When we designed the G5n, our goal was to create the finest collection of guitar effects ever offered in one innovative package. From “FunkSauce” to “Texas Toast,” from “Carlos” to “Heavensent,” the G5n delivers dozens of tonalities sure to please the most discerningguitarist.
G5n V1.0 is loaded with 68 beautifully-crafted and newly assembled DSP effects, plus 10 of the most faithful and realistic amp/cabinet emulators we’ve ever created. And with the Firmware V2.0 update, youll get an additional 32 stompbox effects, 8 new amp emulators, and 8 new cabinetemulators.
A wide array of effects
The G5n firmware V1.0 comes equipped with freshly-developed takes on not only the most-essential guitar sounds like overdrive, distortion, compression, EQ, delay, reverb, flanging, phasing, vibrato, and chorusing, but also unique multi-effects such as Seq Filter, Gold Drive, Reverse Delay, HD Hall, and OSCEcho.
Ultra-realistic amp/cabinet emulation
You can connect the G5n directly to a PA system or audio interface, using the 10 brand new onboard amp and cabinet emulators. Choose from 5 classic amp models like the Marshall JCM800, Fender Twin Reverb, MESA Boogie Mk3, Bogner Ecstasy Blue Channel and British 30W Class A Combo, newly and faithfully created to be adjusted exactly as you would with the knobs and switches of the realthing.
To explore the wealth of possibilities that the G5n offers, we continuously collaborate with inspirational, professional guitarists known for their taste and love of great guitar sounds. The G5n comes stocked with 100 newly custom-designed patches that both recreate decades of essential guitar toneslike the iconic sounds of Eddie Van Halen, Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page, Carlos Santana, Michael Schenker, and Brian Mayand pioneer new territory with combinations exclusively created for G5nguitarists.??
Stand out with “Lead BGN,” a modern lead sound folded into a modulated delay, or “Phazed,” an intense tube amp sound through a phaser. The “UFO” patch harnesses parametric EQ in the style of the lead guitarist of the band of the same name, and then there’s “DreamWorld,” an overdriven crunch enhanced with tape echo and hallreverb.
