Paul Hanson’s Custom Patches for the GT-10 Hi, I’m Paul Hanson, a specialist at BOSS, and these are some of my custom patches. It’s probably a good idea to have your GT-10 Owner’s Manual on hand so you can refer to it if you need help with any of the instructions in this document. Here are a few quick notes to get the best out of these patches and the GT-10: • Patches with “L/R” in the patch name are intended for stereo use. To monitor the GT-10’s output in stereo, connect the OUTPUT L/MONO and R jacks to two separate amps, or to left and right channels on a stereo mixer, multitrack recorder, etc. You can also monitor in stereo by plugging headphones into the GT-10’s PHONES jack. • Set the GT-10’s OUTPUT SELECT setting for the type of device you’re plugging into (LINE/PHONES, COMBO AMP, JC-120, etc.). • All my patches have effects assigned to the GT-10’s CTL 1 and CTL 2 pedals, so don’t forget to press them to see what they do. Before You Begin To load these patches into your GT-10, you’ll need to connect to a USB-equipped computer running Windows XP/Vista or Mac OS 10.4.3 (or later). To prepare for this, you’ll need to do the following: • Set the GT-10’s USB Driver mode as follows: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

Press SYSTEM on the GT-10’s front . Use the dial to select “USB” in the display. Press CATEGORY/ENTER. Use the cursor buttons to select “Driver Mode.” Use the dial to select “Advanced.” “PLEASE RESTART” will be displayed. Turn the GT-10’s power off and then back on again.

• and install the GT-10 USB Driver for your computer’s operating system. You can the driver at the same place you ed these patches—the GT-10 s tab at www.BOSSUS.com. Install the driver according to the instructions that come with the . • and install the GT-10 Librarian software. Like the driver, you can get it at the s tab at www.BOSSUS.com. Install the software according to the instructions that come with the . • Open the GT-10 Librarian Manual (included with the ) and follow the instructions in “Connections and Settings”” to connect the GT-10 to the computer, launch the GT-10 Librarian, and set up the software for MIDI communication with the GT-10.

Procedure for Using the GT-10 Librarian to Back Up and Load Patches 1. First, let’s back up any patches that you’ve already created. (If you don’t want to back up your patches, you can skip ahead to Step 6.) •

To back up all of your patches, click the Read All button in the Main window.

•

If you want to back up specific patches, select them in the Main window, and then click the Read Selected button. You can select multiple patches with Command-click (Mac) or Control-click (PC).

Tip: Backing up a few specific patches takes less time than backing up all patches. 2. After the Librarian has retrieved your patches from the GT-10, go to the Edit menu and select New. This will create a new empty library with the temporary name “Untitled” plus a number (“Untitled1,” “Untitled2,” etc.). 3. Go to the Main window and select the patches that you want to back up. Then, go to the Edit menu and select Copy. 4. Go to the empty library window and select “End of Line.” Then, go to the Edit menu and select Insert. 5. Now, with the new library window still selected, go the File menu and select Save As. In the dialog that appears, give your library a descriptive name and save it to a place on your computer that you’ll . This backs up all of your custom patches, and you can reopen this file to reload them back into your GT-10 whenever you like. 6. Go to the File menu and select Open. In the dialog that appears, navigate to the “GT10_20CstmPaulH” library file that you ed and open it. 7. In the GT10_20CstmPaulH window, copy the patches there and insert them into any 20 of the 200 locations in the Main window. 8. In the Main window, select the 20 patches that you inserted, and then click the Write Selected button. Note: This procedure will overwrite the existing GT-10 patches in the selected locations. 9. After the Librarian finishes transferring patches to the GT-10, close the Librarian program and unplug the USB cable from the GT-10 and the computer. To learn more about how to back up, organize, and load GT-10 patches, refer to the GT-10 Librarian Manual. Hope you like these patches! Paul Hanson
