A Breakthrough Bass Experience through Waza Innovation

Like Waza-Air has done for guitarists, Waza-Air Bass delivers a totally new personal playing solution for bassists through cutting-edge BOSS innovation. Far more than a simple headphone amp, Waza-Air Bass fuses premium amp, effects, and wireless technologies with dynamic 3D sound, delivering a unique bass amplification experience that’s never been available until now.

Hyper-realistic 3D environments

Headphone amps are great for when you want to sit down for long solo practice sessions or for playing into the wee hours without annoying your family, roommates, or neighbors. However, they can lack the visceral feel of playing through an amp in a room. Waza-Air Bass restores that sensation with cutting-edge 3D algorithms that drop you into a virtual performance space. You can choose from three hyper-realistic environments: Surround mode, which offers the immersive experience of playing in a world-class recording studio; Static mode, which uses Waza-Air Bass’ integrated gyro sensor to track your head movements and change the combined amp and room sounds as if you were moving within a physical space; and Stage mode, which simulates performing at a live venue by placing you in front of a virtual backline.

Stage-class amp and effects models

Waza-Air Bass comes packed with five different amp types and over 30 effects optimized for bass. Dial up a range of tones from chiming cleans to searing high-gain distortion, and drench them in reverb, delay, or modulation effects — all of which are optimized for Waza-Air Bass’ virtual environments. The amps and effects are fully customizable, and numerous ready-to-play presets can be accessed with BOSS’s free BOSS Tone Studio app. Crafted the perfect sound? Go ahead and store it to any one of Waza-Air Bass’ six onboard memory slots for future use. Plus, there are 10 onboard acoustic drum grooves and an advanced metronome with 32 rhythm variations to make practice an engaging event.
