Horrible app...horrible experience. Not what I expected from Roland/Boss

### 4/5 — Update your Device

*2018-05-25*

Need to update your GT-1000 to 1.10 for it to connect.
Needs landscapes mode badly

### 1/5 — 1.0.1バグが増えました

*2018-05-24, version 1.0.3*

コミュニケーションエラーが連発して使えなくなりました。
本体のみでもおきますが、アプリ連携しているとフットスイッチが反応しなくなります。
その場合再起動すれば治りますが、p01ー1に戻ります。
演奏中なら最悪です。
gt1000ステージ外に投げられました。
しかし、壊れませんでした。頑丈さは評価できます。
アプリの評価ではありませんが。

### 4/5 — Great that you can edit on phone

*2018-05-19*

Great idea to have the ability to program the GT-1000 on phone. 

Room for improvement:
- when importing back from backup to GR-1000, the instructions are not easy to understand. 
-needs horizontal view
-once you save a stomp box, I wish it would refer to it by the name I gave it. 
-this one is less about the app but the GT-1000-BRING BACK THE MANUAL MODE!!

### 1/5 — コミュニケーションエラー
