A grand total of 32 AIRD-powered amplifiers are at your disposal, consisting of 23 guitar amps and nine bass amps. These spot-on models range from classic tube combos to recreations of Roland’s legendary solid-state JC-120, and you also get a screaming assortment of BOSS’ high-gain X amps with MDP (Multi-Dimensional Processing). Furthermore, while each of the GX-10’s 32 amplifier models comes paired with a dedicated cabinet for optimal tone, this multi-effects box grants you the power to experiment with whatever combinations you wish. Finished with customizable mic types, mic positions, and 16 slots to load your own custom IRs, the BOSS GX-10 is a pint-sized powerhouse of authentic amplifier tone.

An ample assortment of BOSS effects

When it comes to guitar and bass effects, BOSS still leads the charge after more than four decades. Naturally, the GX-10’s arsenal of effects draws heavily from BOSS’ superior range of stompboxes, providing you with models ranging from the DS-1 distortion to the Roland RE-201 Space Echo, along with even more esoteric sounds like the Harmonist and the Slicer. Plus, 99 professionally curated presets come loaded in for studio-grade sounds right out of the box.

Configurable controls and touchscreen workflow 

The GX-10’s intuitive workflow is engineered for instantly accessible operation for pros and beginners alike, all thanks to its intuitive LCD. From navigating presets to editing in-depth amplifier parameters, this screen’s drag, drop, and tap screen controls seamlessly integrate with the GX-10’s physical knobs for an effortless hybrid workflow. Three modes of operation are at your disposal (up/down, bank/number, and manual); discerning players may prefer to craft their own control schemes using the GX-10’s ability to create up to 20 sets of assignable control configurations. What’s more, the GX-10’s powerful and easy-to-operate assign matrix allows you to assign any parameter you wish to a footswitch or the built-in expression pedal for control schemes perfectly tailored to your playing style. You can even experiment with creative sources like the Virtual Pedal, Wave Pedal, input signal, and MIDI for vibrant and dynamic effects exploration.

All-encompassing connectivity  

Whether you’re burning down the house onstage or recording your next single in your bedroom studio, the GX-10’s comprehensive connectivity is happy to oblige. Both stereo and mono outputs are available to slot into any setup, and players picky about their pedal placement will be sure to appreciate the GX-10’s onboard effects loop. Access enhanced MIDI data transfer and deeper editing capabilities with the GX-10’s USB-C functionality — a feature that also transforms the GX-10 into a top-class recording interface! Finally, BOSS’s optional BT-DUAL Bluetooth adapter offers wireless music streaming and easy editing through the BOSS Tone Studio mobile appe

What BOSS Says...

Players everywhere love the GX-100 for its streamlined design, free-flowing interface, and high-quality tones. Armed with the core GX-100 engine, the compact GX-10 brings you the same inspiring experience in an even more portable footprint. You get loads of AIRD amps and effects for covering every style, plus speedy sound building with the intuitive color touch display and panel knobs. Adding in multi-mode footswitches, an integrated expression pedal, and USB audio connectivity, the GX-10 seamlessly transitions from nightly stage performing to desktop recording, song creation, and daily practice sessions.

No-Compromise Sound Quality

The GX-10 brings you a universe of ultra-responsive BOSS tone processing in a travel-ready size. Take on every playing situation with 23 guitar amps and nine bass amps, including high-gain X-Ultra, X-Optima, and X-Titan types crafted with our latest technologies. And let your imagination run wild with 170 effects, including overdrives and distortions, mod effects, delays, and reverbs, plus dedicated bass effects and BOSS classics like Slow Gear, Octave, Slicer, and more.

Build Great Sounds Fast 

The GX-10 enables fast sound creation with its inviting color touch display and four dynamic parameter knobs. Assign up to two amps and 15 effects in each memory. Create serial or parallel effect routings and change the order by dragging blocks with a finger on the screen. And patch in your go-to external pedals with the send/return loop. BOSS Tone Studio takes things even further, allowing you to edit sounds and load IRs from your computer or wirelessly tweak tones via our optional Bluetooth adaptor and the mobile version of the app.

Flexible Real-Time Command

Packing clever control options into a minimal layout, the GX-10 gives you powerful tools for real-time sound adjustment while performing. Versatile control modes provide maximum flexibility with just three footswitches. The expression pedal toggles between volume and wah and activates the tuner when you pull the pedal back. But you can customize it to control nearly anything you want with the GX-10’s assign matrix. Up/Down Mode—Simplify your rig by scrolling through memories one at a time. Set up basic memories for clean, crunch rhythm, and lead sounds. Or load up the 66 banks and 198 user memories with custom sounds for your set list and tap through them sequentially on stage. Manual Mode—This reconfigures the footswitches to control three user-assignable targets. Use them like a pedalboard to turn effects on/off or kick in a solo boost. Or go deeper by changing up to 20 assignable parameters with just one press. Bank/Number Mode—This mode allows you to select memories within banks. It also unlocks the Current Number function, providing access to one or more parameters by pressing the switch for the currently loaded memory. Using this function, you can extend your tonal options for each memory with a solo boost, delay effect, or anything else you’d like to assign.

Organize and Record 

In addition to editing, BOSS Tone Studio allows you to organize GX-10 sounds into Livesets for different gigs and playing situations. You can also access BOSS Tone Exchange within the app to download professionally created sounds and share GX-10 Livesets with the global BOSS community. GX-100 Livesets are fully compatible with the GX-10 as well. In addition, there’s a built-in USB-C audio interface for capturing high-quality guitar tones in music production apps on computers and mobile devices.
