GTXMate (formerly GT1000Mate) - a fast patch switcher for the Boss GT-1000, GX-10 & GX-100 guitar effects processors
If you use a Boss(tm) GT-1000, GX-10 or GX-100 guitar effects processors for live performances, or just use a number of different 'patches' (presets / tones), GTXMate is a 'must have'.
The app reads all 250/198 patch names and their numbers (ie bank/patch) directly from the Boss device in under 2 minutes via Bluetooth or USB connection.
Ordered lists of the patches are created automatically. Then, by tapping on a patch name in the list, the effects processor is switched to the specified patch. The switching is very fast - ie sub-second.
The lists of patches can be edited to change their order to match the required performance order (ie Set List), and/or new setlists can be created from scratch. This can be done using the in-built SetList Editor for easy 'drag & drop' capability.
Once edited and saved, the updated patch lists are immediately available for use with the GT-1000, GX-10/100.
