Valeton GP-5
Valeton has officially unveiled the GP-5, a revolutionary multi-effects and amp modeling mini pedal poised to transform the way guitarists approach their tone.
Neural Amp Modeling
This incredibly compact device, no larger than a standard stompbox, integrates an entire rig's worth of features, including over 100 high-quality effects, Neural Amp Modeling (NAM) import compatibility, and extensive Impulse Response (IR) loading capabilities.
Your Entire Rig, Now Pocket-Sized
The GP-5 defies its diminutive size by offering an unprecedented level of tonal functionality. Designed as a truly all-in-one solution, it allows guitarists to craft intricate signal chains with up to nine effects working simultaneously, selected from a vast library of over 100 options.
This makes it an ideal choice for guitarists seeking a versatile and portable effects unit.
Unlock Infinite Tones with NAM & IRs
A standout feature of the GP-5 is its robust support for both Neural Amp Modeling (NAM) and Impulse Response (IR) loading. Guitarists can now import universal NAM files, opening up a world of meticulously modeled amplifier and effect tones shared by a global community.
The pedal comes preloaded with 50 curated SnapTone files, with a maximum storage capacity of 80, ensuring a diverse tonal palette from the get-go.
Sound Clone/Cabinet IR
For cabinet simulation, the GP-5 offers Sound Clone/Cabinet IR loading technology, allowing users to store up to 20 third-party IR files alongside 50 meticulously selected factory IRs.
This provides unparalleled flexibility in crafting the perfect amplified sound, from classic 4x12s to compact open-back combos.
Designed for the Modern Guitarist
Beyond its extensive tonal capabilities, the GP-5 addresses the diverse needs of contemporary musicians. Its 1/4" output doubles as a headphone jack for silent practice, while offering full stereo processing for immersive soundscapes. For recording, the pedal provides 2-in/2-out USB Audio compatibility with Mac, PC, iOS, and Android systems, enabling seamless capture of riffs, song ideas, and improvised solos.
The single footswitch, though seemingly modest, is fully customizable, allowing users to toggle between patch switching, FX bypass, songlist navigation, or tuner activation. This intelligent design ensures intuitive operation even in a live setting.
Seamless Control with the Valeton App
Managing the GP-5's extensive features is made simple with the dedicated Valeton smartphone app. Connecting via Bluetooth, guitarists can browse components, tones, and IRs, and switch between sounds on the fly, making it perfect for on-the-go practice, session prep, or bedroom jamming. The app also includes 100 built-in drum patterns for enhanced practice sessions.
