G3S Atom
It seems like the most obvious thing in the world, but of course, if you have 99 banks with up to 16 presets per bank, you’re going to want screen next to the footswitches!
Introducing G3S Atom, its Atom built with screens next to each footswitch… finally!
Our G3 range delivers a new standard for effects pedal lovers seeking the ultimate control and tonal transparency. G3S Atom delivers the icing on the cake.
Built on the legacy of our award winning G2, The G3 range delivers the ultimate in signal path purity with possibilities never before seen in a pedalboard switcher.
Hear your effects as they were designed to sound, unencumbered by compromises inherent in a standard pedalboard setup.
We designed the G3 Atom alongside G3 from the ground up, obsessively testing and retesting every aspect of its design to ensure we delivered the most robust, fully featured, tonally transparent switching system in the world.
G3S Atom is an expression of our passion. We compromised on nothing.
WHY G3S ATOM?
We wanted to offer a compact alternative to G3S without compromising on any of its features. We are delighted to introduce you to the G3S Atom. The Atom has less presets per bank (up to 16) and 6 effects loops, but each of these loops can be stereo using a TRS cable.
Every other feature in G3S can be found in the G3S Atom, from its 99 banks of presets to its 20 programmable mappable MIDI messages preset. Ideal for physically smaller, powerhouse rigs looking for the ultimate in tonal flexibility.
The G3S Atom features 6 additional dedicated footswitch screens alongside the Main G3 Atom screen, in total providing preset labels for all 8 switches.
These OLED displays are designed to be visible in any light and on even the darkest of stages - all without drawing any more current away from your power supply, and each display featuring up to five characters.
With its built-in Bluetooth you can connect to our new G3 Web Editor, or via the G3 iOS app to edit and label your 99 banks of Presets, update software, run system backups, and edit your song lists with ease.
For all the things that G3S Atom does, we've never forgotten the most important thing and that's what G3S doesn't do...
The G3 range will not load or colour your guitar tone, letting you hear your effects and amps as they were designed to sound.
The G3 delivered a new standard for those seeking the ultimate control and tonal transparency - and the G3S and G3S Atom are the icing on the cake.
