Using Stomp Box; Editing The Stomp Box; Saving A Patch - Boss GT-1000 Owner's Manual

Editing: Effects
Switching patches without interrupting the sound
The GT-1000 is equipped with a new type of high-speed patch
switching system, allowing you to switch patches with minimal
interruption of the sound. The fastest possible switching is
automatically performed for each patch, and switching without
interrupting the sound is also possible.
Tips for preventing interruptions in the sound
To prevent interruptions in the sound, observe the following points
when you create the patches that are used before and after the switch.
5 Avoid changing the position of blocks within the chain.
5 Use multiple blocks when placing the effects (don't change the
TYPE within the same block).
5 Use parallel positioning, and switch the channel.
Example:
Switching from a clean sound that uses chorus and deep delay, to a
crunch sound that uses phaser and shallow delay.

Using Stomp Box

Your preferred settings for each effect can be saved as a "stomp box. "
You can select these saved settings and use them to create your sound
just as though you were connecting compact pedal effects. The stomp
box data is common to all patches; this means that all patches using
the same stomp box can be edited simultaneously.
