More Sounds, More Versatility

The Katana MkII range of stage amps further enhances the progress made by the previous generation, building on the same sounds that made the range an international success. If you liked the first Katana amps, you'll love the Katana MkII amps. And if you're not familiar with this range, be prepared for sounds, sensations and versatility far superior to what can be expected in this price range.

Five Amp Features,Ten Sounds In Total

The five primary amp features offer a wide range of sounds, from organic vintage sounds to modern high-gain sounds to sounds optimized for electro-acoustic guitars. They are now more numerous thanks to new variations that will allow you to benefit from new sound modeling options.

Five effects at a time

The Katana MkII now incorporates five simultaneous categories of effects, providing you with the built-in power of a massive pedalboard. The Booster, Mod, FX, Delay, and Reverb independent sections are available with three variations for each, providing 15 ready-to-play effects to choose from. Connecting them to BOSS Tone Studio allows you to go even further in terms of settings: more than 60 types of effect are available, which can be placed in different orders within four different channels.

Powerful sound inAll Circumstances

Featuring the Tube Logic BOSS concept, a Katana MkII produces the authentic output distortion characteristics of tube amps, with the sound becoming richer and the response changing as the volume increases. But unlike tube amps, the variable power Power Control of the Katana MkII makes it possible to find the ideal sound at various volumes, and not to risk being chased from a bar or home! Adjust the volume according to where you play, from the stage to your room, while enjoying a distorted sound of lamps.

Amplify Your External Devices

The Katana-50 MkII ensures as a standalone amp, but it also excels as a powered baffle for your preamp, amp modeling or multi-effect. Connecting to the Power Amp In port on the back panel cuts the Katana MkII's preamp and effects, giving you direct access to the Tube Logic section and the Power Control. And in BOSS Tone Studio, the input can be optimized for different instruments with high-pass filter and adjustable gain.

A unique reminder button forPersonal Settings

One of the most powerful features of the Katana-50 MkII is its ability to memorize channel and effect settings in Tone Setting memories, in order to instantly recall them. When you have adjusted your sound from the front panel controllers, it is easy to save the values obtained at the touch of a button. Four Tone Setting memories (two banks of two) are available, easily accessible on the front. It is also possible to connect external footswitches to access them on the foot during a concert.

Sounds Ready for Mixing

The Katana-50 Mk-II offers USB outputs and headphone/recording with mic sound simulation, allowing you to send a ready-to-mix amp sound into music creation software or headphones. Direct sound can be modeled using three different Air Feel mood settings, accessible in BOSS Tone Studio. Two-channel USB operation allows you to enjoy true stereo with modulation, Delay and Reverb effects, as well as the Katana's EQ.

ImprovementsBOSS Tone Studio

BOSS Tone Studio evolved with Katana MkII amps. Its interface has been refreshed, and many settings have been placed on the main screen to simplify operations. A Pedal FX category is now available, making it easier to assign the effects of Wah-Wah and Bend to an expression pedal. And if you have a first-generation Katana amp, you can import your patches into a Katana MkII.
