Product description Boss RE-202
The Roland RE-201 Space Echo is considered one of the most innovative and inspiring delay effect units in music history.
Nearly 50 years later, the distinctive echoes and unique character of the RE-201 are brought back to life in the BOSS RE-202 Space Echo Digital Delay Pedal in the form of a compact, portable package.
But the RE-202 is no mere clone: all 11 original echo combinations are available, with a fourth tape head providing an additional twelfth combination.
The classic Bass, Treble and Repeat Rate controls are familiar to experienced users, but are also easily accessible to novices for that special Space Echo charm. The additional Saturation and Wow and Flutter controls add even more timbre and modulation.
Four built-in presets for instant recall of favorite sounds. Up to 127 presets can be recalled via midi.
Modern guitarists, keyboardists and studio owners looking for added flexibility and functionality to their digital delays will love the RE-202.

Important questions about the article Boss RE-202
Question: Does the BOSS RE-202 use real tape?
Answer: No. The pedal digitally models the sound and behaviour of the Roland RE-201, including tape saturation, tape age and speed fluctuations. There is no need to replace tape or maintain a mechanical tape-echo unit.
Question: How many echo combinations does the RE-202 offer?
Answer: It provides 12 echo combinations: the 11 modes of the RE-201 plus one additional combination with a fourth virtual tape head.
Question: Is the RE-202 suitable for keyboards and other line-level equipment as well as guitar?
Answer: Yes. Its selectable input mode can be set for instrument or line level, so it can also be used in keyboard and studio setups.
Question: Can I use the BOSS RE-202 in a stereo setup?
Answer: Yes. The RE-202 has true stereo inputs and outputs, and its reverb section also operates in stereo.
Question: Which reverb types does the RE-202 offer in addition to echo?
Answer: In addition to the modelled RE-201 spring reverb, Hall, Plate, Room and Ambience are available. The reverb section can be adjusted independently of the echo.
Question: How many sounds can I save and recall via MIDI?
Answer: Four memory slots are available directly on the pedal. Up to 127 memory slots can be stored and selected via MIDI Program Change.
Question: Does the RE-202 support tap tempo when switching sounds?
Answer: Yes. Tap tempo sets the delay time to the song tempo; the selectable carryover function preserves repeats when changing memory slots.
Question: Can the RE-202 be controlled with external footswitches or an expression pedal?
Answer: Yes. External footswitches, an expression pedal and MIDI extend operation, for example for parameter control and recalling memory slots.
Question: Is the RE-202 suitable for parallel effects paths?
Answer: Yes. The dry signal can be muted, allowing the pedal to output only the effects signal for parallel routing and studio setups.
Question: Is a power supply included?
Answer: Yes. The package includes an AC adaptor, rubber feet and the manual.
