Valeton has announced the release of the GP-150 and GP-180 multi-effects processors, two compact units built on the company's second-generation HD modeling architecture¹². The GP-150 carries a suggested retail price of $169.99 and the GP-180 $179.99².

Both units offer more than 200 effects built on the new engine, which Valeton says runs at a 48 kHz sample rate, along with a redesigned cabinet simulation algorithm³¹. Each can load up to 12 effect modules in any order, with 200 patch slots and 100 factory patches³¹. The GP-180 supports Valeton's SnapTone technology for converting and loading NAM files, and third-party IRs at 1024 and 2048 sample points, storing up to 100 SnapTone files (50 curated selections included) and 20 third-party IR slots³.

The GP-180 has three footswitches; the GP-150 has two footswitches and an expression pedal². Both add a dedicated master volume knob, color-changing footswitch rings and multiple status indicators, and can toggle up to six effect modules with dedicated tap tempo and CTRL switches¹. The right output uses a TRS balanced connection, and two expansion ports support expression pedals, external switches and MIDI³¹. MIDI control is available via USB, Bluetooth and 6.35 mm TRS³.

Both include a built-in 3000 mAh battery rated for over six hours at screen brightness level II, charged through USB-C or a DC port, and a 2.4-inch color LCD³². Each works as a 6-in/4-out audio interface and pairs with Valeton's app over Bluetooth for tone editing, patch management and updates³². The GP-180's looper records up to 180 seconds and its drum machine has more than 100 patterns³.
