Open up a whole new world of possibility for your Boss Katana with the XSonic Airstep Smart MIDI Controller for THR. With this handy little device you can unlock the full capability of your THR right at your feet!

Straight out of the box it is set for 3 modes of operation:

Mode 1 – 5 Channel switcher. Each footswitch is assigned to one of the 5 patches saved in the Yamaha THR for seamless channel switching on-the-fly.
Mode 2 – Effects and Channel switching. Footswitches 1-3 are assigned to Compression, Effect & Delay respectively. Footswitches 4 and 5 allow you to toggle up and down between channels. This versatile set up allows you to recall all of your favourite sounds instantly
Mode 3 – Effects and Channel Toggle. Similar to mode 2, except footswitch 4 is assigned to Reverb, meaning that you can only toggle up through your presets with footswitch 5. If you want access to all of your effects like an all-in-one pedalboard, this mode has you covered!

If you want more personalised functionality you can wirelessly edit your tones on the Airstep THR using your smartphone.

Delay

A delay pedal records your signal and plays it back after a set time, creating echoes that can range from tight, slapback repeats to long, atmospheric trails. It’s one of the most versatile effects, used to thicken tones, add rhythmic depth, or build spacious, ambient layers. Analogue delays offer warm, decaying repeats that blend naturally with your tone, while digital units provide pristine echoes with precise control over time, feedback, and mix levels.

From classic rockabilly and tape-style echoes to modern looping and shimmer effects, delay pedals have become essential tools for shaping sound. They can make solos soar, rhythms pulse, or transform simple chord progressions into cinematic textures. Whether used subtly to add dimension or boldly to create soundscapes, a good delay pedal can completely redefine the feel and atmosphere of your music.

MIDI

MIDI pedals use the Musical Instrument Digital Interface standard to communicate with other guitar pedals, effects units, and hardware. They allow control over presets, parameters, and switching across multiple devices from a single controller. MIDI integration makes it possible to build complex, synchronised pedal setups while keeping control simple and consistent.

New

This is brand new, fresh in, and a UK warranty is included. New Gear always comes from trusted UK music retailers.

Reverb

A reverb pedal is like the rich sauce that ties every flavour on the plate into one smooth experience. It adds depth, warmth, and atmosphere — the sonic equivalent of a perfectly reduced glaze that lingers on the tongue. Whether you’re after the subtle ambience of a cosy café (spring or plate reverb) or the grand echoes of a cathedral (hall or shimmer reverb), this is where your tone breathes and expands. A touch of reverb can turn a dry sound into something lush and inviting — but pour on too much, and it’s all you can taste. Used with finesse, it’s the finishing touch that transforms your tone from plain to unforgettable.

Switcher

Switcher refers to a guitar pedal or pedalboard unit that allows multiple pedals or signal paths to be controlled from a single device. A switcher can turn several pedals on or off at once, change signal order, or recall preset combinations, helping players manage complex pedal setups cleanly and reliably, especially in live situations.
