The update history entry reads "[ Ver.1.1.0 ] MAY 2024" and states: "Compatible with the GM-800 Ver.1.10 or later."¹

The driver is the Windows component used when the GM-800 runs alongside Boss's editing software. Boss lists the versions it says should be used together: GM-800 System Program Ver.1.10 or later, BOSS TONE STUDIO for GM-800 Ver.1.1.0 for Windows or later, and GM-800 Driver Ver.1.1.0 for Windows 10/11¹.

System requirements are Windows 11 or Windows 10 on a Windows-compatible PC with a USB port¹. Boss states that Windows 10 Mobile is not supported, ARM-based PCs are not supported, the driver cannot be used in a virtual Windows environment, and Windows running on a Mac is not supported¹.

The download is a file that is extracted after download; the extracted folder contains the installer "Setup.exe," and Boss points users to the "Readme.htm" file in that folder for installation and usage details¹. Boss notes that the contents of Readme.htm may differ from the web page and directs users to the page for the latest information¹. The software is covered by the Roland Software License Agreement, between the user and Roland Corporation¹.

Boss gives no price for the driver on the page¹.
