{"product_id":"boss-katana-artist-head-gen-3","title":"Boss Katana Artist Head Gen 3","description":"Boss Katana Artist Head Gen. 3 is based on the latest improvements to Boss’s Tube Logic technology and is packed with tube-inspired tone and classic BOSS effects. The powerful 100-watt top gives you six different amp emulations, including the 3rd generation model’s dynamic “Pushed” amp emulation. And each amp emulation is available in 2 versions so you can access a total of 12 different base tones.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith Katana Artist Gen. 3. you get five independent effect sections with a huge library of classic pedal-inspired effects, from spacious reverbs to ethereal delays. The EQ section has also been expanded and now includes a 3-band EQ, a 3-way contour control, a presence control, 8 Tone Setting memory slots where you can save and access your favorite amp\/effect combinations, and a dedicated Solo function with its own boost and delay. The whole package is rounded off with a cabinet-simulated balanced XLR\/jack Line Out, headphone and USB outputs, effects loop, MIDI, Stereo Expand functionality, Cab Resonance control, Power Control settings for reducing wattage, and a 3rd generation Tone Studio app.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Katana Artist Head Gen. 3. series is based on a newly developed and improved iteration of Boss’s Tube Logic technology. A technology that captures all the harmonic nuances and dynamic responsiveness that a real tube amp delivers. These improvements elevate all previous models in the Katana series to a whole new level, but the technology truly comes into its own with the 3rd generation model’s “pushed” emulation. “Pushed” is designed to accurately replicate the coveted tube breakup sound, sensitive gain characteristics, and lively dynamics that an amp pushed to the breaking point can deliver. In addition, you get a greatly improved Boss Tone Studio app with a better user interface and more editing options.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn addition to the new Pushed amp emulation, Katana Artist Gen. 3. also includes the five emulations from the MkII series, which in the Gen. 3. model have been optimized for Boss’s newly developed Tube Logic technology. Clean, Crunch, and Lead cover the range from budding clean tones and gritty rhythm tones to high-gain solos. Then there is the Brown amp emulation, derived from the Boss Waza amp, which delivers a classic ’80s metal tone. Acoustic allows you to connect your electro-acoustic guitar to the Katana Artist Head Gen. 3. and use it with Katana’s many effects. The Boss Katana Artist Head is configured as a standard guitar amp with familiar controls for quick tone shaping. And you can, of course, use the Boss Tone Studio editor software to further customize the amp’s settings and effects.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSwitching from rhythm to solo usually requires an output boost to get the levels right. Traditionally, this is achieved with clean boosts, overdrive, or volume pedals, or by turning up the amp. Katana Artist Gen. 3 gives you a footswitchable Solo boost with adjustable output, so you can lift your signal for solos and return to a reasonable sound level when you need to play rhythm.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf you have a multi-effect or a tube preamp that you would like to integrate, you can access all 100 watts of the Katana Artist Head Gen 3’s Class AB power amp via the power amp input. Here you bypass all the circuitry before the power amp, so you only hear what you choose to hear.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKatana Artist Gen. 3. is also equipped with an adjustable Power Control, which allows you to reduce the guitar amp’s output to 25 watts or to 0.5 watts for home practice. The speaker cabinet-simulated outputs even make it possible to use the Katana 100 Gen. 3. without any sound coming out of the speaker at all. Which is great for studio recording or for very large stages. The cabinet emulation is also available on the USB and headphone outputs, and the selectable cabinet resonance (Vintage\/Modern\/Deep) and Air Feel microphone emulation (direct, distant, or blended) allow you to customize the cabinet-simulated sound to your liking.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Tone Studio editor has been upgraded with an improved user interface and more editing options. With Katana Artist Head Gen. 3 you get access to 60 of Boss’s effects, which you can download in Tone Studio and place in Katana Artist’s effect section. The amp’s Booster\/Mod, FX\/Delay, and Reverb controls give you easy access to up to five effect types. To customize your effects and amp settings, you need to connect Katana Artist Head Gen. 3 to your computer via USB and load the Tone Studio software. Here you can create your own configurations, or download configurations that professional guitarists have uploaded to the Boss Tone Studios website. The best part of all is that Katana Artist Gen. 3 can store multiple different amp and effect profiles that you can recall whenever you need them.","brand":"Boss","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53755803599186,"sku":"ROCORP-KTN-ART-3HD","price":5510.0,"currency_code":"DKK","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1069\/9256\/6610\/files\/Boss-Katana-Artist-Head-Gen-3-a.webp?v=1781533875","url":"https:\/\/akustikken.dk\/en\/products\/boss-katana-artist-head-gen-3","provider":"Akustikken","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
