Re: "FUCKING YES!" - the Boss RE-2 hype thread
Think I saw that amount as well. Boss making the RE-202 is actually a (first world) problem for me. Now that there are TWO cool pedals it makes me have to choose one, which I don't want to do.
Edit: who am I kidding? After two youtube videos I quickly succumbed to gas and have already pre-ordered the RE-202.

Re: "FUCKING YES!" - the Boss RE-2 hype thread
In the UK so ymmv, but looks like the RE-2 is going to be £193 and the 202 is £308, so a little cheaper than the Volante

More I'm looking else where, the more that seems like an outlier though. Wonder if Roland might get them to bump that up, so could be worth getting an order in now.

I just preordered the 202 from CME for $400, with an estimated ship date of May 16. While that’s a lot of money for a Boss pedal, it’s a helluva lot less than what the originals are selling for these days, and there’s extra features and no maintenance. I’m terrible at predicting this kind of thing, but part of me wonders if this is one of those pedals that will end up being worth a fortune at some point. (Not that I’m buying it for that reason, the thought just crossed my mind.)
The cool thing about fretless is you can hit a note...and then renegotiate.

Yeah I've ordered a 202. I've wanted a 201 for the longest time and I'm sure this is the closest thing I can ever hope to get to it, without all the hassle that implies.

Also this may be a dumb question, but do the different tape heads correspond to specific subdivisions? I imagine the answer is yes but I haven't seen it explained anywhere specifically.

Essentially, yes. The modes turn on and off combinations of the sequential playback heads, giving you different rhythmic options.stevejamsecono wrote: ↑Thu Mar 24, 2022 7:37 amAlso this may be a dumb question, but do the different tape heads correspond to specific subdivisions?
