Free Boss Katana Dual Single Coil/ Humbucker Live Set.

[@marinotomas]

I'm not exaggerating when I say that Paul's videos are the reason I bought a Boss Katana. It's been a long time since I've been this happy with a new purchase. The wonderful tones I heard in these videos are exactly what I now have in my home. Thank you so much, Paul.

[@bretspencer]

Ditto, except Paul also convinced me to buy a GT1000 Core, IR-200, and Keeley Compressor...please make it stop...lol. 🤘

[@imoffendedthatyouareoffended]

I didn’t buy it because of him, in fact I’m new here but I got a boss katana mk2 50 watt about 3 months ago and just 2 days ago I got a boss katana air. I absolutely love boss katanas now. Even the air has such a great quality of sound and let’s me use a back track so I leave it wirelessly plugged into my schecter c-1 platinum fr/s and it’s amazing. I can import sets from my main amp straight to the air and I can use my phone to control it. Picking up my guitar turns it on, putting it back down it turns off after a minute. But the real thing that matters is sound and even though the air isn’t as robust with effects at one time like the mk2 it’s become my personal favorite amp now. I leave my mk2 in my studio and I use my air in my room. I lay in bed 20 feet away from the amp and just have fun while I watch tv or KZbin or while I play with a backing track. The 50 is still more superior but damn that tiny amp sounds incredible and is incredible. I’d only recommend it on sale. I don’t think it’s worth 500$ I got it on sale for 379 and that’s probably about as much as it should be sold for. That mk2 I have is white and cost only 300$

[@anthonynicholls3990]

Paul, you’re an absolute hero! I’ve learnt so much about my Katana through your videos. I’ll be trying the single coil tones this week, thank you so much ❤

[@thomasdemartino6109]

Paul, I just wanted to thank you for touching on the one thing that’s always frustrated me about playing gigs with my Fender Nashville Power Tele and Music Man JP-15, as I’ve hesitated to bring my Katana MkII to a gig because I really couldn’t find a more customized setting until now. I feel that it would be overkill to bring both the amp, along with my GT-1000, which I took the time to do this for different instruments anyway. Part of me wishes that Boss would allow you to upload a couple of my GT-1000 patches into the Katana MkII. We both know all the effects wouldn’t align. Anyway, thanks for this. Tom D.

[@malcolmporter5987]

Many thanks Paul ! As a new Katana Artist mk2 owner your timing is impeccable and you're expertise is appreciated. 👍

[@shalomshalom735]

Love it !!!! I adore your work. Thank you so much for doing this and giving it free. I can't appreciate you enough. THANK YOU !!

[@dreamscuba]

Great video Paul. I really like your videos on the Katana. I found these a few weeks after getting my Mk II in 2020. You really help to open up the possibilities with this amp. Thank you.

[@stephenrobinson6108]

That humbucker clean tone is gorgeous!

[@pads-zr9ln]

Thanks a lot, loving thr single coil tones, the vintage fender is still my favorite to use

[@chriswalton3383]

Thank you for making these Boss katana video's especially with free downloadable patches. I don't know of anyone else making these video's, so thank Paul. I would love to see someone do a video on how to get a great modern metal tone. I do have my own and can't find any patches I likbetter than my own patch. But their are some thing I'd love to know how to do in terms of get a particular sound. thanks again a mate.👍👍👍

[@19P77]

Paul, you are amazing, thanks for this video.

[@gobodega5226]

The clean Single Coil Patches are great also work fine with the Katana Go. Thanks great stuff 👌

[@TheStudioRats]

Good to know!

[@chriswalton3383]

I only just found out today that theirs a new tone studio update Ver 2.01 is for the 50MK2. I can't remember if its only for the mk2 or if it spans across them all. It made improvements to the HM-2 and Metal core. It came out September this year. I thought if people didn't know like me, they'd appreciate being told.👍👍

[@phoenix81293]

i love the clean one, just added to my collection

[@Matthew_Scan]

Nice fast playing there I wish my fingers would move that fast

[@otccreations]

Is there a chance you will release these for the original Katana 50?

[@aristocaster]

If i remember right, all those tones works on Katana Mark I too.

[@aristocaster]

No, that was not true, Mark I sounds work on Mark II, not other way around.

[@thomaskihr329]

Really another great video Paul! I just got my Katana 100 mk2 a few days ago and started to try things out today. Unfortunately i can't achieve to dial in that great and clear tone (either clean oder distorted) i hear when i watch your videos. Especially with the overdrive tones there i get this annoying hiss and humming and furthermore when recording t daw via usb the incoming signal is really pretty low. Any suggestions on that except the Noise Suppressor - or is that the key? Many thanks if i could get a bit of help ;)

[@marcopanetta3510]

I have a question I need to connect my boss Katana MKII head + cabinet to my computer, via usb I access the software and ok. But is there a way to make me hear the katana coming out of the monitor speakers, with miking simulation and the real cabinet stays silent? Or do I really need a Reactive Loadbox+

[@johnoakleymusic]

Brilliant as always. You guys are the best! Well deserved to get a request like that. One question, why do you mic up the katana sometimes instead of using the usb out for recording please?

[@TheStudioRats]

Cheers John. I do normally use the usb for recording but I thought this time I’d mic up the Katana to show how the Katana will sound live.

[@johnoakleymusic]

@@TheStudioRats I recorded this kzbin.info_3-0LkShLM8?feature=share this week on my GX100 I bought after watching your videos then ended up buying a Katana 100 mk2 because of how great you get it to sound. I’ve learned so much from your channel, my wife’s sick of my obsession with watching your videos. Please keep up the good work and if you ever spot a cheap Centaur gold let me know 🤣😂that video you did was ace

[@aristocaster]

Excellent

[@slashtrio]

Hi Paul, I’m new to your channel and really enjoying it. You have really inspired me to pick up a boss katana. I mentioned in another recent post that I’m a home rocker that keeps things at low volume. I play les Paul’s and tent to like crunch tones and a bit higher gain sound - maybe like a slash style gain - nothing super high gain. At any rate I have been impressed with the tones you’re getting and some of the patches you have created. Would you recommend the Katana 50 mark II for home use? Does that one come with a foot switch. I also have a Friedman penal like yours (actual to the BEOD deluxe) which seems to be a good option for this amp. Basically I just want to make sure I get the best version for what I do. I play at home and often ply to backing tracks and such. Does the software for the katana work on IOS/ phone? I currently use the old version of the Yamaha THR10 but want to try something new. Thanks!

[@thomasross785]

Great stuff. Will the single coil patches work the same on split coils or will they need tweeked?

[@rockermonkey9366]

Really dig this channel

[@rnarizona9686]

I haven't upgraded the firmware on my MKII, 100W, because it was such a hassle for me the last time. Will my amp be able to use these patches?

[@justanother2day]

I tried to export the liveset to my 100mkii and it hangs up every time at 50% - any ideas? The tones sound great!

[@retiredguyadventures6211]

Newb question, would these "or any" humbucker patches work ok with a HSS strat set on the bridge humbucker?

[@TheStudioRats]

Yes

Great ! Could you create a THE CURE PACK please 🙏🏻 ?

[@peterdegoeij6234]

Great... is it possible to use them on the mk1 katana?

[@TheStudioRats]

I’m afraid not Peter, this will only work on the mk2

[@MrMhidalgo]

Downloaded the patches from the above link but Paul says in the above video that the first patch is called 'single coil lead' but the liveset that downloaded calls it 'Mayer Tone'?? Have I got the wrong Liveset?

[@mikedreucci4236]

I went to Boss tone exchange and hit download. How do I find the file? I’m using Librarian app on Android phone. Can I import a tsl? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

[@doctoribanez]

Dumb question probably but can the boss tone exchange website work with a phone using the librarian app?

[@TheStudioRats]

Not a dumb question at all. Give it a go let me know if it works

[@johnoakleymusic]

No way of using the librarian app direct to a katana mk2 though is there without usb to laptop? I got the Bluetooth module for my gx100 but couldn’t see a way of using the amp without a usb cable

[@doctoribanez]

@@johnoakleymusic I use my phone with a usbc to usbb cable. I have downloaded other patches off the web just haven't tried the boss website. Maybe I misunderstood what you said but if so my bad

[@johnoakleymusic]

@@doctoribanez suspect youre using android phone then. Doubt apple will allow a usb c cable to work with mine but will be trying it for sure. Thanks for idea :)

[@malcolmporter5987]

Yes it does perfectly. Just downloaded Paul's patches and installed in Librarian app , running on Android and connected via USBc to printer USB with necessary adapter. 😀

many thx ..

[@j.thornton8390]

Thank you!

[@anthonynicholls3990]

Hi Paul, which setting are these patches created on, the 50w or 100w ? I find flicking between the two has a big effect on my pre made patches

[@TheStudioRats]

On the 100

[@tammymiller506]

Thank you

[@madhatter1789]

If you are only changing the EQ then why not set up all 8 patches for single coil then use the global EQ (under system) to mod the EQ for humbucker. You can then use one of the external FCGA foot switches to turn the global EQ off (single coil) and on (humbucker). You can get a momentry footswitch off ebay for £15.

[@whiskeywhiskeyromeo3730]

Don't go thinking.....that is not en vogue....😅

[@Sly90]

Someone please explain me why are these patches sound completely different on my Katana 100/212 MKII? I understand that i use a different guitar (Ibanez RG550 with DiMarzio D activator humbuckers) but I downloaded other patches too and they always sound so much worse then i heared in the video, they are not even close... Is it the EQ or what?

[@TheStudioRats]

I’ve just looked up your pickups. Your D activator are high output pickups with a reduction in treble, I’m guessing it’s pushing the front of the Katana quite hard.

[@Sly90]

@@TheStudioRats Thank you for the quick reply, I will try it out with a USA Fender

[@2000SkyView]

Nice!

[@hadeseye2297]

I have original not MKII, so it's useless in my case. I wonder what Boss has to say about that?

[@17YuNgA]

Likewise. I love the amp but am disappointed these MK2 patches won't work on my MK1...Come on Boss, surely some driver or firmware download is do able for those of us that bought the MK1 in droves, making it so popular, and as a company go on to develop more? I think you owe us that?

anyone use this live?
