Some stunning tones ….. great vid as always 👍🏼

[@renevanderbruggen731]

Thanks Leon - fantastic tones !

[@mjones53]

Thank you very much for these killer presets!

[@DenisSurette]

Fantastic tones! Boss have knocked it out of the park (once again). Well done Leon! Cheers

[@jarrodskogen4180]

Awesome playing as always and killer tones! You have a knack for getting the most out of whatever you plug in to. Your use of the EQ parameters is awesome.

[@Nightbreed82]

Oh man, sounds AMAZING! I have a GX-100 in transit, can't wait to try these out next week!!

[@JayTheLane]

I have this unit and it is stellar. Really appreciate the share and work for these 💜

[@heavybrett-al4082]

I think that is the most colourful editing interface screen of any unit yet! A technicolor dream coat of tones.

[@begruene]

Hi Leon, these are really fantastic patches that I definitely have to test. Many thanks for your effort.

[@LeonTodd]

Have fun!

[@brettwalker52]

Great stuff Todd I’m totally stoked with the GX-100

[@LeonTodd]

Good choice!

[@carlroberge7535]

Oh how much I love you for putting so many time-based effects going into modulation and reverbs 🙌 That’s how it’s done!

[@LeonTodd]

This is the way :D

[@nigelsmith721]

The dynamic switching in the Divider is a bit of a masterstroke. I only got my GX last weekend so barely scratching the surface but nowhere have I seen this functionality explained until now. Cheers from Scotland.

[@jarrodskogen4180]

Got these loaded up today on my GX-100. Thanks Leon!

[@89ji76]

Ahhh, that spring reverb drip on every space echo repeat sounds so juicy

[@REIRBL]

Amazing tones! 👍👍👍👍

[@kenslocum]

Amazing Tones. Thank You

[@boogiedoes]

I love your videos, a very engaging way to gas about new tones thanks!

[@LeonTodd]

Glad you like them!

[@deanandthebeans857]

Boss have nailed the crucial midrange and valve-like gradual clean into drive transition that puts them ahead of line 6 etc, IMHO. Nice presets, btw!

[@spy662006]

Thank you Mr. Todd!! 👍🏼 Tax time is just around the corner and I have been day dreaming about a modeller for more than a minute! I am now sold on the GX 100 with the touch screen and ease of use. Thank you again for another ear dripping video! 🔥

[@LeonTodd]

Awesome news! Enjoy

[@oscedy1609]

Gracias por ilustrarnos!!😀

[@tomas_kucccera]

Leon, Every time I need some inspiration, how to create something new or what I hear in my head, I watch few your videos like that and then I make the setup very quickly i stead of endless trying milions of possibilities. Your a guitar tone engineer! Thank you 😉

[@LeonTodd]

Happy to hear that!

[@ScottGailor]

Well done!

[@sebrura]

I think the GX100 is phenomenal. Easy to work with, sounds amazing, and easy to achieve good presets in short time. Also, using bluetooth with the iOS app is super smooth. Poly tuner as an added bonus.

[@lamms6957]

EPIC! also, the bread and butter jam was pure Heaven (above) :D

[@Black-Viper75]

Hey Leon, your GX-100 videos have pretty much sold me on getting one. Great content. I'm on the market for a multifx board to get quality tones like I can get on Amplitube 5 but on a mobile/fly rig. I was thinking HX Stomp and a wah so I tried Native out for a week to get an idea of what Line6 can offer but unfortunately I couldn't get tinea that worked for me (80's hard rock and metal). Then the GX-100 came out and I saw your videos. Great stuff 🤟. Subscribed to your channel.

[@LeonTodd]

Awesome, thank you!

[@jeffersononetwo]

coolio!

[@MKRISING75]

Those are killer presets what a great job!Leave it to LT to make the GX super awesome sounding.I am very impressed with this unit! I bet you could gig with the GX if you accidentally grabbed the wrong case and opened it up and it was the GX and not you’re FM9😆🤟🏻

[@LeonTodd]

Definitely! I really like the blocks based effects routing on this unit.

[@Nicolae8607]

I know is hard question but sound wise FM9 or GX 😁...I gave up on Quad Cortex and I am looking to choose between GX and FM9 ..the only down size for me on Fm9 is the UI ...same was with boss but this GX looks so easy to use Thx man🤘

[@LeonTodd]

@@Nicolae8607 luckily you can watch a bunch of my Fractal and BOSS vids and decide for yourself ;)

[@TheCyberMantis]

@@Nicolae8607 The FM9 sounds better and has way more detailed editing. The GX is way cheaper, and easier to use. Also: no waiting-list to get a GX.

[@Live4NowOK]

@@TheCyberMantis In Australia the GX is 1/3 the Price. I doubt the audience is interested I saved money, but I am.

[@rageunlimited]

Wow learned a lot, thank you! My research on this pedal introduced me to you, great content man. I have a question, recently got a Boss Gx-100, trying to figure out if i need a dibox for live use. There is no info on whether the outputs are balanced or not, so i assumed they are not. Watched some videos and one guy said he uses balanced cables to get rid of dibox and that confused me. Do i need a dibox, mono cables or balanced cables for a stereo connection for live use?

[@Matthew_Scan]

It’s good you can stack as many as the same effect as you want my only criticism I’d prefer something like the Headrush touch screen but it sounds great 👍

[@Krystof.Veritae]

Great sounding rig ...what did you use for the backing tracks those are really cool as well ...Cheers mate .

[@LeonTodd]

I made some (available on my Patreon) and some are from the YT channel "Backing Tracks by Tim"

[@vincentvince196729]

Hi Leon; first, thanks a lot for your videos ! I'd like a little help : I cover Deep Purple's HIGHWAY STAR with my band. I'm trying to find a way to get the right harmonization for the (2nd solo), but there's always a wrong note : it's important to notice that we play detuned (Eb Ab,...etc); so instead of G we play it Gb ....can you help me find the solution ? Thanks a lot

[@d-mack7053]

@LeonTodd You're early. Normally your daily video comes out at 6:00 AM. here in the States. Its early in the 1:00 A.M. hour here right now. "D"

[@LeonTodd]

Just syncing up with the big boys in japan for this one :D

[@d-mack7053]

Gotcha.

[@TheCyberMantis]

@@LeonTodd I love Japan!

[@joostvlasschaert2118]

Apologies if it's been asked before but does the GX-100 allow for delay trails and assigning plural effects to a single pedal?

[@rumy6871]

Leon, would you be willing to do a demo using the GX with a marshall or mesa amp? How would we best set it up if only going into the front? Best ideas for 4 cable method?

[@musik4life24]

Hi are you figured it out if it sound good with the 4 Cable Method?

[@ddmilne1]

Need a review Rhythm only!

[@johniresearchist7263]

thanks for your reviews on gx100 how would this pair with roland jc40?

[@LeonTodd]

My pleasure. The GX has a dedicated output setting for use with the JC amps

[@sergioarturoperezfernandez5224]

Leon Todd thats amazing sounds , just quick doubt, how ca i take volume using foot ? because is not integrated , sorry for my questions but I can't make raise and down volume as usual using pedal expression..

[@LeonTodd]

You'll need to add a volume block and then assign it to the pedal. If you watch my first GX-100 video I touch on the ctrl and assign pages briefly.

[@sergioarturoperezfernandez5224]

@@LeonTodd cool i did it ... amazing sounds for my band rock Queretaro Mexico "Dark Originem"

[@Nightbreed82]

How do the dirt stomp box models sound? Does the Metal Zone sound like a Metal Zone, the HM-2 like an HM-2, etc.?

[@LeonTodd]

Pretty decent - pretty sure it's the same tech the OD-200 uses

[@Nightbreed82]

@@LeonTodd Right on, thanks! I just sold an HM-2 to help fund a new guitar, so it's nice to know the GX-100 has a decent emulation of it. I've heard good things about the OD-200 modeling.

[@Rio-Jeos]

I sold.....take me to the store now.

[@ChicagoJ351]

What are you missing with the gx 100 that you get in the gt 1000? What justifies the higher price of the gt1000?

[@LeonTodd]

You can run more simultaneous blocks on the GT and there's a few control related things the GT does. I honestly prefer the "streamlined" GX.

[@billysoto2151]

Leon....please help...why are my tones edgy and brittle...im going direct into a powered ev cab.i also used powered jbl's .my guitar is a jem7v..all i keep getting is that edgy fizzy tone when i use any sort of overdrive or distortion. I appreciate any advice that would fix this..thank you .

[@user-dp7qb9jb6s]

Leon, I have been absolutely addicted to this preset for the last 6 months or so. I play it for almost everything. I have recently gone from just jamming to recording and producing, and i am desperate to get this kind of tone using plugins. Any tips?

[@LeonTodd]

Anything Mesa or Marshall flavoured from Mercuriall or NDSP will hit the spot.

[@user-dp7qb9jb6s]

@@LeonTodd Thank you! Will try them out!

[@user-dp7qb9jb6s]

@@LeonTodd I'm getting close to the sound I want, but there is one thing left. I really like how you pitch shifted the LT lead only 11 cents up and down, but most pitch shifter VST's i can find can only shift in tones or half tones. Do you know of a VST that does in cents like the GX-100 pitch shifter does? Thanks again!

[@elotro100]

Are these presets also available for the GT-1000?

[@LeonTodd]

Just the GX at the moment, the internal routing is a lot different. I imagine you could download the GX editor, load these in offline mode and copy the settings into the GT1000 though.

[@briandgr8st]

Soundwise which do you prefer for live use? Your Fractal Axe FX3 or Boss GX100? I have a Fractal FM9 and I’m thinking if i should sell it for this?

[@LeonTodd]

Fractal all the way for me.

[@sebrura]

I’m testing the GX100 and FM3 at the moment. While the FM3 is insanely more tweakable, the GX100 sounds amazing and seem to have some secret sauce to its amps. I’m blown away by it.

[@musik4life24]

Hey Leon what about the 4 Cable method. Yeah or nay?!

[@LeonTodd]

Should work a treat

[@mai-latan6285]

What output select you are using?

[@jesterraj]

Delay before reverb or other way around? What's your take?

[@LeonTodd]

I usually go delay - verb but that's more out of habit than anything else

[@jesterraj]

[@LeonTodd]

yes you can edit it on the computer via USB

[@Napalmdeath2000]

My problem with the GX-100 is. When i am switch of the cab sim of the amp models its sound thin and total crap. I play in the input of an valve head

[@musik4life24]

Hello have you solved this?

[@honigdachs.]

@@musik4life24 It is a much better idea to connect the GX-100 to a valve head using the 4-cable-method. Look it up. This way you're using the preamp section of the GX-100 with only the poweramp of the valve amp. This will sound better than going from the GX-100 to the amp's input. Also, the GX-100 has different in/out settings. You need to choose the correct setting (don't use the direct recording setting when going into a valve power amp + cab etc.)

[@ludytriaxis4764]

Now i am thingking to sell my LT and buy GX100....

[@peterharvin2775]

Well, crap. No mercy from you for those of us who suffer from G.A.S.

how do i put them in my pedalboard?

[@LeonTodd]

There should be instructions on the BOSS site. You'll need to use the BOSS Tone Studio software.
