The premier floorboard solution for acoustic performers. The Boss AD-10 transforms thin, boxy piezo pickup sounds into rich, organic studio-grade acoustic resonance using Boss’s proprietary MDP processing. Features dual independent channels with separate EQs, multi-band compressor, built-in looper, anti-feedback suppression, acoustic resonance modeling, and balanced stereo XLR outputs. An all-in-one gigging hub that makes any acoustic guitar sound like a mic'd custom instrument.
Highlights:
- Acoustic Resonance technology restores body air and natural mic tone.
- 2-channel inputs with independent 4-band EQ and feedback notch filters.
- Onboard looper, chorus, delay, reverb, and balanced XLR DIs.
