Professional 100-watt combo amp with enhanced tone and exclusive features Custom Waza 12-inch speaker realizes classic British stack speaker tone and response with increased power handling Tube Logic design approach produces class-defying power, authoritative punch, and cutting presence Robust analog class-AB power amp section delivers authentic tone and highly musical response Ultra-solid cabinet construction and semi-closed back for tight, focused tone with rich low end Five amp characters with five variations, plus Booster, Mod, FX, Delay, and Reverb sections with three variations in each Three-way Contour for shaping the overall tonal color and Global EQ switch with three settings (customizable in BOSS Tone Studio) Switchable Solo function with level control Integrated dual amp expansion functions for GA-FC control and true stereo effects Updated BOSS Tone Studio editor software for customizing sounds with over 60 BOSS effects; newly added editor features include pre and post EQs, dedicated Pedal FX, and more Series/parallel effect loop, external speaker outputs, and power amp input for preamps, modelers, and multi-effects Eight Tone Setting memories for storing and recalling all amp and effect settings Power Control for achieving cranked-amp tone and response at low volumes Mic'd cabinet emulation on the line, USB, and phones/recording outputs, with three Air Feel settings available in BOSS Tone Studio External control support via GA-FC foot controller, footswitches, expression pedal, and MIDI Refined Sound for Professional Performers Just like its predecessor, the Katana-Artist MkII has been designed with extra detail for discerning pro players. BOSS s custom Waza speaker puts the ultimate vintage rock sound under your fingers, while the cabinet s wide baffle and semi-closed back provide focused, punchy tones with rich low end and big midrange fullness. In addition, every Katana-Artist MkII amp character has been specially voiced for optimum response with the speaker and cab. Waza Speaker: Legendary Tone, Modern Power A key element to the Katana-Artist MkII s powerful sound is the 12-inch Waza speaker, developed by BOSS to deliver the wide dynamic response, smooth midrange, and rich harmonic overtones of the benchmark 25-watt British stack speaker from the 1960s. Through detailed analysis of original speakers and careful selection of the magnet, cone material, and other elements, the Waza speaker embodies the full mojo of this legendary speaker while boosting power capacity to 100 watts. Expanded Amp Characters and Effects The Katana-Artist MkII features the same core updates introduced with the Katana MkII amps. Variations are now available for the five amp characters, providing 10 different tone options to choose from. And with five simultaneous effects categories, you have the sound-shaping power of a massive pedalboard right inside your amp. Connecting to BOSS Tone Studio lets you dive much deeper if you want customize the sections with over 60 different effect types, change the order with four different chains, and much more. Deep Tone-Shaping Tools On the front panel, you ll find some exclusive features only available with the Katana-Artist MkII. A three-way Contour switch lets you shape the amp's core tone, while three selectable Global EQ settings (adjustable in BOSS Tone Studio) are great for fine-tuning the overall sound for different guitars and styles. A foot-controllable, post-amp Solo boost function is also available, with a dedicated panel knob for fast adjustment. Integrated Dual Amp Support Powerful expansion features make it simple to use two Katana-Artist MkIIs together. With Dual Link, you can configure each amp with independent settings and operate them from a single GA-FC foot controller, allowing you to blend clean and dirty tones, create wet/dry setups, and more. Stereo Expand lets you use one amp as the master and the other as the slave, with onboard stereo-compatible effects like chorus, delay, and reverb distributed across both amps for a wide, immersive sound field. Full-Throttle Sound Every Time You Plug In Backed by BOSS s Tube Logic approach, the Katana-Artist MkII delivers the authentic output distortion characteristics of genuine tube amplifiers, with the sound and feel becoming richer and more responsive as you turn up the volume. But unlike that classic tube amp, our variable Power Control lets you fly in the sweet spot without getting fired from the gig or kicked out of the house. Just throttle back the overall volume as needed to enjoy inspiring, cranked-amp sound anywhere you play. One-Touch Recall of Custom Setups With onboard Tone Setting memories, you can store your favorite amp character and effects setups for instant recall. After you ve dialed in a sound with the panel controls, simply save it to the desired memory with a quick button hold. Eight Tone Settings (two banks of four) are available, with fast selection right from the panel. And for hands-free operation on the gig, just connect external footswitches or the GA-FC foot controller. Ready-to-Mix Direct Tones Line, USB, and phones/recording outputs feature mic'd cabinet emulation, letting you send mix-ready amp tones to a PA system, computer DAW, or headphones. The direct sound can be shaped with three different Air Feel settings, which are accessible from BOSS Tone Studio. Two-channel USB audio is supported, allowing you to track in true stereo with many of the Katana-Artist MkII s mod, EQ, delay, and reverb effects. Compact Gig Commander The optional GA-FC foot controller is the perfect partner for the Katana-Artist MkII it connects with a single cable, requires no external power, and has a slim, rugged profile that takes up minimal space. With six footswitches, you can recall Tone Settings and turn the five effects sections on/off. The GA-FC also supports external footswitches and expression pedals, with default assignments that include tap tempo, bank selection, foot volume, and Pedal FX. Assignments can be customized via BOSS Tone Studio, including pedal control of up to three parameters at once. BOSS Tone Studio Enhancements BOSS Tone Studio has also evolved alongside the Katana MkII amplifiers. The interface has been updated with a refreshed look, and many parameters have been consolidated into the main screen for faster workflow. There s also a dedicated Pedal FX category, making it easier to assign wah and pedal bend effects to a connected expression pedal. And if you re a first-gen Katana owner, it s possible to import your custom patches and use them all with the Katana-Artist MkII.

Un son raffiné pour les professionnels
Tout comme son prédécesseur, le Katana-Artist MkII a été conçu dans tous ses détails pour les professionnels exigeants. Le haut-parleur spécial Waza BOSS met sous vos doigts les sons rock vintage ultimes, tandis que la structure semi-fermée du caisson fournit des sons directionnels et punchy avec de riches fréquences basses et une belle plénitude dans les médiums. Par ailleurs, chaque caractéristique d•ampli du Katana-Artist MkII a été spécialement réglée pour une réponse optimale du haut-parleur et du caisson.
Haut-parleur Waza : Un son légendaire, une puissance actuelle
Le haut-parleur Waza 30 cm (12 pouces) constitue un élément clé du puissant son du Katana-Artist MkII. Il a été spécialement développé par BOSS pour fournir la large réponse dynamique, les doux médiums et les harmoniques riches du fameux haut-parleur stack anglais 25 watts des années 1960. Grâce à une analyse détaillée des haut-parleurs d•origine et un choix minutieux des aimants, matériaux du cône et autres éléments constitutifs, le haut-parleur Waza fait renaître le charme de cet ancien modèle légendaire tout en boostant ses capacités de puissance jusqu•Ã 100 watts.
Nouvelles caractéristiques d•amplis et effets
Le Katana-Artist MkII bénéficie des mêmes améliorations de structure que les autres amplis Katana MkII. Des variations sont désormais disponibles pour les cinq caractéristiques d•ampli, fournissant un choix de dix options de timbre différentes. Et grâce aux cinq catégories d•effets simultanés, vous disposez dans votre ampli d•une puissance de modelage des sons équivalente à celle d•un grand pédalboard. Le connecter à BOSS Tone Studio vous permet d•aller encore plus loin en matière de réglages : plus de 60 types d•effet y sont disponibles, qu'il est possible de placer dans différents ordres au sein de quatre chaînes différentes.
Des outils de réglage détaillé des sons
En façade, vous bénéficierez de réglages exclusifs au Katana-Artist MkII. Un bouton de Contour à trois positions sculpte le c•ur du son, tandis que trois EQ globaux (réglables dans BOSS Tone Studio) permettent de le régler finement en fonction des guitares utilisées et des styles joués. Une fonction de Boost de solo est également disponible et contrôlable au pied, avec bouton de façade dédié pour des réglages rapides.
Fonction de double amplification intégrée
Les nouvelles fonctionnalités facilitent également l•usage conjoint de deux amplis Katana-Artist MkII. Grâce à la liaison Dual Link, chaque ampli peut être réglé différemment puis géré depuis un pédalier GA-FC, permettant ainsi de mélanger sons clairs et saturés, de créer des configurations Wet/Dry, etc. La fonction Stereo Expand permet quant à elle d•utiliser un ampli en tant que maître et le second en tant qu•esclave, avec des effets stéréo Chorus, Delay et Reverb intégrés, distribués sur les deux amplis pour créer un large espace sonore immersif.
Un son puissant en toutes circonstances
Doté du concept Tube Logic BOSS, le Katana-Artist MkII produit les caractéristiques de distorsion de sortie authentiques des amplis à lampes, le son devenant plus riche et la réponse se modifiant au fur et à mesure que le volume augmente. Mais au contraire des amplis à lampes, la puissance variable Power Control permet de trouver le son idéal à divers volumes, et de ne pas risquer de se faire chasser d•un bar ou de chez soi ! Vous pouvez ainsi régler le volume en fonction de l•endroit où vous jouez, de la scène à votre chambre, tout en bénéficiant d•un son distordu de lampes.
Un bouton unique de rappel des réglages personnels
Grâce au système de mémorisation Tone Setting de l•ampli, vous pouvez sauvegarder vos caractéristiques d•ampli et vos effets favoris pour pouvoir les rappeler instantanément. Lorsque vous avez réglé votre son à partir des contrôleurs de façade, il est facile de sauvegarder en mémoire les valeurs obtenues d•un simple appui sur un bouton. Huit mémoires Tone Setting (deux banques de quatre) sont disponibles, facilement accessibles en façade. Et pour gérer tout cela sans les mains en concert, il vous suffit de connecter des footswitchs externes ou un pédalier GA-FC.
Des sons prêts pour le mixage
Les sorties Line, USB et casque/enregistrement intègrent une simulation de sonorisation par micro, vous permettant d•envoyer un son d•ampli prêt à mixer vers un système de sonorisation, un logiciel de création musicale ou un casque audio. Le son direct peut être modelé à l•aide de trois réglages d•ambiance Air Feel différents, accessibles dans BOSS Tone Studio. Le fonctionnement en USB deux canaux vous permet de profiter d•une véritable stéréo avec les effets de modulation, Delay et Reverb, ainsi que l•EQ du Katana-Artist MkII.
Un ampli compact
Le pédalier GA-FC en option constitue le partenaire idéal de votre Katana-Artist MkII. Il se connecte avec un simple câble, sans alimentation externe, et son design minimaliste lui permet d•occuper un espace réduit. Avec ses six interrupteurs, vous pouvez rappeler vos mémoires Tone Settings et allumer ou éteindre les cinq sections d•effets. Le GA-FC peut également recevoir des footswitchs externes et pédales d•expression, avec des assignations par défaut comme le Tap Tempo, le choix des banques, le volume au pied, ou le Pedal FX. Les assignations peuvent être réalisées dans BOSS Tone Studio, avec jusqu•Ã trois paramètres contrôlés par une seule pédale.
Améliorations BOSS Tone Studio
BOSS Tone Studio a évolué avec les amplis Katana MkII. Son interface a été rafraîchie, et de nombreux paramètres ont été placés en écran principal pour simplifier les opérations. Une catégorie Pedal FX est désormais disponible, permettant d•assigner plus facilement les effets de Wah-Wah et de Bend à une pédale d•expression. Et si vous possédez un ampli Katana de première génération, il vous sera possible d•importer vos patchs dans le Katana-Artist MkII.
