The Valeton GP-100VT is a compact multi-effects processor built on the GP-100 design. It puts amp modeling, cabinet simulation and a range of effects into a unit sized like a pedal, aimed at players who want one box instead of a board of individual multi-effects pedals. Pedal of the Day reviewed it in August 2021 as "the newest unit from Valeton."12
What it does
The GP-100VT carries over 50 effects, and Pedal of the Day's review names the categories: dynamic EQ, overdrive, modulation, delay and reverb. It also includes 40 IR cabinet models, meaning impulse-response-based speaker simulations you can use to run the unit direct into a mixer, interface or powered speaker.2
The GP-100 platform it is built on specifies 24-bit 44.1kHz signal processing and allows up to 9 effects at once.3 The GP-100VT adds an editable effect chain, so you can arrange the effect blocks in the order you want rather than accepting a fixed sequence.1
Controls and layout
Pedal of the Day describes the layout as two footswitches, a couple of control knobs and a mini-sized pedal on the right. Those controls let you scroll through presets, change parameters, control volume or expression and route your audio.2
GP-100VT and GP-100
Valeton describes the GP-100VT as a unit that "looks futuristic, has modern amenities and is able to produce classic sounds."2 Its enclosure is "relatively small for an effects unit of this magnitude," according to the same review.2 The single control is used for "allowing you to scroll through presets, change parameters, control volume/expression and route your audio."2
Size and pedalboard fit
The enclosure is, in Pedal of the Day's words, "relatively small for an effects unit of this magnitude," and the review concludes that "its size ensures it can fit onto any pedalboard, big or small."2 For a player, that means the GP-100VT can sit on a board in place of several individual pedals, or travel as a single grab-and-go unit.

Questions
How many effects does the Valeton GP-100VT have?
Pedal of the Day's review counts over 50 effects, covering dynamic EQ, overdrive, modulation, delay and reverb. The GP-100 design it is based on allows up to 9 effects at once, and the GP-100VT adds an editable effect chain so you can arrange those blocks in the order you want.
Does the Valeton GP-100VT have cabinet simulation?
Yes. The Pedal of the Day review lists 40 IR cabinet models among the unit's features, so you can run it direct into a PA, audio interface or headphone amp without a guitar cabinet behind it.
How many footswitches does the GP-100VT have?
Two. Pedal of the Day describes two footswitches, a couple of control knobs and a mini-sized pedal on the right that together determine the sounds you make. The footswitches and controls let you scroll through presets, change parameters, control volume or expression and route your audio.
What is the difference between the Valeton GP-100 and GP-100VT?
Valeton describes the GP-100VT as a multi-effects processor based on the acclaimed GP-100 design. The GP-100 is the full-size unit in the range, while the GP-100VT is the variant built around that same platform in a smaller enclosure, with the 40 IR cabinet models noted in the review.
Will the Valeton GP-100VT fit on a small pedalboard?
Pedal of the Day found that its size ensures it can fit onto any pedalboard, big or small, and called the enclosure relatively small for an effects unit of this magnitude. It is designed to sit on a board like a large pedal rather than a rack unit.
