BOSS IR-200

The BOSS IR-200 is a pedal-style amp simulator with premium guitar and bass amp models covering the full range of genres. This flexible stompbox also includes an impulse response loader with a large buffer of built-in, high-resolution IRs and space for 128 Users IRs.

It is possible to run up to two IRs simultaneously in mono or stereo, while a range of onboard EQs allow detailed sound shaping. In addition, the unit features studio-quality room, studio, and reverb ambience effects that can warp any sound from subtle to abspaced.

The IR-200 features a state-of-the-art DSP with 32-bit AD/DA, 32-bit floating point processing, and a 96kHz sampling rate with crystal clear sound characteristics. A built-in USB audio interface and extensive footswitch control support round out the IR-200's features.

For live performance, studio recording and practice purposes, the BOSS IR-200 takes the concept of direct sound to a new level.
