I just got a GS-10 and its distortion sounds are an improvement on those in my VG8-ex.  Why is there so little info on the GS-10?  What is up?

From about the same era as the GT-6 (circa 2001)
with built in speakers for home/studio recording with USB port,
and came with what I believe is the first Boss patch editor software created.

Free "GR-55 FloorBoard" editor software from https://sourceforge.net/projects/grfloorboard/

Thanks, I know about the general info. I mean it is interesting there are very few reviews and no patch exchange.  A search of google turns up very little.

COSM-Driven Desktop Guitar Processor!
Includes amp models for guitar and bass!
The GS-10 benefits from BOSS' most advanced COSM amp modeling technology. Derived from the popular GT-6 and GT-6B, these models give guitar and bass players access to a range of vintage and modern amps-45 types total! Guitarists can plug into old favorites like "Clean Twin," "MS1959 (I)," "T-AMP" and "JC-120" while bass players can try out "CONCERT 810," "SESSION," "BASS 360," "T.E." and more. With so many choices, you'll never have a problem finding the right tone.

BOSS GS-10 at a Glance:
A complete selection of multi-effects
A powerful "bridge" between your guitar and computer
Convenient monitoring anywhere you go
Customize your amps with COSM
Tweak your tone with a click
Make recordings on your PC

A complete selection of multi-effects.
Whether you're looking for delay, modulation and reverb effects, or independent compression and EQ, the GS-10 can do all of it and more. In fact, you'll find everything from COSM overdrive/distortion (22 types of classic distortion and overdrive pedals) and wah modeling to more unique effects like Harmonist, Defretter, Rotary and Uni-V. Up to 11 effects can be used simultaneously, and editing is a breeze using the front-panel knobs or the included GS-10 Editor software.

A powerful "bridge" between your guitar and computer.
Includes GS-10 Editor and Cakewalk Music Creator. To make editing easier, BOSS put special GS-10 Editor software right in the box. Now you can see each of the GS-10's effect blocks displayed as individual pedals-all with "virtual" knobs for easy tweaking via mouse. The GS-10 also includes Cakewalk Music Creator software, so you can make your first recording right away.

Convenient monitoring anywhere you go.
The GS-10's built-in stereo speaker system provides easy monitoring whether you're recording to a computer or just jamming. Now you can make professional-quality recordings with nothing more than your guitar, the GS-10 and a laptop. Or get killer tone when rehearsing without having to lug around a practice amp. Lots of handy connections.

The GS-10 comes with a S/PDIF digital output, making it easy to connect to a variety of professional recording gear. An Auxiliary input allows you to connect a CD player or drum machine for practice, while an EXP/CTL jack lets you connect optional pedals and footswitches for enhanced performance capabilities.

Customize your amps with COSM.
While the GS-10's COSM amp models are designed to faithfully re-create the sound of the original, they can also be fully customized. That's because COSM technology models every component of the amp-from the circuits to the speaker cabinet and even mic types and positions. Unlike other types of modeling, which can only imitate amp sounds, COSM has the advantage of allowing you to create your own custom configuration.

Tweak your tone with a click.
BOSS' GS-10 Editor software gives you a sleek-looking graphic interface capable of controlling all of the onboard effects. Arranged as a series of compact pedals, the GS-10 Editor takes the mystery out of programming multi-effects by breaking it down into the individual components guitar players are used to working with. Effects can be re-routed in the signal chain by dragging and dropping the pedals.

Make recordings on your PC.
For recording, the GS-10 includes Music Creator software from Cakewalk. Recognized as one of the easiest PC-based recording applications, Music Creator lets you focus on making music instead of complicated software. Intuitive point-and-click tools let you quickly arrange and mix your music while taking advantage of special loop-based tools and DXi soft synths. It's the perfect complement to the GS-10!

BOSS' ultimate guitar effects system with onboard stereo speakers and USB

Cool, thanks.  I have been using it as a preamp into the effects loop return of a 100 watt Marshall tube amp.
