Valeton GP-50 Launch: Pro-Level Tone, NAM & IR Loading in a Compact Pedal
Everest Music is delighted to announce the arrival of the Valeton GP-50 Dual-Footswitch Multi-Effects Processor.
A powerful new addition to Valeton’s acclaimed GP series, and one of the most exciting compact guitar processors to land in Ireland this year. Designed for modern guitarists who demand studio-quality tone without a bulky floor unit, the GP-50 strikes the perfect balance between portability and performance. Whether you’re gigging weekly, recording at home, or building a fly-rig that can handle anything, the GP-50 delivers serious flexibility in a stompbox-sized format.
What Is the Valeton GP-50?
The Valeton GP-50 is a dual-footswitch multi-effects processor with NAM (Neural Amp Modeler) compatibility, IR loading, and over 100 HD digital effects, all housed in a rugged metal enclosure.
It builds on the simplicity of the GP-5 while introducing many of the advanced features players expect from larger processors — making it a genuine sweet spot in the Valeton lineup.
NAM & IR Loading – Big Tone, Small Footprint
One of the standout features of the GP-50 is its support for Neural Amp Modeler (NAM) files. NAM technology allows players to load highly detailed amp captures created by the global guitar community.
- 50 curated NAM models preloaded
- Up to 80 NAM files storable
- Supports third-party cabinet IRs (up to 20)
This means you can bring authentic, studio-quality amp tones to rehearsals, gigs, or straight into your DAW — without carrying a large modeller or laptop-based rig.
For Irish gigging musicians playing pubs, clubs, churches, or theatres, the GP-50 offers a practical way to go amp-less while still retaining feel and dynamics.
Powerful Multi-Effects Engine
As a multi-effects processor, the GP-50 is seriously capable:
- Over 100 HD effects powered by Valeton’s advanced digital modelling
- Up to 9 effect modules running simultaneously
- Flexible routing for select modules
- Built-in looper and drum machine
From classic overdrives and delays to modern ambient textures, the GP-50 covers everything from traditional rock and blues to worship, pop, and experimental styles.
Designed for Real-World Use
Despite its compact size, the GP-50 is designed with usability firmly in mind.
A dual-footswitch layout, combined with dedicated knobs and buttons, makes on-the-fly editing fast and intuitive. The bright 1.77” colour LCD screen clearly displays your signal chain and parameters, even on darker stages.
Connectivity is equally impressive:
- USB-C 2-in / 2-out audio interface with re-amp
- Compatible with Windows, macOS, iOS & Android
- USB MIDI + TRS MIDI In/Thru
- Bluetooth 5.0 for wireless editing and audio playback via the Valeton app
This makes the GP-50 just as at home on a pedalboard as it is on a desk or recording setup.
Rechargeable Battery – Perfect for Gigging & Travel
One of the most practical features of the GP-50 is its built-in rechargeable battery, offering up to 4 hours of play time.
- Standard 9V centre-negative pedalboard supply
- USB 5V power
For buskers, fly dates, or minimalist setups, this flexibility is a huge advantage.
GP-50 vs GP-5 vs GP-200 – Where Does It Fit?
- GP-5 – Ultra-compact, simple multi-effects pedal
- GP-50 – The sweet spot: NAM & IR loading, USB audio, Bluetooth, rechargeable battery
- GP-200 – Full-size floor processor with deeper editing and expanded I/O
The GP-50 is ideal for players who want professional modelling features without the size or complexity of a full floor unit. The Valeton GP-50 is available now from Everest Music, your Irish specialist for guitars, pedals, and pro audio gear. Whether you’re upgrading your current rig or exploring amp-less setups for the first time, the GP-50 offers outstanding value, modern features, and real-world practicality.
