Questions & Answers

Can it be paired with a cord?

There is a cord attached so you can plug it

Can the Roland game be used for The roland jc-fc is used for foot control work What if I plug it in and it will not operate at 40 amps?

It is not compatible, the JC- has a different interface A 40 can work with an FS-400 If you prefer the FS-05L, you can do that here

I don't have enough money Assembled by "the GA" uses the Boss Katana , Boss Waza Amp , Roland Cube 40GX, Roland Cube 80GX, Roland GA-100 , Roland Blues Cube (Artist, Tour) , and Roland Quad . The number for this city is 112, Georgia

A Katana may not change your life, but it can make it more interesting
3/5

It switches between channels with a footswitch. This product does what it is supposed to do. This is something that should have come with this amp, and I cannot give it a higher rating for that reason. There is no way to change effects within a channel, I thought there was an option. The amp will have to cycle through those if you have more than three booster effects on one channel, or you will have to set every channel accordingly. For example, if you have three booster effects on one channel, you will need three channels with one booster effect each. As I said, this thing isn't all that amazing, and I feel that it should have been paired Yes, other models allow for a foot controller to be purchased separately but, if you compare the functionality of what Peavey offers for its Vypyr series of amplifiers, the board offers a lot more than this model. Having just paid for the remainder of my Katana, I feel as if I just got my money's worth.

I like the idea of a small footprint
5/5

Specifically, I use it to use my Boss Katana. I like the idea of a small footprint. The amp has stickers you are supposed to put on it with the Boss Katana, so I used the stickers that came with the amp to re-install Make sure the buttons are labeled. It would be better if the lights were brighter. A well designed amp, the Katana is beautiful in every detail. They didn't limit themselves to bells and whistles (it could have used some more of them, actually), but focused on designing an amp that sounds great in "real world" situations. Apparently, the "real world" doesn't exist, which is why I put it in quotes for the benefit of amplifier manufacturers, many of whom create amps that sound good in music stores, which are far, far from the "real world". "But I must admit that seeing the GA-70 is surely the greatest proof of Katana's greatest weakness There is so much more going on under the hood of the amp than is accessible through this simple This pedal is beneficial to me because it gives me quick access to four preset channels (called LiveSets by Boss and ignores the panel settings) as well as the panel, which does represent the Each of the five preset options can then be toggled on and off with a push of a button. In other words, it fulfills a lot of needs for its purpose. To really tweak existing presets, you need a computer and USB cable for that. You can create presets from the panel. As far as I know, there are no apps for iOS or Android, and there is no way that can be changed unless someone comes up with some sort of cheat. Finally, I would like to conclude. Considering how little they have to work with, they do quite a bit Those who want to use the channels of their amp when they take the Katana out of the case need to use this pedal. The settings on the panel will do just fine, and you can use the pedals you already own.

Thanks for the great work! It was originally a Boss Katana 100 item
5/5

As it came from Boss I had no need to attach the stickers that came with the Katana for labeling the pedal switch as it came with the Roland. I was glad about that because I didn't have to add the stickers that came with The amp is labeled as Boss, so it looks good with my amplifier. With this amplifier, you'll get a cable that's long enough to connect to the amplifier. If you want to get the most out of the Katana 100 and up, this pedal is a must. This is a great option for changing presets in Using it, you can toggle the effects in your patch on and off. Obviously, the quality of the pedal is very good since it is metal and has As an added feature, you can change the delay on the fly using the tap. Using it, you can jump between each of the four channels presets and turn on and off the sound effects individually. It is possible therefore to run something like a booster, delay, flanger, while having it on multiple gain options, and then able to control each setting independently. Click the panel on the pedal if you want to tweak your knobs on the amp itself. When your Katana pedal is plugged into a PC, you can go even further and get more sounds, presets and effects from the pedal. In order to enhance your Boos katana's performance, I highly recommend this.

The Boss Katana 100, and up, will be very pleased with this item
5/5

A beating definitely won't break her. Together, this and my Katana 100 form a very useful combo. I am a musician who uses a Helix when I perform, so I have used stomp-based channels for years. This is the first thing I put on the floor when I go to jam with my trusty TC Polytune. The construction is extremely robust and well made. With this pedal you can use it with Katana amplifiers, as in the instruction packet, there are stickers that you can stick on this pedal that align The Katana can even be configured to allow easier access to the tap tempo.

Every owner of a Katana needs this
5/5

In fact, this thing is built like a tank, so don't smash it with a hammer if you want it to live to the next generation. With the channel selector, you can either cycle the effects or the fx loop which makes for a great tool to have. When paired with an expression pedal and volume pedal, it makes for a tight set up that can handle anything. A big thanks to boss for making such.

It was built well, but it was expensive
5/5

I don't know how any of these foot switches works with the Boss Katana Head, but this one works flawlessly. The effect switch is necessary if you want to switch effects on and off. Only thing I disagree with is that the price could be lower, but there is no difference in price since everyone sells it for the same price. This thing is a third of The thought of it is a little.

A good time was had by all
3/5

It is your responsibility if you are not aware of this ahead of time. Upon opening the box, the markings, labels, and instructions are incorrect. My Katana 100 came with a set of stickers that you had to stick onto my foot controller to have the proper As an alternative, if you press CH 1, the amp will move A good time was had by all. It is likely that you will get frustrated with Katana amps if you do not know this in advance. It is not unreasonable for Boss and Roland to fix this at the production.

In the pre- This label indicates that the item is intended for use with the Katana 100
5/5

The Katana 100 goes great with this. It was my intention to use the decal provided with the Katana pedal to re-label the pedal, however, I found that the correct labels had already been applied. I have no idea what non- is You will be fine, if you are a Katana owner. It is possible to select up to 8 different presets with the Katana Plus, you have the panel and the pedal combination. Additionally, any of the preloaded effects can be turned on and off using a single button You can choose which panel to tap on, as well as what tempo to tap on. With my Katana, I do not need to set up multiple pedals.
