Boss RE-202 Space Echo

One of the dissappointed who hadd ordered this pre-release and was let down by worldwide stock shortages and a delayed release dates. I gave up eventually. However, I finally got one and am impressed. Influencers often gloss over shortcomings, and a few gripes started coming out as people realised the few quirks that flawed an otherwise gleaming product. The most glaring of these is the functionality of the reverbs. Boss stepped up, and have provided a hefty firmware update, which makes them esier to access, rather than having to reboot and assign just one of the 5 reverbs globally. I was unawre of this update (which is preinstalled in new units), and am really excited. there are other issues addressed such as how the preamp model is applied (globally, true bypass or just the repeats). Also included is a way of adjusting the functionaliry of the WARP switch - I'm going to dial the effect down to a more subtle level. The tap tempo is a bit quirky, but I've going to investigate the hidden setting to make it more intuative (for me) to use. The thing sounds absolutely amazing and is useful in many styles of music. its an inspiration machine, and a credible live tool. I LOVE IT!! looking forward to discovering the expression fuctionality. I havent dabbled with the MiDi side of it yet, but it seems to have all bases covered; just hope its not too complicated!
