Questions & Answers

What kind of cord does it have?

As long as you plug the amp into the cord, it comes with one.

Can the Roland G8 be used with The roland jc-e foot control is a great way to train your foot What is the problem if I plug in a 40 amp appliance and it does ?

There's no compatibility, the JC-48 is not compatible With the 40, you can utilize the FS-2 It's either the 5L or the FS-1000

The Roland Micro Cube works with it, right?

The answer is "no" I just attended the GA today. A few of the gear FC works with include BOSS Katana, BOSS Waza Amp, Roland Blues Cube (Roland Artists, Tour), Roland Cube 40GX, Roland Cube 80GX, Roland GA and Roland GA-V2. The 112th General Assembly of Georgia -

Are there any plans to support Roland Cube 60 in the future? Is that okay?

There is a difference between those two models

If you have a Katana, it will probably make a difference to your life
3/5

You can change channels by pressing the footswitch. According to its description, it works. There's no way I can give it a higher rating because I feel that this device should have come pre-installed on cannot change effects within a channel. I was under the impression that You should configure each channel as you like it, and not as if you have three booster effects on one channel. If you have three booster effects on one channel you would have to have three channels with one booster effect or else you would have to cycle through them. As I mentioned before, I don't consider this to be an incredible item and I think it should have been included in Several of the other modelers are similar in the sense that the foot controllers have to be purchased separately, however if you look at the foot controllers that Peavey sells with its Vypyr series amps, they have a lot more functionality. As far as I am concerned, I feel like I just paid for the remainder of my Katana membership.

It is ideal if the footprint is small
5/5

As I often use it with the Boss Katana, I will describe how I use it here. It is ideal if the footprint is small. used the Boss Katana, so I had to apply stickers included with the amp in order for me to use it Identify each button with a label. There could be a bit more brightness in the lighting, An amazing amp, the Katana, is the best amplifier I've ever heard. There is no focus on fancy bells and whistles (although the amp would sound great with a few more of them), but rather an amp that sounds great on the "real world". The reason I put it in quotes is for the benefit of amp manufacturers, who don't live in the "real world" but instead build amps to sound good in music stores, which are far from it. I keep seeing the GA, however, and I am reminded of the ugliest aspect of Katana every time I look at it. Despite its very simple appearance, the amp contains much more under the hood than what can be accessed with this By buying the pedal, I can conveniently access the four preset channels (called LiveSets by Boss, and disregard the panel settings) and the panel, which does show the settings on the panel. Within each of the five preset options, you can turn them on and off with a single tap. In short, it's quite efficient in what it does. To tweak the presets, you will need to connect a computer and USB cable. You can set up presets from the panel. There aren't any apps for both iOS and Android that I know of, and I don't expect anyone to come up with a hack to make it work. I'd like to conclude by saying that Even with a bare bones GA- they are capable of a great deal pedals are essential for Katana owners who want to use the amplifier's channels after taking the amp out of the case. You can, however, use the panel settings and your own effects pedals to ensure you get the best results.

I love it! The Boss Katana 100 uses this part
5/5

This came from Boss, not Roland, so I didn't have to add stickers for pedal switches as I normally would with Roland switches. I was really happy when I got this because I didn't have to add stickers for pedal switches as I did with the Katana. I chose it because it has Boss branding so it matches my amplifier. comes with an amp-compatible cable that is long enough for plugging into it. Pedals like this one are an absolute necessity for those looking to get the most from their Katana 100 or higher. Channel preset switching is fast and easy with this feature. The effects you have in your patch can be turned on and off through this button. It seems that the quality of the pedal is very good since it is metal and has clickless switch controls. As an additional bonus, you can change your delay on the fly by tapping on the tap. This function gives you the ability to jump between each of your 4 preset channels and switch the effect on and off individually. You can, therefore, run a booster, a delay, and a flanger while having it on multiple gain options, and then control each separately. The amp's knobs can be accessed from the pedal's panel, but you can also adjust them directly on the amp. In addition, if you have a Katana connected to your PC, you can get even more from your pedal, including more tones, presets, etc. Should you own a Boos katana, this has to be on your must-do list.

Boss Katana models 100 and up will benefit from this
5/5

It can take a lot of punishment. As well as my Katana 100, I use this. Since I am a musician who uses a Helix when I gig, I am accustomed to having channels based on stomp boxes. On jam days, I put this on the floor and my trusty TC polytune. . . and off we go to jam. The construction is very well made and robust. The pedal comes with stickers you place on the pedal that align with the amp if this is being used with one of the Katana amps. Even easier to access the tap tempo on the Katana thanks to this device.

The must-have accessory for any Katana owner
5/5

As with every boss product, this thing is built like a tank and will give you a good run for your money if you don't smash it up This tool allows you to select channels or cycle effects and the effects loop, which makes for a useful tool.
Add an expression and volume pedal to your amp and you have a great setup to get the most out of it. Thank you, boss, for creating such an awesome.

The construction is good, but the price is excessive
5/5

I tested this button on the Boss Katana Head, and I found it to be rugged and worked flawlessly. The switch below is what you need to switch effects on and off. There is only one thing that's wrong with this the price could be less, but everyone sells them for the same amount. This is already 1/3 the price of a 100 watt bulb, isn't it? The whole thing is kind.

We had a lot of fun
3/5

This shouldn't be surprise if you know it in advance. It comes with incorrect markings/labels that you must overlay onto the foot controllers to make them correct. My Katana 100 shipped with a set of stickers that you overlay onto the foot controllers to make them correct. The amp will change to CH 3 if you press CH 1, otherwise. We had a lot of fun. Katana amps present a challenge in advance you may not know about, and you are likely to get frustrated quickly as a result. In this situation, Boss/Roland have no reason to delay fixing this problem.

In the pre- The Katana 100 is labeled as being for this The Katana 100 goes great with this
5/5

It was my intention to re-label the pedal by using the decal included with the Katana but I was surprised to discover it had already been done that way. I am not sure what the term non-means It is the Katana owners who need to do it. As a Katana user, I am able to select up to eight different pre-sets With the panel, you have the option of programming pedal combinations. As an added bonus, I am able to switch on and off any of the pre-installed effects The panel enables you to select and adjust the tempo of taps. Using my Katana eliminates the need to have multiple pedals.
