The Firstborn of the GP Series, the Ideal Entry into the Valeton Ecosystem
As the first model in the series, the GP-100 condenses the brand's DNA into an accessible multi-effects unit without compromising on quality. Its refined digital modeling and numerous presets offer a credible gateway to both "classic" and modern sounds, with the flexibility of IRs to match your preferred cabinet.
Who Is It For and What Are Its Uses?
Designed for guitarists and bassists of all levels, the GP-100 excels in home studio (direct recording via USB), rehearsal (Aux input for playing along with backing tracks), and live (stereo outputs to PA or amp). Blues, rock, metal, pop, or ambient: its presets cover a wide range and can be tweaked in seconds on stage or on a compact pedalboard.
Features and Foot-Controlled Operation
Two working modes-Stompbox or Preset-adapt to your playing style. Three encoders and dedicated buttons simplify editing, while the expression pedal controls volume, wah, or any assignable parameter. The effects chain is rearrangeable, third-party IR import (20 slots) refines cabinet response, and the USB audio interface (44.1 kHz at 16/24 bits) facilitates reamping. A 90-second looper and drum machine complete both practice and stage setups.
Sound Quality
The GP-100 delivers an organic and responsive sound, with airy cleans, expressive crunches, and modern high-sustain saturations. Dynamics follow pick attack and guitar volume, while onboard IRs and equalizers allow tonal adjustment from sparkling clean to tight high-gain. A versatile multi-effects unit that preserves attack, nuance, and definition in the mix.
