BOSS Personal Bass Amplification System (WAZA-AIR-B), Black

<p>Using headphones is often a necessary solution when practicing bass at home. But the sound lacks the depth of the in-room experience. Waza-Air Bass changes that, restoring the natural dimension, resonance, and ""moving air"" feel that's lost with traditional phones. An integrated gyro sensor tracks your head movements as you play, driving sophisticated 3D algorithms that provide spatial realism you have to hear to believe. And it all happens automatically, so all you have to do is plug in and go! The Waza-Air Bass experience includes loads of great-sounding amps and effects with full customization and ready-to-play presets available via the companion BOSS Tone Studio app. Five different bass amp types provide everything from clean and punchy modern sounds to vintage and driven tube-style voicings. There's also a massive selection of bass-tuned effects to choose from, including staples like compressor, overdrive, EQ, and T-wah, rich modulation and ambience effects, and specialty sounds such as octave, bass synth, ring mod, and more. And with six onboard memories, you can store favorite setups and scroll through them with dedicated buttons. Your daily practice sessions are fun and productive with Waza-Air Bass and its wide range of onboard rhythms. Ten acoustic drum patterns are available, complete with easy BPM and reverb control in the BOSS Tone Studio app. There's even an advanced metronome too, with 32 rhythm variations that include triplets and odd meters like 5/4 and 7/4. You can also store six different rhythm setups in the app, ready for quick recall when you want to jam. Waza-Air Bass provides three realistic environments to play in: Surround mode places the amp in a virtual room, providing an immersive experience like playing in a recording studio. Static mode gives you an even more realistic experience where the combined amp and room sound changes depending on where you move your head. Stage mode lets you step into the spotlight, with the amp sound coming from a virtual backline behind you, along with the onboard acoustic drum patters or music streamed from your phone via Bluetooth. With Waza-Air Bass, all audio connectivity is 100-percent wireless. With the ability to move and play in complete freedom, you'll never get tangled up or pull off your headphones by stepping on a cable. The large, custom-designed 50mm drivers provide rich, full sound for both bass playing and music listening. The conforming earpads and wide headband provide superior comfort for extended playing sessions, while the rugged build ensures lasting durability for everyday practice and jamming.</p>
