeps me from having a good sound. The default is that you spend time to find his sound, personal in several years because of a rotten guitar, I found no sound that suited me, far away.
FX2 bank is interesting but limited in customization, it was frustrating for me tree ... Slicer limited to a few POV 'patterns, which starts in autoriff testicle (riff altered since it recognizes a harmonic of the note played at Instead of the note itself, super ... perhaps have it like that on all els autoriffs shall we say), pedal bend useful to simulate electro bass sounds (the EQ is needed behind anyway). ..
You can not link some effects, this is one of the biggest flaws in my opinion. What a ridiculous idea to put two banks with different effects effects not treated, pfff ...
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for 4 years.
I like his strength, but the pedal is quite heavy. Its interface and its system of switch is very convenient for the stage, however, certain combinations are impossible, it's very frustrating.
I have not tried other multi, only single pedals.
The price today is super affordable, it decreased by 400% or something like that ... Part of what it offers, to OCCAZ not a bad choice, but not necessarily the best either, it depends what you search.
With experience I will ever not have that choice, a pod for distos, worst of simple effects pedals that I'm adding ... However, my gt-6 is fine for Mao, it's just when I have to lug it bothers me.See less11 - steffaPublished on 12/31/07 at 06:59 (This content has been automatically translated from French)Enormously to effect any connected digital ample editable on No matter what device
