BossVG-800 Virtual Guitar Processor

Boss VG-800

Take your instrument into uncharted territory with the VG-800 Virtual Guitar Processor from Boss, a next-generation amp modeler and effects processor for guitar and bass with Serial GK divided pickup interface. Expand your sound palette with latency-free, independent string processing, empowering new sonic expressions from your custom creations. Perform with realistic string instrument models from hot rod electric rigs to authentic acoustic banjos, and even combine sounds across multiple strings with the innovative Dual Guitar and Dual Bass functions. Explore synth models, add effects, and create the instrument of your dreams. In any configuration, the VG-800 provides the latest and greatest in Boss amp and effect models, letting you mix your live guitar input and GK-triggered sounds through premium processors for an all-in-one sound solution.

The VG-800's seamless integration of Boss's Serial GK divided pickups provides endless space for creativity. Freely change the tuning of each string without physically retuning, enabling instant changes to drop and alternate tunings. Using the harmony function, you can create expansive ensemble sounds with only a single note or chord. With an external footswitch or expression pedal, you can create dynamic pitch bends and other manipulations that go far beyond traditional guitar gestures. And don't worry bassists - the VG-800's dedicated guitar and bass modes ensure that no one gets left out of its vast set of musical tools.

With its convenient connectivity options, you can integrate your VG-800 into any set up, or expand into a larger Serial GK ecosystem. Combine your favorite effects with those inside the VG-800 with integrated send and receive jacks for mono or stereo signals. Add up to four footswitches or two expression pedals to switch settings and manipulate sounds, or connect via USB or MIDI for comprehensive control. Using the onboard Serial GK output, you can directly connect to other Serial GK gear like the GM-800 Guitar Synthesizer or a second VG-800, taking your instrument even further. Thanks to its integrated multichannel USB audio interface functionality, you can record multiple instrument models directly to your DAW through the VG-800. If you're looking to expand your playing with new sonic possibilities, the Boss VG-800 provides a streamlined platform for endless experimentation with cutting edge sounds designed to inspire.
