Boss Waza-Air Wireless Guitar Headphone System
Innovation for inspiration
Boss. The name behind some of the most revolutionary creations for guitarists. With decades of knowledge and experience behind them, their innovative approach to design just gets better and better. And now, it comes in the form of the Waza-Air Wireless Guitar Headphone System.
There's so much more to this breakthrough system than just being able to play your guitar whilst keeping your neighbours happy. Take advantage of almost endless tonal possibilities with the ability to pick and choose from Boss' collection of premium amplifier voices and effects. And with innovative 3D sound, the freedom of wireless technology, and more, you can play your own way no matter where you are.
Get in the room
When it comes to powerful, impactful sound, there's nothing quite like the excitement and dynamic experience of being in the room with your amp. Having to play through headphones can often take that feeling away, leaving you feeling like your sound is missing something. That's all about to change...
The Waza-Air Headphone System injects the excitement, the natural resonance, and the sense of movement back into your sound. From the moment you start playing with the Waza-Air system, you might even forget that you're wearing headphones at all.
An intelligent gyro sensor has been built into the headphones that tracks the movement of your head. This works in harmony with powerful 3D algorithms that give your sound instant spatial realism, perfectly replicating the feeling of being stood in front of your amplifier. And the best part? It's all done automatically. So get plugged in and start playing.
The world in the palm of your hand
The world might be a bit of a stretch. But it'll certainly feel that way when you start sculpting your sound. Boasting the tones and controls from Boss' renowned stage-class Katana amplifiers, the tonal possibilities at your disposal are almost endless. You can customise your sound the way you want to, or you can choose from a diverse selection of ready-to-play presets. And it can all be accessed from the free Boss Tone Studio app for iOS and Android. You can even store up to six of your favourite setups directly to your system and recall them using dedicated buttons.
You have five different amplifier types to choose from. Classic cleans to searing high gain, and everything in between. And there's even a full-range voice for bass and electro-acoustic guitars. Whichever one you choose, you can customise your tone with ease, and take advantage of over 50 effect types to give you even more personalisation. Modulation, delays, reverb and more are right at your fingertips, and each one has been specifically optimised for the Waza-Air's unique spatial sonic experience.
Immersive realism
The system's customisation options don't just stop with amplifier and effect choices either. You can even choose where you're playing. Whilst the Waza-Air Guitar Headphone System can't magically transport you to the Bahamas, it can put you in a virtual environment with precisely crafted sonic characteristics for a truly realistic sound.
Choose one of three options - Surround, Static, and Stage. Each one offers a unique experience to give you the sound you're looking for. Surround mode is akin to playing in a recording studio, immersing you in a crisp, clear sounding room for a studio-quality sound. If you want even more realism, choose Static mode. This is where your movement makes even more difference, as the combined amplifier and room sound automatically changes based on where you move your head. And with Stage mode, the only thing you'll be missing is the crowd in front of you. This mode puts you in the spotlight, propelling your sound from a virtual backline behind you. And you can blend in ambience to enhance the realistic response of your sound. Better still, with the system's added Bluetooth connectivity, you can stream songs and backing tracks directly from your device and have them play back from your virtual amplifier through the headphones.
Boss EV-1-WL Wireless Expression Pedal
The Boss EV-1-WL Wireless Expression Pedal presents a pedal from the future. Featuring Bluetooth technology, the EV-1-WL liberates players' creative process with the freedom of wireless. This means you can connect it to your BOSS Eurus GS-1 guitar, Waza-Air, and any other device that supports Bluetooth MIDI. You can even connect to your mobile device and inject some expression control into your music-making.
But what about those devices without Bluetooth MIDI? Well, fear not. Coming equipped with both USB and TRS MIDI connectivity options, the EV-1-WL is exceptional in delivering the control and nuance of a traditional expression pedal, too. So whether you're adding a little flair to your instruments, or discovering new sonic possibilities - this is a pedal that utilises endless potential for your sound. Supporting communication with Roland WM-1 and WM-1D wireless MIDI adaptors as well, this unique pedal is the next step in Boss's vision for performance free of cables. Are you ready to take the next step?
