Description
A patch editor and librarian for your BOSS Katana amplifier.
Katana Librarian allows you to connect your phone or tablet to your BOSS Katana amplifier via a Bluetooth adapter (sold separately), unlocking your amp’s full potential!
The free version of the app allows you to test your connection and load the built-in demo patches. A single in-app purchase is offered if you wish to unlock the full feature set, which will allow you to:
- Download patches from your amplifier.
- Modify the patch parameters; includes support for all effect types; the editor also changes in real-time as you adjust the parameters on your amp.
- Organize your patches into groups. Tag your favorite patches, or create a set list for a live performance.
- Import and export MkI, MkII and Gen3 .TSL files.
- Rename and delete patches.
- Write patches to the amplifier's channels
- Emulate the functionality of a GA-FC pedal (even on a KATANA-50)

Ratings and Reviews
Great app with 1 issue
Love the app - so much better than the BOSS app. However in the past few weeks I have not been able to change patch from within a group - I have to go back to the main list. Happens on the app on iPad and iPhone. Hoping this gets resolved soon and gets back to 5 stars!

I’m a blind guitar player. Without this, I would not have bought any boss Katana amp.
This year I recently start playing a lot of electric guitar. I use VoiceOver, a screen reader, for ios, to navigate around for the the different effects. I must say that this is super valuable for me. Without this amp, I would not have understand everything an electric guitar can do. Thank you very much for the developer of this app. This is one of those things that the developer have the heart to include everybody in the product, not only to sell something. The only request I have for this app is for the developer to keep improving this app with the voice over compatibility along the way. Without this, I don’t know how I’m gonna be playing electric guitar that has multi effects feature in it.
A Great Tool on the gig For Katana Users!!
I have been using the Katana amps professionally since they were released and I love them…perhaps the most versatile single amp I’ve ever owned with! Enter The Katana Librarian app… it is a big step forward in getting the most out of this amp platform as it has allowed me to adjust the internal parameters at the gig from an iPad instead of hauling and dealing with a computer @ the gig:-0
Sean the developer is diligent with the updates and fixes and I encourage the Katana community to buy this app and help him to continue the development of this very useful tool!
